    I've put 300+ hrs into DA Inquisition. At this price for the GOTY I only can say this: go get it! (If you're an rpg fan that is)

    Although it is not part of a sale, Star Wars Battlefront Ultimate Edition (includes Game + Season Pass) has been reduced to $40 USD. The Season Pass on it's own costs $50!!?

    I'm tempted by the following deals, although with over 500 games owned and only 190 played, I really shouldn't buy any more shock

    - Batman Arkham Knight Premium $21 CAD ($22.20 NZD) - it normally costs $184 in New Zealand!!!
    - Life is Strange $7 CAD ($7.40 NZD)
    - Minecraft Story Mode Complete $18 USD ($25.70 NZD) - for my daughter
    - Witcher 3 Complete £17.50 ($30.83 NZD)

    If I had to pick one from that list, it would be Witcher 3.

    That's the new price for it, since the retail version of the Ultimate Edition just released two days ago at that price.

    ATTENTION ALL!!!

    Anyone not sure on buying one of these games I suggest plugging it in this site before hand: http://www.storeparser.com/en-US/xbox-one/deals/

    It keeps track off all pricing for that game on xbox live. That way you don't pay more than you you should. I use it religiously before I buy anything on xbox live. Hope it helps you guys!

    sweet. picked up Metro Redux.

    Batman Arkham Knight
    $16 USD
    $79.73 AUS

    Ummmm, where's the deal for those down under? Hello?
    Is it like the seasons? Opposite for each hemisphere? You guys get a deal, and we get screwed?

    If we had price parity $16 USD would be $21.81 AUS
    Now that would be a deal!!

    What's worse? I'm actually in New Zealand, and our dollar is worse than the Aussie dollar (just).

    I'll try not to exaggerate too much here, but IMO Hitman is worth full price right now.
    I love it and fully recommend it. If you're a fan of the series then you know what you're in for and you won't be disappointed.

    So getting it on sale is definitely worth it.

    I see you have done some NZD conversions. But I wonder if you are aware that the prices for games on the NZ Xbox store are not direct conversions from CAD currency. I'm pretty sure Arkham Knight is around $70 - $80 for us...

    Why is NBA 2K17 marked !U! ? Havent read that in the forums and it says nothing about that on the games page on TA? Could it be the glithy story achievments? But I still would not mark it !U!
    NBA 2K17Secret AchievementThe Secret Achievement achievement in NBA 2K17 worth 123 pointsContinue playing to unlock this secret achievement


    Not only has no one on the site unlocked it, but the lack of a rare diamond indicates that no one across the whole Xbox ecosystem has unlocked it either.
    Yeah whats what I thought. That one should be marked on the TA page for NBA 2K17 then, along with this one:

    NBA 2K17Secret AchievementThe Secret Achievement achievement in NBA 2K17 worth 311 pointsContinue playing to unlock this secret achievement


    I'll stay away from the My Career mode until 2K patch it then, still have those bloody Runes from 2K16 to grind anyway...

    Disappointed about ROTTR, thought it would be a much better price with it being out a year. Looks like i'll carry on waiting.

    Buckled and bought Witcher 3 GOTY and Far Cry Primal. Hard to argue with those prices, and unlikely to see them much cheaper elsewhere to be honest. Now into my backlog they go...... just need to make sure I play them before they end up going GWG laugh
    Stoke me a clipper, I'll be back for Christmas... Whatever!

    Similar way of thinking.

    Most of the titles I was interested are way more expensive in Europe than they are in the US.
    Batman Arkham Knight goes for 16$ in the US to 55€ in Europe. Shadow of Mordor from 11 US$ to 22€.

    No deal for me.
    No signature for me, just being down right, old, plain, silly

    As always, it's nearly impossible to find any details on Windows Store games, but from what I can tell, I don't think the sale has started yet. I assume there is no "Gold early access period" for Win 10, and it will start tomorrow, but the retail sales start the 24, so it could be then too.

    I would hardly call a lot of this a "sale" especially a black friday sale when a lot of it should be dirt cheap but isn't.
