A thread for spending currency only for greatly discounted electronic transactions

[Bort]

Anyone have a Sanic or Alice Madness for the daily deal sale price?

Was the only two games that I missed, I can pay you the price and gift you a game (mostly are Half Life 2 copies but i have a Mafia 2 and L4D2 somewhere around).

[Manticore]

Picked up Bioshock 2 for $12.49 (Yay! I'm really looking forward to the second instalment of this franchise.)

Batman: Arkham City is back up to $49.97

.... on Steam.

 

[Kyllian]

Odd, I'm still seeing the sale price, logged in or not

 

[Plumb_Drumb]

I'll just practice some patience and wait for it to go to 5 bucks, like the first one did

 

[Manticore]

I almost bought Deus Ex HR but, with Bioshock 1 (which I am on the last level of but got sidetracked by Burnout Paradise and Skyrim) and now Bioshock 2, I think I'll wait.

It will be discounted again in a couple of months............

........ I must get back into Arkham Asylum as well.

 

[DarkEmperor]

Dead Island (-50%) costs 19,99$ in the US and 32$ in Europe .. this sucks donkeyballs.

 

[Manticore]

Different prices, different regions?

 

[Kyllian]

Possible. Sale's over anyway so "eh"

 

[Manticore]

Yep; and it doesn't even look like they're going back to their wishlist promotion.

 

[Firefly]

All the coal has now disappeared so I'm just waiting for my prize of "every game on steam". I wonder if that includes a petabyte sized HD to store it all on

 

[Manticore]

All the coal has now disappeared so I'm just waiting for my prize of "every game on steam".

Same here.

I also got a "33% off any Valve title" coupon during this promotion which I have to use by March.

THQ Store
- Saint's Row 3 w/ pre-order DLC and Season Pass $23.99

Just to name a few. Sorry if I haven't updated in here much. I've moved most of this type of stuff to IRC since a lot of the craziest deals were short-lived.

Yeah, I need to get in the habit of visiting Amazon's downloadable stuff, they really did have some great deals this season.

Where did you buy Hard Reset?
I ended up getting it at Steam for the $9.99 a few days ago. It seemed like a good deal, and the 20 minutes I've spent with it so far has not left me disappointed.

 

[Manticore]

I've had an account with Amazon for years.... I must start taking a look at their downloadables too.

Steam had it on sale for $4.99 when I bought it. It's an okay FPS, but I can't say that I'm dying to play it again anytime soon.

 

[Plumb_Drumb]

There's nothing really special about the game, but the shooting is solid, the graphics are good and there are plenty of baddies to blow up.
That's all I really expected from it.

I didn't buy near as much this year as hal, but this is what I got:

Alien Zombie Megadeath - $2.49
Astro Tripper - $2.49 (very bad performance in this game for some reason, waiting for a patch)
Batman: AA - $4.99
Hard Reset - $ 9.99
Renegade Ops - $2.99
Rochard - $4.99
Overlord Complete Pack (Overlord, Overlord: Raising Hell, Overlord II) - $4.99
Serious Sam HD Double Pack (SS HD: First Encounter, SS HD: Second Encounter) - $2.99
Tomb Raider: Underworld - $4.99
Xotic - $2.49

I also purchased a hard copy of RAGE for $17.99 (I have no patience to download it), and Really Big Sky for $5.99 from some other digital distributor which I never used before, and I can't remember the name.

Somehow I feel the need to mention the Humble Bundle #4, as it was probably the best deal of them all, even though it was bought a little earlier than when the Steam Sale started.

I pretty much use Amazon to buy everything these days - including games.
They're gonna take over the world.

 

[SlayerDragon]

They pretty much have. See also: the Cloud.
