Urgh, L.A. Noire at -50% already, I bought it at release at full price not so long ago >.<.

Fallout New Vegas for 5 euros? A must buy if you don't have it already.

Nothing(that I don't already own that is) interesting for me today though :(.

I was a bit disappointed to learn that they didn't have a FNV+ dlc pack.
5 dollars for the base game is tempting, but an additional 12 for the dlc?
I think I'll wait.

I was tempted by NV as well untill I remember Bethesda does that price region bullshit.
Yesterday I picked up the Orcs Must Die! DLC, Eversion, Oddbox and Cryostatis. Good thing there was no sales, I have such a massive backlog as it is.  :)

Hmm, nothing that really calls out to me either.  Hopefully more interesting stuff tomorrow.  :)

I managed to grab Orcs Must Die this morning before the sale ended (I live on the west coast so it doesn't recycle until 10am).  I remember thinking the demo was kind of fun but not really 15$ fun (plus given how steam operates and how close we were to both black friday and christmas I knew it'd be on sale soon enough).  I guess I could have waited until christmas but I think that for less than five bucks it was a good deal.  Not anyting that jumps out at me today.

Rift is pretty tempting at this price but I'm still not sure if I want to make the commitment considering I don't know anyone else playing. I'll have to think about this over some delicious turkey.

Just as I thought, games that were yesterday at 50% are today at 75%.

I wouldn't recommend buying anything at 50% off or less. 50% off specials are a dime a dozen. In fact if it's 50% off now, it will probably be 50% again next month, and the next one, and the one after that, and once each month, forever and ever. So don't rush because they're trying to awe you with terminology like "super duper special autumn sale. buy one get two pay three!" or whatever :D

EDIT: Allright so I can either:
-Buy Fallout: New Vegas + Prima Official Strategy Guide $6.87
-Buy Fallout: New Vegas - Prima Official Strategy Guide $2.49

What does that even mean? If I only pay $2.49 do they search my house and try to find a random Prima guide and take it away?

Its subscription based... so... yea.  Depends on how long you want to stick with.  I'm still playing on Harrow(American RP-PvP Server).  Its very very very low population though.  Barely any Guardians... and a small amount of Defiants.  I'm on the Defiant side.

That's for the guide only. It would be better read:
-Buy Fallout: New Vegas Prima Official Strategy Guide $2.49
or
-Buy Fallout: New Vegas: Prima Official Strategy Guide $2.49

I've bought most everything I want from Steam in recent sales, and the current one isn't very exciting. New Vegas was tempting, but I don't like the game that much, and I have yet to see any great mods for it. It's also at 75% off multiple times per year, so this isn't a very rare opportunity, especially with the holidays coming up.
Tomorrow's sales should prove interesting, though. Assuming the Steam servers don't get too severely crippled. (Last night was terrible. I had to go offline just to play Skyrim.)
