It's a fun but difficult game. Probably one of the better simulator games I've played.

Thanks for the heads up about Blood Dragon. I would have missed it otherwise. Played Far Cry 3 on the consoles so it's nice that you can play the Blood Dragon DLC without the main game.

Civ 5 Complete Edition on for 50% @ $24.99 right now. Do you remember what it cost during the last sale?

Last year was $12.50 without Brave New World. Most recent was $15 with Brave New World.

Valve complete pack is 75% off... Wait? I only have 2 of the games in it.

Blood Dragon was so fun and amusing.

South Park: The Stick of Truth is on sale for $40.19.

Is the game worth it?

If you watched the entire series, plenty of meta stuff. I'm not a big fan of RPG, but it held my interest.

Someone talked me into getting X-Com last Summer Sale..

Now im here to tell you to buy X-Com because its one of the best turn-based strategies in modern gaming.

Stay clear of Sins of a Solar Empire, I suggest getting something like SE4 instead.

Not sure if I should pickup Torchlight 2 for cheap, it looks dated in the video for a grindy slasher.

The game I really want on sale this sale is The Wolf Among Us

Huge fan of the show. I just wonder should I wait near the end to see if it's cheaper.

It wont get cheaper than a flash/community choice. I really enjoyed TSOT, its funny and feels like watching the show. My only complaint is that its only 6-7 hours long and lacks any replayability. However it is like getting access to 4 more south park episodes.

It's got a small but dedicated modding community too when you get tired of the base game. The Long War mod in particular is an excellent ramp up in challenge and makes the game (in my opinion) much fairer.

I completely disagree. Sins is a fantastic space RTS.

I paid full price and it was worth every dollar. It's hilarious all the way through.

I'll also recommend Stick of Truth to anyone who's a fan of the show, one of my favorite games in a long time

Its the first game since Rayman Origins I've collected everything in and beat 100%. Had to play it twice though because there are some collectables you can miss along the way
