    Tropico 4 including new dlc suddenly 66% off; probably be a flash sale or daily deal at some time.

    I want Tropico 4, but the base game costs R$16, while all the DLC costs R$26... perhapos I should wait for a GOTY edition with everything together...

    Newest King's Bounty game is 50% off in a flash sale.

    Also, Thief Collection is 66% off, but I already have a boxed version of all of them just like all of you do, right?

    Right?

    Saints Row 3 with all DLC is now $12. Pretty good price, I was waiting for the GOTY version to go down a bit but they discounted it far quicker than I expected. THQ fire sale!

    Yeah the last day of the Summer Sale it was 75% off despite the fact it had been only 66% off during earlier flash/daily sales. Lot of people got pissed about that. The base game is currently on Amazon's Editor's Choice list and I'm wondering if the $5 code would apply to the Complete Pack, too. I'll hold off to the Holiday sale where I'm sure it'll be 75% off yet again.

    One change from the summer version: it looks like the current "full package" version leaves out some DLC that people had complained about (Unlockable Pack, which is basically a cheat that can't be turned off, and Bloodsucker Pack, which increases money and respect rewards as well as replacing the neck-snapping animation with a neck-biting one, though there's a mod to disable that). Also the Steelport Gangs Pack, for some reason.

    OK, so I lied, too. I paid $13.29 and not $12. And it had 17 pieces of DLC. (the complete list is 20). No idea what's missing. Should be the Season Pass, but all of the separate DLCs from the Season Pass are installed.

    Edit: Unlockable Pack wasn't included, either, but Bloodsucker Pack was.
    Edit 2: Genki-Girl Pack is missing, which completes the missing three, with one of them (Season Pass) not really missing.

    Edit 3: Looks as if I was missing essential equipment:

    To be fair I also heard that most of the DLC sucks horribly. Oh well.

    I like how even buying the COMPLETE bundle WITH the season pass you still don't get all the DLC's...

    Hmm, someone said that Steelport Gangs is included, just packaged with Gangstas in Space so it doesn't appear in the list.

    Are you sure about the Bloodsucker Pack? It's not listed as part of the full package on the store, and there were some people on the forums/community who were confused about not receiving it.

    I was talking about the summer deal for $13.29. I was comparing the list of all DLC in the Steam store (20) to the list of DLC I got with my game during the summer deal (17), and the only pieces missing are Unlockable Pack, Genki-Girl Pack, and the Season Pass. But all DLC that was included in the Season Pass is included, which means only 2 DLC are missing (and both suck).

    Tempted to get Saints Row 3, given how much fun I had with SR2 despite its broken state, but I'll wait until it's discounted on GG. Got enough stuff to play anyway.

  18. Got Thief 1 (non-gold), Thief 2, and Thief Deadly Shadows physical copies, but I also have them on Steam because


    Do it do it do it. SR3 isn't broken. It's also way more over the top than SR1 (And presumably SR2 from the hair I played of it), which some people didn't like but I sorta preferred. Differentiates itself nicely by being goofy as shit.
    Some people were also disappointed by the lack of minigames and activities compared to SR2, but eh.*

    *This eh coming from someone who played SR1 on console and SR2 briefly on PC and then said fuck it because of the awful performance.

    Also SONS OF BITCHES 75% off Trine sale and I see Goblin Menace DLC isn't included. God damn it I'll keep waiting. Interested in Deadlight too, but probably not for $7.50. Probably.

    Oh I'll get it at some point. I also have Red Faction Guerilla to play. Well I got too many stuff to play and my Wizardry maps are collecting dust.

  21. Oh no! It's sounding like the 15% discount at Gamersgate from IGN may be dead forever now. So much for "Lifetime" discount. Rest in peace Big Rizzle.

    Considering that THQ is so hungry for cash right now they would suck a tranny's cock for ten five dollas you can expect all of their games to be on a daily or flash deal during this and the Christmas sale.They already had deals on Darksiders 2 and CoH,now it's SR3,WH40k will folllow in the next days

    It's a good price for the game,it's a lot of silly over the top GTA fun
    Well I decided to get it 50% off,3.5E isn't a bad price for a DLC

  24. http://www.microsoftstore.com/store...V-Skyrim-PC-Game/productID.228347900/vip.true $10 boxed copy of Skyrim. No idea what the shipping costs (Buying physical items?) but that definitely beats Steam's price if you wanna grab it. Steamworks, so it'll activate on Steam once you get it.

    I'd recommend it, has a fair share of stupid Bethesda shit but if you like that style of open world action RPG it's a definite improvement over Oblivion without mods.

    Edit: And not a super amazing deal, but $10 New Vegas complete. Also Steamworks.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store...ateEditionPCGame/productID.247348300/vip.true

    And if you're a monster and want a non-Steam game, $10 Max Payne 3.
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/pd/Max-Payne-3-PC-Game/productID.224536100/vip.true

    Edit 2: Good god, Metro brought this one up. $10 Diablo 3. Diablo 3's pretty shit compared to Torchlight 2 and Borderlands 2, but for ten bucks it may be worth a look if you're interested.

    Till 1.5 years ago I never had a connection at home, just my 56k, and I got a lot of physical items. Good sites (like play.com) does shipping for free, even across eurore. It's worth checking the shipping price, if the offer interest you.
    (If you don't fear the wrath of the GabenGod)
