Taken care of, thanks to a kindly CAG.

Wow thanks, Tony! I'm in. Hoping for one of the following: Grid 2, F1 2013 or Defiance.

A good older sandbox game, but the PC version is often on sale for $5 or less. I'm not sure how this compares to previous console version deals.

A while back the Collector's Editions with flight stick were marked down to $39.99 in store. Might be tough to find one now. http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=332773

If you're looking for modern graphics and photo-realistic eye candy, you're not going to get it in these games. The SimBin titles are simulators that put the emphasis on physics and a realistic feel of racing. A search for some screenshots and videos will give you an idea of what you're getting...

GTR2 is a good bet, it is older, but has some features the newer series doesn't, like night races. It also has plenty of mods. Race: Injection is a good second choice and it's a bundle that does include the base game Race 07 and a handful of expansions. Race 07 is slightly newer with a bit of...

Yes, they work with a 360 controller, but ffb doesn't work out of the box. I think some people might have gotten ffb to work with third-party apps like Xpadder.

Yeah, the SimBin bundle is 50% off and all the single titles and expansions are each 70% off. http://store.steampowered.com/sub/18370/ Also try the free Power & Glory mod for GTR2 if you like GTL. http://www.gtlw.co.uk/

gone, thx

Yeah, this is near Amazon's lowest ($85), unless you count refurbs. This model seems to have solid reviews for the price. The next step up is the G27 or others (Fanatec, Thrustmaster) at $200-300+ on sale.

Sonic codes were all gone when I tried them.

Certain games will not use flash drives regardless of their capacity (for features like replays and rewinds). I put in a used first-gen 60GB hdd in my 4GB slim and it works fine.

Depends on the game and whether or not it supports certain features saving to flash or USB drives. I picked up a 4GB a while back and one of my games didn't support replays without a hard drive. So, I put in a second hand drive. I expected the replay files to be huge, but they were tiny and...

I know I just missed the BF/CM deals. I just picked up some new games and was planning on upgrading my Silver account with one of the free or $1 a month offers, but none of them seem to be coming up anymore. So, are there any deals still going today for 1-3 months of Live Gold cheaper than MSRP?
