Sales are like dessert stomachs, right? There’s always room for more?
Not to be outshone by Steam’s upcoming Summer Sale, or The Humble Store’s now Witcher-inclusive Spring Sale, Microsoft are throwing a sale of their own.
Creatively titled the Xbox One Backward Compatibility Super Sale, the sale offers up to 70% off a few hundred of the Xbox 360’s finest titles that are currently backwards compatible with the Xbox One.
The sale was teased earlier in the week by @majornelson (Larry Hryb), promising great deals on titles like Red Dead Redemption and Black Ops 3.
