I picked up Splinter Cell:Conviction and Chaos Theory.

might buy chaos theory,but it would be my first crack at the series since i tried the first game years ago

It's the best one, Conviction is a pile of crap so make sure you don't get that.

I've been waiting for this sale to get Dragon Age: UE and I just got it for $25. :D Couldn't be happier, but that will be my only purchase.

If you don't like the other games, try Conviction. It's actually a great game if you aren't expecting it to be like the old Splinter Cells.

Not sure really, all I picked up was CS Source and BFBC2 so far. Mainly cause I've wanted em for a long time, and they just so happen to drop.

Yah, I wouldn't mind Lost Planet if it was a good deal. I've never played either of the games, but I'm sure it could be fun to shoot things :shock:

I've just picked up Super Meat Boy, FEAR, and Winterbottom so far. Waiting to see if Bit.Trip, VVVVVV, and Call of Cthulhu go any lower and hoping to see a deal for Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines (I want it on Steam).

bloodlines is never...EVER on sale. Been waiting for that game to drop in price for months and it wasn't even on sale during Halloween

Slashkice
VVVVV and Bit Trip are included in those $5 indie packs on page 15(Beat Pack and 2D pack) so if your buy them your getting 8 free games as well so when taking that into account both are well worth it I can personally recommend both. VVVVV is a nice oldschool style platformer that provides a decent challenge but its generous checkpoint system keeps it from being frustratingly difficult. Took me around 4 hours to play through the main game and there time trials and extra modes you unlock after you beat it so it has some replay value so you can squeeze out some more playtime out of it. Bit Trip Beat I bought because of it being in a pack but super meatboy made me interested in it as it was the first character i unlocked from the warp zone :P and I'm pleasantly surprised by it here's a copy and paste review from the recommendation i wrote on steam. Like an extreme version of pong with simple but trippy visuals and nice audio effects and soundtrack makes for a unique gameplay experience. Pretty much the game consisit of sending various blocks or bits flying down at you and your job is to block them using your paddle which you control movements up or downward with the mouse as you hit them you can chain them to gain a higher multiplayer to get more points successful blocks also create some nice neat sound effects that comeout of the left speaker as you block them with your paddle on the left side and make another sound effect on your right speaker as they fly across and exit the screen little things like add to the experience in a good way. Provides a challenging but fun experience defiantly recommended.

It´s an ok game,however,if you like the style and gameplay of the first three(and even DA in some aspects),you´re probably not gonna like this one very much.

I presonaly think it´s rubbish.

Probably after the Repeat day they will have more great deals. So I will wait on that although I do want Super Meat Boy but I wanted it in that Indie Potato Pack that I thought was leaked before the sales.

no? BC2 for $6 isn't a good deal? or Dragon Age:UE for $25?
