Dishonored up for Pre-Purchase: $59.99 "Pre-Purchase Now and receive Arx Fatalis for free plus an additional discount on the Quakecon Bundle!"
I'll see if GreenMan Gaming has a better deal, since they are fixing the payment issues and will do another 20% off once it's fixed.

Dishonored 60 bucks? Fuck off Bethesda and your console pricing model. Also, Arx Fatalis as a preorder bonus, a six bucks game...
I'm assuming you mean will you play it which I would awnser yes.
Looks like they slashed the base price of the New Vegas DLC from $10 to $5. If New Vegas stuff gets a 75% daily the DLC could be super cheap. People should buy it.
Anyways, I really need to get around to playing Morrowind again but getting it up to speed with my PC is a bitch.

It's not open world but I'm pretty sure there are some random elements (targets placed in different areas) to the stages and multiple ways to progress through them.

Man, the size of the Skyrim ad.

Dishonored pre-ordered. Last games left on my to-buy for the year list are Xcom and Heart of the Swarm.
It's a smaller sandbox, kind on par with a Hitman game based off of what I've seen. It's not an open world game but it isn't hyper linear either. There are supposed to be multiple paths to a given goal.

! That was on my wishlist, and I think it had no discount at all in the summer sale (aside from the bundle I did not want).
I guess I'll get it even though none of the DLC appears to be discounted. Maybe that will go on a future sale.

More of open-ended missions, playing and completing missions however you want to.
XCom and Assassin's Creed 3 left for me and I'm not too sure on AC3.

They finally fixed the RAGE region pricing too, I wonder if we'll see it hit 75% this time.

I was actually hoping they'd surprise us with Dawnguard today too given that the Steam achievements for Skyrim have been updated.
I can see that happening, I bet they will announce it at Quakecon.
$60 is lolz, even from someone who swears by Dark Messiah and its bigass boot shenanigans.
I hope something decent pops up this weekend for me to buy. It's my birthday in a few days and I wanna blow cash on something that doesn't actually suck. So, y'know, not Skyrim, in other words. Gaben pls.

I find it funny that there's people who are still surprised/shocked when they see new PC games at 60$...
It's gonna be the norm sooner rather than later. We're just very lucky to always have a ton of promotions on PC.
It's just like games on XBLA that started at 10$ then moved to 15$ and are now slowly moving to 20$...
That sucks but eh, that's how it goes.

Oblivion and Morrowind are also on Daily (66% off)
Dishonored is now up for pre-order.

Just payed $32 for Dark Souls, feels good, not buying a $60 game day 1 unless I really want it AND it is released the same day as the consoles version.
um no, it's just large developers trying to enforce this rule for AAA+ games. Most developers still have the sense to price games reasonably.

$60 for Dishonored? Definitely gonna wait on that. Pre-order bonus is a joke.
Never got my Skyrim hat as GAME blocked me from buying Skyrim during QuakeCon last year >_>
Wait for the new version of Doom 3 coming up.

Has it been announced yet if the retail version of Dishonoured is Steamworks or not?
Steamworks.

I was just wondering that too, could find it for like 50% cheaper here if it is.
Edit: Awesome, I will continue to not use the steam store for pre-orders and new purchases then.

It's always the same people, Bethesda, Blizzard and Activision. I don't think PC games will get expensive.
EDIT: Add EA to the list too.

So just like Borderlands then 26 euro in Gamestop, 50 on Steam.
Too bad I'll be getting Borderlands on PS3 for co-op
I agree about these. I never buy from Blizzard or Activision, and the only $60 title I can remember buying in recent years was Skyrim. And that was at release, so there might have been a tiny Steam discount.
I didn't regret Skyrim. For one thing, there's a lot of moddable stuff and community support, and I think that's great. The game is still selling well, as far as I know, without the need for lots of paid DLC. Dawnguard is the first thing I'm aware of that they've charged for.
Just means it'll bomb all the quicker and be 15 dollars by the Holiday sale.
*awaits the wrath of Derrick*
I deliberately didn't buy it because "i was on a budget". so now I have a loophole in my own system
Also, It seems fallout NV is now cheaper... If it goes 75% off, it'll be 8 bucks now instead of 10.

Wait to see what deal GMG will have if any. I would have loved a demo with pre-purchase that would be amazing.
It is. Interestingly, it's $30 on PC and $40 on consoles. (US prices.)
