    What awesome last minute deals did you decide to buy? I have already purchased The Longest Journey pack for $6, and Company of Heroes for $2.50. I opened Steam up a moment ago and grabbed Terraria for $2.50, I am glad I waited a couple of days for that deal to kick in! Then after that I purchased Never Winter Nights 2 Platinum edition for $6. I am done with these deals now, my bank account is hurting right now. So what have you all managed to grab for sale over the past few days? I know there have been a couple of threads on this already, but I did not feel like bumping them.

    I'm waiting to see if one of my friends decide to get the Terraria 4 pack, but if they don't I'll be buying Terraria and Hitman:  Blood Money. 
     
    EDIT:  Ended up buying these myself.

    Hoping they still have something new planned for tomorrow instead of just rerunning the most popular sales. Definately picking up some of the indie stuff that didnt get daily deals before the sale ends.

    Nothing yet. If Singularity or Just Cause 2 goes back on sale for a "best of", I might pick one of them up. Otherwise I'm actually good for the summer.

    Edit: Ok, so I gave in and bought Hitman: Blood Money.

    Seventeen dollars later and your bank account is hurting? Wow. But really, sounds about where I usually am. Actually gonna jump on Terraria right now, since I been planning to get the game anyways, and this is too sweet a deal to pass it up.  This is actually making me into a poc gamer, because there are so many great games to take advantage of on a daily basis without the deals. Steam has made me a believer.

    The last day is usually a best of, which sucks because I wanted the Chaos expansion of Dawn of War and Witcher 1 on sale. I might have to buy The Maw.

    Portal 2 and Magicka ended up being my only proper purchases this year in the sale. I'm happy I didn't go overboard and buy a load of stuff.

    I did also buy both Oblivon and Hitman: Blood Money at £1.49 each, though. I already have and completed those on the 360 years ago, but it's nice to think I can have them live on in digital form on my PC and dip into them casually. Plus Blood Money doesn't work on the 360 through HDMI which is lame.

    Divinity II - The Dragon Knight Saga. After the horror/hilarity of the 360 version quick look my mind was blown when I gave the PC demo a try. Ninja jump splits and charm.

    Your typical $60 for a single new game can buy you an all-you-can-eat buffet of games from a Steam sale. That's how I always look at it.

    I kind of want Dead Space 2, but I don't know how it runs on PC, and more importantly, how it would run on MY PC. However, it's 15 bucks. So.....bah. I don't know.

    @myketuna: Unless your PC is really old it should run just fine. It runs very well on my two year old machine with pretty much all of the bells and whistles on. Not to mention it controls very well. Just a fantastic game overall.

    I've got Puzzle Agent, GTA IV, GTA IV: Episodes From Liberty City, Left 4 Dead 2, Audiosurf, Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, The Polynomial, and The Finals Hours of Portal 2. 
    I'm still considering getting the Dead Space pack, even though I already own Dead Space 2 on PS3. And if Bad Company 2 is in the Best Of for $5 again, I'll get it too.

    • Civ V Gamersgate Retail
    • BIT.TRIP.RUNNER

    And since tomorrow will probably be re-runs of previous sales I will buy the other games that I was waiting on, hoping for a daily.

    Which are:

    • Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
    • The Longest Journey + Dreamfall
    • Aquaria

    Magicka...and...that's it. I guess I'm less interested in these sales every season (these are pretty much seasonal, aren't they?).
