I finally found what i was looking for, in the form of
http://isthereanydeal.com/
It brilliantly collates all the best specials around from a huge number of digital distributors and keeps you posted. you can even import your steam wishlist and get notifed when stuff goes cheap online :-)
what i also dig is that it shows you historical pricing, so you can see what's the cheapest its been in the past to work out if its a good deal or not.
just thought i'd share this and find out of you guys use any other means to track bargains and sales. I swear, i think i enjoy the "deal" more than the game
