Xbox sale round-up August 30th, 2022

TwistedTB said:Right?! He was a legend! I hope he sees this thread and knows how much his hard work was appreciated.

Finally that SAO base game goes on sale and for a pretty decent price too

DLC packs can be so weird. I can get Cities Skylines DLC Campus and Sunset Harbour in one pack, but it costs 30% than just getting them seperate in this sale. Like…obviously it should be the same price or less. Just weird. Been waiting a bit for these to go on sale though, so will take a look.

Yay for Aery Vikings.

And that is it for this week, and happy about that.

Nearly everybody is underappreciated in this world for doing nice things.

Spirochaete said:FWIW I used to post one paragraph mini reviews of the games I’d played in the cheap, fast completions on sale threads and people did occasionally make it a point to thank me. Stuff usually isn’t entirely thankless, but sometimes life just gets busy and people drop things.

The Cherished said:Don't want to drop their name/tag directly here, but the old sales threads are still in the forum.
Like this one for instance: Xbox sale round-up: October 12th, 2021

MightySleigher said:At that point you might as well share the name lol, I don't think "call outs" are a bad thing when it's in a positive light

Finally all 360 dlcs i was waiting for...

Oh damn the Terminator game actually on sale? I’d heard it was surprisingly good and had an eye out ever since.

TwistedTB said:Maybe a better question, is there still non-BC stuff on sale?

Elyoh said:Yes! But you must first travel to the 2nd star to the right and straight on till morning.....

(haha but yeah, now and then I see some stuff. TA doesn't always pick it up at all or they pick it up late though).

緑眼のイアン said:It's a GREAT week to be an Aliens and Terminator fan!

So...for Resistance...the load times are eternal, the base difficulty is a total cakewalk, the budget is loooow, and the voice acting is mid nineties Resident Evil caliber. If you can see past all that..
It's a solid Metro/Fallout type post apocalyptic stealth action hybrid. It's better than any movie released since t2 and only acknowledges the first two movies as canon. I played it on the hardest difficulty for about 80% of it and was loving how hard it was to kill the T-800's. It got to be a bit much in the action-only segments, but you can adjust it as you go with no penalty to achievements (which are all pretty easy if you follow a guide).

I loved it. Plus...the Terminator theme is pretty much playing every ten minutes in some shape or form.

Great to hear, had my eye on that Terminator game for a while. I'm getting it now it's on sale.

Loch Doun said:Glad it's not just me who has been waiting forever for these!!

atryeu1 said:I'm in the Southern hemisphere, is that your right or mine?

atryeu1 said:Good to know, I shall keep an eye out.

Elyoh said:LoL Nice come back for that :P I'm guessing North though because the story took place in London I believe :D

Awhile back they had Dust on sale but they didn't pick it up until nearly the end of the week. There have been a few others showing up on sale that were not picked up at all for some reason. Sometimes people post on the forums when there are sneaky things hiding in the sale that don't get listed for whatever reason and that's usually how I find out.

The Cherished said:Yeah, then we'd know how many to avoid.

At least SH HD Collection isn't on sale again...

And it seems like Call of Cthulhu is on sale almost every week.?

Green Hell any good?

On ta it says Sword art online fatal bullet is £6.99 but when I checked Microsoft store it says it's £34.99 it's not listed in this sale either only the second game is.
