Was thinking about it too, but they don't add on Steam and there's SecuROM either way. Somebody brought up the Steam GTA Complete Collection sale so I'll probably hold out for that.

So instead of the 15% discount, Gamersgate now does a 15% worth of blue coins after purchase?

It does that for specific games, such as Mass Effect 3 and Alan Wake. For most games it takes off 15% directly from the games price.

Oh, I see. Thanks.

15% off upfront would been awesome on ME3.

^_^ I know what you mean. I feel a little like a fool for jumping on Amazon's $16 ME3: DD, since I could have picked it up now for the same with a 15% mark-of-IGN discount (20% if you count blue coins)... I really need to keep that in mind for full-price games like Torchlight II.

That's a GREAT deal.
ME3 is an excellent game, for the most part...

...namely, until the last 5-10 minutes actually happen.
Namely, after Shepard gets beamed aboard to finally meet up w/ The Illusive Man.
It's pretty much downhill, after that...

Sims 3 games, stuff packs, expansions, bundles, etc on sale today.
Sims 3: Showtime - Regular Edition [Expansion] (80% off) = $6
Most of them Sims 3 products = 60% off

EDIT:
I'm in for Showtime Regular.

Exactly. You might be one of the few who says it's brilliant (and I'll never understand those people), or you'll be like the majority who find it completely maddeningly bad.

But yes, other than that, fantastic game. Mulitplayer is a hoot! 150 hours+ so far for me.

It IS a brilliant game...until the last few minutes, honestly.

I do understand & agree w/ the complaints about the ending being not that good (before the Extended Cut) - but the rest of the game is absolutely FANTASTIC. The not-so-good last 5-10 minutes CANNOT destroy the other fantastic 40 hours or so that I spent w/ the SP.

I wish the ending was better and more fleshed-out (especially after 3 games)...but it just isn't. IMHO - I'm often NOT fully happy or NOT fully satisfied w/ how many games end, anyways. So many games leave strands hanging blatantly or end on abrupt notes like that - to set-up for DLC, expansions, sequels, etc. So, it IS a minor complaint on the ending, IMHO - and one of the few complaints I have about this game.

Granted, I ain't touched the game, since the Extended Cut came out. I should check out the Extended Cut ending - which I did DL & all.

EDIT:
While I did like the MP, I just wish when I played it that there were more MP maps and whatnot; and do wish that there was more variety in the objectives.

Thanks for the heads up on The Sims. Just picked up Showtime and it activated on Origin as the Limited Edition.

That's a crazy cheap price for Showtime. Comes to around $5 if you have the IGN discount. IMHO it is one of the better Sims 3 expansions. You aren't missing much by not getting the Katie Perry extras either.

Damn great deal but already bought all these on Origin this morning.

I activated it on Sims3.com and yeah...and then it showed up on Origin as LE, as well.
Must be LE b/c of the extra Venue & Stage stuff that comes w/ it? [shrug]

Regardless - I like Showtime quite a bit; and LOVE the travelling DJ booth.

I really liked Late Night - and this (Showtime) to me looked like Late Night Pt 2.
So far, liking Showtime.

There are 2 stuff packs (Master Suite and Outdoor Living) at 80% off as well for $3.40 after IGN discount. I assume these are price errors as Showtime is no longer 80% off.

Daily Deal
Test Drive Unlimited 2 = $5

Midweek Deal
Tropico series -> games, packs, DLC, etc = 70-75% off.
Click here for details.

For the weekend we got Assassin's Creed 1, 2 (Deluxe), and Brotherhood for $5 each ($7.50 for deluxe Brotherhood).
Assassin's Creed Revelations is $12.
Also 30% blue coins for Assassin's Creed 3.

The AC Complete pack is $20 but its worth noting that it doesn't include AC Revelations.

Two weeks and still zero response. I sent in another ticket, and we'll see what happens. *sigh*

Didn't AC: Revelation from GG last time actually unlock the Gold edition with the DLC? I wonder if that'll be the case this time.

Edit: Just looked. Yup, that was GamersGate. Came with Mediterranean Travelers Pack, Lost Archives and Ancestors DLC. I'm not saying it will this time around.

That might push me over but I think the dlc is all multiplayer anyway which I'm not interested in.

I have all the games on 360 and haven't played any but the first. Every time they go on sale on pc I debate rebuying them. They supposidly arent much better on pc performance wise and you have to deal with all the crappy ubi drm. They patched a lot of it out though. My problem is I've gotten to the point that if I don't have it on pc I don't think about it and don't play it. If these were on steam I'd probably jump on the deal.
