If your bank account isn’t entirely depleted after the Steam summer sale, Microsoft’s Ultimate Game Sale might do the trick. Every summer, Microsoft discounts dozens of Xbox One and Xbox 360 games for a week, striking up to 75% off of the price for some of the most popular games of the last two generations.

Although this year’s sale doesn’t begin until July 5th, Major Nelson announced the 250+ deals early on his website. We’ve collected the best of them below.

Keep in mind, all the discounts listed below are for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. Silver members will have to pay a little extra. Also, every Xbox 360 game we chose from the list is backward compatible with the Xbox One:
