Xanadu.
Xanadu Next
Gurumin is not very great, but for the asking price I'd say it's worth it
Definitely get Xanadu Next

Is Broforce a good game?
I liked Gurumin but I wouldn't class it as one of Falcom's best games. Xanadu Next is though, if you have to pick between the two that would be my choice, it's really good.

For the sale price sure. Playing solo gets stale faster than co-op play though. It's not particularly "deep". You'll basically see what the game has to offer in the first 30 minutes beyond unlocking the new characters.
Ok, so I just purchased a new gtx 1080, what should I buy to give it a workout? I don't really have time for multiplayer shooters (plus I'm terrible at them) Ideas?
Check my Steam profile for what I like.

I like Arkane, but it doesn't seem like a game I'm going to get $40 worth out of.
The Outsider doesn't have any allegiance though, so there's no one for him to betray, and he doesn't actively seek to cause any sort of death or mayhem. He actually mocks or criticizes you for going high chaos, and in Knife of Dunwall he starts appearing to Daud again because he thought it was interesting that Daud had started showing regret. One of the complaints people have about Dishonored 2 is even that they made him more human instead of an indifferent personification of the Void.
Arkham Knight? I see that you've played City but you don't have Knight. It did run terribly initially and was even temporarily removed from sale, but it's since been patched and you should have enough power to brute force your way through any remaining performance hiccups.
Definitely get Xanadu Next. Gurumin isn't as good, but it's still quite fun and definitely well worth $3.49.
Hitman Season 1 from last year is great. Don't know if you'll like it but it can be quite demanding even for a 1080 from what I've read.
I have absolution, (completely forgot that I did) maybe i'll give it a try, it has a free demo.

Firewatch is more then worth it's price right now, if a 4 hour long story focused game is something you want, and the setting appeal to you.
I would like to recommend the Strategy Game of the Year bundle with XCOM 2 and Civilization VI. With the bundle, you get another 25% off than buying each individually on sale. The total is 41.83 where as if you bought Civilization separate it would be 35.99 alone. $21 for both games is decent. Pretty good savings. That makes XCOM 2 $14. I love strategy games and never played XCOM before and I am a believer. The game is awesome and I am eager for the expansion. I'm a new XCOM fan now lol.
I already have XCOM 2 thanks to Humble Monthly and I'm eying the bundle because I'm interested in Civ VI because it is sub 30 but probably wait for the next sale. What are the chances that the expansion for Civ will release until the Holiday Sale?

DOOM
The Witcher 3 (which I see you already have)
You can also try the 3D Mark demo and Unigine Heaven Benchmark for your new card.
If you are in need of a simulation/puzzle game to relax to and de-stress with, I'm recommending Demolition Company Gold Edition.
Just like it says on a tin, play the part of a demolition and tear down buildings with all sorts of tools from sledgehammers to explosives to cranes. You don't have to do it perfectly to get through them, but I found figuring out how to do it best is satisfying as a puzzle fan.

Is Yooka Laylee worth $30 USD? I heard they just patched it to fix some camera issues. I was a massive banjo fan back on the day.
To be perfectly honest, I didn't feel that Playtonic did enough with the idea of expanding worlds, which carried over to the transformations, which are level-specific and not terribly interesting. That being said, if you love collectables, then, well, you're talking to somebody who spent ~20 hours with the game and unlocked every achievement.
In fewer words, there's a lot to love, but also a fair bit to dislike, depending on where your tastes and nostalgia lie.
Edit: Oh, and think nothing of the super-secret pirate skulls. Collecting all of them unlocks nothing but an achievement. No secret world or any such thing.

Hmmm thanks Jase.... maybe I'll wait for a lower price then, $40 AUD might be a bit much. Unless somewhere sells a Steam code cheaper?

The reviews I saw were pretty negative. Is that more of a love it or hate it thing?

From what I've heard both are great games, but I've only played Doom and can vouch for it.
They're different genres though so think what kind of game you want to play, mindless old school shooter or stealth action.
You need a crap tonne of SSD space for Doom. If you're going to play either before the next sale, get the one you're most likely to play now, otherwise, Doom might go on sale for Hallowe'en. Also, both have demos you can DL and try.

Trails in the sky SC, chapter 1 down. I was a little disappointed at first but the chapter got a bit better at the end. It's got me looking forward to the next chapter at least.

That's tough. They're both fantastic for completely different reasons. The former is furiously aggressive action, that encourages you to move and get up close and dive into the midst of battle with smart enemy placements and AI. Super satisfying guns and shooting.
While the latter is a masterclass in level design, with each able to entertain you for a tens of hours as you master the clockwork of NPCs and opportunities and paths to complete your hits. Super satisfying social stealth puzzles, with tons of content and challenges
Do you know how much? I bought Shadows of Mordor and haven't played it because of just that issue.
Funny that I would spend $10 more on a game because of memory but I guess that's where I am.
I have deinstalled Doom because it took up around 90GB on my hard drive. Hitman is around 65GB.

It still downloads them initially, want them or not.
Hot tip: if you are thinking about getting Arkham Knight, it's quite a bit cheaper on Bundlestars right now:
