XCOM is a great game, but don't buy it in this sale. In two days, Greenmangaming will put XCOM on sale for 25% off, plus a code for another 25% off. It's added multiplicatively, so it's not 50% off, but 46.75% off. Still a great deal. It's also a Steam key.
Terraria is a 2D minecraft far more focused on combat, exploration, and loot. There is actually a ton of content.
LIMBO is a great horror platformer worth checking out despite it's shortness.
Operation Flashpoint series is crap, don't even bother.

The Walking Dead's going super cheap, I see. I have no problem, with buying the game, at the start though. It felt necessary to follow the game from the beginning.
I'll be checking out Limbo.
And if I may ask, what's wrong, with Operation Flashpoint? I found Cold War Crisis to be enjoyable. |

Cold War Crisis is the good Operation Flashpoint game. Unlike the two modern games, it's an actual military sim developed by Bohemia, the king of milsims.
The modern two are piece of crap shooters that can't decide whether it wants to be realistic or arcadey, so it fits in an ugly middle. Just go read about them.

Torchlight II is a must-buy, but it's probably going to go on daily/flash sale.
Remember to NEVER buy a game not 75% off before the last day unless it's a daily or flash sale.

Also, if you like old school RPGs, I suggest buying Cthulu Saves the World for $1.50 at the moment.
For people planning to buy Terraria, I suggest you hold onto your money for Starbound (Or Terraria 2 some people might call it). |

Might as well review the other games.
Magic: The Gathering - Apparently worth buying if you want to get started with MTG.
The Walking Dead - I have heard nothing but positive from people. It's Telltale's best game, a magnum opus. It's more of an interactive movie though. If that is what you want, then it's a must-buy.
Darksiders II - The Legend of Zelda, Prince of Persia, God of War, Diablo, and dozens of other games, all in one epic 20-hour campaign. It's also THQ's last hope to get them back on their feet. Get it.
Age of Empires III - People say this is mediocre compared to Age of Empires II, nobody plays online anymore, and it's a ripoff at $10. Do not buy.
Intrusion 2 - The sequel to a flash game, this fast-paced side-scrolling shooter has a full physics system and is made with love. Seems interesting.
The Amazing Spider Man - I haven't heard too great things about it.
PAYDAY - Mediocre if you play by yourself, a must-buy if you have three willing friends.
Star Wars: KOTOR 2 - People are divided about this game. Some people love it even more than KOTOR 1, some people hate it. Both, however, agree the ending is crap. However, there is a mod that changes the ending to a better one. People say it's a great RPG, so might be worth looking at.

| Age of Empires 3 is definitely worth $10. It's not quite as good as #2 or the first, but it's still a fun game and feels a bit different. It's definitely worth it's price, ESPECIALLY when it's the complete pack. |

M&B will definitely go on sale for 75% off. If not, then winter sale. It's one of my favorite games, and everyone even remotely interested should pick it up.
People say that Wanderlust: Rebirth is only good if you: 1) Have friends, and 2) Love SNES RPGs.

| I'm a bit surprised (and disappointed) that Dishonored isn't on that list, with all the hype about it. Maybe it will be some other day, hopefully. |

Dishonored will probably go on sale. If not, Greenmangaming will have it 50% off on Black Friday.
And the Greenmangaming version of Dishonored is a Steam key.

New flash sales. PAYDAY, KOTOR 2, and LIMBO are no longer available. Now:
Dear Esther 75% off - Some people enjoyed this game, where you spend an hour holding down the W key, following a completely linear path, and listening to dialogue. Some people (Most famously TotalBiscuit) absolutely HATED this game. There is ZERO intereactivity, and it's really short. At least it's pretty and has good dialogue/voice acting.
Two Worlds II 75% off - Two Worlds was considered to be a piece of crap (Especially on consoles), but Two Worlds II is considered much better. It still doesn't really rival other RPGs, but it's still worth picking up for $7.50
Dungeon Defenders 75% off - Dungeon Defenders was good until you hit the grind. At that point, there is absolutely no point to keep playing other than to play the DLC. Still, it took about 50 hours for me to hit the grind. It's Diablo and generic Tower Defense games combined. Sound good? Why not pick it up?
@azndark666 What do you mean by "Resource demanding?" As in requires a good computer, or in-game resources? |
