        We also had 2 weeks of CoD Sales and now it just got a permanent price drop to $39.99 lol..(which makes the two weeks sale pointless)but hey why not GTA 4 DLC Sale again? lol Or RDR, Fallout, Boderlands 1 and so on…

        How does a permanent price drop now make a previous sale pointless? That is basic economics 101 my friend. Happens to everything all the time. Unless the demand is high for something and the supply is low like crude oil for instance.

    1 USD$ is worth more than 1 Euro£, because the exchange rates are always changing, it would be difficult for MS to change the prices to match all the time, also, retailers prices are also inflexible as well. While it may not be the fairest system, it is probably the easiest to just put the prices higher to keep them stable, this way, both retailer and M$ can still make profit without constantly fluctuating the prices.

    Is there a chance of a season pass sale at all since it’s a XBL reward this month?

    Like

    • ImTheMetalLord

      My guess is 0% chance. They don’t put things on sale then give you a reward for them. That’s a lose/lose endeavor for MS.

      Like

      • CISphil

        Not necessarily. A small discount on some season passes towards the end of the deal may spark more interest. But I get what you’re saying.

      For the pleasure of the exercise (and gently facilitating the work of the department in charge of the “player’s feedbacks”), why not offering different games that have never (some almost) been on sale:
      – Lucidity
      – Sherlock Holmes (both games)
      And “Family games” that have never been on sale too:
      – Toy Story Mania, Kung Fu Panda, Legend of Spyro, Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, Madagascar 3, and more… (you surely know some others). Let’s think to kids too.

        Sorry to have left the subject.
        But let’s see things simply; you are bot right.
        It seems unusual to say it recently, but Call of Duty have many qualities, and in a very different way, Spyro, Sonic and Lego games are quality games too.
        And for the last ones, with respect, may I precise “they are for kids and nobody needs them”, except, precisely… kids !
        And some more “light” players too.
        I know several; both are in my surounding, and rarely I find a game on sale for them.
        Ps. I know, some would say I should be on an other console for this..(smile) But I think there are good ones on Xbox, only less put forward.

Im sorry if I offended you and being so straight forward. :))

        You are right about the fact that a “kid games sale” could be received with less enthousiasm than a new Call of Duty one, but who knows.. Maybe the amateurs of this kind do not dare to reveal here ?😉

        About the two first, I have yet to know about the qualities of those games. I never played Sherlock Holmes and only a bit of Lucidity. So I will take your word about it.
        But I just tried to mention that there are many “less popular” games that can be interesting for players that like discovery, investigation or humorous games. Maybe you could remember other titles (for example, I found Lucha Fury interesting for two-players, but it was erased).

        Not saying those other games aren’t decent, but you don’t have to lock down your choices. Mortal kombat is pretty good, never played dirt so I won’t judge it.

        Here are some good fighting games for Xbox:
        – *Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and *Marvel vs Capcom 2
        – Dragonball Z: Budokai HD Collection
        – SoulCalibur Series (4 is probably my highest recommendation)

        Here are some good racing games for Xbox:
        – Sonic and Sega Racing Transformed (alot like Mario Kart)
        – Any of the **Forza Motorsport Games and Forza Horizon

        *Unfortunately UMvC3 and MvC2 are no longer available on Demand/Arcade, would recommend picking up UMvC3 (Not MvC3) though if you get the chance, however MvC: Origins(want) is.

        **Forza Horizon is the only Forza on demand

    Anyone familiar with the Penny Arcade games? There are 2 arcade games and 2 indie games in the series. I think I’d like to finally pick them up if they go on sale (serious request here). The Sam and Max games are $20 each. They deserve a price cut. The demos were funny, and I bet the full games are good. I’m unsure of Wallace and Gromit. I don’t know if I’ll like their type of humor. There are 4 games in the series that I can find. I see that the demos are available, but there’s no option to purchase.

      I just did a search on Wallace and Gromit. The games were delisted in January 2014. They’re gone forever from the 360, it seems, but still available for download from your purchase history.

        Your suggestions are good, and are amidst those less popular but interesting games. For Wallace & Gromit, it is unfortunate, since it is an interesting serie, as films as much as games.
        Before to “delist” these games we would appreciate a last occasion (sale for example) to acquire them (Lucha Fury was another that disapeared and never have been on sale).
