And there’s just so many ways to assault a military base. It never gets old.
Really, at the price point Just Cause 2 has been at lately – around $5-10, and drops to $2.50-5 frequently – it’s an utterly fantastic deal. I’ve paid way more for worse games.
GetGamesGo has a complete bundle of Shogun 2 DLC for $12.40 (50% off). It’s all Steamworks so it’ll activate regardless of where you originally bought Shogun 2 from.
Does not include Fall of the Samurai as that’s a stand-alone game and not a DLC expansion. FotS is still available for $19.50 (34% off) from Greenmangaming. Also Steamworks.
Blur is on steam till Thursday for $5. I recommend it at that price - it’s sort of mario kartish (in that you pick up powerups, shoot at each other) but with real cars and of course an arcadey driving model. I like it quite a lot - not a lot of players, but the sale will give it a boost, and I’m going to organize SDMB games over the weekend.
It’s not at the link that Jophiel provides, but Crusader Kings II is $17.99 on Amazon (more than 50% off). This is exactly the sale I’ve been waiting for!
Gamefly (formerly Direct2Drive) is having a spring sale.
Arkham City $15. COD:MW2 $10 - which I’m not sure I can recommend at that price, but it’s the lowest I’ve seen it… the coop is really good if you have someone to play with. Batman: AA $5.
Also, if “Lady Gaga” happens to be reading this thread (forgot your sdmb name, but I think you keep up with this thread), PM me your number, I lost it.
Mount and Blade series on steam is 75% off. Warband is the best of the bunch by far and if you’re only going to get one, that’s the one to get at $5. I recommend it - both for the single player, the moddability (play all sorts of ways), and we also get SDMB games going every once in a while where we decapitate each other with axes. Steam also has Jagged Alliance: Back In Action for $24 (40%).
Newegg has Diablo 3 preorder for $50 - not a big savings, but if you’re going to get it anyway, that’s cheaper.
Gamersgate has Just Cause 2 Complete for $6.25 (includes all DLC) - fantastic game and great deal. Thief series 75% off. Supreme Commander 2 $5. The Tomb Raider games 75% off. All Square Enix games on sale, looks like. Dungeon Siege 3 $12.50.
Steam has Alan Wake 50% off ($15) through Thursday afternoon. The daily sale is anomoly: warzone earth for $3.40 that’s a different take on tower defense - you’re the invader. There’s the “EA Indie Bundle” (and how are you indie if you’re EA?) for $20 - which has the 2 shank games, the 2 deathspank games, warp and gatling gears. All of those games are 50% off individually.
Steam also has Portal 2 for $7, which isn’t listed on the deals page, but it’s there when you go to the portal 2 page. Also portal 1+2 for $8.50.
Gamefly/D2D has Fear 3 for $5.
Gamersgate has the majesty series 75% off.
Greenmangaming has a bunch of stuff - NFS: Hot Pursuit and Shift for $6 each. Burnout Paradise ultimate box $6. King Arthur collection $7.50. Hearts of Iron 3 Collection $7.50. Other stuff.
Amazon digital has psychonauts for $4. Amazon has a few games on sale but it’s really hard to tell what’s on sale on amazon. Is there some sort of sort by discount or list recent discounts/current sales feature?
Steam has Company of Heroes 80% off (complete pack for $10, but Tales of Valor is skippable really, you can get the other 2 for $6), Commandos collection for $3.
Amazon has Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 Complete for $5, which is finally a price I’ll pay to replace my old lost copy. It’s an old game but still never dropped below $15-20. It’s fun - I wish they’d make RCT4. Amazon also has all the Serious Sam games 75% off.
Notable: Payday The Heist $5, COD:MW2 $10 (worth that much for campaign/coop if you like that sort of thing - the coop is actually pretty good), NFS: Hot Pursuit $5, Sim City 4 $5, all the sims games/expansions 66% off, Tropico 3 $3, Metro 2033 $5.
Edit: Amazon is really fucking bad at trying to sell you stuff, which is amazing, since they sell so much stuff. They didn’t list the bioshock pack (1+2) for $7.50 amongst the sales, but if you look at the top 10 sellers, there it is. Borderlands GOTY $7.50 too. Amazon is bad at letting you know what’s on sale.
