Day six has arrived!

Only the Deus Ex games are on my "played and should be played" list at $2.49 each.  Guild Wars was decent but won't be every ones style.

The rest of the sales are on my "haven't played but maybe I should" list.  Notable ones: Civ V, Monkey Island games, and the Need For Speed games.
I recommend NFS shift (1) if it is for sale. Have not played the second one.
edit: I see they are all on sale...

Had Underground once. Got chewed up by it. Didn't buy another need for speed, or some other racing game after that until recently.

One thing I don't like about arcade-ish racing games is the "rubber band effect".

Day 7!

My recommendations: The left 4 Dead games.  Go now.  Buy.  Prototype at $14.99 isn't bad, it's a fun game.  Far Cry 2 at $4.99 is a good deal and the original is $2.49 as well.

My considerations for today are the GTA IV complete pack at $9.99 and the Gothic pack at $18.74.

KOTOR is definitely one of the best deals I have made in a long time. It's a great and long game, and it went off just with 6€
If you don't have it yet, I can warmly recommend getting it.

Hm... I'd recommend the Sims 3 pack if you're willing to get a lot of mods for it.

Same with Oblivion.

I'm still peeved that Steam won't offer the second KOTOR game.  :/

Seriously.



unrelated:
Day 7!

Sales seem a bit meh to me today.  Nothing I'm interested in.  I have the quakes and audiosurf but if you don't know what quake is you probably have no interest in it and everyone in the world has audio surf these days, don't need my recommendations.

I see COH there and I'm sure we'll here a "buy this!" from at least one person today. :P  Me I'm a bit peeved with steam right now for not letting me buy anything for the past 12 hours and ignoring my support request ticket.

I have to recommend against getting cities XL if anyone is thinking about it. The controls are terrible even for a sim style game.

Yeah, quite clunky. Too late for me though. Have had  it for months.
