Cheaper than $40 for BS2. And with this you can still play with FC2 players.

If I had some money I would upgrade my Black Shark and plug it into World. The World engine offers many nice improvements over the FC2/BS1 engine. Though World gives me CTDs every now and then.

$5 for Black shack is a steal. I'm not sure if helo sims are my thing, so this is a great opportunity to test pilot the best on the market. If I like it I can then upgrade to the latest version and still save $15. If you are prepared to wait you could buy bs1 now for $5 and then wait for the next %50 off dcs sale.

Just bought Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition for $24. I have played Fallout 3 extensively and enjoy the post-apocalyptic universe. I've been wanting to get this especially because of the American Southwest setting. I've had ESIV and Fallout 3 for years, put tons of hours into them and still haven't experience everything.

That is my suggestion. The only confusing thing is that on the website for World there are different downloads for Upgrade users and BS2 users. Just remember to download the right one and you should be fine.

That`s only the stuff available at steam, you can easily sink even more money into it, as there are dozens of developers producing stuff for RW3.

However, who ever was even remotely interested in getting it, grab the Haulin` USA pack, RW3 + 3 Expansions (Horseshoe Curve, Donnerpass and Northeast Corridor) for 5,80 . This is a steal. Running out in around 12 hours.

I`ve just bought it, unfortunatly one can`t gift RW3 to others, as I technically own two copies now.

Even after Steam sale ends, you can save $10 but doing the upgrade route.

DCS Ka-50/BS 1.2.0 Module is $39.99 by itself on the DCS E-Shop,

But you can buy BS1 for $9.99 from DCS E-Shop,
then buy the upgrade for $19.99,
So $29.98, Total for BS2 Registered,
Then download the Module and your gold. Save $10~. (but you have to download 3 Installers (BS1->BS2->DCSKa50 Module)

Indeed.

I've already bought L.A. Noire for the 360 but 10 for the Complete Edition on the PC? Shut up and take my money!

Noooooooo! I've vowed not to buy anything, to resist the evil capitalist mind corrupting Pig-dogs of Steam, and have thus far stayed strong. But I saw the trailer for LA Noire ages ago and it looked quite good. Curse you!

*Resigns himself to buying a game on impulse that he will probably play for 2 hours tops, inevitably get bored with, then discard*

I still haven't even started GTA IV. *groan*. What am I doing? I've got to stop buying games or I'll never learn Falcon BMS properly, its like a second job in itself lol. sigh

You have to hand it to them, its a very effective marketing strategy. They introduce the 'fear factor' of missing out on a 'bargain' for something you hadn't really previously considered, with their sinister clock of impending 'missed bargain' doom. I hate them.

Damn your eyes! I've been tempted to get L.A. Noir pc but will maintain sound judgement. I have it on 360 and have not completed it yet.

I did buy New Vegas though. And though I can run Skrim almost maxed and modded with good performance, it runs like a turd for some reason. Maybe if I verify game cache it'll fix.

Skyrim twice has degraded in performance out of the blue. Once I reinstalled thinking it was conflicting mods. However yesterday it did that and I know for a fact I left it running fine. Did a system cache thingamagigy test and it worked fine again.

I think steam and all of its constant updating, synching and so on and so forth is causing this. Not sure though.

Already have LA Noire on Steam, waiting for Skyrim to drop even further. Haven't finished Fallout 3 or started New Vegas yet so I'm not in a hurry to get a new RPG yet. I rather wait for another sale. Probably in Christmas. Maybe. By then I'll get some new DLC along with it, all for the price of a full copy at launch day, or less.
