Can anyone do a favour for me???

I want Civ V Gods and Kings, it would cost me $37.99. Apparently it costs $25 for Americans...

Add me on Steam?  Same username, avatar is the character from Journey.

RE:BATMAN,
Taking a look at the deal you were talking about rutsber, you're probably better off just buying Arkham Asylum + City rather than the Franchise pack. The pack deal's "savings" are inflated by adding Batman Gotham City Imposters + loads of DLC, and that game is supposed to be pretty damn bad.

My purchase list so far:
Poker Night at the Inventory
Sega Genesis Classics V

I am being frugal.

So far I only bought the Saint's Row Franchise pack, but then I already have the other stuff they offered that I would have really wanted.

I was fairly tempted by the Saints Row package, but I've pretty much stopped playing first person shooters, so I decided to stop buying them.

Amnesia, Assassin's Creed, all three Battlefields, Bioshock 1&2, Bulletstorm, Call of Juarez 1, Company of Heroes+DLC, Crysis+DLC, Day of Defeat, Deus Ex 2, DOOM 3, Far Cry 1&2, FEAR EP & PM, FEAR 2, Frontlines, Full Spectrum Warrior+DLC.

All owned.  Some downloaded, ready to fire up.  None played.  And that's just A through F.  Yeah, I need to stop.

A fair few of those are not FPS games.  Neither is Saints Row.

Saints Row isn't technically First Person Shooter though  :-\
Nor is AssCreed or Company of Heroes.

EDIT: Ninjas.

RE:BATMAN,

If you want the DLC for Arkham City, it's actually more expensive to buy all of that than the pack. Oddly enough.

My purchase list so far:

I have something around ten bucks, so I'm holding out 'til the end. Or until Recettear is on sale further.
If I had more money, I'd probably have bought several games that I don't care too much about but would interest me for a short while and provide some entertainment. All considered, I'm not really much worse off being without funds.

Saints Row isn't technically First Person Shooter though  :-\
Nor is AssCreed or Company of Heroes.
I heard Assassin's Creed 4 is going to be a FPS for most of the combat, with 3rd person used mainly for free-running sequences and dialogue.
Except I didn't. It's entirely believable, though.

Isn't Civ 5 a Steamworks game which means you can ONLY activate it on Steam?

Yup. I actually bought it at the store so that it wouldn't HAVE to be on Steam, but nope, can't play unless you install Steam. I can't remember, but I think it downloaded from Steam as well, making the disk...a CD key, essentially?

Would it be out of line to ask you fine, handsome folks to vote for Legend of Grimrock, should you have no greater preference? It looks like fun, and the cheaper, the better I always say.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

I did earlier, because I enjoyed it, and hope others will as well. It also had the greatest discount.  :D

As I saw someone asking after it earlier, the batman franchise pack is up on the flash sales for the next 8 hours at 81% off, the individual parts are 66% off. The Civiliation pack containing all of civ 3, 4 and 5 + dlc's is at 75% off, as are all of the seperate parts for the next 6 hours.

But no Gods & Kings.

If someone is new to civ I'd recommend Civ V + G&K over anything else.  (and maybe the korean and ancient wonders dlc)

I'd rather reccommend the Civ IV: Complete Edition which they can get for 6,24€ at the moment.

Guys, I need a favour... there are some games that are subject to (AU) regional pricing and may be on flash deal. If any on them does go on sale, will any of you Americans be kind enough to gift it to me? I can pay the fund in advance/reimburse by PayPal.
