| OK. BL 1 is pretty cheap here. But I can still get 2 for £25 Brand New so I'm good thanks. I'd rather have a physical copy | ||

| Borderlands 2 is still around £35, which isn't much of a sale in my opinion, it's around £22 on most online retailers. | ||

| @5 2400 to 1800 is 600 off which is 25% 2400 to 1600 would be 800 off which is 33% So unless it's 1600 the article is right. | ||

| So borderlands 2 games on demand failed attempt at a discount is making is actually normal price for most places............ Someone remind how this is a deal again since I'm sure I could have paid £40 for borderlands 2 everyhwere else on release, top of that we'r expected to be able to afford a season page. | ||

| I don't know why everyone is saying this is a terrible deal. I looked at the prices really quick on amazon and this is cheaper than new and almost all used copies. Borderlands 2 new in all stores around here is still $59.99. | ||

| Not being here for trolling, but I really miss some correctnes and some possible features in this news posts... 1.) It's day 10 (also as mentioned by 2) 2.) Season pass is 25 % off, as mentioned in the lower lines also by the author.(also 5,7&9) 3.) Some direct links would be helpful, as it is time consuming to search on Marketplace and even harder on xbox. However, Major Nelson, who is announcing those deals, is already able to post these links. So, why not here? @4 BTW: If you purchase a GoD game first on another xbox and then download it on your Xbox, you could have it twice for same price. e.g. BL1 now, for $10 for 2 copies. 10 25 , is a little difference, right?! OT: I already have all those BLs stuff, but these deals aren't that bad. | ||

| @23, trueachievements.com posted the links on their site for this. I think they even do it so that it goes to the appropriate Xbox Live site based on your region. | ||

| Wish the season pass was 50% off, but any discount is nice. I have the map now so I got it rather than waiting a few months for 50% off. | ||

| I don't know why people are saying they'll wait for the DLCs to come out individually discounted. If they come out at 50% discount it will be 1600 points for the 4, only saving an extra 200 points on this deal, and there's no guarantee the next deal will be 50%. Might aswell grab the season pass now. OT, I will be grabbing the season pass. Only one I'm going to buy for any game. Borderlands ones were worth it, so hopefully these will be. | ||

| Was hoping for 50% would have been happy with 33% even. But knowing my lick if i don't buy it it won't go on discount again. If i do i can get 100 points from the apocalyptic deal for spending 2000 points this month so i really only spend 1700 on it. Big decisions! | ||

| Also seem to never learn to wait with buying season passes. Not even gonna start on how much of a dick in the face move is discounting something before all the content comes out, becuase that's a norm nowadays. Oh well at least it's only few bucks... | ||

| I don't think they should ever discount season passes. It's such a spit in the face o those of us who threw down prior to the sale. Individual content, sure, but not season passes. | ||

| I'd pick up the season pass if I didn't already have it. No too tore up about it though, that's not a huge discount anyways. | ||

| So what do you guys think? Will Walking Dead go off 50% or just 25? Cause i just bought 800MSP so I hope it´s enough. | ||
 Forum Posts: 19 | Comment #40 by K1LLEGAL Thursday, December 27, 2012 @ 10:18:41 AM | (0) |
| @39 I have a feeling they will only discount each episode to 320pts each. When Hearthfire last went on sale that went from 400msp to 320msp. I don't see them taking 50% off but who knows! It's an amazing experience though definitely worth the price. | ||

| I bought the first DLC for Borderlands 2 and didn't enjoy it very much, played the second around a friends and that wasn't as good, the third sounds good but I don't see any reason to buy the pass for one, maybe two more DLCs. Have they fixed the game search thing where it doesn't show if the game you're joining is DLC or not? I remember trying to find games in Captain Scarlett's and no game said the name of the DLC mission, it was just a game of guessing. | ||

| @40 Well, I agree, the game is great and each episode would be worth even 560MSP. But I just want it to bee only 200MSP each because I bought only 800MSP code and I have 180MSP on account already = 980 MSP = only 3 episodes out of 4 :( | ||

| This game did not last long enough. and the replay value is 0. unless you enjoy doing the same exact mission over and over and kill the same exact enemies over and over then its right up your ally. it is a great game don't get me wrong, but I just don't see how people can literally play it over and over just with a different "character" and still get the same enjoyment they did the first time they played it. | ||

| To add to what I just said, just compare it to watching a movie, or TV show over and over, you know exactly what they will say, you know exactly what will happen at each moment, that is what I mean by my comment above.. | ||

| @47 (and 48), I agree completely, but that has never stopped me from enjoying Borderlands. The same argument can be made about nearly every genre of game (shooters and sports games certainly). What makes the game enjoyable for me is playing with my friends, and since I have more than 3 friends who own the game still, even playing the same missions over and over is fun because different people are doing it with me. And you are right, it isn't any different than watching a tv show or a movie over and over; but then again, I do that too when my friends haven't seen movies or tv shows I love. | ||

| I brought the Borderlands 2 game for $25 at walmart on 'black friday' so I'm willing to spend $22.50 on the pass. I'm still saving money either way oppose to paying the full $90 for the game and pass together. Not to offend or insult anyone but for those that are complaining about the price discount need to get a job. be grateful for the discount because it's better than not having the discount at all. Happy Holidays | ||

It was suppose to be mention on Tuesday (xmas day) but Xbox360achievement staff member forgot to bring it up. the first esipode is still free at the moment until after Dec 31. The last four esipode will go on sale tomorrow and tomorrow only. Rumors out there the discount will go down to either $4 (320pts) or $2.50 (200pts). | ||

| At first I thought 25% off Season Pass was a good deal. Then I noticed it doesn't include: Creature Slaughterdoom - 400 msp ($5) Collector's Edition pack - 400 msp ($5) Mechromancer pack - 800 msp. ($10) I'll pass. Rather wait til next years GOTY Edition goes on sale below $60. I got other games to keep me busy til then. | ||

| @29 your comment has made more sense than anything anybody else has said on here so thank you, because of you I bought the season pass. I felt let down that the discount wasnt better but its actually a great deal when put into perspective the way you did. To everyone whos upset they bought the season pass before it went on sale shut the hell up. You paid the early adoption fee and got to play the content before everyone who waited on a discount. It's like complaining about paying more for my xbox in 2006 with a 20 gig hd than people do in 2012 with a 250 gig hd. Have a little common sense people. | ||
