Just wanted to remind anyone that was considering getting Best Buys GCU for 30 to do so today before it's gone. Just came back from getting mine and using it to get Majoras Mask for 32 bucks. I always put store deals of till the end of the week and forget so I figured I'd remind people one last time just in case.
Since I never had it before, anyone wanna enlighten me as to whether or not it works with online purchases? Our is it just in store. Because The Amazing SpiderMan 2 is on deal for 30 on their website and I hear some good things about it.
Sweet fancy moses that is great news. Thank you kindly. I may be in trouble with an instant 20% off bestbuy.com and their clearance sale section at my disposal 24/7.
The one caveat is that the welcome coupons you get only work in store. The 20% off definitely works online, though, and stacks with any clearance or other sales.
Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag Xbox One Game 50%
Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition Xbox One Game 60%
Thief Xbox One Game 67%
The Crew Silver Credit Pack Add-On 25%
Was waiting for a discount on Sleeping Dogs wonder if I should get Thief.
13 bucks is tempting but I didn't hear great things.
It really depends on whether you played the original Thief games.
If you didn't, the new Thief is kinda okay.
If you did, the new Thief will put you into a controller-destroying rage.
Wasn't that the same said of Thief 3: Now on Console and Third Person, So It Sucks Now?
Some, but there were loads of other Thief fans that dug it.
The new Thief managed to piss off pretty much every Thief fan, because they changed it to make it like every other AAA game out there. Honestly, the best modern Thief game is Dishonored.
Does that 50% for ACIV include DLC or just the base game?
Probably just the base game so you still need to shell out $30 for the season pass.
It's always just the base game unless otherwise specified.
I wanted New Thief to be more like Thief 3 was. When I found out it wasn't going to have third person, I shrugged and figured I'd get it anyway since I liked T3 so much. At this point (since I already have Dishonored) I'd probably wait until sub-$10 shows up. And, as always, since my backlog is still so huge, it's probably more like $5 max.
Ahh...wasn't sure what platform Dragkonias was talking about. Humble has a bundle that includes Sleeping Dogs and Thief (and a bunch of other Square games) for $15...so thought he might have been referring to that.

Sounds like next month's Games With Gold will be Tomb Raider and BioShock Infinite, and some kind of Rayman on the One. So don't buy those for now.
Also, TR and BI are both games I own, but I'm really pleased for everyone else who's not played them.
Also also, rumour that April's GWG will be a double bounty, so maaaybe four 360 games and two One games.
And if these three amazing titles aren’t enough for you, we have one more big announcement: Since the program’s launch at E3 2013, you’ve collectively downloaded over 100,000,000 Games with Gold games! It’s definitely clear to us that Xbox Live Gold members love to game, and Games with Gold fuels that passion. To commemorate this huge milestone, Xbox is giving you more of what you love, with twice the free Games in April! Next month, you can look forward to four free games on Xbox 360, and two free games on Xbox One.
One hundred million games downloaded? Why you gotta lie, MS? There aren't even that many games ever!
Rayman's also up on XB1. And I am now reinstalling it on my PS4 because the XB1 controller is ass for this game... but now I have the urge to play it. Forgot how good it was.
Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.
GOG.com is doing that annoying thing where they have a rolling sale with limited amounts of copies available again.
This time there are TWO rolling deals, so the entire sale shouldn't get held up by the Citizen Kane of gaming again. Although Hitman 2 is up right now, and it's just kinda sitting there.
The Amazing Shity-Reboot (GoD) 63%$14.79
Bully (GoD) 75%$3.74
LA Noire (GoD) 75%$7.49
Max Payne 3 (GoD) 75%$4.99
Max Payne 3 Rockstar Pass (DLC) 75%$3.74
Midnight Club LA (GoD) 75%$3.74
Red Dead Redemption (GoD) 75%$7.49
And then there's this:
Watch Dogs (GoD) 33%$39.99
Not sure if serious it's a sale or a reduced price.
Starting today, Xbox Live Gold Members who don’t have an Xbox One yet can start building their library of Xbox One games directly from Xbox 360 by taking advantage of the Games With Gold program. You have always been able to do it this via the web and my monthly Games With Gold posts. But now, on your Xbox 360 console head to the special Games With Gold section from the link on the home page of the console and you can ‘purchase’ it there.
See the video above that will show you exactly how to do it. And don’t forget to grab your copy of Rayman Legends for Xbox One (along with Tomb Raider for Xbox 360.)
I swear to christ I tried using their shitty website to tag X1 GwG titles to my account and couldn't do it. God dammit!
I mean, I can't buy shit for my 360 via the website because I don't have a valid credit card in spite of all the fauxbux I have. Assholes.

$50 Steam card for $40 in stores today only with the email code. Unfortunately looks like they limit it to 1 per customer. Blah.
The Best Buy Club actually seems worthwhile now, assuming you don't mind locking yourself into Best Buy.
Problem with Best Buy is that good luck getting what you want if your interest is in something beyond AAA titles. Etrian Odyssey? lol wat the hell is that

All things considered, Thief for ten bucks is probably a good deal. This list feels light, though.

$7.50 for Definitive Sleepy Dogs. If you're wary of NuThief, this might be a better option.
Also, TR and BI are both games I own, but I'm really pleased for everyone else who's not played them.

360
Tomb Raider - 1-15
BioShock Infinite - 16-31
X1
Rayman Legends - All Month
I wonder if this means they might put the BSI Season Pass on a discount in the next month or two.
EDIT:
Also confirmed is the double games in April.
One hundred million games downloaded? Why you gotta lie, MS? There aren't even that many games ever!
Ooh good shout, we've missed Burial At Sea the last couple of times it's been cheap.
Man that shit will last a week as everyone new everyone the game gets destroyed by level 100 buttholes
