    Interesting that all the Gears 5 packs are on sale right after discontinuing iron sales in game. Everything in those bundles is effectively free and significantly easier to acquire than ever.
    You can still buy Iron.

    Very nice, actually buying a game for once! Beholder Complete Edition for $3 is a solid steal. Thought about running through it when it was leaving game pass, but figured I'd buy it and play it on my own time after I saw the sale history.

    Oh NOW they put Nights on sale! I already bought it a few weeks ago cause I saw it's been ages since it was last on sale so I wasn't expecting another any time soon.

    While checking out the list, I had to actually scroll back to the top to check the date, to make sure it wasn't an old sales page that I accidentally clicked on.
    I did the exact thing. No one else had posted yet, and I thought "this has to be a mistake." I checked the top, and it said "Just now" but I thought I'll still wait until someone comments to be sure.

    Now, I'm curious how much non-back-compatible DLC might be available, as TA usually doesn't report that.
    Download the app XB Deals. It is laid out clearly and there is a separate tab for DLC sales.

    Currently the only X360 DLC is:
    Street Fight IV - Ultra SFIV £11.99 £2.39
    Capcom Arcade Cabinet - CAC All-in-one pack. £16.99 £3.39
    Far Cry 3 Deluxe Bundle £6.79 £2.71
    Fallout New Vegas - Dead Money £3.99 £1.99
    Fallout New Vegas - Honest Hearts £3.99 £1.99
    Fallout New Vegas - Lonesome Road £3.99 £1.99
    I tried the app just now. It seems to only have the option for Xbox 0ne and X/S.

    Just a heads up - there are more 360 games on sale. I grabbed The Outfit, Red Dead Revolver, F.E.A.R. 2, and they were all discounted, even though they don't show in the list for me.
    Thanks for the heads up. I can't do X1 so I rely on the 360 sales and TA rarely seems to report them all anymore :(

    Also on that topic with TA..... the "sale" on Bloodforge doesn't seem right? Aren't sales supposed to make them cheaper? TA is claiming the game is $14.99 USD on sale, down from $9.99 USD? Shouldn't that be the other way around? LoL

    If I buy Gunvalkyrie, can I still play on my 360? I will probably get it anyway, but would like the option. It is currently delisted on the 360 marketplace store, but would it still appear in my download history?
    I think you will not be able to play it on Xbox 360. A few weeks ago I bought the game Dead or Alive 4 in the Xbox One store since it is removed from the Xbox 360 store, and when I try to download it on the xbox 360 from the download history, it appears as unavailable content.

    Oops. I meant purchase of Boost has been disabled, since everyday is now a free boost day and that boost is doubled. So 4x instead 2x.

    But yeah, not iron. Boost.

    Props for this heads up. I’ve been wanting to buy FEAR 2 on digital so I can double or triple box it.

    How is legal to even sell games like "Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare" anymore.
    The game is 100% dead. Months ago I say in lobbies for HOURS and never ran into a single other players. I got one achievement when it came out and went back to finish grab a few more. It's dead. Maybe it's server/region locked and just no one plays it in my area.

    ( I don't really think it is should "illegal". It's just crappy. Server Region locking is worse. I bought the disc version of BattleBorn at launch and it was reagion locked to Japan. Not even asia. JAPAN! And at launch, I was the only one seemingly in all of Japan with the game and could not play it. And of course since I had the disc version could not get a refund unless I wanted to spend 20$ mailing it back to the USA. I got so mad at 2K and Gearbox with their responses to me saying Oh well. You just can't play it. I threw it out the window and it probably still sitting in a rice patty out there)
    Chill out bro. Be nicer to each other.

    Friday The 13th for $3.74 is amazing, bought that just because it's so cheap. I really, REALLY want to play Blightbound but it seems like a bunch of achievements are tied to co-op, and it's not likely many people are playing that game. Anyone who played it here can offer some insight?

    I just noticed that TimeSplitters 2, Future Perfect, Gun Valkyrie and the OGX Splinter Cell games are giftable!

    Unless the pandemic wipes out the player base. I finished the game last July and there were always plenty of people online except in a few modes like gnome bomb and taco.
