Bleh, probably should have bitten on that Pint Sized Paradox pack last week on Amazon. Ah well, live and learn!

Saints Row 3 won the community vote. I just bought it. Heard it is brosome.

I was cheering for either Batman or Witcher and got shit as usual. This was just like euro cup every team I cheered for lost. Fuck you guardian angel.

Not really commenting on the game just that it's a pretty mediocre deal. Like two weeks ago Amazon was selling it, CK2 DLC, Majesty Gold, and Majesty Collection for $7.50 -- just $0.80 more than what Steam wants for Warlock now.

I think they add stuff like a new unit(s), another leader, a new spell or two, etc. Nothing amazing.

Hoorah, its here!

Looks like all i'm getting today is sword of islam. Save the big spend for the last day.

Though interesting with the flash sales to try to get people to spend more on a daily basis.

Here's the first day reddit thread, while reddit sucks yadda yadda, the aspies over there do a good job of collating all the useful stuff.

Oh Jesus, they have links to Totalbiscuit videos. Why would they do that to people. Why. WHY. And people think RPG Codex is cruel and depraved.

I didn't actually click on the links, Did find out dx:hr was on sale and I missed it, bloody timezones.

It's certainly possible I guess, but given it's $1.50 I wouldn't wait if I was you, but that's just me. When things get that cheap I tend not to worry about it, especially if it's something I want.

I'll wait a bit longer, I end up paying stupid foreign exchange fees on crap I buy, so might as well combine it with something else, or wait until the last day and vacuum up a bunch of cheap things. It won't get more expensive during the sale, and I've got enough to keep me going for a week.

Somewhat related -- looks like Torchlight 2 won't be out until mid/late September as they're going to be at PAX Prime or whatever it's called. Of course you have those in denial saying they could release before and still be going to PAX but that makes no sense. Not really surprised. When I saw 'Summer 2012' I knew they would milk it every day and wait until September 20th or whenever Summer technically ends.

Well Hard Reset, Raven Shield (keep losing the damn discs) for me so far. Good price for CK2, shame I already have it, heh.

New flash deal = Force Unleashed 2 lololololol. Also looks like it's 12 hours long so, at least for us blessed Kwa-folk, we don't have to stay up all night monitoring the flash deals.

Still gotta stay up for at least 3 more hours to round out the flash deals and new community vote!

Checked out Rayman Origins, too. Only did the first two levels but it gave a damn fine impression. Secrets and tons of collectables, and the game's pretty as hell. $15's still a bit pricy but I can tell I'm gonna enjoy it.
Also snagged the Bard's Tale remake (It was $2.50! Tony Jay! TONY JAY!), CK2 DLC, and Warlock DLC. Definitely not a great first day of the sale for me, but eh. Surely Gaben will put that Anno 2070 pack up for $10.
