The Tomb Raider series. You can still grab those deals now.

Yup, been using it since the 15th and so far so good (Radeon 5670). I was using beta 11 before. I've been playing a lot of Sleeping Dogs and framerate has improved.
I have been hearing good things about the upcoming beta but it's been pushed to next week.
That's what I thought, just surprised to see the prices still so low so figured it must have been something else. Thanks!
Traffic Giant is the only thing I can think of that scratches the same itch as Cities in Motion, which isn't odd since Cities in Motion is essentially a Traffic Giant clone. OpenTTD is quite different in nature I feel. Victoria II is pretty great, and unique even within its already niche genre. The focus on economy and socio-political developments is one not found in any other Paradox game.
I wonder about all those releases. Are they improving games directly or only if you use some special Catalyst feature, like they have some profile for each game.
This shit should be illegal. It makes the library look hideous, disorganized and stupid.I couldn't help but notice Squeenix screwed the pooch with Angel of Darkness:
Reminds me of Prototype -> PROTOTYPE 2, or a couple of games that added a trademark or TM character to the name of the sequel (luckily I don't have any of the latter).

At 5$? Absolutely. I found it to be a surprisingly great experience.
I have 2 hours to force myself not to spend more money on games. After that, I have the whole weekend to try not to buy Batman: Arkham City GOTY from GMG.
And then, if I have some more time, I may even play a game I already own for 5 minutes or so.
I already have Legend, Anniversary and Underworld, would I get the chance to give away the extra copies if I got the Tomb Raider Complete pack?
And in that case, would anyone interested in Legend, Anniversary and Underworld only be willing to split that Complete pack with me? I'm only interested in the first six games (the old ones) but their price combined is the same as the complete bundle
EDIT: oh, also you'd have to get the pack if you're in the US because it's more expansive here in Europe, but I could paypal in advance

Unless explicitly stated on the product page, you won't get spares. The exceptions to this rule are within a few Valve bundles and a Dawn of War 2 bundle, which are noted here.

IIRC, if you buy the bundle, those 3 will got your inventory for gifting.
Umm I could trade you 1-2 games for TR Legend and/or Ann.?And in that case, would anyone interested in Legend, Anniversary and Underworld only be willing to split that Complete pack with me?

Oh, I see.
But what if I buy the bundle selecting the "put it into my inventory" option? Would I get only one item (the bundle itself then, not 9 different items) until I redeem it? That would make sense I guess, so there's no way at all to "split" a bundle sold via Steam. Pity though

Just the one item, since the bundle is its own sub/product.

So quick question, Max Paybe 3.
Should I bother beating 1 and 2 first before playing 3 or is it not needed?
I have beat 1 before but never played much of 2.

EDIT: Well assuming you miss out on the discount ^_^;
Arkham City was originally Batman®: Arkham City™. WB eventually removed the former but not the latter. Similarly, Assassin's Creed III is still Assassin`s Creed® III. The ® doesn't bother me as much as the bloody grave accent.
They're cheaper on Steam for the time being.

Ooops, forgot about that ^_^;
The Dawn of War ones are the best. Too bad THQ isn't around to edit them out anymore
Yes, they are 2 of the best games I've ever played. Do yourself a favor and play them (replay MP1, play MP2 and then feast yourself on MP3).
That TM or ® characters look horrible, no matter which game they're on. But it's specially infuriating when some of the games in a franchise have it and others don't.

Well you can always gift Alive to me, you'll feel alot better with yourself.

Will do

Sega is, though!
Edit: Today's Daily is half off Skyrim. Also includes DLC (except Dragonborn).
Whoa, Skyrim as a daily deal not during a big sale?
Bethesda must be going under or something.
A GoTY/Complete Edition wouldn't be a bad way to commemorate two years since release.

I was just thinking today how I wanted Skyrim on sale. Now that it is in front of me, I can't pull the trigger. I'm so glad I am not as impulsive as I once was.
I was under the impression there's more DLC to come?

I would have to say that a large chunk of people who are buying bundles aren't buying bundles looking exclusively for games that are the best in each genre alone. I bought this one despite owning everything but Deponia already. Seeing as how I bought it during a Happy Hour, which is currently going again right now, I was able to get two bundles for a little over the price of one. It is a very decent bundle for Indie Gala, and it is worth mentioning in this Steam related thread for people who might not check the Indie Bundle thread. I found worth in it despite my having signed up for Steam several years ago and having a somewhat large Steam game library.
Thanks for the heads up, Viperik.
Yes sir, it's Dragonborn
Other than that, I meant. So, nothing else besides Dragonborn? Then I'm probably misremembering.

I apologize if this is old news, but I just checked my shelf at www.gamersgate.com and they gave me serial keys for the steam codes they ran out of during their Bethesda Collection price mistake.
Only Japan and Eastern Europe have region-specific subs relating to the DLC.
so skyrim NA can work with skyrim dlcs from EU?

Also the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Kiedis and Gaben are apparently good friends. Or so I've heard.

Which is relevant to a steam thread how exactly?
Exactly.

It changed from Tomb Raider to Deus Ex well after the daily changed. It was around 6-7 hours later. Give it time.
