This week’s Xbox Deals with Gold has Arkham Knight discount, among others

There are some pretty big games getting discounts on Xbox Live’s Deals with Gold this week. Batman: Arkham Knight, Grand Theft Auto V and LEGO Jurassic World headline this week’s set of deals, though to be fair Grand Theft Auto V’s deal is reminiscent of the one that drew the ire of many consumers during Steam’s yearly Summer Sale.  

For users that have yet to upgrade to Xbox One, Xbox 360 users have a ton of options if they are itching to try something new without spending a lot of money. There are several Grand Theft Auto games getting discounts along with Max Payne 3, L.A. Noire and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. The full list of deals is below.

With Batman: Arkham Knight and Grand Theft Auto V, Microsoft is clearly stepping up the quality of games offered on Xbox One’s weekly deals. Last week’s deals were headlined by Mortal Kombat X, Thief and Zoo Tycoon so we are starting to see more and more AAA titles get price drops.  

They say good things come to those who wait, not that I’m suggesting that buying games on Day 1 is a bad thing, but there’s definitely something satisfying about getting a great game for a better price.

See anything that catches your eye?
