It looks like they fixed the MS Points price, I just bought it for 1000 points. Still a great deal though. Especially since you can get the points cards for ~%20 below their cash value.

Maybe it's region-specific. I just purchased Batman: Arkham Asylum for 880 Microsoft Points.

Just a heads up, as I'm not sure who all knows about these:

Free HL2, HL2 Lost Coast, and HL2: Deathmatch for ATI users.

Also for Nvidia users:

HL2 isn't free.

For those of you planning on purchasing Supreme Commander 2, you get $5 USD off if you pre-purchase it through Steam (i.e. get it today). Not exactly an earth-shattering discount, but if you already want the game, then you have a free lunch on the day it comes out ;).

Steam

Steam

Games on Demand (Games for Windows Live)

Can we get this moved into Gaming, and stuck?

So it can be like, for ALL Gaming purposes.. ?

There's already a thread for the Xbox 360 and PS3 in their respective forums. A special offers and deals thread for all platforms would be too confusing.

Steam

My friend has been begging me to get L4D2 for months. Told him yesterday that when it goes on sale again I would get it. Open mouth, insert foot. I'm $24.99 poorer.

It is too awesome of a game to pass up at that price! I was anxiously waiting for the price to drop a month or so back, but it was still too new of a game.

Needless to say I bought it anyways and it has been a blast ever since.

Video gaming is the best value when it comes to interactive entertainment. If you $25 for Left 4 Dead 2 and play ~20-30 hours, you're paying $1/hour to play the game.

Nothing beats Steam and Amazon for gaming deals.

Play.com has awesome prices, and comes with free shipping.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 PC - 35,50? (link)

Bioshock 2 PC - 23,50? (link)

Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening - 19,50? (link)

    • If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.
    • Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"  
    • TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results
    • Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?
    • There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
