I then walked two minutes up the street to CeX and traded the three of them in for €174. Not bad for 10 minutes work.
Haha brilliant. You should have grinded that little earner for all the copies they had!

This sort of thing is why my local cex has 30 copies of Spider-Man on PS4 and 30 quid each :)

I had a very enjoyable black Friday. Got an xbox one x with 3 games for a good price, dark souls remastered on PS4 and XB1 (£10 each), wipeout collection, shadow of the colossus, resident evil 7, shadow of the tomb raider, and it was all less than £440.

That is a result. Absolutely amazing console, as well. I had one early on, sold it because I was using the Switch predominantly and regretted it ever since. Got one recently on a very good deal and I absolutely love it. Enjoy!

I was just in B&M Bargains, and they do PS4 and XB1 games now. They had Mass Effect Andromeda and Mafia 3 for £9.99. I was tempted by Mass Effect, but really shouldn't buy games when I have so many to finish so didn't.

Mass Effect A is £6 in CEX mate.

Not that that should make you want to play it mind, there’s many better time sinks available.

The only thing I bought on Black Friday was a Blue Yeti Nano, and that was at full price. Not really my best bargain hunt ;)

My one purchase was Spyro Reignited on Xbox One. Also no reduction, but I figured it was worth £35 for the 88% rated trilogy anyway.

Doing Xbox game sharing with Gargette so he gets to enjoy it too (and last week he got Minit and Turok).

Oh I definitely want to play it, the original trilogy are some of my favourite games ever.

Yeah I guessed it was probably cheap most places now. Mafia 3, mind you, was the deluxe edition with all the DLC.

I didn't make any big Black Friday purchases this year, but I did get three gaming bargains - God Of War (£19.99), Detroit Become Human (£13.99), & Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection (£14.99).

Under £50 for all that ain't bad I thought!

I’ve seen Andromeda for as low as 4 quid in some of the XBO online sales (where gold members get extra discount)

Steam Sales means I grabbed Final Fantasy XIII, Jurassic World: Evolution, Furi and Axiom Verge for cheap!

Ended up going for it in the end as it was by far the best deal

I also got a months Gold and Gamepass for £1 each too

Looking forward to seeing what I have missed on Xbox in the past year or so

Sod all in my opinion.

Forza Horizon 4 was decent but I’ve never known a time to be so bland as a Microsoft console owner.

I would say that every cross-plat game I've played on the X has been comfortably better than on the Pro (because I'm stupid enough to buy stuff twice). I was playing Titanfall 2 last night and it runs like quicksilver. Absolutely glorious orgy of hot metal. Same for AC Odyssey & Origins, RDR2, Tomb Raider series, Doom, Skyrim, Witcher 3, SW BF2, Far Cry. That's the value of the X for me, in the end.

I have played Fallout 76 and Assassins Creed on the Pro so looking forward to comparing the two. I have 4k non HDR mind. I had a 360/Xbox One before so I have an extensive library to go at anyway

A lot of the BC stuff is also X Enhanced which is pretty bloody impressive on certain games. Mirror's Edge, Oblivion and the original RDR are ace and I've heard amazing things about Ninja Gaiden Black and Panzer Dragoon, going even further back to the OG XB.
