I really wish Capcom stopped wasting space on this. None of their deals are ever any interesting.

With that said, I'm thinking Magicka and perhaps Bioshock 2 and Battlefield.

Super Meat Boy sale is pretty disappointing if that price is correct considering it was 75% of on christmas. I already havei t so no big deal for me but yeah.
 
Today's deals are pretty... mediocre--as most of the sale has been so far. Fable 3 is kinda tempted, but WTF is with RE5 never going $10 or below?

This sale seems to be more "That's an okay price" than OMFG I CAN'T AFFORD TO NOT BUY ALL OF THESE GAMES!

Is it just me?
 
Another vote for Hoard...I was really surprised by that one.

Does Magicka have any value whatsoever as a single player game? I'm not likely to ever bother with the multi, and that seems like the focus.

You're a fool if you don't pick up Darksiders for $5. It's a great game that is worth so much more than that.

Kind of a disappointing price for Meat Boy. I was considering double dipping if it was cheap, but $7.50 is pretty bad considering it started out as $10 on both Steam and XBLA and it's already been cheaper than that before.

Why is Capcom even included in this sale? Their prices don't seem like much of a sale at all.

And I just bought PvZ on XBLA the other day for 600 points....damn it.

Can we get Capcom and Acitivision off the sales? They are just wasting space with deals that are no deals, sweet jesus...

Man I'm torn on Bioshock 2 and I see 1 is dirt cheap too. My PC can run 1 on max but according to the specs I can't run 2 on high due to my graphics card.

And damn I need a steam friend so I can comment on their page. lol

How is Bad Company 2?
It's a bit of a mess, but it's fun in places. Vietnam makes it much better, but only has a few good maps. Best thing to do is unlock the Carl Gustav and harvest all the tears.

So do I want just the Magika base game, or the complete? Considering a 4-pack (once my CC is straightened out, on the phone with support now!) so I can gift it to a couple friends for some co-op, but if the DLC is must-have that may change my mind.

Everyone who doesn't have Darksiders should get it. I've heard the PC port isn't the best but past that its a quality game, especially for a fiver.

RE5's price isn't great, but I'm still going to bite. Cos I really want it.

Magicka, Darksiders, and SMB are all must buys. If you don't own them, get 'em!

Capcom still doesn't get it.

Anyone on the fence for Darksiders pull the trigger.

Joe Mad art + zelda influenced game design = Win

Game is awesome

How does Darksiders control on keyboard and mouse? Do most recommend a gamepad?

I use a 360 wired controller. I think kb+m may be a little tough with the way the game is designed to be played with a controller.

This sale is great for my wallet, but really bad for my happiness :(

Again, nothing worthwhile for me.

Finally getting Darksiders. May pick up another game, either Aliens vs Predator or Magicka

Get Magicka. It's a shame that people think the game is trash. It's a lot of fun.....when it works. :)
 
This is kind of off-topic, but why do I have to re-login to the Steam website like every 5 minutes? Has Valve never heard of cookies? So incredibly frustrating.
