http://hss-prod.hss.aol.com/hss/storage/adam/fa5790527a820af2c0ee11c1c5f5425/ubisale.jpg (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/12/19/assassins-creed-4-more-heavily-discounted-in-ubisofts-holiday/)Ubisoft is currently hosting a massive sale, including half-priced versions ofAssassin's Creed 4 (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/assassins-creed-4-black-flag/), and Far Cry 3 at 75 percent off.
The caveats attached to these deals are all time-based and surprisingly complicated. For instance, that Assassin's Creed 4 discount is only available to UK PlayStation 3 owners on the PlayStation Network and draws to a close on December 21. The Far Cry 3 deal however, which can be found on Ubisoft's (http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubina/en_US/home/ThemeID.8605600)online store, runs until January 5 and includes a swath of other games such asSplinter Cell: Blacklist, and even a few discounts on non-Ubisoft games likeFallout 3. A cursory glance at the Ubisoft store shows The Walking Dead's PC incarnation at $6.25 and the Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition at a mere $5.
If sorting through the reams of discounts seems like too much work, here's a trick that might help: While you can find all of Ubisoft's discounts by navigating its site, those who visit the Winter Sale (http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubina/en_US/html/pbPage.wintersale) page are able to pull up lists of games based on the size of their discounts.
Edit: The text of this article has been altered to clarify the terms of theAssassin's Creed 4 discount.
