The orange box for 3.74 must be deal of the decade

Give us a chance man. There's 275+.

Updated list. Now up to 167 titles.

Cold, list not in ascending price order.

Some great games there.

Remember you can only use Xbox account credit if you purchase on a 360 console

Nice, thank you! :smiley:

Ikaruga for under 2 quid :smiley:

Ikaruga is a steal at £1.68

Some great games there.

Remember you can only use Xbox account credit if you purchase on a 360 console

About using CD Keys, I believe that Xbox Live credit cannot be used to purchase Xbox 360 games.

Thank you, have been waiting for a deal on L4D1/2.

Was hoping for a good price on 'Catherine'. I already have most of the stuff worth having here, will pick up Double Dragon Neon though.

Portal 2 - £3.74. Outstanding.

Orange Box may be worth it as well - 96% on Metacritic. How active is TF2 on Xbox though?

The orange box for 3.74 must be deal of the decade

Rage from Breaking Bad, gave Jessie nightmares so I do recommend it. Ghostbusters and Red Dead Redemption will do for me. Thanks.

Nice, was waiting for Fable 3 as just got an XBox One

Cold, list not in ascending price order.

There's even more on the store...

Went for Ikaruga and Metal Slug. Great prices

Heat for this list Buzz. Current CDKeys 5% code - KDIK3ASDJ

I'm replacing all my Disney and Lego games with digital versions and trading the games in at Grainger games towards xbox live credit, should make a tidy profit.

Heated for 'Alice: Madness Returns', one of my favourite games of all time!

Be great if folks could list what they feel are the best games on this list. I have no idea what my son might like and for a few quid I can always just give it a try.

Thanks for anyone's efforts :smiley:

Bomberman Battlefest is £1.68!

You're missing a couple, I think, notably NBA Jam: On Fire Edition for £2.63!

Orange Box £3.74 cant see it in your list buzz :P

I'm gonna end up spending lots of money... Thanks Buzz :wink:

Discount only works once.

Thanks! I grabbed Fable 3 and also Burnout Paradise (not on the list but is £4.94, might be a normal price now?) because I was an idiot and forgot to download it on GWG back in December. Heat!

Nice post op

King of fighters for me :-)

The orange Box "unavailable" :disappointed:

How active are the servers for Black Ops 2 since it was made backwards compatible?

Call Of Juarez Gunslinger - £2.49

Orange Box, KoF2002 and Torchlight for me :smiley:

I think these migh the highlights to be be what most people should look that I have left out the obvious ones like COD and RDR.

Blue Dragon - £3.74
Bully Scholarship Ed. - £5.99
Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night - £1.68
Fable II - £3.74
Gears Of War 3 - £3.74
Left 4 Dead 2 - £.3.74
Lost Odyssey - £4.99
Mass Effect - £3.74 although it hasn't aged too well.
Oblivion - £3.95 I'm Tempted for this so I don't have to use a disc, so I still wont play it.
Portal 2 - £3.74
Rage - £3.95
The Orange Box - £3.74

Everyone get Shadowrun, it's a steal at that price. I can finally retire my disc copy now :smiley:

Heat Buzz... superb effort...

Alice: Madness Returns - £3.74
Ghostbusters - £2.99
Left 4 Dead - £3.74
Left 4 Dead 2 - £.374
Lego Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Video Game - £2.24
Monkey Island: SE - £1.99
Portal 2 - £3.74
Red Faction: Battlegrounds - £1.68

those are the ones I will buy so far....

It doesn't let you purchase Portal 2 through the Xbox One.

And Bomberman of course :wink:

I think that's everything guys, although there's only 274 in the list. So I think I may have missed a couple. Feel free to let me know :smiley:

Finally, I will pick up a copy of Shadow Complex!

most are fantastic bargains, the only ones that really aren't are the activison games, bur thats no surprise

** Apparently Xbox Live Credit doesn't work with 360 titles on the store, so be careful ordering from CDKeys if this sale is your reason for purchasing it!

You can buy them using the 360 itself, thankfully mine is still plugged in.

Catherine for 84p. What!? STEAL!!!!

....and Ikagura, best available bullethell shooter.

Didn't realise LEGO Indy had gone BC... Time to dig out the disc!!!

Tempted by Bully, LEGO Pirates & Doom/Doom II

I just looked and couldn't see it??? Also Ikaruga isn't a bullet hell come on. Guwange is the only bullet hell shooter on this list. Ika is danmaku for beginners.

Half Minute Hero: Neo Climax Edition - £1.68 is a cracking price. Pretty rare game on PSP too.

heat for effort. Black ops 2 is a **** take! :-?

Im seeing that too buzz may not of updated yet but will be £3.74 when the 75% taken off, has been £2.24 before now though

There are Hundreds of BC games on sale. see the 1st 7 pages of this link on
storeparser

That's dollars the gbp is over a tenner

Can't use Xbox credit though right?

what this list needs is a Metacritic score column :wink:

Now price order please buzz :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah it's £15 in the UK, not even included. Suppose they could add it later.

Still no use I have €45 from France region.

I'm going to be spending SO much money on this sale... *sigh* Fortunately, I'm not a Steam hoarder...

if you haven't bought stick of truth and are a south park fan please buy it, it's the best game on this list!

Crikey! Nearly bought NBA Jam for £7.50 yesterday. :smiley:

Tesco ebay site is still flogging grade C XB1's for £150 and better condition ones for £20 more (some with a game) in case anybody needs one.

Ikaruga, Castle Crashers, NBA Jam and Orange Box for me. Might have to smash in Left 4 Dead too. Any more for any more, kids?

Portal 2 and Fable 2 thanks for the list Buzz :smiley:

Also a quick note to add, the Fable DLCs are free for both 2 and 3 if you search in the store.

I have just bought way too many and I still want more.. madness...

so good prices though..

Just bought The Orange Box (all of which I already own on Steam...) and Portal 2. Thank you / damn you HUKD...

Thanks OP!

I'm going to pick up a few, I really feel like picking up Earthworm Jim for 1.68!

Cold

:man:

does anyone know if you need xbox live gold to get these deals

Blah, nothing jumping out at me that I haven't already got on disc. Might finally pick up Shadow Complex though. Thanks OP!

Some awesome deals there, heat added for most prices and superb effort.

Have to say Call Of Duty: Black Ops - £12.49/Call Of Duty: Black Ops II - £15.99 are overpriced though.

Catherine is coming up at £14.99 for me?!

I don't have gold and they're coming up for me.

It would have been nice to have some of the associated dlc pricing aswell in this sale proportional to the base games selling price like left 4 dead 2 is £3.74 for game but the DLC is £4.69 each!!

If you are a retro gamer like me, Midway Arcade Origins (30 games for £7.49) is a no brainer.

Already heated. Keep coming my friend.... :smiley:

Did anyone play Cars 2?, Ahhhhhh the memories :innocent: . Definitely buying that when I get home

Ghostbusters and Left for Dead 1 and 2, all for under £12, sorted, and not bad that i grabbed £15 in credit for £11.77 during the week from CDkeys sale. HA

One of the finest games of all time

Stupid Xbox 360 won't let me download any games, no such license and other errors. Stupid cdkeys purchase didn't work out as well as I had hoped.
Stupid Bill Gates. Fix it before I dish it out.

Might & magic Clash of Heroes is a great game

Garou Mark of Wolves and Samurai Showdown 2 for me!

Ohh yeeeeah! Left 4 Dead 1 & 2, NBA Jam and Portal 2 for me! Just a bummer I can't use my credit on the Xone store or the website though, as I have £20 on there -_- :P

if i buy credit from CDKeys can i use it to buy these games though the website?

bought the orange box thanks

Anyone know if Dead Space 2 & 3 will be heading into the Ea vault anytime soon?

blue Dragon is an absolute steal for £3.74. My hubby had it so long on disc and sold it last year so hes ecstatic!!!! :wink:

This was on offer recently for a couple of quid. Bought it but haven't played yet. Apparently it's good.

This was on offer recently for a couple of quid. Bought it but haven't played yet. Apparently it's good.

This was on offer recently for a couple of pounds. Bought it but haven't played yet. Apparently it's good.

cdkeys facebook code never works, will just buy direct from MS instead

excellent work. would of gotten deus ex if it was the directors cut. mass effect tho, I'm all over it!

I would contact MS as soon as, i had no issues spending CDkeys credit and buying the games via the 360 console, so something is up somewhere.

What 3 should I pick?

Guwange at £1.68 as well.

This was on offer recently for a couple of pounds. Bought it but haven't played yet. Apparently it's good.

Timeshift £9.99 lol. I'll be buying Sam and Max for £1.99 :smiley:

It was yeah, but I don't have gold. Was hoping for the same price for non-gold members here.

Woah. That's 273 games for £833.98.
Give or take £3 a game!
Thanks for the list OP :laughing:

Different publishers sadly, I've only ever seen it go on sale over here twice myself!

Shame, don't suppose it'll be added then, Still, suppose if I buy it on disc ad play it through I'll probably get my money back. It's holding it's price well enough.

Now on 334 digital games! Wow i never had this much with my 360 & that was flashed.

Went for NBA Jam and Oddworld New and Tasty (£4.95)...

Anyone know when the sale ends?

Discounts are valid now through 22 May 2017.

Hmm take the 3 and discard it as it's a magic number so then 7 minus 4 = 3

HL3 confirmed.

Thanks.

All sorted now, left the box off for a bit and when switched it back on and tried, it worked fine. Thanks for the helpful reply, have a great day.

Ikaruga - £1.68

Enough said. Hot :smiley:

Just bought lost odyssey and blue dragon on disc, if they're not gonna take up lots of space might just get them digital!

are there any kinect games?

Castle Crashers and Trine 2 for me as I can play these with my wife and daughter

Mars: War Logs is a hugely underrated RPG in my opinion.
Well worth the paltry £1.68 that it's listed at

Like a poor mans Mass Effect

Heat!

Now...how best to make full use of this £10.00 credit...

How did you pay for these using Xbox credit, was it via a 360 console?

It's cheaper at CEX on physical. £2.50 vs £3.74. Having said that a lot of the games on demand are cheaper on physical at CEX. There's some exceptions for the rarer titles such as Alice Madness Returns and Bully so it's worth having a look to see what's worth buying.

The only COD game I dont own WAW is still £9.99. Am I missing something when all the others have dropped in price?

Physical is so old hat. Just can't be bothered with it anymore so digital all the way

fancy an arcade Golf game for a quick blast - is "Golf -Tee it up" the best here?

I got mine from HMV for £5. I'd shop around for a disc.

Just to give everyone some insight, if you want to buy and DLC game for Xbox 360 on your Xbox one you can use your credit by booting up the game such as Black Ops 2 and buying it through the in-game store. It only works for games which you can buy dlc through the 360 interface though.

No you could have saved an extra 60p if you had not been so trigger happy and impatient!

Lmao! :wink:

Last time Catherine was on sale, it took a couple of days before the price was reduced in Europe (or outside the US?). Maybe worth checking again later.

Yes.

Your endorsement has convinced me to get it.

Cheers.

Be careful, he also rates The Order 1886, but that could well be down to its likeness to a movie :smirk:

Just grabbed another £10 of credit from CDkeys for £7.78, a few more of those arcade games i want to get while they are down, i don't think we will see prices like this again for some time, grab them while they are hot.

You need to purchase this game through the website...
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/store/p/the-orange-box/bshpn3sz2tb4

I really want Order 1886! ha... just waiting for the blackwater edition to get silly cheap again...

I have spent way way way too much today and the bank statement will look shocking for the Mrs... why cant we just whack it all in the basket and buy at the end, had to buy each one separately and I think I have bought at least 15 now... for a couple of quid lots of them are worth grabbing to be honest!

Nobody will ever understand our struggle, will they? :smile:

Another that needs to be purchased through the website...
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/store/p/portal-2/bt2b17v20d1p

Far Cry 3 £7.99 yes please.

I've got a mate who raved about it when it came out. I watched him play some but it seemed a bit janky... Still £1.68. Less than a coffee!

Loads of these games I want so it probably makes more sense to wait for the Xbox Games Pass, this may be close to the exact list! :sunglasses:

Lame, you can't use xbox credit for buying these, at least not that I can tell? Tried the website, and through the console. (Xbox One).

Indeed they won't....

first world problems ha.

Bill Gates! :laughing::laughing::laughing:

any games on the list anyone can reccomend that are good lower key titles?

First world issues :smile:

Don't lie :smirk:

loved Shadowrun. Does anyone still play it though?

any kart racing games on there?

GUNstar heroes - heat!

a lot of these games are or have been a lot cheaper than these, Game are currently selling around 20 of these about half the price.

They are also selling a lot of these for a lot more...

I have bought a lot of physical BC games in last few months and there really are some good deals here... shopping around is always key...

Things like Ghostbusters have a high price point still in most places.

Borderlands you can get cheaper in physical for sure.

Haven't seen anyone mentioning RAGE. Looks quite interesting to me. Is this worth buying, as I haven't played it yet? Cheers.

dis post on the Alan wake deal but no takers by the looks of it ... so I'm just place this here

Xbox one digital download code for Alan wake +the signal DLC and the writer DLC: M4P67-DX642-2FPCD-H6XW9-CFKXZ ENJOY WHO EVER GETS IT FIRST

Hi, Firstly - thanks for the original poster (and several others for Xbox recently) - I've very new to XBox so please forgive me for the simple question.

Are you saying if I load up a 360 game on xbox one - you can navigate from it's "Download Extras Menu" to the xbox 360 store and buy these games (like Left 4 Dead for example) using credit on your account. - or are you just saying you can use credit on your account to only buy the content for the came you loaded?

Thanks

Great effort in the listing. Thanks for the heads up :smile:

It's decent enough. Solid mechanically, but ends very abruptly. It's sort of like Fallout with the heavy RPG stuff removed.

a few of these were free with Gold membership

and ....?

What's the cd keys Facebook code?

Is Stuntman Ignition like the original?

okay reading through comments im confused. can i buy the credit from cdkeys and use it to buy things via xbox 360 or does it not work for xbox 360 games?

dont fancy buying a bunch of credit and it going to waste

Heat! :smile: Gameshare with my brother. **** is about to go down.

You can use credit via x360 console only.

Yes, i redeemed my cdkeys codes via the W10 xbox app, then jumped onto the xbox 360, bought the games and they appear on your xb1 bc list.

You will have to take note of what you want though as the sale is not advertised on the 360, but just go to games, browse, and select arcade or on demand, and you will find what you want.

fantastic effort spent on typing all of this. thank you and have some heat!

Bought Toy Story 3 it's fantastic

*Theres something strange in ya neighbourhood... for 2.99 call Ghostbusters!*

Just picked up the free Alan Wake DLC's before they get removed permanently, think I''ll grab American Nightmare for £1.68 as well, plenty of bargains to be had here, Ghostbusters for £3 looks tempting.

CEX are giving £9 cash for BO2, and you can buy it here on sale for £7.45, making you £1.55 on the deal. :wink:

I'm tempted to purchase an Xbox One just to access this huge catalogue of games... :laughing:

I recall completing it. A lot of game for the money.

Monster hot

I was playing it earlier on my 360. Theres nearly 100,000 on sometimes!

Is xbox one backwards compatible if you have the hard copy of these games still?

Yes put disc in Xbox one

Space Giraffe is a great game if you like shooters, and a bargain at 84p :smiley:

Don't think Castle Crashers is in the sale :disappointed:

oops I bought £10 worth of credit which I've added via my XB1. I no longer have a 360. Any ways I can use this?

I feel Sick 15.99, and I wouldn't have had to use the Damn Disc

I've just bought plants vs zombies and now trying to play it, its signing me out of Xbox live and says the profile I have can't be used on this console. Anyone any ideas what this might be? I'm using an Xbox one. Thanks.

Not without a 360 sorry mate

You can buy xbox one games, just can't buy 360 games :smiley: I'm sure it wont be a waste

ah man - thanks though - have an old 360 but no controller - maybe i'll borrow one.

Surely this is FORWARDS compatibilty? The 360 preceded the xbox one!
lol/troll

Do people still play this, I used to play it religiously before Halo 3 came out. Definitely one of the most underrated 360 games. Still have my disc copy but I've picked up the digital version. Hopefully get a few games in this weekend.

would be good to have a metacritic score for all of these to sort the wheat from the chaff... if anyone is bored and has some free time and wants to put one together *optimism*

Are these digital or hard copy?

Deals with Gold currently has Fru at £6 and Commander Cherry for £1.60. Fru is one of the best Kinect games and really recommend it.

Can't use Xbox credit to buy Xbox 360 games, asks for credit card or PayPal

Anyone want to go 50/50 on BO2? Really not keen on paying £15 for that old a game.

Another game that needs to be purchased through the website...
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/store/p/castle-crashers/bwjnwbb7mcft

Also there is a remastered version which you sometimes see on sale...
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/store/p/castle-crashers-remastered/c10gwtnnnbz8

lol forgot about that :smiley:

picked up a few that are region free on my 360s Hungarian account as I had a bit of money left on my revolut card.
far cry 3 £3.32
the Orange box £2.08
portal 2 £2.08
rage £1.83

will be picking up black ops 2 and Catherine from the UK store later on.

Catherine is still expensive.

yeah I've just checked and its showing as £14.99, was it not meant to be on sale?

Previous post have said it might go down. When I checked the other day it was 30 quid. So doubt it. It's a scam the US get for 4.99.

does anyone know if rage has the dlc included?

Thanks! Can you play the regular version on Xbox One? Or do you have to own the 'remastered' version?

I got Ghost Busters, Shadow of the Damned, Portal 2 and Alice Madness. Most of the others like Red Dead Sainsburys (goty). GTA IV left for dead, blacks ops 2 I bought from cash converters for 2 quid each. Bought about 80 games for the 360 since the beginning of the year. :sunglasses:

It is!

Any good local co-ops? I've picked up Left for Dead 1&2, and already have all the Gears of Wars and The Orange Box.

Need to go through this tomorrow and spend some money, need to also get my 360 games out to make sure I'm not doubling up.

Is it the case that Xbox 360 games can only be downloaded onto the *first* Xbox you download them on? I'm sure there is something about that for the Games With Gold 360 games each month.

If however I can buy games at this price and download them whenever I want, onto my Xbox One (and future Xbox One, if the current one dies) then that is a pretty strong argument to sell the discs and buy the digital...

Portal 2 has a decent co-op campaign. Pretty sure you can do it in split-screen.

Knowing Portal 2 is BC I may finally get round to completing it. Started on my xbox360 some time ago and even though I have it still plugged in my office, I just find it easier to **** on the sofa with the xbox One. Goddammit I do come across as somewhat lazy, but with over 250 digi games on X1 why would I? #lazychuffwithtoomuchchoice

Strange the word m ong is censored. I guess I'l stick with vegitate.

Is Catherine on sale ?

You can if you buy on an Xbox 360 :smiley:

no

That's not a restriction I've heard of.

It was £2 for ages when it first became BC

No, that is incorrect. Unlike the license system that the Xbox One uses which stores all licenses on one 'home console' the 360 assigns an 'offline license' to the console that first downloads it. Doing this allows anyone to play the game without the original owner being signed in - however the owner needs to be connected to Xbox Live in order to play it on a different console.

On the X1 it is a lot more simple as the licenses are automatically assigned to the home console, but when you change home console they all move. Myself and a few friends do this, but as our own consoles aren't the home console, we can only play digital games while connected to Xbox Live.

Any idea how long the sale is on for ?

Will there be more games added? I'm after Pure

I only own the remastered version but I am pretty sure the regular version will play fine by itself on the Xbox One.

I have both versions, both show on my Xbox One games list so should work fine, but I haven't actually played the 360 version on the One.

Until the 22nd so buy now while stocks last!


Oh!

Quite liked Call of Juarez: Gunslinger on the PC. Anyone recommend the 360 version?

Does anyone know if the older games will still have working online multiplayer?
I'm not sure if they rely on the publishers still having active servers or whether they just run through Xbox live servers.

I know but I don't want to be putting the disc in everytime to play it so digital all the way

Not sure the online gaming ever caught on

£15.99 for BO2 is beyond a joke.

Yesterday about 3am I saw saint row 2 for under £3 shame didn't purchase was only that and saint one and a few other games on sale thought maybe was part of the super sale and just early . just checked to purchase price now £8.99

How much does it cost to buy the entire catalogue

What?!

Xbox 360 game discs (DVD) are more vulnerable to scratches than Xbox One game disc (Blu-ray) which are more scratch-resistant than DVD.

Digital is the future, sooner or later console games will become digital like PC games (you don't see many on discs no more).

Microsoft are trying to do what Steam are doing. Backlog of all games in digital format. Won't be surprised if the upcoming Xbox Scorpio doesn't have an optical drive.

No optical drive on the Scorpio would be idiotic since that would mean any people who have any backwards compatible 360 discs, or xbox one discs for the original xbox one/one s consoles would not be able to play those games, meaning hardly any Scorpio's would sell haha, Not many people have built up a digital only library of games, most people who have bought digital games have got physical ones too (like me)...

I hope "digital only" never happns with games/movies since you can get banned from your account/ get hacked/ microsoft/sony/nintendo could have outages meaning we lose access to our stuff or our games won't function properly until problems on their end are fixed. So there could be temporary or even permanent periods of time that games/movies we have bought are not accessible to us.

Something new needs to be implemented into all online servers/storage/clouds, it's not reliable enough at the moment, plus DRM is very shady too!

thanks for this

I could not find assassins creed rogue on there which is a shame but bought both fables, alan wake and bully

Digital Foundry who went to see the Scorpio in action have already said that the Xbox Scorpio will have a 4K UHD Blu-ray drive.

Thanks OP, I only had a few XB1 games since finally moving from 360 so this deal is great. Bought a mixture for me and my son: Jetpac Reloaded (84p) / Small Arms (84p) / Cars 2 the videogame (£2.24) & Cars 2 The Queen (Free) / Alice Madness Returns (£3.74) & American McGee's Alice (Free) / Ghostbusters The Video Game (£2.99) / Toy Soldiers (£1.68), so well happy :smiley:

AC Rogue tenner at CEX.


Strange I found it straight away like matey above but it don't seem to be letting me buy it with my MS account balance which is a right pxxx take really. Definitely don't let you buy add ons with you pre-paid credit either and now it seems they doing the same with the discounted BC games.

I'm torn between Portal: Still Alive and The Orange Box. I have little urge to play TF2, so my only inclination to get that is the possibility of playing Half Life 2, but then miss out on the extra maps for Portal.....any suggestions if the extra content is worth it?

Catherine now showing as £ 3.74.

Sorry if this has already been asked but has anyone managed to get South Park - Stick of Truth on XB1? No purchase link shows for me. Thanks

Xbox games are link to your account, not hardware, i have went through many a xbox 360, the one i am using at present i bought from gumtree second hand for £30 so i did not need to use my limited edition 360, never had any issue with dl games and using them on any xbox 360 i have had, and if you do there is a tool on the licence transfer Xbox MS site that will allow you to transfer all your game licence to the xbox 360 you are using so you can play them off line if need be, and on the Xbox one this is also covered by a option that makes your xb1 your home console, just the same as a licence transfer tool on the 360 but with just the click of a button.

I believe you can only get it through pre ordering the new game (fractured but whole).

I got my credit from cdkeys and redeemed it and in payment options on the xbox one it says expires on 14/08/2017, didn't think they could steal your credit back that quick.

http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/Product/The-Stick-of-Truth/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802555308c5?nosplash=1

Should be able to purchase from here.

Any of these games good to boost the old gamerscore? :man:

Yep there's still a few games going every evening. You likely won't find anything in the daytime, but in the evening when the American's are on too, there's usually up to maybe 10 games at a time.

Just curious... Limbo, is there any benefit of buying the XO version as opposed the the 360 BC version? For £1.99 seems a steal

this. would also like to know.

That would explain it being cheap credit: short dated expiry, just like cheap food in a shop.

Are you sure about this? I have never seen anything like that before. Are you sure it's not the expiration date of your Gold subscription or any other subscription?

You get a free copy of the original game as DLC with this too

Excellent! Good spot.

left for dead isn't on the list

yeah, go to payments and billing on the Xbox one and go all the way to the right and it will show (Microsoft account united kingdom) with the expire date next to the credit. Doesn't matter for me now as I just purchased Catherine with it.

They both are.

COD2 is tempting as that was first COD game and loved it -anyone know if there are still any online games going on?

Couldn't decide to purchase or not. But getting the original game as well...great value!

The original game had completely gone under my radar back in the days, and review scores are mostly 9/10's.

Looking forward to see what I missed.

Orange box.
Ghostbusters
Portal 2
Nba jam

Thanks buzz!!

Also South park stick of truth!!

Got my **** rtype. loved that game on the spectrum/arcade... still hard as frickin nails tho! £1.99 well spent!!!!!

ikaruga
r-type dimensions
missile command ... at 49p its a bargain . with 2 versions
and ghostbusters

should keep me busy......if i ever play them lol

Why is BIT.TRIP Presents Runner 2 on the list? As far as I can see, that isn't Xbox One compatible.

Apparently it is now. I can see it in my ready to install list, under R: Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien.

edit: It is also in the available games list on xbox.com, and according to wikipedia added on May 5, 2016.

My bad. I was looking for "Bit Trip" and it appears as "Runner 2". Thanks for the clarification! Still no 'Works on Xbox One' icon on the Marketplace product page, but it looks like it works, as you say. I will attempt a purchase via my 360 (to use the store credit I have from cdkeys.com) and then hope to download it on the One.

Cheers,
Eric.

Just tried purchasing Ghostbusters with some credit I have in the MS store but this cannot be used for some reason, what gives? I have £10 worth of credit but it cannot be used on sales items, BS

All I'm getting is "Your purchase cannot be completed at this time. Please try again" errors. Has anyone seen that before?

EDIT: Neither the website nor my console likes like my Paypal, as credit card works.

Appreciate it was a good game 6yrs back but is it still worth the purchase now? Reviews at the time seem pretty much average 6 or 7/10. Look forward to your thoughts.

Is online multiplayer available on these guys or did they shut the 360 server down?

As mentioned over and over again in previous comments. Credit can not be used to purchase 360 games on the Xbox One. You will need to pay by card etc.

^^^Or buy it via a actual xbox 360, that way you can use the credit and it will appear on your BC list on your xb1.

Another one for retro gamers like me - Capcom Arcade Cabinet listed above is only 84p and the Capcom All In One Pack add on is £4.24 (not in the sale but still a bargain), so if you purchase these two items you get 17 Capcom games for £5.08 (original release was in May 2013, and the price was 2000 Microsoft points or £23.99)

Cheers. Hadn't seen the cheap price for the All In One Pack.

whats included in Capcom Arcade Cabinet only?

Seen this on true achievements with some recommendations from the list that are easy completions:

easy completions (ta completion percentage over 30%)

Sam & Max save the world (57% completion percentage)
Monopoly plus (56%)
Nin2jump (51%)
Stacking (48%)
Faery (45%)
Sam & Max beyond time (44%)

Not sure which game this is from the Capcom All In One compilation, but presumably it is where Ridley Scott got his inspiration for Prometheus from? :-)

Do the cods have online?

I did read that on some Xbox forum after moaning about the very same thing, didn't really understand the reason I saw about it being something to do with Xbone games not being region locked. I know it's how it is but it is a pxxx take of the very highest order.

I agree, it is annoying but I just put it down to backwards compatibility being a new introduction to the Xbox One so there was bound to be a few bumps along the road.

So when i log onto the xbox and look through the sale I cant find left for dead anywhere?

Got mass effect and toy story 3 for £6 bargin

You get 1943, Avenger and Black Tiger (for only 84p!).

Hi folks. I'm having issues buying back compatibility games. I can't purchase on the site or the console. Any ideas? A quick google yeilds naff all so thought I'd put it to the mighty brains on here :wink:

There may be a problem with your payment method. I have set up my account to accept payment by Paypal and have had no issues. You might also try rebooting your Xbox One by pressing the power button for several seconds until the console switches off. Then unplug the console for a minute and then switch it on again. Also, I found this:

Stil getting nothing and a couple of mates have the same. Anyone getting the same issue with purchasing this type of game? Tried with active paypal and working credit card.

Just go to xbox.co.uk store and buy it that way.

Wish Daytona was on sale. Or they made Out Run, marvel Vs. Capcom and SFHD remix BC. Have loads of arcade games that are already bought but not on the programme.

Yeah I just went on http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/?xr=mebarnav and searched for each game and purchased that way, try that.

Every time i try to buy any game (even if free) i have to get phone code verification from microsoft.
Is there a way to stop this nonsense?

I'm sure there was a check box underneath you can tick, said something like 'I regularly use this device, I don't need to verify in future' or something.

Dayyytooonnnaaa!!!

yeah tried that in the past but they still insist on the check.May be cookies?

use the Microsoft authentication app...so much easier

Oh yeah could be...

As long as your PayPal account is linked, you don't need to buy credit etc. I haven't had any issues at all.

Just picked up Far Cry 3 and Blood Dragon. Also wanted Portal 2 and The Orange Box but they both appear to be unavailable (at least through Xbox One).

I've never bought anything before from the Xbox store and when I try and buy something I only have the option to download to my Xbox 360 but I'm looking for something for Xbox One. Am I missing something?

For backwards compatible Xbox 360 games and DLC, you can click on the 'Download to Xbox 360' link. Immediately after purchasing an item in this way you can then search for the game/DLC on your Xbox One. The option to 'Install' will show up underneath the game listing. Remember also to set up a payment method. I use Paypal myself.

Yeh, I've been wanting Arcade origins for a while, Smash TV alone is surely worth a couple of quid to anyone?! Missile Command 49p, Geometry Wars 84p, Ikaruga £1.68, SOTN £1.68, etc... Using CDKeys, which makes everything 20% less, makes it even sweeter...

Bought classic Doom and Doom II.

When I played Doom on the Xbox One, the music was terrible! All distorted. Played it then on my 360 and it's fine.

Is this because Xbone is struggling to emulate the 360 game?

Works fine on mine, never noticed it. Not the best music sample anyway.

In case you missed it, American McGee's Alice is free:

https://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/Product/American-McGees-Alice/064efb92-dc4f-4e09-8283-2ab35ad7ed73

I've dug the old 360 out to buy AC Rogue and the first AC with my credit.

I got two bully codes for around 30 quid each in the run up to Black Friday so what's the point of buying loads of credit cheap to then be forced to pay full whack on your card?

Even with me buying on a 40% discount as such some of these games are still available much cheaper at CEX though, Far Cry 3 is like only 3 quid in there for instance.

It is free and has been for a long time, but it is an addon for Alice Madness Returns, you need to buy that game in order to play the free one.

Just spent over £100 in this sale, should keep me busy for the next year. :smile:

It's got poor reviews regarding the controls (important) and lack of special features (not so important)
Have you played it?
Is it actually good?

just got an Xbox one today off the Mrs :smiley: How long is this sale on for?? won't be plugging it in til tomorrow afternoon :smiley:

Believe it ends today, but you don't have to download the games straight away, buy them from the Microsoft store then when your Xbox One is set up you search for the games through the store on the Xbox One and the games you buy will show as Owned and you click to Install :smiley:

So far I have played Defender and Xybots and the controls for those games are fine. But at the weekend I mostly played the games in Capcom Arcade Cabinet, which is even better value. For 84p you get 1943, Avengers and Black Tiger. And if you purchase the All In One Pack for £4.24 you get 14 more games.

Wow they seriously need to do BO1 for PS4

Or just go to the My Games section and under 'Ready to install', they will all be sitting there.

When does this end? tomorrow?

Also, if anyone is considering getting the Black Ops 2 Season Pass for multiplayer I highly recommend you don't. I got it over the weekend and have serious buyers remorse. About 1 in every 4 lobbies I've been in is hacked. There have been aimbots, top players getting kicked, invisible players, endless killstreaks, teleportation. Its ridiculous.

I'm thinking of getting Call of Duty 2 because I've never played it, does anyone know if the multiplayer servers are still online?

I would have thought so. You may be disappointed with the game. I bought Cod 3. on eBay for a few quid on disc. Will hold its value but not something I would play often.

I've had a quick look at 2 & 3 and apparently 2 is highly rated (I know that would have been years ago) and 3 is mostly hated!
I just want to see what the fuss was about and used copies are going for a tenner or more!

Isn't comparing COD 2 to COD 3 like comparing Ferrari to Fiat?! COD 3 was bad.

Depends if you compare cod 2 to BF1 or another recent release. I paid 3 quid for COD 3. Probably will keep its value. Just saying 7 quid maybe worth saving. Agree that 2 is better than 3.

Give it a shot if you are interested. I had it back in 2008/9. Try left for dead 1 and 2 as they are more enjoyable.

When does this sale end?

Today I think.

The sale is good through May 22, and includes savings from 50 to 75 percent off of everything

I'm assuming midnightish tonight, as that's when the new weekly deals will start

Why is CRACKDOWN 2 still not BC?!?!

Just snagged Fable II, Skate 3 and Blue Dragon.

I know Skate 3 is on EA Access but I'm not too fussed about subscribing to that right now.

Just gave in! Alice: Madness Returns has always intrigued me. Any others before they go?

I enjoyed 2. Campaign was decent. Although infinite grenade spam by bots on higher difficulties like all cod games pre world at war was infuriating. Think most just look at it through nostalgia goggles, but while graphically dated it still plays well.

Thankeds. Just gone for Portal 2. Got
That many games to play as we all do! Great sale here, lots of cracking deals!

Still working gone midnight!... Maybe a couple more wont hurt :wink:

There are still people playing the multilayer, but the few times I've tried playing recently there are definitely people cheating.
The single player campaign is still one of my favourites in the COD series, played through it a few times.

If anyone is looking at Cod 3, music magpie have 1 physical copy in stock for £4.49 as I type.

The sale still seems to be live, I thought it ended on 22nd May?

Sales end at 11am (10am before the time change). Just when microsoft pushes the update out. So usually you've got the morning of the next day for a sale over here.

This is still going, how long for guys?

Sale has now ended
