Some deals require Xbox Live Gold

I never know quite which deals to highlight: do I talk up mostly newer games that haven’t been on sale time and time again, or do I stand my ground by highlighting old favorites that most (but not all!) of us already own? Hmm. Little of column A, little of column B, I suppose.

To that end, here’s what caught my attention in Microsoft’s Countdown to 2015 sale on Xbox Live:Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance($6.49),Spec Ops: The Line($4.49),Bully Scholarship Edition($3.74),Red Dead Redemption($7.49),Max Payne 3($4.99),Rock Band Blitz($5.54),Tekken Tag Tournament 2($6.59), Telltale’sGame of Thrones($2.50 for Episode One; $16.99 for the Season Pass), andAlien: Isolation($30 for Xbox One; $33.49 for Xbox 360).

Maybe one day they’ll list sale prices instead of discount percentages. I would normally do that myself, but I’d like to go into Christmas without broken wrists if at all possible.
