Xbox One Sale Roundup: October 1st, 2019

Holy crappy DLC (and free-to-play/nearly-free-to-play crap)

EDIT: Some decent first-party games in there though (Sunset Overdrive, Hellblade (if it's considered "first-party" now), Recore, Quantum Break, etc.), but I am still yearning for Black Friday sales so I have way more choices AND because I get to hear people complain about it being the same games over and over. I mean, they're partially right, but they're partially wrong.

Random thought: I miss the 1st-half of the 360 generation, when game companies were only just beginning to learn how to rip us off by just withholding part of a game only to tag it as DLC later on to get you to pay more money, compared to current times where everything is bloated with microtransactions.

£214.99 original price for Hitman Season 1 Complete collection! holy s**t

it kind of perturbs me when a pack with the game and dlc goes on sale, but not the dlc individually. Case in point Ryse dlc is in a pack with the digital version of the game, but not the dlc by itself. I really don't want to pay for a digital version of the game twice, and they aren't going to subtract out the pieces i already own (like steam does)

Goldfire64 said:Same thoughts here for Forza Horizon 4, been waiting for the LEGO pack to go on sale since it released and got excited when I seen the bundles were on sale but nope.

If the LEGO pack's anywhere around the same length as Fortune Island then buying it on sale's all it deserves, I felt bummed paying £7.49 for FI with how short it was, would have been furious if I'd paid the whole £14.99.

FH3 Hoonigan Car Pack have never been on sale once. Only in bundles where i already own other DLC.

Well this week is a hard pass. Oh well....back to Shadow of War.

FH4 ultimate version on sale but not pass for it.... Way to disincentivize Game Pass subscribers.

Anyone played Pankapu? Looks like a good enough price I might get it.

Well if you people paid attention to your MS rewards on xbox app, you'd see there's a punchcard for $15 usd(different per country) on MS studio games get 4k MS rewards points.

Uh, Happy Tickets on sale?

Happy Wars servers have been closed in Dec 2018...

Am I missing something or is this a bold move to rip off some money?

YAWN

Really wish that damn Hoonigan Pack for FH3 would go on sale by itself. Only ever seems to be in a bundle

Thinking about Sunset Overdrive, but really just looking for the season pass only. I know that goes on sale for around $6. Already have the game from GwG, but wouldn't mind owning it outright.

Windows sales! Going to nab some Pinball FX3 DLC and Sunset Overdrive I think.

Still waiting for Ethan Carter to go on sale..

If you're not interested in Gamepass then a lot of the prices for Microsoft games are pretty good. Quantum Break and Crackdown 3 being personal favorites.
