Just seems they are going really hard on the whole 'WOW LOOK WE ARE SELLING THIS 1 year OLD GAME FOR 25% OFF HOW AMAZINGLY GREAT ARE WE FOR GIVING YOU SUCH A BARGAIN!' (by the way I realise it's almost certainly not Steam's fault...probably the game publishers/studios). Don't get me started on Activision Blizzard for refusing to drop the price of CoD games despite the fact that they offer such boring and small campaigns, and their multiplayer is still worse than counter strike. I was enjoying how Steam made downloading games legally worth it, but they seem to be taking a step back at least compared to the Christmas sales last year. The big deals are mostly flogging us massive mega packs. Who seriously is going to buy all the total war games for 50 quid? Surely if you were willing to spend that much on that series you would already own a good deal of the games in the series, thereby making buying the whole pack pointless. I really wish that they had a 'collector friendly' system, whereby they add up the games you already have of any one pack and take their value OFF the price of the collection pack. Allowing you to buy all the games made by the publisher/studio but not having to waste money buying things you already have. EDIT: I guess they do have a few games with quite a lot off but not much of a selection...freaking train simulator | ||

Reddit even has a subreddit for it. | ||

http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-AWAN/alan-wakes-american-nightmare If you like survival horror get it since it is one of the finest released for the genre in the last few years, that said it is not as good as Alan wake but a nice introductory point if you want in on the cheap. And it's gone GG messed up pricing again it seems | ||

I found the game for 23$ but it has some to be activated by a russian VPN. It has instructions on how to get a russian VPN and says I can DL it with my regular IP once I've activated my cdkey but has anyone ever done this before ?? https://store-zme0e7.mybigcommerce.com/pages/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-pc-game-steam-digital-download-russian.html | ||

Ive seen it. After all, tax evasion and other stuff are real crimes, so they HAVE to care about this. But you can use it to decrypt preloads, i have done it lots of times. | ||
