I suppose I will have to go back and try it again at some point but man that was one dog of a game. I have over 1,000 games on Steam and that is tied with Game of Thrones: Genesis as my most regretted purchase.

I still feel like with all the other stuff they have on sale + 75% off, the Steam big picture deals going on, Amazon sega bundles, multiple indie bundles etc there are just much better ways you can spend $5.

does the 35% voucher you get after preordering has an expiration date?

I believe it's supposed to be 21 days.

I'm with you on that one. I got Stronghold 3 in a 2 for $15 from Get Games (I think that was the sale) with Binary Domain. I just pretend I paid $15 for Binary Domain which was surprisingly really fun.

Is $10.50 the cheapest Endless Space has been?

Unless you count a probable mistake sale that was quickly yanked from Gamersgate a week or so ago and required finagling buying blue coins with the G2PO code then using those coins to get the (now dead) IGN discount and G2PO discount again to get it significantly cheaper then yes.

TL;DR Yes.

Quickly yanked? It was a daily deal and was $10 without any "finagling". The codes/coins just dropped it to $7.40. No IGN code? In a rush? Just using code G2PO took it under $10.

It was replaced as the daily a couple of hours before the next-day rollover, but I assumed they'd simply run out of codes because $7.40 was the cheapest yet by far.

do you guys think Endless Space will drop further?

If it's not $7.49 in the Steam sale in a couple of weeks, a third-party are bound to hit that area (again) in January.

I've been playing it recently, and it does feel better as a $7.50 game than a $10 game, if that makes any sense. :P Good, not great!

$7.50 in the nearish future is a real possibility so if you aren't going to play it right now, I would hold out. I tried the game on the free weekend and I really enjoyed it, but still probably a $7.50 purchase for me.

hmm I'd like the emperor edition but wish it was $10

When I checked when the deals flipped at midnight it was there then in the morning it got replaced with something else. I didn't notice it being the deal the day before and I was checking there every day during that black Friday week. To me that was quickly yanked but maybe you saw something different in the Asia region. I don't know.

Darn it, and I just bought Secret World from Microsoft for $10 on Black Friday... now it's $5.25.... poop

Does anyone know if I can activate The Secret World on steam from gmg?

Wow... the price on Secret World has dropped so much. Part of me wants to get it at this price and enjoy one month relatively cheap. Another part wants to wait to see when/if it goes F2P.

Then there's the small possibility EA considers it an overall failure and shuts it down completely.

EA's still got Warhammer Online going and that has even less people playing than the Secret World. You're might be right about it going free to play soon though, they probably should have done that from the beginning.

I'd assume not as it's an EA product so I assume it's going to be Origin.

I played it and it was fun for the month but I didn't feel compelled to continue my sub. Part of the issue was a dorked up chat client that made the world feel pretty lonely (I like an amount of OOC chatter even if I'm soloing).

I was in the TSW Beta - and the game's like 30 GB....
...do you really wanna download all of that? :P

I'd rather have that huge-sized game on disc(s)....
