Xbox Ultimate Game Sale 2022 now live with discounts on 500+ gamesThis summer’s huge Xbox Ultimate Game Sale is now live, offering discounts of up to 80% on hundreds of games, including Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, The Quarry, Far Cry 6, GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition and more. Ohhh I was wondering what was up with that Microsoft rewards offer “spend $60 get a few thousand points.” They had the games listed in the store with no discount, I guess someone forgot to press the button this morning hahah Be nice if they offered up some of the DLC from the archives..ie Forza and 360 games as they won't be available soon according to Gold. I wish Star Ocean and Infinite Undiscovery would actually go on sale
