Not sure if R.U.S.E. was any use...? Although it's not discounted at the moment.

My tally this time around:

Steam

Serious Sam 3 -€5.99
Alan Wake Bundle - €8.99

Amazon

Tantalizing THQ Medley - $4.99 (only got this for Red Faction: Armageddon and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine, have all the rest and will just give away the codes)
Dark Souls - $14.99
The Walking Dead - $7.49 (incl. $5 coupon)

GMG

Civ V: Gods & Kings - €4.49
Crusader Kings II - €7 (incl. 30% code)

I spent more than I thought I would but was still somewhat restrained, there were some good deals for items on my wishlist but I know I'll get them again in future sales. As mentioned earlier in the thread, I have unplayed games from each and every Steam sale for the past few years, so really shouldn't be buying anything anymore - just can't help myself though!

Just FTL at a fiver for me. Previous sales and assorted Indie bundles really cut down what I wanted.

Downlinz

Got:

Football Manager 2013
Alice: Madness Returns
Alan Wake Bundle
Recettear
Plants Vs Zombies
Civ IV collection
Sim City 4 Deluxe
Sleeping Dogs (91% off edition)

for 60 euro, pretty happy. Got what I wanted out of it.

I'd have liked a good deal (75%) on Bully:Scolarship Edition but not to be, or if it did turn up I missed it.

Surprised myself, all I've bought is the Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition Bundle, two copies...

Famous last words, I've added Arkham City GOTY and Saint's Row: The Third The Full Package to this...

I've actually stopped thinking of these sales as sales and more of a tax for gamers. I don't know whether it's my willpower or lack thereof but I just can't stop myself.

If i were to guess id say £100-150 in sterling. Doesnt help that i have a visa debit card that makes it way too easy. I had managed to save a good bit of money for the sale so im not in the poorhouse yet.

I did try and avoid paying for any games that were over a tenner unless it was something i really wanted.

Kiith

Final tally for me is...far more then i should have spent

Civilization V / Gods & Kings
Sleeping Dogs
Darksiders 2
Devil May Cry 4
Dead Island
Hotline Miami
Torchlight 2
Dreamfall
The Longest Journey
Dawn of War collection
Uplink

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

ruse 2.49

i would have bought dark souls but it was never on sale when I had money in the bank. I'll pick it up full price in a couple of months

Is dead island worth getting lads?

Angron

It's all right I've found. Not the best zombie game around, but I've played about 12 hours so far, and it's kept my attention pretty well.

Not The Real Scarecrow

Played it when it first came out and wasn't blown away by it. Its ok ,just noting you'll be talking about in years to come.

dreamers75

Coop is good fun, played a fair bit off it since i got it 2 weeks ago.
