yes! it's $3.70 AUD!
i bought it in the previous sale without knowing anything about it really and i like it. it's a pretty good port. the controls are fine (you can actually drive without crashing, thank god, unlike saints row 2). everything about it is pretty good, really. you need a little bit of patience in finding clues and have to accept that you can't blast *everybody's* brains out but it's cool, a bit different, very good value for that price.
on shogun total war, will that go 75% off? i got the complete pack last sale at 75% off and my mate wants to get it now.
$20 for all civ 5 + civ 4 + stronghold. like what the hell.
edit: btw, i noticed lord of the rings lego is 'on sale' on steam for $33.50.. you can get it on amazon for $7.50. which i'm idly interested in, though ports make me nervous. any feedback on lotr lego for PC?
Just a question. Are all the games from the Strategy pack steam codes?

it was 7.50 in amazon 4 days ago, probably it won't go as low again this sale but you certainly can get a better price.
It's also been 50% offf at gmg earlier, so if you can hold out you will find better deals than 33% off on it, just not on steam. I've been buying a lot of cheap games off gmg lately because not only do they do 50-75% off stuff, but they always have 25-30% discount codes you can stack on top of that.
Didn't want to create a thread for this -- but if some of you haven't heard or picked up XCOM and want it -- 50% off on Green Man Gaming, and you can use their 30% off coupon on that to make it 17.50.

Everyone who hasn't already done so needs to pick up YS Origin immediately. As far as platformers go it's the most fun I've had. It's also a game which is legitimately hard. Actually the discrepancy between mobs and bosses is probably the only thing about it that can grind you, but otherwise it should be the game from the indie bundle that deserves more attention.

Is it on sale?
EDIT: Im gonna answer my own post with YES, yes it is on 50% sale on Steam, downloading as we speak(type).
EDIT2: Did Ys Origin or Ys Oath in Felgahana come first? Like should i play Origins first? Or Felgahana?

Both Origin and Oath were on 75% flash sales/daily deals before (even during the sale), so there was a good chance that it would have popped up again at the price towards the end of the sale :/
It shouldn't matter in what order you play them. I believe Origin is a prequel to the series, while Oath is a remake of one of the original games.
I was really tempted to buy both of them, but I ended up getting FFVII instead. It's the one game I really want from the Mega Bundle (other than Bastion). Of course, it wasn't worth so much just for the two for me

FF7 where ?!?!
And I rather like Ys as well. If they're cheap, go for it. They're nice little platformers.
Mind you, it does have some DRM (SecuROM - limited to 3 installations) and you're forced to use cloud saving unless you disconnect from the internet (or if you wait for the server to time out after 10 minutes or so), and it has the old 1997 PC release audio instead of the PSX orchestrated audio. I haven't had any problems so far (saving is instant for me and I've already replaced the audio with the original PSX soundtrack, hehe), but there's some stuff to be aware of. It's non-Steam.
