January 2017 - Xbox Games With Gold

[jbeecham]

https://majornelson.com/2016/12/20/xbox-live-games-with-gold-for-january-2017/

Xbox One:
World of Van Helsing: Deathtrap - month of January.
Killer Instinct Season 2 Ultra Edition - January 16th to February 15th.

Xbox 360:
The Cave - January 1st - 15th.
Rayman Origins - January 16th - 31st.

The 1st Van Helsing was pretty blah... another mediocre Diablo knockoff. I played it through to the finish, but it wasn't very enjoyable. Apparently, this version is more of a tower defense game than an adventure RPG... which makes it even less interesting for me.

I own The Cave & remember it being pretty good. It's from the developer that did Brutal Legend.

I'm surprised they're giving away another Rayman game... they already gave out Rayman Legends, which was a decent game even though I lost interest about half way through it.

Meh to everything. I'll download killer instinct and play for 5 minutes though

Word I've heard is that Rayman Origins is one of the best, if not THE best platformer on the 360.

Well, I can confirm at least some of those prices are correct -- they are Xbox Live Gold prices. So you can believe me, or not.

I'm not disbelieving you, the format was just bad over Tapatalk so I was wanting to visit a source

What do you think are the best deals? There are a few tempting things there, but there are also a lot of indie games I've never heard of.

The Batman games are solid so one being up for $10 is well worth it. I already own farcry primal or I would be eyeing that. I may look into the battlefront season pass too. Outside of that I always look at games under $10 and any indie games on sale and there are a few of those.

Oh yeah, I'm not much of a resident evil fan but #5 on co-op mode was SO much fun. $20 is a steal for that game

I already have the Batman games and most of the backwards compatible 360 games. I'll check out some of the cheaper ones.

I'm on record as not being a fan of Battlefront, but I've been leaning toward trying out EA Access for a year--that includes Battlefront now, so I would conceivably give it another shot.

 

[Chaplin]

They are doing daily deals as well. Yesterday was Life is Strange for 5.00, today it's Rayman Legends for 6.60 and Peggle 2 (which I already have).

I'm not big on it but it's fun if a good deal. Not to something I would say pay full price for.

Ima have to check out the daily deals, I'm on vacation so missing a lot of the news I normally keep up with online. I rarely buy games right on the box I'm usually on major Nelson's Twitter or something seeing the deals.

The EA access at this point is a great deal, they have multiple very well rated games in there now
