For an entire week before the love month ends, Microsoft is giving more love to gamers with its Ultimate Game Sale. Released earlier than expected, there’s a whole lot of Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles that will be discounted for Gold members.

Some of the games included in the sale, dated to run from Feb. 18 to 24, may have already been released despite the official Feb. 18 starting date. Gaming Target has spotted the early release of some of the games but notes that it’s best to wait until the official start of the sale to see some of the remaining price tags change.

The link above shows the full list of games offered for both Xbox One and Xbox 360. And looking at the titles on sale, there are a number that are worth grabbing while they are still available. Even non-Xbox Live Gold members can avail of the Ultimate Game Sale. However, there’s an even bigger discount for those with subscriptions.

For one thing, “Halo: Master Chief Collection” is only 25 percent off for non-subscribers, but the discount can go up as much as 60 percent off for Gold members. Other titles that can be availed during the sale include “Shadow of Mordor,” “Destiny,” “The Crew,” “Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare,” “Forza Motorsport 5,” “Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris,” “Kinect Sports Rivals,” “Watch Dogs” and “NBA Live 15,” to name a few. The discount can go as high as 85 percent off for some games for Gold members.

And those are just the titles for the Xbox One platform. The Xbox 360 has a couple of noteworthy titles, a mix of old and new, as listed below:

- "EA Sports FIFA 15"

- "Batman: Arkham City"

- "Destiny"

- "Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel"

- "Alien: Isolation"

- "Injustice: Gods Among Us"

- "Mortal Kombat"

- "Grand Theft Auto V"

- "Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare"

- "Trine 2"

If those games aren’t enough, Major Nelson has also announced this week’s Deals with Gold for both the Xbox platforms. The discounts, applicable to the Xbox Games Store, are already out and set to be available until Feb. 23.

The Xbox One has two titles, “Duck Dynasty” and “Grand Theft Auto V” with Free Bull Shark Cash Card up for grabs at 50 percent and 15 percent discounts, respectively. On the Xbox 360, there are a few more games, namely “Duck Dynasty,” “Battlestations Pacific,” “Battlestations Midway,” “Dungeon Siege III,” “Tomb Raider Underworld,” “Tomb Raider Anniversary,” “Supreme Commander 2,” “Kane & Lynch 2” and “GTA V.” The discounts go as high as 80 percent.
