I buy all these games and never play them... also WARNING, the Steam version of Far Cry apparently doesn't work well with Win7, if you want to play it get the gog.com version.

Oh well, still waiting for the stuff I want/missed. Got most of that already. Sims 3 is tempting, but I don't know if I would get a tenner's worth.

Super Meat Boy is a good one. So is "AAahh! A Reckless Disregard for Gravity." There is also BIT.TRIP.BEAT, Cogs, Burn Zombie Burn, Eversion (highly recommend), Droplitz, Eufloria, Galcon Fusion, Gish, Gridrunner Revolution, I think Magicka would count as one a little, Plain Sight, Proto Galaxy, The Polynomial, QuantZ, Rhythm Zone, Audiosurf, Zombie Driver, and VVVVVV.

I wouldn't say that today's deals are bad, but it is repetitive today. A lot of the games on there were previously on sale before.

I wouldn't. It might be nice to max it and admire the visuals, but only the vistas. The people look pretty bad. it isn't a fun game either - many system warriors can attest to that.

That's bound to happen if you've taken part in previous sales. Wound up buying at least 15 games during the last summer sale, a little less during the holiday sale and even less during this summer sale. There are plenty of great deals, we probably just have the majority of games that interest us.

THQ Collection oh my god... Too much to ever play, I wish i had the time to play them all for £35 but i will most likely play three of those and leave the rest so i won't be getting it.. Steam sales are crazy right now the servers are stressed like crazy.

Nah Jamestown only has Local co-op, but you can plug in additional mice to play 4P. It's one of the best arcade shooters I've played :) Everyone should go buy it.

I also has a guest pass for Killing Floor if anyone is interested. It expires a month from now. I believe it gives you the full game until then.

If it helps, the price of upcoming DLC on the 360 would cover the entire cost of the game on the PC (where DLC is free and mods are available).

It's definitely worth it just to play the DLC and for the PC Steam Groups so you can play 10 vs 10 Versus mode.

It uses GFWL. It has achievements, but it's attached to your Gamertag. You can use a controller also. I personally prefer the M/KB controls because I can switch gadgets faster than on a controller.

Huh, wasn't The Sims 3 67% off since day 1? I don't know why it is there , it's not a "daily offer"... or I'm missing something? Btw I'm very tempted to buy L4D 4 pack for me and my buds, $3.75 each copy is a massive deal.

Several Steam weekend sales ago, I discovered that I was wasting money on games that I play only a few times at most. Since then, I have grown extremely wary of sales and haven't bought anything since. I might buy something if it catches my eye, but so far, this summer sale is one of the worst holiday sales I have seen Steam put on. Maybe it's because I have nearly every game they have put on sale so far, or maybe it's because I am tired of wasting my money on games that I barely play.

Indie games, I discover, are the worst bang for the buck out there, in general. I spent only twenty minutes with Universe Sandbox before realizing that I had wasted $8.99.

My verdict: Buy it. Especially if you are a fan of Heroes of Might and Magic combat. Dont buy it if you dislike turn based combat.

I just finished Lost Odyssey, so turned based doesn't bother too much. :P I'm not a huge fan of chess board movement though, but the game looks fantastic.

If that is the case go buy it. I am sure you will like it, just like I did and several other posters here.

Good to see more people liking/being indifferent to Turn Based Combat, I see so much hate for turn based systems these days.

Edit: There is a demo for both the Legend and Armored Princess if you are still not certain.

Lol google is your friend :P

Anyway, what do you think are the best collections under 20 dollars? I'm pretty interested in the Frozenbyte collection. Seems like a sweet deal. Any others im missing?

Also, I missed Oblivion sale :( I hope it goes back on.

Bought Batman AA. Had it on PS3 a long time, ago but was short on money and sold it for as much as I bought it lol. Game looks great. I can easily run it through the roof.
