I really hope Gamersgate gets the Dishonored keys before the weekend... :( I'm checking the game in my library on the site once in a while as I don't know if they'll send an e-mail when they have it.

On their Facebook page they said they've contacted Bethesda and hope to have some more keys today.

I haven't been reading this thread in awhile, is this something you are doing regularly/daily? Super awesome and thanks for doing it!

If someone hasn't posted the new deals I'll post them yeah, and I try to keep a list of all the currently active deals in a recent post. You're welcome!

A few just went up on GMG coincidentally:

[GMG] - use code GMG20-GGN5D-FC3NA for an additional 20% off
 
Can't wait for Gearbox's other classic, Aliens Colonial Marines to get its GOTY, then I can get fucked all at once instead of being nickle'd, dime'd, and fucked.

RUMOR: Joss Whedon has Saoirse Ronan in mind for Scarlet Witch in Avengers 2

SRSW.jpg


We're a good two years off before we see Marvel's The Avengers 2, but we already know that Joss Whedon is working hard on the script and it's been confirmed a week ago that the sister and brother team of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver will be joining the cast as the big additions to the team this time around.

There are probably a lot of thoughts about who should be cast in these roles and how they should be portrayed, but we've learned that Marvel and Joss definitely have a few ideas already and one of them is that the duo are going to be younger than the rest of the team.

Although Joss is still writing and probably not ready to send anything out to actors, for the two roles, they're generally looking for actors in their 20s and we've heard word that the "prototype" for their Scarlet Witch is none other than Irish actress Saoirse Ronan. Except something to note is that they're going "British" for the role rather than trying to have actors playing Eastern Europeans.

I wasn't sure if I should unlock Brutal Legend in the DF humble bundle since I already played it on the 360, but decided I want it on PC too. Not going to include Broken Age since I was already a backer though (which reminds me I should eventually catch up with all the project updates).

I wish R* would re-release the DD version of Manhunt 2. It died with the sale of D2D to GameFly.

Is that the cheapest GTAIV has been? I owned it on the PS3 but never played it through. I wouldn't mind giving it another shot on the PC but $10 seems a little stiff for such an old game.

for the Pinball connoisseurs, is there a relative debate for Pinball FX or Pinball Arcade as to which is the better game? Or is it just simply a preference for what tables you like?
 
Well, that's a Max Payne 3 deal. Maybe if there was a guarantee that I could use that $5 on GTA V on PC, I'd consider it but, who knows when that will launch. I think I'll wait for something a little better, since in reality, I won't be playing it for at least a few weeks.

There is no debate. Pinball Arcade is superior in every single way.

Yeah the deal is not really that hot as is. Code expires on the 28th. I'm thinking those $45 bundles must be misprices, since they're $15 more expensive than buying games separately. Also, sorry for the text vomit.

It appears that the date is also a mistake, Tony says it was supposed to be the 28th of next year.
