Hmm, 78% off of Splinter Cell: Conviction costs $40. Smiley: um

They really need to pick a different icon.

Mine is different...

Jagged Alliance Back in Action 9.99
Spliter Cell Conviction 4.99
Football Manager 2012 7.49
Bastion 3.74
Operation Flashpoint Red River 11.24
SPAZ 2.49
Bioshock sale 4.99

I picked up so far:
Dungeon Siege 1, 2, 3

Morrowind
Oblivion

I think it totaled 25 dollars.

I pretty much bought every game I've been meaning to play for the past 2 years if they were 75% off. (And I didn't buy anything discounted less than that).

Most of them were indie games for $2.50-4. I only bought two or three games that were more than $5, and none were more than $10. I set a rule that >$5 was my cutoff and stuck to it for the most part.

Spent a lot of money, but I don't regret any of the purchases. I have hundreds of potential game hours here.

And considering I'll be spending $10 for 3 hours of enjoyment tonight, when I go see DKR, I think it's fair. :P

My totals for the week:

Terraria - $2.49
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 - $4.99
From Dust: $3.74
The Witcher: Enhanced Director's Cut: $2.49
The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition $15.99
Civilazation V: GotY Edition (all DLC except Gods and Kings) $12.49
Alan Wake Franchise (some CE extras and American Nightmare) $9.99

$52.18 in total. That's a lot of content for less than the price of one new console game.

Saints Row 3 is (probably) glitched right now at $13.29 for the game with all the DLC. Previously when it was on sale, that pack was $24.99

The core game is on sale for $12.49 so I really doubt giving all the DLC for eighty cents more was intentional.

As of 6 AM the full game+DLC sale price is still $13.29, so grab it if you want it.

Just saw this, and as of now, its under 10 minutes...guess I'll grab this one as well.

My list:
-Fable 3 and Fable TLC
-Dungeon Defenders
-Portal 2 (Doug actually gifted this one to me).
-SR3 is now purchased and downloading.

There were a few deals I wanted but passed up. I probably will regret not getting Batman, but for the other games I really hadn't heard enough personal reviews to want any of them.

well from what i remember, you dont have a party, its just your main character. The combat was more fluid than KotOR and it offered a unique setting for an action/rpg. I havent played it in like 6-7 years though :P. I'm buying it, want to see how it looks on PC and if it's still fun. 3.74 is a negligible amount anyways.

I've read there are issues getting it running, but that a quick google search should help get it cleared up.

When it comes to Steam, the issue is never price... it's "do I need another game?"

But for five bucks, that week was probably worth it. Then you can come back and play it later.

I tend to play games in cycles. I'll play one for a while every day or two, then drop it. But later come back and play it again for a period of time.

I can't get Darksiders to run well at all. The movie and ingame framerates are godawful, and my PC well exceeds the requirements. I've tried new drivers and old drivers and nothing seems to work. Kind of disappointing.

Speaking of Darksiders, GMG voucher code PARTP-ALCNO-TIESU is good for 20% off anything through the end of the month and is reusable.

With it, Darksiders and Metro 2033 are both currently $3.99 each.

I've never had a problem with running any other games. I was gifted the THQ bundle, and everything runs perfect on max settings except Space Marine and Darksiders.
