Not much on sale yesterday, and im not a Steam fan, Gamersgate has more offers to be honest, and better prices.

But if some nice titles happen to be 75% off then maybe I could be persuaded.

Only thing worth watching for is the bundle deals, some nice ones like the Bethesda and 2K bundles. Or if you don't mind lots of Magicka then get the Paradox Bundle, it comes with Sword of the Stars 2, Mount and Blade and Europa Universalis.

But for best value with not so many amazing titles, but still enjoyable, Strategy First has some nice titles 69 of them, some are expansions and DLC but an extensive list of fun Strategy games, Space Empires IV although not technically graphically astounding its AI is very impressive as is the size of the game and what you can do.

If you love nice looking Adventure type games with difficult puzzles look at the Cyan Worlds bundle, MYST is still a classic.

For big titles in one bundle go for the Square Enix collection, if you don't have Deus Ex: Human Revolution now you can with a lot of extras. Along with Thief games (to get people ready for Thief 4) and Tomb Raider titles and Just Cause 2, all of the DLC included also. Not bad for £29.99 ($45ish I think?).

Oh and Don't forget some tuts on ASM and defeating DMA

Clicky Here for them

Picked up MW3. Already owned it on PS3, but want to run it with a trainer... so the deal was too good to pass up for me. Otherwise, I always like these sales. It is kind of like a flea market in that I can pick up a bunch of titles I may have otherwise not tried, and I can do so on the cheap.
I know that they are not the greatest titles, but I also picked up the Force Unleashed duo. I own the original for the WII and enjoyed it, but thought that I would have some fun also running these two titles with a trainer.
I am strongly debating picking up the paradox bundle... but still haven't completely decided on that one yet. I know, I know, I picked up the Force Unleashed pair and yet I debate whether or not to shell out the coin for the paradox pack... perhaps I should be smacked... but I am a Star Wars geek... so those titles were kind of givens for me.

That is the smartest thing I have ever heard anyone say about anything.

Crusader Kings II and Darksiders were quite nice today. Got Max Payne 3 from Amazon for $30 about a week ago, as well. Woo.

I got a Steam key from Amazon myself.

A lot of people have given it , but if you have a 360 controller you can use with your PC or don't mind binding a ton of keys, Binary Domain is still on sale on Amazon for $10 as well: Link
