If they follow the same pattern as the last two years, it'll start Wednesday and go for 5 days.

Heroes VI any good?

 

[Schfifty Five]

Anyone know if Skyrim going to be on sale during BF deals (on PC hopefully, but don't mind a console version)

 

[WhoBeDaPlaya]

Was rather hoping for boxed versions of the games.

Doubt it...

So if you buy a game from Amazon can you only download it once? I bought some music from them and they only give you one copy, you can't redownload it if you lose it or something.

Also, I saw that ME2 is 75% but I didn't see it listed as part of the BF sale, I might just have to pick up that and the Witcher 2...

No.. you have unlimited installs. You can also install it in all the systems you own.

Just got:
Mount and Blade

I hope you bought Mount and Blade: Warband. It's stand alone and has everything the original has + more.

Not sure what you mean, because I've ordered albums from them and have been able to redownload on multiple machines. Maybe you just weren't looking in the right place.

Actually I seem to recall around last Thanksgiving New Vegas was on sale at 40% off cuz thats when I got it. Was still very new at the time.
Only Steam version though, not disc. (Of course the disc version requires Steam too but thats a separate issue.)

They used to have one download only, now it's unlimited if you download to cloud.

Yeah I guess not, I logged into my account today and found it right away...the last time I tried was like 2 years ago and I'm pretty sure there wasn't a digital content section then but oh well. That's pretty sweet then I'm definitely gonna pick up Witcher 2 tonight.

EDIT: Actually I take that back, if I try to download it again it just says "Already Downloaded" next to every song and it doesn't let me download my music again, and one of the albums has "buy" next to all of the songs. Where are you going that it lets you actually download it again?

I also just noticed... nearly ALL of these games also have the following special promotion attached:

[Craig234]

There's a second sale right under this one for $1.99 'casual games'. I didn't look much yet, but they have a version of Ricochet which is a great later version of 'Breakout'.

My post is right above yours. For later sales they added unlimited.

Ah ok thanks I didn't see that, yeah I downloaded all of these before the cloud storage was introduced.

 

[JujuFish]

Very possible, as that would cause the last day of new deals (if it's 5 days again) to be on Cyber Monday. Either way, I'm looking forward to it.

Yup. I just discoved that too. I was thinking about "gambling" and seeing if Steam put Assassin's Creed on sale for $3.99 (currently $4.99 at Amazon - yes I'm that cheap). But this bonus basically makes this deal a no-brainer.

I picked it up on greenmangaming for $53.79, which is 10% off.

Between Battlefield 3 (PC) and MW3 (Xbox 360) I've spent way more time playing Skyrim, so it's money well spent IMO.

Yes. Not sure why I didn't finish typing it.
And its a mighty fine game. Best I've played in a while.

 

[Craig234]

I looked through 36 pages (!) of the casual games to pick out good ones.

Here are what I'd suggest if you like the type of game:


Puzzle Quest
- No brainer a great game for far more money

The rest I'd say are 'nice casual games' of various types

For example, Luxor has a nice set of 5 games, all about shooting marbles as the roll by on maps, the one below is an 'HD' version

4 Elements
Ricochet Lost Worlds, Ricochet Infinite
Wik
Luxor HD
Chains

They got a crapload of stuff on sale right now. Their daily deals have gone from 10 items to a hundred.
