I think I might finally buy Portal 2.

Definitely get this game. The next time it's going to be guaranteed cheap is during winter sales, so quite a bit away.

I think I'm going to pick up InMomentum, and any other cheap game on my wishlist, since it's the last day.

Final damage is

The Witcher 2 $15.99

Far Cry 2 $2.49

Rage $9.99

Dead Space

Dead Space 2 $9.98 for both

Killing Floor $7.49

The Binding of Issac $1.24

Train Simulator 2012 $3.99

Payday The Heist $4.99

Just Cause 2 $3.74

Not bad for $57.41 and I might still buy any of the 3 games that come up on a flash sale tomorrow, even though I know I shouldn't lol.

Homefront

I had a lot of games, so I just picked a few that I had missed from other sales:

Alan Wake Collection

Fear Collection

All Killing Floor DLC (already owned the game)

Limbo

Sanctum

Now, I just have to find time to play all of these. I started Alan Wake but who knows when i'll get to the others...

I ended up with..

Fallout 3 - Game of the Year (Already owned it but wanted the DLC and at ?3.74 for it all. It was much cheaper)

The Longest Journey + Dreamfall

Fable III Collection

Shoot Many Robots

Darkness II

Serious Sam 3 BFE

Alan Wake American Nightmare

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine Pack

Tribes: Ascend - Steam Starter Pack

Max Payne 3

I caved and bought Cities XL 2012 the other day off steam when it was on sale... thought it would be a good thing to hold me over till simcity 5, but after playing simcity my entire life, it just doesnt' feel right... the UI is garbage, but the city graphics are nice

Forgot to add Max Payne 1 and 2. Got them both for $3.74. I couldn't pass that up even I may not get to it for a while.

I amazingly did not purchase a single game, one because I realize I buy way to many new games on release, and two mainly because of my wrist issues I have to avoid using the computer whenever possible, so for better or for worse console gaming is now my main way of playing games. So I pretty much have already played every one of these games on the consoles.

I do need to check out the Binding Of Issac though, is that the new game from Team Meat Boy?

Yup. You run into a few easter eggs too with posters in Isaac of Super Meat Boy, among other things. :)

Great game! Have you tried getting a gamepad for the PC for your wrist?

Why not just hook up a controller to your PC? I find I do most of my gaming on a controller nowadays. The only exception being online FPS where you need KB+M accuracy or you're at a disadvantage.

Yeah I have a controller for sure, several actually from over the years, but at that point in time why not just sit on my couch and play the games on one of my consoles on my 55" TV?

Obviously the graphics look much better on the PC, and trust me I have hooked my gaming computer up to my TV here and there, but my wife just absolutely hates my gaming computer in our TV room as the tower I have is a beast of a Thermaltake. :laugh:

One of these days I was going to build a smaller more living room appropriate computer, but honestly for now as I said the consoles do pretty much suffice, except for FPS's, which I basically put up with the pain to play them on my computer whenever I can, as I definitely prefer a KB&M for them.
