Was hoping for a better price on brotherhood, 25 euro is still a bit much. Collection price on the other hand is insane but I already have 1 and 2 on Steam.

Two Worlds 2 is cheaper in the UK than it would be to get it gifted by an American GAFer. Shock horror!

That's the only one for me today.

Man, between that, The Witcher, The Witcher 2 and Vampire... I've got a whole lot of RPGing to do this Summer.

Men of War assault squad is some of the most fun co-op gaming I've ever had (in an RTS).

Totally worth it, if you like that kind of thing. Also, it's miles beyond Company of Heroes.

Has the voice acting improved? That's what turned me away from the first game, it was just too difficult to listen to.

I HIGHLY recommend Tropico 3 at that price. It's a fantastic city-builder style game and the campaign has some well thought out and challenging scenarios. It's also got a fair bit of style and humor, for under $4 it's a must buy.

Is the expansion worth getting also?

How's $44 for both Dragon Age games? Never played either of them.

Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition is worth it for 10,20. About Dragon Age II? Ehh, no maybe someone that actually liked it can sell you on that. Still way too high in price.

Never played any games in the AC series before, so that might be my buy for the day.

Is it worth going for all 3? It might be better just to get 2 now and pick up 3 the last day if I enjoyed 2, as people seem to think 1 is relatively poor.

1 on PC's is better because they actually added some additional mission types and it's gorgeous as fuck.

2 + Bro are fucking insanely good. Ezio's tale is fantastic and they upped their game so much.

What's the word on Transformers and Ass Creed 2? Those are the only ones I would consider.

Btw I've never been a big fan of the Ass Creed franchise nor have I played any.

Nonsense, AC1 is a fantastic game. The only problem with AC1 is that it doesn't have subtitles. Really.

No! NOO! We're losing him, men! Get me two doses of 75% off, stat!

I almost succumbed to the 75% off deal on Transformers. Almost. I eagerly went in for the kill when I saw...

You already own Transformers™: War for Cybertron™"
Click to expand...

Whoops. :(
Worse still, I've even bought the same game multiple times on different DD services, because I didn't know I had it.

I think I have a problem. *foams at mouth*

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
If you don't have Tropico 3 yet, it's a must at $3.74. Fun game!

Same goes for Torchlight and Defense Grid... great prices on good games. DA2 deal is a headscratcher.. not really trying there EA?

How much is the AssCreed pack in the US? Because I think the € people has the highest price. Anyone willing to gift it to me / I paypal the money?

€27 euro is a good price for AC trilogy considering Brotherhood is €25 on it's own. If you're planning on buying the pack, space out your playthroughs because they're all incredibly similar mechanically.

People complaining about these deals are ridiculous.

Every Steam sales thread is the same, apparently.

Yep. Oh and also all that repetitive crap before each assassination that was made purely to waste your time.

No subtitles!?!? Unacceptable!!!!

Yeah I'm totally gonna buy the 3 pack. Thanks for the heads up on the AC games. The most expensive part of this sale is going to be the 360 controller I need to get for all these games I am buying.

Yep. Though I complain about Activision and Capcom's "sales" for the most part, because they usually suck. :p

download Motionjoy, emulate 360 controller, enjoy.
Click to expand...

It requires me to re-boot every time to get it work, but once it's working it works flawlessly. I don't use the bluetooth, just a long USB. Helps to have the 360 controller memorized for games like JC2 as the prompts are X/Y/A/B instead of X/O/[]//\.. but it works great.
