Minimal damage (3 games) thus far: Grimrock, Worms reloaded, and Toy Soldiers

Toy Soldiers is pretty cool from what I've tried so far :)

Resisting Alan Wake and Space Marine, but its been tough. Really want New Vegas Ultimate.

Darn, I really wanted Metro. Based on the voting results you guys talked about (I wasn't awake to see it) I feel screwed!

Same. I kinda want Bioshock 2 on steam, but I already have it on a faulty Windows live version from a cheap package via Amazon (only game not to activate on steam).

Well that answers the question of whether a game can be up for both a community choice and a daily deal.

I was hoping for QUBE too. PvZ has been on sale or in various indie bundle that everybody and their grandmother should already own. I just don't get it.

If anyone is interested in Ys: Origin, skip it and buy Ys: The Oath in Felghana. It's cheaper and supposedly quite a bit better. A little older, but it runs on the exact same engine.

There's no explanation for why they said Bioshock 2 won, when it lost 34 to 35, that I've seen.

It's possible that Metro was 34,60% and bioshock was 34,70%. In displaying the percentage they rounded up metro first, but then they had to round bioshock down because otherwise it would exceed 100%

Bought Alan Wake & Syberia Bundle so far.

50% off for Skyrim? You disappoint me, Steam. It was that price at GMG way back in January.

This is a reason I don't like their encouraging everyone to vote - people who already own PvZ might vote for it just because 'oh that's a good game', instead of not voting.
