It seems like people are a bit confused over the pricing of BL2 for some reason - the 4 pack is currently $162, or about $40/copy. (That's after a weekend special of 10% off) Initial retail price for the game is $60 so the 4 pack currently saves you about $20 each. The base game is also 10% off right now, so it's on sale for about $54 dollars.

I'm tempted to chip in on a 4 pack although the payment method would have to be decided before hand...

Damn, there's a 10% discount on BL2 until tomorrow. The whole 4-pack is currently available at 135€, which is approximately 35€ / person. Are there 3 other Europeans interested? Just PM me here, or friend me on Steam (Maunoir).

According to my steam, it's only £81 (104€ish). That makes around £20.25 per person (26€ish).

So, stellar impact: It does look like a mildly entertaining little game, is my impression true?

Basically, you customize a space ship and take part in team deathmatch while capturing points and trying to destroy the enemy base. Teamwork is basically required, matches can drag on quite a bit, and the servers keep track of how often you quit in the middle of a match. The community was pretty small last I played, and I don't think it's gotten much bigger.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Maunoir hit me up on steam when I was active and got the extra copy.  Hopefully they mark it down again, thanks for all the interest.

Ok, so I picked up a 4 pack of borderlands 2 during the sale.  It ended up being $40.50 USD per copy.  I have 3 people lined up from the DFC already.  However, that leaves me stuck with an extra.  It's pretty discounted 40.50, instead of 60 and it comes with all the pre-order stuff.

Anyway, let me know if you want it and add me as a friend on steam.

Paypal is pretty painless.
err if no one picks it up can you hold it for me?

Man.....I reeeeeeaaalllly want gene forge or tropico to go on sale. I learned to never buy anything unless its on sale, or else it will go on sale next week and you will cry. So now I am torturing myself by watching let's plays of these games, who do it badly and make me want to play them more.

fyi geneforge saga (all 5 geneforge games) is in the current indieroyale bundle which is going for $5.50 minimum  currently.  Looks like you have choice of steam/non-steam activation.  I'm about to pull the trigger on it basically just for geneforge... http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=113883.0

I have the Geneforge series, but I haven't really gotten into it. Probably should, though.

Theres a mod for most of the series on the Spiderweb forums that (potentially) gives you ludicrous power levels if you just want to see the story. Or its usable as a stat/items editor for non-OP levels of power.

Same here. It makes more economical sense to hold back and while it's tempting, I don't see the point of buying newly released games. Bug fixes, patches, add-ons, DLCs, and all that. Especially when you have so many other games lined up, which I am sure many Steam users are suffering from. :P
