Seriously tempted at $8 (that's an 84% discount) but I know MSRP will drop sooner or later and the sale prices with it.
I just finished Tomb Raider on the (shhhhh, don't tell anyone) 360, I think I paid $14 (with MS Points crazy deal, which probably brought the cost down to $10 or under). Definitely worth it. Sometimes I love it when I'm wrong. I initially thought the reboot was kinda lame, but after playing the game it really worked for me. Great looking/sounding game, good action. Cons: Some reliance on QTEs, which I think are becoming overused/annoying. Plot was fairly predictable, in an enjoyable kinda way. Not super long (but that's more of a pro for me). Looking forward to Tomb Raider: Part Deux.Seriously tempted at $8 (that's an 84% discount) but I know MSRP will drop sooner or later and the sale prices with it.
Wait till winter sale. The entire collection could be had for $9 from one of the euro sellers here on cag during the fall sale, and my understanding is that we will see plenty of repeat prices during the winter steam sale.Seriously tempted at $8 (that's an 84% discount) but I know MSRP will drop sooner or later and the sale prices with it.
Was just going to mention that. I had been waiting for it to drop under $10 but when I saw that JakeNome could get it for me for $9 for all of the Tomb Raider games including the new one I was sold.Wait till winter sale.

I have all the others, and my husband has 2013 on his Steam so I can always play it there.Wait till winter sale.

Getting closer to $5 *waits patiently*
Screw that, I'm waiting for the inevitable Squeenix bundle. Although I honestly don't know what else they have that I'd still be interested in at this point.Getting closer to $5 *waits patiently*
Actually, you know I just looked at my time played in Raptr, and I am at 23 hours. So, yeah, that is pretty long (as she said). I think because the game was "always moving", it felt "short" (that's what sh....nevermind).it felt super long to me, I'm used to this genre of game lasting 9-12 hrs, I think tomb raider was around 20. On Hard and with exploring. I was impressed by the length. That's what she said.
Completely awesome. I've been jonesing for Skyrim: Legendary Edition in a serious way, missed the last Steam sale, then got hit with this ridiculous ice storm in Dallas and can't get to a store. Was having a seriously crappy day, and you just saved it. Thank you!New GMG email deals:

watch when squeenix does a bundle they have that 6 dollar limit thing, tomb raider is in the upper tier, and lower tier is all games you already haveScrew that, I'm waiting for the inevitable Squeenix bundle.

Linked for you.Total War Rome 2 is currently 29.97. With 20% code it comes to 23.98. Cheapest by far at this point as far as I know. No links, on mobile and rushing. Sorry.
Finally!66% off Typing of the Dead: Overkill (Steam) - $6.79 ($5.43)
20% off voucher (good till 1500 UTC 12/9/13) - GMG20-CV2W4-DSYBT
I had a copy of Ninja Blade for some reason, so that shaved 50 cents off my price. $4.94, this game will not be this cheap anytime soon.Finally!
I missed the 50% discount at launch, and it never dropped below 25% discount for the Autumn Sale. This is an insta buy for me. Thanks!
It's Sega.. they're almost as bad (or good?) as Square Enix when it comes to competitive pricing. Probably won't take more than 1-2 months for it to be 75% off. Might even get a good price during the Amazon sale this month, or EC promo in January.I had a copy of Ninja Blade for some reason, so that shaved 50 cents off my price. $4.94, this game will not be this cheap anytime soon.
No, it was only on sale on Friday.Is Company Of Heroes 2 still available at the $10 price? Can't find the applicable coupon and not sure it was on sale otherwise.
Might grab Typing of the Dead with the 20% off coupon...

Amazon has had the best deals on Genesis games over the last few years. Tony's done bundles of all five collections for cheap . The Sonic games are not in the Steam version pack, however, and Toe Jam & Earl almost never go lower than 50% off (those two had to go through some legal hoops before they could be sold).Except when it comes to their Genesis games. NOT BITTER REALLY.
The Steam versions of those Genesis packs have not been bundled together at Amazon during these past few sales. They sell the packs for $3.50 each, which is the same price as Steam.Amazon has had the best deals on Genesis games over the last few years. Tony's done bundles of all five collections for cheap .

In a typing game....?... it HAS controller support in House of the Dead mode.
It has a normal shooty shooty pew pew mode, in case you actually didn't know.In a typing game....?
Forget it, I give up on this joke...

Mmhm, I bought it then. Note that in addition to the Sonic games, these bundles are also lacking Toe Jam and Earl 1 & 2. They seem to only be available individually, and only on Steam. Too bad about that - both games are classics, especially the first one, which predated the current "quirky roguelike" fad by about 20 years.Yeah, they had the pack of 50 Genesis games on sale for 5 bucks last year:

You think that's bad, try playing it with a mouse. You'll right click more than a marathon Diablo session.Playing lightgun games with a controller is one of the most unenjoyable gaming experiences I can imagine.
Okay with a mouse, but just not quite the same.Playing lightgun games with a controller is one of the most unenjoyable gaming experiences I can imagine.
Well, I did play the PC port of Virtua Cop on PC with a mouse... it worked out rather fine... (for whatever reason that's triggering a strong memory of the mousepad I used to play it back in '97).You think that's bad, try playing it with a mouse.

Ah, sorry sun, but I'm passing this time round. I don't know if this'll show up on the EC list, but I imagine 75% off at Steam or a DLC bundle at Amazon are likely possibilities. I can already feel the potential regret from an impulse purchase now, so that makes it easy to hold out. We'll have to find another sucker to appease the CAG gods.Thank you for buying this now so I can get it free in January
