For you, dear reader, I have missed cheap door entry at dancing so I might properly scrutinise this weekend's sales at digital distributors. Because I care. Offers include Hotline Miami for $3.33, FTL for $2.49, The Witcher 2 for $7, XCOM: Enemy Unknown for $11, Dishonored for $16, and Dead Island Riptide for $20. There's oh so much more, of course.

For you, dear reader, I have missed cheap door entry at dancing so I might properly scrutinise this weekend's sales at digital distributors. Because I care. Offers include Hotline Miami for $2.71, FTL for $2.49, The Witcher 2 for $7, XCOM: Enemy Unknown for $11, Dishonored for $16, and Dead Island Riptide for $20. There's oh so much more, of course. Here's our selection of this weekend's PC deals:

GameFly

You'll need to use the code GFDJUN20 to get these prices. They're not quite exact because accessing the US site is a pain for me here in England but hey, close enough.

Dishonored's Knife of Dunwall DLC

Amazon

Amazon has loads of sales to celebrate the formalising of its indie games section, where you'll far more than I list in this general-purpose deal-o-rama:

Mirror's Edge

Blizzard

Mirror's Edge

GamersGate

King's Bounty: Armored Princess

Get Games

Scribblenauts Unlimited

GOG

GOG has a huge huge summer sale with 50% off a bajillion games and daily deals with mega-discounts. You'll find cracking bargains like System Shock 2 for $4.99 in the main sale, but the way to handle any sale with daily deals is to wait and see if games you want come up in dailies first. So I won't list regular sale stuff. These and more are at these prices until 6am Pacific on Saturday morning:

The Witcher 2

Green Man Gaming

GMG offers 20% off most games with the code GMG20-6WUSQ-LBC4U. I'd include this with the prices listed below, but GMG has messed with its website so there's no easy way to remove items from the basket (which I need to check the voucher's valid on each game) and I have neither time nor patience to deal with this rubbish. So you can probably knock another 20% off these: It also has daily deals on Square Enix games. Again, voucher etc, but these are until about 7am Pacific on Sunday:

Guild Wars 2

Humble Bundle

Pay what you want for Aquaria, Fractal, Organ Trail, Pulse, and Stealth Bastard Deluxe. Beat the average price to get Broken Sword: Director's Cut and Frozen Synapse too. Steam keys if you pay at least a dollar. All are for Android, PC, Mac, and Linux, except for Pulse, which is Android-only. Or, pay what you want for Rochard plus its Hard Times DLC. Pay at least a dollar for Steam keys.

Stealth Bastard Deluxe

Impulse

Rage's Scorchers DLC

Indie Game Stand

Pay what you want for 8-Bit Commando.

8-Bit Commando

Indie Royale

Pay what you want, above a minimum, for Breath of Death VII, Cthulhu Saves the World, Eufloria, Really Big Sky, and Runespell: Overture. All come DRM-free or with Steam keys.

Eufloria

Steam

Steam also has a big Paradox Interactive weekend sale, with 50% off most games this weekend plus bigger daily deals. These are until 10am Pacific on Saturday morning:

Dead Island Riptide

Subset Games

Friday:

FTL

          Normally?
          So you're saying that there's a chance that items that say [Steam] may not work with Steam, in which case eeeealmo is right to question whether or not it can be used on the steam

            There was one time when this feature listed F.E.A.R. 2 as [Steam], which was a good assumption since F.E.A.R. 2 is a Steamworks game. But whatever service it was going through (GamersGate?) somehow had the one version of the game for sale that didn't use Steam.

            Not that this is a frequent enough occurrence to be a problem, but it's not 100% unnecessary to check the fine print on the site.

              F.E.A.R. 3 is Steamworks, F.E.A.R. 2 is not, that likely was the source of confusion.

          The only way I see it going under $20 is if they announce the next expansion.

        It seems like they're doing the same thing as past sales. That was the day that has all of the sales and they'll recycle those until July 5th.

      I couldn't resist adding the Thief games to my GOG library for $15 along with the first Deus Ex. I've played all of those games, but never finished any of them -- I *really* want to.
