    With such a lot of data and my very tired eyes, there may be some errors or omissions. Please let me know if you spot anything in the comments and I'll try and update it ASAP. Enjoy all the discounts! toast

    "These discounts are only available to Gold members until Tuesday 22nd, when they will be opened up to everyone (at a lower discount rate)."

    Please clarify, this could mean on the 22nd everyone will pay more, or it could mean only non-gold members pay more.

    Witcher 3 dlc is a great deal for anyone who does not have it. Life is Strange is really tempting to get for only $6.60. Wish the Rise of the Tomb Raider season pass was on sale. cry

    Now the sales are so big they have to come in parts, like a blockbuster movie :)

    Several deals in here to tempt me.

    Non-Gold members will pay around 10% more - the Gold prices won't change

    XBL Gold members get early access and around a 10% better discount. I don't have Gold, but it is only $1 while these sales run, and you can grab the free GwG as well (although only the 360 games are yours to keep).

    Excellent, thanks! Do you know how long the sale will go on for, and if all titles will be on sale for the entirety of the sale?

    I have a large deposit of reward credits (50k) coming on the 24th and I'd need them deposited before I take advantage of the sale. I got my eye on TitanFall 2 and the ARK DLC to start. :)

    I'm confused as well.
    But I have to jump on both Wolfensteins at $6.60 a piece. clap

    Just a heads-up, almost every game on there is available for cheaper in physical form via other retailers this Black Friday. And considering you can buy them online and have them delivered, these are pretty crumby deals.

    Think it's worth it to pick up those DOOM DLC's? I'm annoyed that I lost my completion, and it's a little tempting to pick those up now that they're on sale.

    I have gold, that's not why I'm waiting. Also, the GWG are only available to you to play as long as you have an active gold subscription, if your subscription lapses so does your ability to play the games.

    Possibly where you are, but we don't really do black Friday up here, definately not to the extent you guys do. And buying online rarely ships international for free, and that's assuming international customers have access to the product at all (eg. what I can get off amazon is vastly different from what someone from the US can get). And seeing as I'll have about $60 credit with the store to spend (which I can't do anywhere else) and add to that the fact that I'll likely get 6% back from any purchases made on the xbox store the deal looks pretty good to me.

    It ends on the 28th

    I've adjusted the wording to make it clearer. Basically if you're Gold you get these discounts all the way from now to the 28th. If you're Silver you have to wait until Tuesday and the discount will be lower.

    Does Forza 6 VIP help with completing anything in the game?

    Also, wasn't SR4 at $4 last night? Pretty sure that's what I bought it at.

    That does not apply to Xbox 360 and backward compatibility on Xbox One. They are yours to keep.

    Was 80% off yesterday, but they reduced the wrong game, so they corrected it to 75%.
