Amazon.com is doing a THQ mega game pak sale. ~$25 for most of the THQ games. Sale ends on the 26th.

It seems that Pdox is ditching GamersGate, they have opened a web store on their main website that sells Steam keys for their games. Opening sale is 55% off on a whole bunch of their games. EUIII, CK2, HoI3, Darkest Hour, Warlock, King Aurthur, Sword of the Stars, Magicka, etc.

Is this the beginning of the death of GG? It can't be good when the company that started you ditches you.

 

[Maniacal]

I hope not, they do have a lot of games that Steam doesn't (Although not all of them are great...).

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is currently having a free weekend on Steam.

^Everyone who hasn't played it yet should definitely give it a try. Its a ton of fun.

GOG just released Neverwinter Nights 2 (Complete) and it's 5 USD off right now. So of course, I had to buy it

The Paradox War Chest is on sale at Amazon for $7.49. Contains Achtung Panzer, Gettysburg: Armored Warfare. the Hearts of Iron III Collection, the King Arthur Collection, King Arthur II, Victoria II, and Victoria II: A House Divided. The $5 January credit is redeemable on it if you have one. The Plentiful Paradox Pack is also on sale for $10 and can also have the credit.

 

[Maniacal]

Also a Crusader Kings complete collection for $9.99, has all of the DLC so far released (including The Republic).

Kind of lame since I only need three of them.

GOG.com has lowered prices on 29 games.

The comment of the first person in the thread under the announcement is rather on point. I bought so many games when I first joined gog.com, but I've bought less than a handful in the last 2 years or so. There needs to be more announcements like System Shock 2 from this week. I still can't play Myst 3 for instance, it's not on there. I realize there are less and less gems to uncover as time goes on, but still.

 

[Maniacal]

First time poster, long time member I think your best bet is to bring n as many new customers as possible, rather than tempt existing customers. I bought all the games I really wanted in the first 3 months of membership, and now only pick up games if I really want them when they become available - price isn't a concern.

I agree, although there still are a few games on there I'd like but haven't bought yet, but that is mostly because I have more games than I can play in two+ years. A few of the ones I have on GOG.com I still have working CDs for too.

To The Moon is on steam daily deal, only $US3.39. Personally I can't recommend this enough, one of the best stories in a game I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing. It's completely about the story, with very little gameplay, but it's still amazing.

 

[Maniacal]

Amazon is having a big sale on ~300 games. Prices aren't that amazing for many of them though.

[Red Key]

Should I buy this King's Bounty Bundle with The Legend and Armored Princess for $3.99? There is only a day left. Recommendations from random strangers over the internet are much appreciated.

 

[The_J]

If you like fantasy and turn based battles, then you can have lots of fun with it.

Lords of the realm 1 or 2 on gog? Cus 2 is one of the best games I've ever played, I still have the old cd. Thankfully someone made a windows7 compatible installer for it (runs off dos box but all integrated so you play it like a regular windows game). I highly recommend it.

Also I think Total Annihilation is on gog too. Very good old school game. If you ever played Supreme Commander you will love it.

Steam has sales constantly, check it daily.
