Xbox One Sale Roundup: February 4th, 2020

I thought the Dead Island Definitive Collection was a pretty good deal at $7.49 for 3 games. I also don't have most of the games in any of my platforms so that is always a plus.

EYEHUNTER 42 said:Agents of Mayhem sounds like a good deal but I am thinking it will be given away on Games with Gold soon.

Let's Sing 2020:

Curiously, the French stack is discounted as well:

But the German is not:

Might be an oversight as the Platinum Versions of both are on discount
(who cares/no cheevos/still more than the base game).

ThexDaftxPunk said:I agree. I bought this a while back and played a little bit of it. I put it on hold to get rid of some of my backlog, but the time and effort the developers have put into the game to make it playable is very commendable. All achievements fixed, numerous bugs fixed. I hear it's still not perfect, but now very playable and the developers never gave up on it, unlike some others.... I will eventually get round to playing it. And that price is super.

Sadley dont see anything that catches my eye I know a few games on there that do but I think they are on game pass so I will pass for right now.

Hellgate Aeon said:lol i was gonna do the same since its cheap

saturnsailor said:I was hoping it would be my 300K GS game, but it's not happening now. I wish I lived where you are then! I haven't seen it under $60

FireDrake007 said:actually thats 2 games and a "game" nobody needs anyway... i always liked them. that price is killer

x Mataeus x said:Oh Really!? I Will Give It a Shot On Xbox, If I Really Enjoy it I'll hop on PC as well!

FireDrake007 said:but then it will be the core game without the dlc...

Hellgate Aeon said:Interestingly the original Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide are both on sale on the Xbox 360 for $4.49 each and those don't include the dlcs. Buying the Definitive Edition collection with 3 games for Xbox One with all dlcs included at $7.49 is a much better deal.

Hellgate Aeon said:Possibly but several Definitive Edition games that included dlcs have appeared on Games with Gold as well. I can afford to wait and get the season pass later if only the base game was offered. It will be placed on my backlog anyways even if I bought it today.

HappyTheDevil said:Sorry to hear you don't get deals like that but at least you know how to time your next visit here. I'm in no hurry to get "Sekiro" myself, I get enough stress on daily basis without such an additional load of excruciating punishment. It would be nice if you could crown this milestone of yours with such a game, to be sure. You must have the reflexes of Bruce Lee if you're willing to take on this game. Maybe it will come to GamePass?

Anyone make a quick completion list, yet?

I was going to buy those Realms games but glad I watched a Let’s Play first. They look so terrible. Can’t believe they are selling those for $40 at full price.

saturnsailor said:I do get deals like that, it's just never the games I want
I know very little about Sekiro, and I want to keep it that way until I play it. I have enjoyed every FromSoftware game I have played so far. Gamepass would be great, but I'd still want to buy it so I can play it whenever I want.

HappyTheDevil said:I like your spoiler-avoiding approach. I also like to support games on GamePass that strike my fancy like "Agents of Mayhem" in this sale. I've spent more money on games that didn't deserve it. I own most of FromSoftware games but they happen to be sitting at the very bottom of the backlog. Maybe one day I'll develop a taste for them and I'll breeze through Sekiro while reading the morning newspaper.

SnipedByAGir1 said:The Realms games were cutting edge in the nineties. I believe the remakes cater only to the nostalgia crowd--those that played the original Sir Tech games & aficionados of Das Schwarze Auge (The Dark Eye (literally Black Eye)) table top RPG system.

saturnsailor said:I'm glad I got out of the habit of buying everything on release! One thought of my horrendous backlog that will take years to overcome is enough to save A LOT of money FromSoft games are all about patience and learning enemy patterns. Once you've picked up on that rhythm there is no need for a newspaper as you'll be able to do it in your sleep!
