I'll be waiting for Civilization Revolution (one of the best console strategy games). Bioshock for $5 is also tempting. I'll try and keep this updated.

Welcome to next gen:

Amazing.

Keeping my eye on 

Portal 2
Dishonoured
The Darkness
and maybe The Orange Box, just because I don't a a Xbox copy and I love it. 



Keep updating this thread as the prices are announced?

 

Yeah I'll try to. If I miss a day maybe a mod will catch it and update. I'll be watching every day so hopefully I can update every day before noon EST.

Welcome to next gen:

I'll be keeping an eye out for Black Ops 2.

This actually seems pretty good. Hmmmm, what will I buy..?

Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam.

thats a pretty good sale and real cheap prices on the previous halos. Halo 4 is a bit cheaper on amazon, but the sale is a really good idea. Cool all those games are available via digital download.

All work and no play.. makes odion go something something

Feb. 27 sales:


Ultimate Game Sale 1-Day Offers
Standard Price/Discount Price  
Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood $19.99 $9.99  
Assassin’s Creed Revelations $29.99 $14.99 
Assassin’s Creed $19.99 $9.99  
Assassin’s Creed II $19.99 $9.99

I may have to finally try the rest of the Assassin's series. The first was about as dull as RDR.
I also found out that despite the dollar parity, US/Canadian prices are different. The above $9.99 games will likely be $14.99 in Canada. This is unconfirmed. The sales lasting the entire week (i.e. Bioshock $4.99) are the same. 

Welcome to next gen:

That moment when you realize that you bought all the titles on the list that you are interested on already...

Makes me wish I wasn't such an impulse buyer.

Damn, disappointed to see only AC titles today. 

 

First console sale I've seen that actually achieves Steam sale prices. Hopefully they do more of them for you guys.

The use of mouse and keyboard gives them miles of advantage.

Yeah, that's not great. I honestly wouldn't buy any Capcom game from this gen for over $5. And apparently Code Veronica is the worst one. Still waiting on Civ Rev...

Came to post this, what a rip-off.


@Never: Hey man, you can't put a price on teh fun!

Meh, I think I'll continue to wait until it gets below $30.  $10 off is BS.
