1600 Points for Awakening, don’t you mean 2400? To bad this isn’t a retail store or I’d say give it to me at the advertised price.

Nevermind, when I clicked the link it showed 2400 points, but when I logged into xbox.com it was 1600. Bought!

Good to see the Awakening download is cheaper than previously projected, now it’s equal to £13.60 in real money. Although the disc is still cheaper, the difference is now miniscule.
–
DLC deals are a whole load of meh and the avatar shirt is a ripoff because it still has a price.
–
Now Major, can you clarify something for us? Do we still get a DotW on the week beginning August 16th?
Because if we’re now getting meh deals lasting two weeks before a new one then that’s a new low, but if we’re getting new deals every week that last two weeks then that’s a step in the right direction.

I managed to get a dirt cheap retail copy of Awakening last week, and it’s great. I will be picking up Return to Ostagar & Warden’s Keep when the marketplace is updated with the DotW prices.

@PIMD It is definitely 1600, take a look at the MP. Maybe they actually took on board that 2400 was still a crap price.

I already bought it on-disc but had I known it would have been 1600 in advance then I’d have been more likely to consider the convenience of Awakening in download form…

…and then bought the disc anyway.

Awakenings has now tempted me at this price. Worth it guys or? I’ll also get the T-shirt, already have the others.

@Lavindathar Either get the download or buy this: http://www.thehut.com/games/platforms/xbox-360/dragon-age-origins-awakening/10080034.html
Also if you have 5000 points or more on http://www.justeat.co.uk then you can convert them into a £2 voucher.

So instead of deal of the Week, we have deal of the rest of Summer? If this is so, way to go ruin Summer jackasses.

Very COOL price. I’ll definitely buy everything but the shirt.
Here the game is still 40 Euro. Cheapest price I found was the one on the Hut. 17 Euro but the game is english only (I have no problems with it but I don’t know if saves are recognised and… Come on, I can’t play a game half italian and the other half english. :D).
1600 MS Points for the price I bought my last card are equal to anbout 13 Euro.

So:
40 Euro Italian Retail
20-25 Euro PreOwned Italian Retail (if Lucky to find it… No lucky for now!)
17 Euro UK Retail without my native language
13 Euro DLC

Sounds pretty to me.

What’s so special about Dragon Age that it warrants a two week Deal of the “Week”?

Any idea when the price on the T-shirt will change? I see the others have, but the t-shirt is still at the normal price.

how come there’s no deal for next week, is the other Dragon Age DLC going to be discounted also?

Awakening has had an MSRP drop to $30 US for the disk. It looks like EA has carried that over to the digital version, and now this sale is still $10 off, but $10 off the new price so the sale price is $20.

$20 is the perfect price for Awakening. You’ll get 15-20 hours of gameplay and up to 250 gamerscore with this download (it requires 2 playthroughs as you have a choice at the end and can only get 1 of 2 achievements per playthrough.)

Tweeted MN to see if it was a bug, but no reply. He did post a funny article about a man quitting his job though. Which is nice.

It’s good to see that the marketing dept got wise and dropped the Awakening deal price further below the current market price. I was planning on passing on this deal and getting the disc version instead since they were the same price, but now that this is $10 cheaper, I’m sold! I’ll also get this other DLC I’ve been holding out on too. Any chance we can get some deals on the rest of the DLC anytime soon?
