Second day: Xbox Live Ultimate Game Sale - toy stories

It’s all about the toys this second day of the Xbox Live Ultimate Game Sale. Gamers will enjoy 50-80% off on select LEGO, Hasbro, and a few casual titles. Think twice if you you’re first reaction is to call the following games lame. They got pretty high scores on Metacritic.

seriously if they had sales like this (steam like) then i seriously would not have had a problem with the DRM

Indeed. MSFT has the right vision that everything should go digital. From a business perspective, it eliminate the cost of disc production, shipping, etc. It also allows them to be more flexible in terms of pricing and sales.

However, their messaging and PR SUCKED. All Playstation had to do in their E3 event was say "we won't do what Xbox is doing," and they won.

You cannot stop the future. It will eventually get to all-digital. It is just a matter of time.

I wonder how many already have them.

gamefreaks365882d ago

Yeah, that's a good point. Still, if anyone missed out on them, this is a great deal.

You can keep them forever if you redeem them for your account before September 26.

Epic Game Store bad!

Oh, free games? Nice!🤣

My problem with EPG is forcing ppl to buy from their store via exclusives locking.

The why is simple. EPG has yet to establish basic feature as a forum to allow players to ask questions or talk game issues.
The always-online also cause issues for the simple fact that it would mean that you lose your purchase if Epic decide to close the store.

Now I have good faith that Epic will address topics and will improve the quality of the store (for example they have now the same refund policy as Steam).

AnubisG1687d ago

Wouldn't it be nicer if you were able to just...I don't know...buy your games on a disc, bring them home and than install and play them so no company would force you to use a usless app such as a launcher? I know, crazy idea😄

PC players wanted a digital only future. Here it is in all it's glory.

Next stop, streaming services because digital only isn't screwing people over enough.😁

You can still get the free games even if you want to publicly hate EGS and their exclusives policy.

You can access the app and play your games offline. I was playing BL3 yesterday when my internet was down for maintenance.

As far as losing your games if the store closes, that's true for all digital platforms.

@PorkChop
It's good news to know that you can now access your games offline on the EGS apps for it wasn't always the case.
As for losing the game if Steam would close well do you know that can back up the majority of Steam games on a physical media? as long as you have your account (offline) you will be able to play them.
But I agree that more and more games demand online authentification before you can play the game.

No matter the place on the list, we think these are all some great games!"
