Humble Jumbo Bundle 3
I'm sharing this link, not because I think it's a good bundle, but because it's got an interesting gimmick.
As usual, some games are available for any price:
- Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure
- Always Sometimes Monsters
- Insurgency (with 3 copies to share)
Then there's more for beating the average:
- GRID 2
- Blackguards
- Euro Truck Simulator 2
- More to come
The blatant attempt to bump up the average price:
- Saints Row IV
Then there's the twist that I haven't seen before:
Share Insurgency to Unlock:
- Full Mojo Rampage
Is it worth it? Nothing I've seen about any of these games says it is, though nothing says it isn't. I certainly wouldn't pay $12 if all you want is SR4, since I got the "Game of the Century" edition for $10.19 not too long ago, and it'll be on sale again before too long. That complete edition might even be part of a Humble Bundle in the future.

GoG.com is having a big Fall sale right now.
The big news is that as of this writing, they're giving away Mount & Blade for free. Just scroll down about a third down the page and you should see where you redeem it.

Mount & Blade, or Mount & Blade: Warband?
Huh. I thought that one was already free, and that Warband was the pay version.
And speaking of Warband: it's 75% off on Steam right now.
You.....you don't say.[DOUBLEPOST=1416253113,1416252916][/DOUBLEPOST]
Pretty sure I know the one you're talking about.
One of the reviews:
"I wish I had bought pizza or kebab or blow up doll instead."
A Reviewer said:
The stuff on sale's either stuff I've already got, or stuff not discounted enough for me to take the plunge.
Though I get to ponder whether I want to spend twelve and a half bucks on the full version of Civ 5 again, like I do every sale. I have the base game, I have the first expansion, I have some of the DLCs... how much do I want to play the full game? Decisions, decisions...

I remember from one of the gaming nights there are a few of us who still haven't picked up Left 4 Dead... well, it may be worth it to hold out a little longer, as this is the first steam sale in a while I can remember where L4D2 has NOT come down to 5 dollars (it's 10 right now).[DOUBLEPOST=1417071012,1417070726][/DOUBLEPOST]None of the stuff I really have my eye on is on sale to any real degree - War for the Overworld (the spiritual Dungeon Keeper 3) is a paltry 10% off, Rust has no discount whatsoever, and Starpoint Gemini is only 33% off and still above $20. No deal. Road Redemption is $15, but that's only 20% off... I think it can come down more.
Amazon has Shadow of Mordor for $25.
It's...okay. I guess. When it's good it's very good, but there is a lot of filler in the game - although that filler is more tedious than throw-the-controller-at-the-wall-infuriating like LoS2. Overall I enjoyed it but don't think I'm ever likely to bother replay it.
But if you do buy it do NOT, I repeat do NOT, buy the DLC. Infuriating platform sections where one mistake knocks you back to the last checkpoint, followed up by a massively cheap final boss.
We've been trying to get a night of it together for awhile. Ideally, we'd want 4-8 people.
Depending on the day/time of that day I might be able to play L4D2 - I haven't played any online FPSes for about 7-8 years though, so I'd probably not be that great.

I'd love to join in on a HF game of L4D2. Skill level doesn't matter to me, as long as people are having fun. Losing in hilarious fashion to friends beats out winning with grumpy strangers.
I'm good for two or three games before my computer overheats.

Humble Bumble has a major 80% sale on a number of titles. The one that I'm eyeing very with heavy consideration?
Saints Row Ultimate Franchise Pack, $13.74
Includes Saints Row 2, 3, and IV...and ALL the DLC for each of them.
Goddamn, that sounds like a great deal.

It is. 2 was a bad console port, but it's my favorite plotwise in the series. 3+4+all DLC... that's a damn good deal.

Shadows of Mordor was $20, then it wasn't, now it is again: Amazon product

There have been a number of sales that have appealed to me (the Lego games, most notably), but I have so many amazing, unplayed, games that I already own... I just can't justify buying anything more at the moment. I'm mostly tempted by the Lego games because I know I'd love to have something relatively simple to play if I get sick and just want to turn my brain off in the middle of a bout of the flu, but I just couldn't quite convince myself, not when I have more important things to spend money on.
