No chance. If I recall correctly, any game launched within 3 months of a Steam Sale never goes for more than 50% off. So that means Borderlands 2, Dishonored, X-COM, Hitman Absolution, etc, etc. Even Black Ops 2 will probably never go lower than 33% off (Thank you Bobby Kotick).

Borderlands 2 was 50% off in the last sale. I'm expecting the same off X-COM given some of the cuts it's had on other sites.

And what I mean with the disk version is I put the disk in the PC, the popup to autorun the setup appears, I click it, and then absolutely nothing happens from there.

ignore the autorun and browse to the .exe file on the disk and try install it that way

Put the serial into steam and see if it activates.

If someone is new to pc gaming, that Bethesda package is absolutley savage for €90. There is a good 2 years gaming in there!

People already moaning on the Steam forums that the badge is not up to their expectations. :rolleyes:

I think the badge is racist, I can't get it because I can't complete the sign in on a mobile device as they don't support Windows Phone

My life shall remain incomplete forever.

On the plus side, no games for me today!

Boooo! No achievement meta-game this year. Loved the coal stuff.

If on Win 7, or I think Vista's the same, when you navigate to the exe, right click and run as administrator.

I'm only going for DLC for Xcom, Borderlands 2, Hitman and Dishonred and Worms Revolution this sale. One or two others I'll get if they are massively reduced. I'll be looking out for a few great deals to give out to my channel subscribers too. Picked up Arkham City GOTY there.

johnny_ultimate

I've been meaning to get Thomas Was Alone, and it's down to 3.99. And yet, the dastardly logic of the Steam sale dictates that, even at such a nice price for an indie game that deserves the money, it may yet go down in price. If ever there was a first world problem...

is Blood Money the "good" hitman?
or is that Contracts?

Bloodwing

Natural Selection and Wargame for me. Only went with Wargame because it got a few votes over in the game awards forum.

TheSunderz

jayteecork

Roller Coaster Rampage €2.49.

Might break my trading embargo and buy it.

steve_r

Just picked up San Andreas for a fiver. It asked me my date of birth, wasn't paying attention and put in September 2012.

Had to re-login to fix that - though surely any three month old that got that far would have fixed it quicker than I did.......

ionapaul

What's the 2008 version of Prince of Persia like? Only €2.50 but don't want to bother if it's complete rubbish!
