Nice!

Also worth picking up:

Mark of the Ninja - $3.74
Mass Effect 3 - $5.99
The Walking Dead - $6.24
Hitman: Absolution - $9.99
Amnesia: The Dark Descent - $2.99

The Civ 5 expansion Brave New World is the lowest it has ever been at $14.99.

Found the Mass Effect 3 DLX for $7.49 and the ME Trilogy for $14.99. Both are cheaper than the prices from the recent Origin deal.

ME3 has went back up in price.

There seems to be some $5 off promo on top of this.

That means that Civ V Brave new World is $10 bucks.

How'd you manage the $5 off promo?

Mass effect 3 is definitely worth buying at any price range. I've played it 3 times with 3 different characters and everytime i had a blast. The story, videos, fights etc. are all incredible and interesting.

I'll probably go thru it for a fourth time in a near future.

Mass effect 3 is fun; but the ending kind of sucks. Also i found it disgusting that co-op is required for the 'good' ending; as a single player why the freak do i have to play co-op for the ending that matched my play style. Bleh.

it just magically appeared. I didn't do anything.

Probably in response to Newegg selling it for $11.99

i didn't dislike the ending at all. Why people complain about it? the story teller has the right to finish his book the way it wants, no?

furthermore, i found it quite interesting, a genuine idea. The guy who thought about that, kudos!

i don't know about the co-op part, never tried it. But like i just explained, the ending was fine with me, stories do not have to go the way *we* want.

What?? crap i just bought the amazon one. Will Amazon price match if I've already bought it? I swear I heard people emailing them and they give them the difference back. I just emailed them and they replied "tough luck".

Yes but the choices you make in the game have almost no influence on the ending; that was the big issue. You could skip most of the game - be good or evil - kind or rigid - it matters not in the end it is all the same.

A bit like real life isn't it? be good or evil, you'll end up in a casket !!(now for the spiritual part of the afterlife, i won't write anything, because beliefs are too different)

That co-op requirement sounds like a very valid complaint.

I think it depends on the item. They did that for me when I bought a projector, but since most software sales are final, it's probably a different story

Also, there are a lot of Nancy Drew games. Who even plays those?

I thought the same thing.. till a reviewer i respect reviewed a few (specific ones) and said they where quite intelligent puzzle games. I played a few of the recommended and they where not bad. I must admit that game type was never my idea of GREAT, but they are better games then one might think.

but..I do understand the thought.

Hey guys, I see that Sonic Generations is only $6.49. Just wondering how the game is since I don't have a controller for the PC. The last time I played Sonic was back in the Sega Genesis days and I really liked playing it with friends. Playing it on the PC without a controller sounds interesting though I'm hesitant about it. Also, Borderlands 2 is $14.99 - thoughts?

Appreciate any comments.

Borderlands 2 is a blast.....

All I can say is that both games get very good comments from PC gamers, and seem like a very good deal at these prices. I'm not sure about a controller with Sonic.

I'm actually tempted to grab a couple to try them, but wading through finding the best...
