Also people don't buy all the dlc and aren't meant to. It's a bit like a physical model train hobbyist of course would not buy ever single train set ever made on Earth.

I think a lot of us have this idea, no doubt encouraged by publishers, that we simply must have every single piece of dlc ever or it's not the complete experience but a lot of games aren't like that and it's all meant to be optional and you just get what you like.

This comes up over and over again and I think some people have real difficulties with the concept of optional dlc.

Heads up on The Secret World thing. The free episode/content you get if you register before 2013 is going to cost $5. So if you are willing to wait till it goes for 50% off or more you will save money overall.

Meaning if you want to live on the edge, you can potentially wait until the next set of flash deals (I wouldn't recommend it).

I love living on the edge.
Correct me if I am wrong. I think if you get the steam version, you can only purchase FC points with steam wallet.

BTW, for anyone who is a real cheap ass. The game director said that "if you are a free player and you absolutely refuse to pay for anything, you will eventually get access to the content, it will just take some time."

yeah if you don't care about Steam and the Intiate Pack (which is cosmetic stuff) you're likely better off getting in Amazon's sale on the 1st.

in before that war starts up again....

Still waiting patiently on Deadspace 1/2. I somehow missed playing this series and wanted to catch up before the new one's released in February.

Well I just bought it on Steam now and I don't give a shit what anyone thinks of that.

Since I'm not one other to tell other people where they should and shouldn't buy their games everyone else is free to buy it wherever they want for whatever reason as far a I am concerned.

It was 2.49 twice this year. I was pissed when I missed it the first time.

Since I'm basically buying back ups of console titles I already own, I need:

Red Faction (the original) at $2.50
Fallout GOTY for less than $5.00
Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway for $2.50
Dead Space Pack for under $10.00
Fallout: New Vegas for less than $5.00

I think that's about it, but I'll probably buy any bundle that's under $10.00 and any individual title without DRM that's under $2.00.

I just re-picked them both up during the Halloween sale after completing both on PS3. Easily one of my favorite AAA franchises.

Well I, for one, will be judging you. Like this:

Red Faction from GMG is $2.10 after the 30% off voucher. Yes, it is Steam...

So what games are people hoping to see go on a daily/flash deal that haven't yet? For me I have a small list, some of which I am surprised haven't turned up yet.

Back to the Future
Sam & Max Complete Pack
The Secret World
Lost Planet games
Might & Magic 6
Settlers 7
Silent Hunter
Condemned Criminal Origins

That is what I can think of off the top of my head I've been waiting for still.

I hope the 2 games will be 1.87. It's 2.49 now for 1 game and for some reason, I didn't see the sale at 2.49.

I'm hoping the Telltale Pack gets a daily or flash.

It is strange that the Fallout series hasn't shown up yet . . . it's usually there. If you do get it, you'll notice that Fallout III looks WAY better on PC than on Xbox, especially with some user-mods you can patch on.

I'm waiting for Torchlight 2 4-pack to come back... It was a flash deal on the 1st day of this sale (went out to buy a Steam wallet w/ my Gamestop credit, but got home too late), and haven't seen it as a daily or repeat deal yet surprisingly :(

Been waiting on a killer Shogun 2 deal. Bundle all of the DLC, all of the expansions.

Looking at what everyone has today, I think I'm going to go through the day without buying anything from anywhere. I feel so empty inside.
