Thanks for Titan Quest, AngerdX!!
Bound in Blood is pretty good. The other two (Call of Juarez and The Cartel) aren't so great. Very little in common with Gunslinger, though. It doesn't have the quirky narrative to go with it, but you get to switch between the two brothers which is pretty interesting.
The first two are very different, but fun in their own way. They're slower paced with a more serious story. Cartel is total garbage though.

Both those games are imo awesome (though I think Gunslinger is a little bit better than BD) and $7 for both of them is a steal.

Finally back from my 2 week ban, can't believe all the give-aways I missed. Have been keeping up with the thread and crafting away for Team Green (for what's good it's worth). I will have a few more games of my own to give away shortly, just need to figure out what I already own.
Promotion for a $6 gift card. You text MOVIE to 78787 and answer a few questions (birthday and email address). You can enter once per day and it's US only.
M&M is running a promotion in the US where you can possibly win 6$ prepaid cards.
Using them for your Steam account is a bad idea, though.

Finished the Cold, Cold Heart DLC for Batman Arkham Origins. It's pretty good. It's a little longer than Harley Quinn's Revenge, but it's much better due to very little backtracking, the good encounter setups, and the better story (Yeah, it's basically Arkhamized "Heart of Ice," but I didn't mind seeing its elements again). Well worth the $2.49 it's at now.

Of course it's now that Goat Simulator goes on sale, when I have $1.24. The real kicker is I'll have more funds after it goes back up in priceSTEARN SALE!!!!
It might end up a daily or flash again.
B... But... It's only 7 am... 5 more minutes, Rhak-rhak, please?
The combat in Risen is just terrible all around, but if you join the mages and max out your fireball you can pretty much skip it.
The dialogue (especially while pickpocketing) is pretty great though.

Chocolate pieces covered in a thin candy shell. They are quite delicious!
So only Bound in Blood is worth a buy?
------------------------------------------------------
Also I just won an M&Ms mastercard. I'm already locked out of marketplace until Tuesday (tried to enter my debit card earlier)
Should I might as well use the mastercard? or wait till I'm off restriction? I'm thinking use it now since I'm already restricted, there's nothing else they can do to me right?

No, not yet.

bad gameplay lol
So what's everyone using their M&M's money on now? Amazon stuff I'd imagine?
Really would like to know if anyone's had any success in the past couple of days with just using the prepaid card to buy something directly from their cart on Steam rather than using it to fund their wallet (market lockout and all).

I don't really care about being locked out of the market, so I've just used them on Steam. Hopefully I don't find any foils while I'm banned, though.

Fallout 3 Game of the Year --MB-3F53B696EE917EF7- Taken by nhlducks35. 14 entrants total.
You were okay spending money on Goat Simulator, but didn't feel Borderlands 2 was worth it?
If you're craving more cowboy style games, yeah, Bound in Blood is good enough and can be had for under $5 several times a year. Check out the demo to get a feel for it http://store.steampowered.com/app/21980/
Not won in the last week?! Jeebus!
This is what I've done the two times I've won. Just bought games under $6 and have yet to be locked out of the market. A friend won today and bought a game for $5 and was able to use the remaining dollar on an Amazon gift card
I hear Goat Simulator's a rally fun really in-depth game. Don't hate.

Yeah, they probably wanted to have fun.
Bound in Blood is good, the first one is alright, The Cartel is absolutely terrible.

Gotta spread the love around.
Blands isn't very good, tho.
I mean, I'm sure there's people that like it, but as a single player experience, it's like playing a really bad MMO with samey drops and the same 5 enemies that just become greater and greater bullet sponges, and the story just isn't interesting enough.

The title of that page sounds like some kind of punishment.
Haha yeah and a good game too!
So the lockout is only triggered by adding funds to the wallet, not by buying directly?

I like how Unrest is near the bottom of the list but you can't buy it since it's not out yet. Not even a preorder option.
LOL, you're right
just a guess, but shovel knight isn't on there right?

Holy crap you aren't going to believe this...
I never got into this whole Steam market thing because really I don't care about it at all - but Steam keeps finding ways to get people to have to go through it so I checked it out and out of curiosity put a TF2 hat up for sale (I don't care about the hats and haven't played in a while).
Someone bought it. For $200.
