These sales I hardly got any games on steam because I was abroad and buying them abroad proved to be a royal pain in the ass. I can understand the security reasoning, but if I already made the authentication then surely I should be allowed to buy games and not have to wait 5 days before I can do anything. Needless to say these sales nearly all my money when to Gog and Amazon, who weren't being frustrating. Helps that you can actually return games with both webshops.

I know it's HS (not a sale) but there's no thread to talk about that I think, yesterday I played Metal Gear Revengeance the PC port, and the port is amazing, the game is fluid, you can play windowed, the loading times are near instant, it detected my PS3 pad and the configured the buttons perfectly without having to do anything....they did a really great job on this port :o

It's stupid how fun and addicting Runner2 is... I haven't tried the other games yet, but I think this bundle is definitely worth picking up for that alone.

I thought I had posted here, but guess I forgot.

The current IndieGala bundle is a very good deal, especially with the centerpiece of Deadly Premonition at the $5.20 price point.

Bought Valdis Story: Abyssal City from the Steam Christmas sale, just got around to playing it.

Highly recommend the game. Graphics are beautiful, music is good, combat system is amazing. Basically a mix of 2D Metroidvania exploration with Devil May Cry combat (complete with extremely punishing boss ranking). There's a lot that will infuriate you on your first play through, especially some platforming and boss fights, but once you get some practice in everything becomes smooth and enjoyable.

Skill tree system is very well-done, currently with 2 characters (with 2 more on the way) that have 3 or more viable play-styles even in the hardest mode.

Only standing criticisms are that the writing is kind of lackluster, there's a lot of annoyances with enemies hitting you and knocking you down platforms (or worse, multiple screens), a lot of game mechanics and side quests are completely unexplained in-game, and the game feels a tad short (but it has good replay value).

Wargame AirLand battle is currently at 70% discount on steam. At 12 euros its probably the best true strategy game you can buy.

Sid Meier Humble Bundle is up for the week.

Protip: Don't buy the $15 tier; BNW has been in the $6 range a la carte from various places, versus the ~$9 that you're paying to go from BTA to $15 right now.

GOG has a nice sale going on for Valentine's.

http://www.gog.com/promo/valentines_day_promo_140214

Dungeon Keeper 1 is free. I believe this is the lowest price to date for Rise of the Triad 2013 and System Shock 2, and some other older games (Nox, Alpha Centauri, UT2004) are recommended at their current prices.
