Red Stripe Deals Updated Weekly

[Squatting Hen]

Since Microsoft started the Red Stripe Deals, I thought it would be cool to track the apps that are part of this promotion. I plan to keep this updated each week...hopefully. So far the apps have changed weekly, and once they are switched out the app has become regular price again...so get them while you can. The sale price listed below is not always the active price for the app, only the amount it went on sale for during it's run as a Red Stripe app.

I won't always be first to post these Red Stripe Deals, so feel free to add to this thread, and I will complile them all to this list.

If this sucks or is stupid, let me know. I don't want to waste my time or post stuff nobody cares about.

Re: New Red Stripe Deals - 04/11/2013

Nice find. :smile:

I did not even know about the app Collections.

I'll check the link on Thursdays to see if anything has been added, since it looks from your list like Thursday is the day for them to add something new.

Is this the same Sonic CD that Nokia gave for free awhile ago, or is it different?

Same game, but this version has the Xbox live achievements.

I thought it had to do with the beer when I first saw it. Then again, the Red Bull Nokia apps are from Red Bull energy drinks.

Especially since Red Stripe Beer is one of my favorites to drink...

Same here!

Not many beers drink as well as that Red Stripe. Maybe someone in marketing at MSFT had one of these in his hand when they put the app promotion together...

I think it's a great idea. I'm surprised there isn't something like it already, particularly I would like to see the history of Red Stripe deals (for however long they go back). That way, say if I'm thinking of buying a game but am wavering on it because it's a little pricey, I can see if it has ever had a Red Stripe deal and if it has not, I can wait it out hoping it will come, or if it has, I can decide whether to get it or not (since it's unlikely to get a 2nd round as a Red Stripe deal).

Thanks. I thought it was a great idea too, for some of the same reasons you mentioned. I would monitor the views and see if this was being looked at, and at the time it really wasn't.

Yeah, I've had frustrations over threads I've started too and how quickly they get buried. I've tried to make several ones but few seem interested and then they quickly get bumped down and overlooked: here I gather information on multiplayer Windows Phones games that I could then compile into a list, here I try to organize online multiplayer games of Carcassonne, and here I try to gather information on cross-platform multiplayer games. Like you I saw a notable deficiency (for you, a lack of a simple historical list of Red Stripe deals; and for me a lack of information on multiplayer games) and tried to fill the gap, but few people are biting on them.
