Default Steam Sale

http://store.steampowered.com/

Some rather nice bargains on Steam at the moment.

Just picked up Fahrenheit for under £3 and Broken Sword 2 and 3 for £3.99. Besides older titles there's quite a few great prices for new titles too.


S.T.A.L.K.E.R is only £1.39 for the next 22hrs, as well as GTA4 for £4.99.

Eidos Complete Collection is particularly nice: £35.49 and comes with Batman: AA, Deus Ex 1 and 2, all the Hitman games (except 3), Just Cause, Mini Ninjas and two Tomb Raider games, along with quite a few others.

Ooh and the LucasArts Adventure Pack: Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Loom and The Dig for £1.74

A few of the Total War games are fairly cheap, Rome at £1.24 is criminally cheap. It's almost stealing at that price, such a good game.

If you're new to FPS/Valve games, their complete collection is probably your best chance to ever catch up and not spend hundreds. £40 for pretty much everything good they've ever done, including Left 4 Dead 1 and 2, which would have set you back more than £40 by now.

Nabbed a cool Tower Defense game there for a couple of $s, and Dawn Of War II for about $15 I think it was. Some cracking deals.

Defense Grid: The Awakening? That's meant to be really good, and only £1.74.

I'm trying to resist my purchases because I'll have hundreds of games and no time to play them
Tempted by Machinarium and Trine though, and Torchlight and.....bugger too many

That's the kiddie. The maps where you can't control the flow of the mobs have so far proven to be simple. Those where you can have taken me a couple of tries to figure out a route through. Is fun though, and it's nice to see a genre of game I've only done in flash form be adapted into a 3D environment.

Torchlight is good fun, if you enjoy hack & slash RPGs (like Dungeon Quest). The addition of your pet helps, and at the moment I'm doing a run through as a mage so I'm surrounded by my summoned creatures who seem very willing to sacrifice themselves on my behalf.

Is this back on again?
I grabbed a couple a few weeks ago but it looked like the sale was over.
Time for a bargain again, methinks.

That would probably have been the Black Friday sale (3rd Friday in November, the day after Thanksgiving), which seems to be a big deal here in the US. All the retailers shove on silly deals and try to get everyone shopping. It's a busier day than almost any other in the run up to Christmas.
