    As usual there are some great deals on games and more are coming.

    I just picked up Dead Island Riptide w/DLC and Dishonored (GOTY edition) for about $20 combined. I'm hoping Black Flag will be on sale but it isn't yet.

    You can get all three Bioshock games for $15, original Dead Island for $8, all Just Cause games for $15, Resident Evil 5 for $5, and some pretty new games for half-off.

    IIRC you can buy a game and label it as a "gift" and if you don't get around to playing it you can return it. Might be wrong on that one.

    Sounds like a bunch of hot air to me.

    I'm tempted to pick up a game or two, but I haven't been playing games that much lately. Dishonored looks pretty cool.

    Today you can pick up EVE Online for $2, Far Cry 3 for $8, Chivalry for $7, or FF7 for $4, among others.

    Torchlight 2 has also been put up for 50% off ($10) if you like dungeon grinding.

    BioShock Infinite is still the best deal, IMHO. For $10 you get a AAA title that doesn't suck.

    I'd love to blow a bunch of money on this, but most of my gaming budget is going to a ps4 early next year, and after that i plan to get a new graphics card. I could miss lots of deals.

    It's fun. It has it's own style. Stealth and non-lethal runs are rare these days.

    Just picked up Dishonored, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, and Euro Truck Simulator 2, w/ the Going East (E. Europe) expansion pack. Grand total $25

    I thought about getting Train Simulator 2014, but it only comes with three routes. There is $1500 worth of add-ons you can buy for that game!

    Steam's not really working for me, either.
