Tomorrow is a season pass sale day:

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag — Season Pass $14.99 (-25%)
Batman: Arkham Origins — Season Pass $13.99 (-30%)
Injustice: Gods Among Us — Season Pass $7.49 (-50%)
Metro: Last Light — Season Pass $7.49 (-50%)
Saints Row IV — Season Pass $6.99 (-30%)

For ACIV, note that buying it on 360 before 5/31/14 also gives you the XB1 version, as well as a 25% discount on Liberation when it hits XBLA in January.

I'd be okay with that since I never got around to buying it.

Any of those worth the coin?

Is NCAA Football 14 worth the $15 or should I just go get a copy of NCAA 10 which I sold a few years back but remember being a blast and was the last NCAA Football game I played. I don't follow college sports at all, I just like the game play, so if that's a big factor, let me know which one I should go with.

I'd say the ACIV and Arkham Origins one is; the Bruce Wayne training DLC was $7 on its own. The AC DLC as of late has been very solid in terms, IMO, at least with AC III.

That happened to me when I was giving out Slim Jim codes. But there were also plenty signing up here just to make a request and then jetting. It got to be a joke.

Incidentally, I still had some codes to give out when that thread was locked. I have no idea if they're still valid, but if you want one PM me.

I am really enjoying it, but I have nothing to compare it to since its the only football game of the NCAA type I've owned. The gameplay seems great, although I'm sure as with all EA sports titles the regular players have some issues with it. To me it was a great buy for 15 bucks.

That's a definite then? I just got Sleeping Dogs in a trade. Was hoping for Just Cause 2 but I need to trade Sleeping Dogs asap before it drops to nothing and nobody wants it.

haha, I have both of those and haven't played either yet. Oh well. At least they are giving away some decent games this time.

Also correct me if I'm wrong: I don't believe you can play your PSN+ DRM-dependent games on your Xbox. So there's that.

Now I will have Sleeping Dogs in PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. "Free" in all cases.

Hopefully I should be able to start the game before the next consoles arrive...

Yes indeed. I had PS+ from June-December this year and downloaded almost every free game they offered during that time. Now that my membership has expired and I don't plan on renewing it since I chose XB1 as my next-gen console, all those games are useless to me unless I pony up the entrance fee again. (Not to mention the fact that I didn't actually play any of them because I despise the PS3 controller so very much, but I don't blame the service itself for that part.)

That is definitely worth considering. Hmm.

Looks like the final deal of the countdown sale is...Call of Duty: Ghosts at 25% off.

Not quite the fireworks I was hoping for on New Years, but there was, overall, a lot of good stuff in this sale.

DOTW is 40% off some of the LEGO games.
