Weekend PC download deals: Farewell, GDC!

This year's Game Developers Conference is now behind us and there's no better way to celebrate than by playing through some of our favorite PC games. And it isn't just hungover game developers that are looking to unwind after a long week. There are also a greater number of people starting to trickle out for spring break, so there are a greater number of PCs are calling out for their attention. Because playing PC games is the only way to spend a week off.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

      I tried to pick up Stick of Truth from Get Games and was told "We are unable to provide the following item(s) to the delivery address you have selected. Please remove them to continue with the checkout. ". Do they not sell to people in the US?

        Well, Get Games won't sell it to me, but the Green Man Gaming voucher code works on Stick of Truth for anyone interested.

          Get Games tends to be picky with US. Seems random what will/wont work.
