not the ringing endorsement I was hoping for. I think I'll pass, even though $8.49 for everything is super cheap!

I played magicka just fine 3 player co-op online with a couple of my buddies. We had some issues at launch but they were worked out and we had a fun time with it.

How could you not like Darkstalkers? :p My favorite character was either Donovan or Hsien-Ko.

You mean Tropico $3.74? :p

Seriously, you can't even buy a Big Mac for that. What have you got to lose?

I loved Tropico 3, I played it in the morning while drinking my coffee. A damn fine way to start the day off IMO.

Same here. I ended up grabbing the DLC, haven't played it or read anything about it so hopefully it's worth it.

Bought Singularity. Looks cool.

I picked up singularity as well.

I spent some time sifting through the sales. There are a lot of hidden gems to be had. Here is a list that I've found so far:
- Eschalon Book I and II: Both are 75% off. Old school WRPGs, very high reviews for them by the old guard.
- Penny Arcade's RPG epsiodes: Both episodes for only 1.80!
- NFS Pack: Includes Hot Pursuit (new), Shift 1, Shift 2, and Undercover 50% off
- Aquaria: Great side scroller, 75% off $5
- Caster: Indie game, quirky third person action game $1
- Gratuitous Space Battles: 75% off $5
- The Longest Journey + Dreamfall: 75% off $6.54
Post up your hidden deals as well. I'll probably get that NFS pack on the last day if they don't have a deal on them before then. I already jumped on Aquaria, Caster, and Penny Arcade.

Thanks for the info. Caster looks interesting as does Eschalon.

The THQ pack caught my eye. Always liked the Company of Heroes games and since I lost my retail copy of it a while ago I've been waiting for a sale...

LOL, glad I waited on the NFS deal. They have it for 68% off now.

Feedback on today's deals:

Everyone needs to buy Monday Night Combat. It is simply awesome.

AI War is a fantastic strategy game and works as either single player or co-op (no competitive). The game is very challenging and games can take several dozen hours to complete.

Guild Wars is an excellent online RPG with a great art style, compelling storyline and a unique skill system that almost feels like building a deck in Magic. It is essential to play with others and even organize skills to complement that of your teammates but I would not call it an MMO.

NFS: Hot Pursuit is a lot of fun. The Autolog feature adds a great level of competition that will keep you trying to one-up your friends. Handling can be a little floaty and definitely takes time to get used to.

king arthur complete pack for $4.50 is a good bargain if you like total war type games with magic.

Picked up Monday Night Combat 4 pack... I have a few friends that will likely like this game. Now I need the time to play all this crap...

Luckily I sold some hockey equipment recently and that is where the funds are coming from :D.
