Dwarfs!? is fun. I assume you already own HalfLife2 and EUIII...
Terraria is fun as SP for a while and will probably get more expansive soon anyway.
Evil Genius is pure awesomesauce so definitely buy it!

Europa Universales is the Dwarf Fortress of the world conquering game. Or whatever... I cannot explain stuff of this magnitude ^^

There also is a demo that has 2 of the 4 expansions so you can try it first

Dino D-day is 50% off($9.99). Not going to buy it myself, but if someone gets it I'd be interested in hearing how it plays. Cities XL 2011 is 75% off ($10.00) Not my bag of chips.

Portal 2 is now being sold as a two-pack online for 89.98, though you may not want to pick it up on there just yet, because Amazon is offering it for 10 dollars less per copy.

So, for the same price you could pre-order the two pack for?  Hold out for a better sale, folks.

Just like to say VVVVVV is up for sale for $2.49. Great game to buy if you haven't got it.

Thief: Deadly Shadows is also going fairly cheap. I haven't played it since the first two apparently kick it's arse out of the water. Though it might be alright if you can't stand the dated graphics of the originals.

Cities: XL still seem to be on special as well. It too has seemed to have gotten pretty crappy reviews when compared to older games in the genre (this case SimCity 4). Still $10 isn't that bad.

Avoid Thief: Deadly Shadows if you have an operating system older than Windows XP.
How WHY do you have an operating system older than Windows XP?

Thief: Deadly Shadows is excellent, it just suffered from slight X-Box-itis and the misfortune of being the sequel to the sheer pinnacles of stealth gaming (two of the very few games that have received favorable reviews from Yahtzee Croshaw of Zero Punctuation).  I'd highly recommend it.

Avoid Thief: Deadly Shadows if you have an operating system older than Windows XP. No matter what I do, it flat-out REFUSES to even launch. I only bought it for 2.50 or whatever it was when it was on sale before, but do NOT pay the money for broken software.

Odd, I've gotten it running on both Vista and 7, although it didn't like my laptop's Intel 945GM chipset much.  Haven't tried the Steam version, though.
