Here's a prime example: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. It debuted October 29, 2013, and this is the first time I see that you can buy Gold edition for $14.99.

I only bought AC IV: Black Flag last year, and I'm sorry I waited. It was well worth the full price. Definitely buy it at that price! It gives Syndicate a tight race as to which is the best in the series.

I'm increasingly finding that "couple of years" is turning to 3-4. Here's a prime example: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. It debuted October 29, 2013, and this is the first time I see that you can buy Gold edition for $14.99. That's more than three years. Far Cry 4 came out a year after that and Gold is going for $32 now. Those were Ubisoft examples. Dragon Age Inquisiton came out at a about the same time as Far Cry 4 and it's ultimate pack is going for $40 on sale. In both cases, they're over two years old and on sale. Sure, in all cases, you can get just the game for well under $15 but who in their right mind would do that?

~2 1/2 years. There are some games that persistently remain high. For example I bought CoD BLOPS1 for $20 last year. That was the first time since the game had been released 5 years ago that I saw it that cheap but most games that I buy cost between $5 and $15 and I pick them up a couple of years after release for that. I'm not saying the way I buy things would work for the majority that want the new game right now but from my perspective the wait doesn't matter when I have so many AAA titles that I haven't even touched.

TitanFall is $5 on Amazon. Anyone play this game any more? Not for me but maybe for someone :laugh:

I haven't been keen on this Steam sale, but I'm thinking about this game The Long Dark for $11. It is early access but has 95% positive reviews. Looks pretty interesting.

Do they randomize the content? In other words does everyone get the same games?

I imagine they randomize the games because the reason for a sale like this is to sell some games that aren't very good along with some that are good. If everyone got the same games then someone could post what they got and then this sale might not work if you knew what the games were when buying. I would expect to get maybe 2 games that I would want and the rest would just sit in my library collecting dust.

Took me a while to find too, but it's there for $15 called the Multiplayer Starter Pack. It's an interesting idea for sure, to buy the MP only at a discount price. Though the desciption says that the Start Pack "has limited content" so wonder if that means just not able to add on DLC, or if it means there are actual limitations...

I don't have the game, so I don't know the implications, but here's the list (from hardcoregamer dot com).

Features NOT included in the Multiplayer Starter Pack:
Zombies game mode
Campaign game mode
Ability to play in Multiplayer custom games
Ability to Prestige (your level will be capped at 55 in the Starter Pack)
Access to mod tools or modded content (once released)
Access to unranked server browser (once released)
Ability to Fresh Start your profile
The ability to access Dead Ops Arcade II and Nightmares mode
