Today's deals are up and probably the first day I don't buy anything (other than the 80% Deus Ex HR at GG). Avadon is 75% off... which it already was prior to being a daily... uh? Then you have Torchlight... again. Some racing game, some sniper game, Silent Hill, Dragon Knight Saga for $10, Alien Breed, Warhammer, Derp Effect, Limbo, Skyward, and Brink.

Avadon the black fortress looks pretty nice at a quick glance. Any way that played it? Reviews would call it a an old school rpg, but is it? I suppose at 1,7 euro you can't go wrong in any case, thats what a package of milk costs.

So, I'm not quite sure I understand, but it looks like they've put an additional discount on E.Y.E., bringing it down to $2.50, but it's not one of the daily deals. But it say's it's a daily deal until the 24th. Either way, is it worth getting? Honestly, I'm tempted to get it even though I have my doubts at that price.

Haven't played Avadon but have heard a lot of good things about it. Still I think it's a prime candidate for an indie bundle now that Vogel has gotten off of his high horse re: pricing.

Probably an error -- seems like it's meant to be a daily tomorrow. At $2.50 you can't go wrong even if it is a bit buggy. A decent attempt at a Deus Ex clone. Again, though, might be a prime candidate for inclusion in an indie bundle down the line.

gonna get avadon and thinking about Operation Flashpoint 2. At the release date it was pretty shitty (I played the demo). Is it any better now? I know it's probably still inferior to ArmA2, but is it actually fun at all?

Thanks for mentioning the Gamersgate Deus Ex sale Mr Metro, doubt the DLC will be cheaper on Steam during this sale.

Also 3 coal for me so far today. Still got Space Marine and that free to play game to try for, so fingers crossed!

In case you haven't bought it yet the Amazon rep on Cheap Ass Gamers just said they're going to price match the HR and drop it to $9.99 but I think you already have that. Doubt they drop the DLC any significant amount. Who knows... maybe to $2.50?

Also the $3 Renegade Ops on Amazon does comes with the additional/recent DLC -- it runs another $7 or so on Steam so great purchase. Hopefully Amazon does a $10 Derp Island sale, too.

I got Dues ex with dlc from GG.About 25 euros, bit cheaper than the Batman pack i got yesterday. My shopping list is complete now, unless they put some insane discounts on Warhammer games. Happy gaming.

Hm, maybe it'll work from Mexico, else a VPN should work. They give you a Steam key for it, right?

What are you doing in this shithole? :?

Fallout: NV is at $9.99 :?

Fuck it, I'm gonna buy it and give it to my lil' bro as a gift.

Just got my first decent gift: Jagged Aliance 2 gold. Played it before, though. Not sure if I want to keep it or trade it away.

Avadon's pretty good though it has a shitty start. I haven't played Vogel's other games but it has me interested in them.
