Valve got me to spend ~$30 today with their weekend deal and another surprise discount. You can get the Crysis games for 50% off (I got the first one) and the entire Overlord collection at 75% off—including the newly released this year sequel—for $10. Ten! Overlord is one of my surprise games I’ve found in recent years to be completely underrated. It’s also evil that Steam stores your credit card info now.
Asides
- The Blur beta started today on the 360, and yours truly was able to score a code. Let me say this: Think Burnout Paradise + licensed cars + Mario Kart - annoying powerup randomness + the leveling mechanic of Call of Duty = the best online racing experience I've ever had. I knew this just fifteen minutes in. Each race is about 5 minutes long and is intense, pretty, and wonderful throughout the entire course. If they make no major changes in the negative, this is a must buy. Now to get it on PS3 or 360? —Nat [Comment]
- I think this is the end is near for Blockbuster. Not only are they bringing back late fees, which nobody likes, but they are raising the prices of old releases to 5$. Wow. I thought that they were circling the toilet before. —James [Comment]
- The fine folks at 4 color rebellion are handing out beta keys for the Bizarre Creations Game, Blur. These guys made the Project Gotham Racing series and Geometry Wars. Hits in my book. blur looks extreme. Right now they have 50 keys posted and have a ton more to hand out. Are you in? I am. —Nat [Comment]

Steam: enabling users since 2008.
Wait, that $10 Overlord pack includes Overlord 2? Shazbot!
I picked up the Crysis pack a few minutes ago. I mean, I have a rig that can crunch suns into interstellar dust… I might as well see how it fares up against Crysis
Just another update, but Impulse is selling Demigod at %50 off for $15.
Another steal.
I’ve had too many good PC game this year. Welcome to the renaissance.
Dawn of War II
Demigod
Borderlands
Torchlight
Don’t forget Dragon Age: Origins on the PC.
I would have mentioned that, but I have it coming via Gamefly for the PS3.
However, I understand that the PC version is the one to get.
