    SMITE is F2P MOBA ( the best on XBox if you ask me). That’s a Curious Courier Chang’e skin pack (and is pretty expensive for what you get, imo).

    The only thing for SMITE that should ever be purchased outside of the game itself are Gems (in game currency) or the Ultimate God Pack Bundle (unlocks all the gods, often goes on sale for 50% off).

    At any rate the entry should be moved to DLC or removed.

    As above said this also applies to Overwatch 2. The thing listed is the Watchpoint pack, the game is F2P and any listing should be under DLC.

    I mean Gotham Knights barely came out and is already discounted 40% off. That’s a pretty steep discount. I think we get kind of spoiled with constant great sales. That’s a great discount off a game that came out last month (iirc).

    My son is obsessed with the teenage turtles shredders revenge. Tempted by the cowabunga collection do the other side scrolling beat em ups show their age now? If they are significantly weaker than shedders revenge he probably wont be that bothered.

    I mean they are old, but couldn't hurt to try. Turtles in Time is a gem I think he would like if he likes Shredder's revenge. Also the game collection comes with the save anytime & rewind feature to help if it gets too hard :)

    Literally why I did not purchase day one. I am not THAT interested in the coop experience with conflicting schedules with typical coop partner. Wait a month (not even) and I get it for 40% off. Literally a steal for a game I planned on playing that might as well be brand new.

    Added bonus I have a month of patches to clean up some of those day one issues.
    It's beginning to look a lot like glitchmas, every game I play

    What a lame sale. Nothing I'm interested in. Worst black friday deals ever.
    If you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to ask someone else first, I'm too busy.

    You have Gotham knights listed on Xbox one but it’s not available for Xbox one.

    What I’d like to know is if the gear breakdown/crafting ability that they’ve restricted to the Visionary Pack is necessary (or almost necessary).

    Just says, “Salvage to build new gear” in the description. Could be worthless or could be almost required.

    Yeah, not a great deal on really anything here, though that's not surprising since it's the first time they've been on any type of sale.

    There are. The above list is just the subsection of games that have never been on sale before. All the 360 games have been. There’s 20-30 360 games on sale.

    Last year had worse movie sales for sure. This year I’ll probably spend at least $50 in movies alone. Then I’ll decide if I want to pick up Gotham Knights. Sunless Sea is the other title I’m looking at, $5 is the cheapest it’s been.

    Honestly, I love commandos 2 (not so much commandos 3) but that price is way too high, even when discounted.

    I bought commandos 2 the day of release all those years back and it cost far less.

    I can't help but think that if you are remaking a game as niche as commandos is on console, you should aim for the price to be far less than an AAA game. It isn't like the core concept of the games wasnt there to begin with.

    Hopefully it will drop considerably by Christmas.

    Guess I'll grab Gotham Knights physically then as that's £29.99
