So. Video games are on sale this weekend. Quite a few of them. It's hard to pick just to highlight but, ah, let's say Just Cause 2 for $3. Other bargains include FTL for $3; Hotline Miami for $3; The Walking Dead for $6; a bundle of Dead Island GotY, Metro 2033, Saints Row 2, and Saints Row: The Third - the Full Package for $10; and everything Anno 2070 for $25.
Come, come in, settle down, rest your feet, and I shall bring you all the games you could want to play this long weekend. $20 will get you a bundle of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Civilization IV Complete, and Civ V Gold, which is certainly a bargain and a half, yes?
If you've missed any of the daily deals in GOG's big summer sale, good news! As the sale enters its final day, all of those fine bargains have returned, with up to 85% off big bouncing bundles as well as single games. Plus, you know, if you've been waiting to see if a particular game that was only 50% off came up in a daily, snap it up now.
Now's as good a time as any to give Borderlands a bash if you haven't already, as the FPS-RPG is the jewel in the crown of this week's downloadable deals. $22 will get you the GotY edition of the original game, plus Borderlands 2 and its DLC season pass. Other bargains include Space Pirates and Zombies for $2, Natural Selection 2 for $9, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare for $9, and everything Anno 2070 for $25.
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.
An pleasing pay-what-you-want Humble Bundle launched yesterday, this time of the variety which includes versions for your Android doodad as well as the usual PC, Mac, and Linux. Games up for grab include Aquaria, Frozen Synapse, and Stealth Bastard Deluxe.
DRM-deficient digital distributor GOG has launched a mighty summer sale, cutting 50% off the ticket price of most its games, both new and old. This means you can snap up a ludicrous number of bargains. On top of that, GOG's running even bigger one-day sales and, oh my, is offering Runic's fine action-RPG Torchlight for free to get things rolling.
As this is the end of E3 week for me and I want nothing more than to run outside and yell at the sky, this weekend's roundup of PC download deals is less tediously comprehensive than usual. It's still full of lovely games, mind! Offers include Battlefield 3 for $5, The Witcher 2 for $7, every Double Fine game for $10, Saints Row: The Third - The Full Package, Kerbal Space Program for $15, Dead Space 3 for $20, and Far Cry 3 for $25.
This weekend is an absolute cracker for PC download sales, with deals including BioShock Infinite for $28, Hitman: Absolution for $5, Sleeping Dogs for $6, every Double Fine game for $10, Civilization V Gold for $10, Borderlands 2 for $11, XCOM: Enemy Unknown for $16, an absurd Total War bundle for $18, Tomb Raider for $20, Remember Me for $38, and Guild Wars 2 for $38. And then there are the pay-what-you-want deals!
