Xbox sale round-up June 27th, 2023

I never got around to Sable while it was in the pass, so I think I can spare $10 for it now. Plus it's all patched up and has a TU now for a few extra points.

Pretty MEH

TymanTheLong said:Definitely. And it took bloody ages to come on sale the first time.

Just bought sexy brutale.

Submerged? I'll wait for a 5€ sales👍
Still too expensive rn.

Except Dead Island 1.

If you don't actually like the game, play something else.

Call of Juarez the Cartel is unobtainable right?
At least the co op achievements?

Feels like a summer sale is coming up.

Guess I'll buy SkateBIRD to start/finish the update. Actually enjoyed the game

I am once again asking for Ghost of a Tale to go on sale

Nave Sutlef said:There are people on this site that spend like a hundred dollars a week buying games. It’s insane

SprinkyDink said:Well thank you for making me feel better about my occasional $50 splurges every few months.

Has there already been a post about the ID@XBOX mega sale??

Just curious, I was going to look through it but prefer how its listed on here!

R3f1CuL said:I loved Sable. Such a relaxing game. Highly recommend even though I fully admit it’s probably not for everyone since it’s all about exploration with no combat. I will say performance was pretty bad after the title update but didn’t have any issues prior to it.

Jazzy201 said:+1. Not looking forward to this ..

Another week, the same recycled sale. Its looking like Playstation is getting my cash this month.

D'ja think that Naughty Bear Panic in Paradise would ever go on sale? Or should I just bite the bullet and buy it? I think it's only a tenner.

Kao the Kangaroo and Biomutant both are half off. Seems like a good time to grab both of them. Would anyone say that Biomutant at its current price is worth it?

SprinkyDink said:Paying full price for games is insane.

SprinkyDink said:I won't pay more than $5 for a game that's only for achievements

And usually that out of rewards points

Pistolvania#2589 said:It’s only the second time Biomutant has been this low and I’ve been eyeing it forever. But it’s long enough I haven’t been able to justify grabbing it, I only buy what I play and Game Pass just added two new games that grab me.

With that said, everything I’ve read makes me think of you like that exploration/combat, loot searching type of game it’s a great game.

The Cherished said:Actual insanity is buying a game you don’t play. That is 100% money you could have lit on fire unless what you really enjoy about a game is seeing its icon in the folder called “Library” as opposed to seeing it in the folder called “Store”.

I find that I can happily pay full price AND save money if I only buy things I immediately play (so if I don’t have time I don’t buy them). There’s enough sales that often I can pick something I very much want to play from the sale but even when I don’t it’s still saving me money.

I don’t know what this says about the gaming industry, perhaps it couldn’t sustain itself at this size without gamers constantly lighting their money on fire but overall it’s a bad situation.

And hey, I lit my money on fire for years before I figured this out and sometimes I still mess up and end up playing something for 30 minutes when I liked it fine (though I allow myself to genuinely not like something, I bounced off of Cyberpunk for example), but mostly I’m pretty good, though it takes practice. You have to get your “wanter” fixed.
