Running digital distribution game sale/special thread

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.

Yeah, right…:rolleyes:

Today is Deus Ex Day on Steam - Human Revolution for $7.50, the missing ling DLC for $3.75.

There’s also a daily sale on the old fallout games - Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics are $6 together or 3.30 each.

Metro 2033 is $5 on GamersGate. Dragon Age: Ultimate is $9.

Trine 2 is $7.50 on steam, Trine is $2. If you get Trine 2, get ahold of me, we can goof around with the coop.

Tropico 3 gold is $6 on Gamersgate.

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.

If you did the survey last month for the free copy of Cities in Motion, I just received my key from GamersGate.

Me, too. I thought they had forgotten!

GOG.com is giving out free copies of Fallout 1 for the next 48 hours or so. Downloading mine right now. :smiley:

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.

Dead Space and Dead Space 2 are 75% off (five bucks each) on Steam for the next 30 hours or so.

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?

The reason for the Portal 2 sale is that the puzzle creator IDE has been released!

It seems super easy to use, and looks fantastic. Kind of like the promo renditions of rooms they have in the funny ads for Portal 2.

Tropico 4 free to play weekend at Steam and 66% off the game + DLC.

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.

Amazon is doing 12 Days of Dynamite Deals. I don’t know if they roll out new stuff each day or what. Currently they have as their featured sales:

Syndicate - $29.99 (50% off)
Square Enix Ultimate Collection - $7.49 (includes Just Cause 2, Tomb Raider: Guardian of Light, Tomb Raider: Underworld, Kain & Lynch 2, Supreme Commander 2) 92% savings
Bioshock 1 & 2 pack - $7.49 (81% off)
Hitman Pack (Silent Assassin, Code 47, Blood Money) - $6.99 (77% off)
X-Com Enforcer, X-Com Apocalypse - $2.99 each

Plus assorted other sales.

Amazon still having that sale, I haven’t been paying attention to it like I should.

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.
