If Warband doesn't go on sale on Steam today, I might have to get it from Amazon. That's a pretty sweet deal.

I have been playing Warband (with Prophecy of Pendor mod) for the last week. That game is always worth going back to.

Civilization IV Complete Edition is sort of on sale...$20.15 on Amazon. I've really been wanting it...but it has been way cheaper. Cheapest was 7 dollars, and it once in awhile goes on sale for 10 or 11 on Amazon.

Sadly, I totally missed it when it was on sale last time...it supposedly went on sale in really early April (this month) and I was on vacation :(

Funny thing...I play Total War exactly like how one plays Civ IV :P In TW I skip/auto resolve battles and play it as a turn based strategy management game lol...

Anyway, I really want to get Civ IV mostly for the Fall From Heaven II overhaul mod...that looks epic.

As a fan of EU3, would Crusader Kings 2 be worth the buy at this price point? I imagine it'll go even further down at some point in the future. Thoughts appreciated.

I was wondering the same thing. I am very on the border on Crusader Kings 2. Well at least on the border until it hits under $10.

If you buy crusader kings 2 on amazon you can activate it on steam with the key that amazon gives you! I've been excited about this game!

Heres the official list of games you can add on steam.

US only, gah.

You can change your billing address to US and it works fine. I've been living at 1234 Fake Drive for quite some time.
Just regarding this; aren't checks made to match your credit card billing address and the one you supply, in which case a false address won't work?

Don't download it, and ask for a refund.

Maybe it's parasitic. It never loses its flavor because you eventually die from having your nutrients stolen by it.

Yeah I didn't think that far ahead.  I just said "meh I got it may as well play it" and got like 6% downloaded before I decided "this will take too long, so I'll do it while I'm asleep."  Don't see the option for a refund anywhere :s

I'm just derping all over this $10 aren't I?

$10 could get you a decent meal at an all you can eat buffet in many places. Would you rather have unlimited fried chicken, or 20 minutes of frustration for your $10?

Terrible chicken, maybe.  I've never met a buffet that I agree with.  Also vegetarian, which means buffets are rather pointless.  Literally, go into an all you can eat buffet and get stuck with dry mashed potatoes - no gravy - as the only thing edible.  Sometimes.  Mashed potatoes are often cooked with bits of ham.

I'm sorry. When I initially posted that, I didn't realize Stronghold 3 was such a stinker. It's on my list to buy. I guess I will definitely wait. I'm going to remove it from the post.

Yeah, people get so excited about Steam sales but fail to notice that Amazon pretty much gives away shit constantly. (Somebody at Amazon advertising/marketing seriously should figure out how to fix that.)

Anyhow, www.deals4downloads.com is one helluva site.  It even compares a given title across services.  (Again, Amazon pretty much always has the lowest price on non-GOG inventory, yet no one knows this for some reason.)

At a glance, Mount & Blade, Hearts of Iron III, Victoria, or Space Rangers 2 can be had for bus fare right now.

Ooh. Thanks for this one, showing me loads more things to sink money into. :P Larvely.

EDIT: Little heads up for anyone who has some sort of fascination with 1C, you can get the Complete Pack ('s got nearly 90 games in it) for $20.
