For a while, online retailer Amazon wasn't offering too much in the way of digital purchases for Xbox consoles, unlike what it offered for Sony's PlayStation 3. That's since changed, however, and now a variety of titles are available for purchase on the site.

The games vary in price, going for $15 to $20, and include games like Dust: An Elysian Tail, State of Decay, Banjo-Kazooie and more for Xbox 360, along with Max: The Curse of Brotherhood and Crimson Dragon for Xbox One.

You do need to have a U.S. billing address and credit card to make the purchases, but it's a decent alternative if you don't feel like making direct purchases on your console.

      Hopefully this means decent sales on digital games since Amazon doesn't care what the brick-and-mortar stores think.

        I haven't seen much worth getting excited about sales-wise with the PS games on there, so I wouldn't expect much.

          The only real "bargain" I've gotten out of the Sony Amazon store was last year around Xmas I got Killzone for PS4 for like $20. These days the discount you get sometimes for having Plus is better in the console store than on Amazon.

            Id have to agree on this. It was better back in the day. Im STILL waiting for Murdered to go down in price or Need for Speed Rivals.
