I heard the Nightmare in North Point Pack was too short to be a good value. Can anyone who's played it recommend it at this price?

Nightmare in North Point was short, fun and weird supplement to the game. Note that it takes place outside the main storyline, so you don't really add anything to your development of Wei. That said, you DO get to find out how the characters you killed in the main storyline fare after you off them. At 280 MSP I think it is worth it, for that reason and for the achievements.

Are they really doing another Rockstar sale? And RDR?

I love them, and that game, but my god. New year ringing in with old-ass deals (2K Sales and Rockstar sales). Oh well.

Looks like nothing for me, since I don't have BL2 and I don't spend $15 on digital goods anymore.

Definitely downloading the demo for The Cave, though.

They call that a deal? I got Sleeping Dogs and most of the dlc for $8.54 US a couple weeks ago, PC version. Aside from that I already have everything on the list that I want or need.

I did not see Nightmare in North Point in the sales part but went to all items and sure it was 560 not 280 and 800 is the full price so either way it isn't 50% off. DLC: Nightmare in North Point
Cost: 800 MSP Achievements: 5 Points: 125. I think it's a 280 point saving?

You would think after two and a half years, everybody would own RDR and everything that it as to offer, so why would they keep putting it on sale?

Well, if it would make R* actually pay attention to the game and police their damn servers to remove the blatant cheating, I'd re-purchase all of the RDR stuff.

You've got to be kidding. This Rockstar sale is getting stupid now. Red Dead was on sale over the holidays and probably the deal of the week twenty times or more last year alone.

Look forward how well reviews for websites next week for The Cave before I decide buy it and play it. Also will try out trials to see myself before buy too.

I really hope Square Enix release 3rd story-drive DLC for Sleeping Dogs with new achievements upcoming soon. 2nd story-drive DLC for Sleeping Dogs don't had achievements so I do hope 3rd one do.

I wouldn't even play this game for FREE so 200msp is still 200msp too much. There is a reason that the most anyone has on the leaderboard is 70g haha

R* are going to get the shithead award for MP3. You sell the pass for 50% off when you didnt even gave the original rockstar pass owners what they paid for 6 months ago? Thats more then a joke.

Thanks for this! I've just bought the Sleeping Dogs DLC, and I've got the points ready for the Max Payne 3 stuff. IIRC, the final DLC will be free? If so, I'll just buy the Hostage and Painful Memories packs, and save the 400 on the Season Pass.
