The Steam specials thread

[Murph]

Too many games! I completely forgot that I bought Trine 2 during the last big sale. Only realized that this weekend.

If you bought Humble Indie Bundle 2 or 3, you can get a code to unlock Cortex Command on Steam. Buying it on Steam right now will set you back $17.99.

Really? Nice, thanks for the info dude! Now to just track down my HIB pages.

jeesus MW3 is expensive. 75 USD for everything *after* the specials discount.

Anybody know where/when I can pick up a cheap copy of BF3 premium? By copy I mean legit of course. Apparently there was a special on the EA site a week ago, but I missed that.

Have you looked on Origin? I haven't scouted around, but it's +/-520 there.

 

[HavocXphere]

First place I looked. 500 bucks is a lot of money for someone used to Steam specials though. Also...just shelled out 10k for a PC. :/

But yes, I don't see a way around it.

btw its only showing as R399 on my side?

Maybe give them a try?

R520 not gonna find it cheaper may as well pick it up

 

[HavocXphere]

Just realized why its R399 my side.

BF3 Premium and BF3 Premium edition is not the same thing. :wtf:

EA is really going out of its way to confuse ppl. Even the "*Battlefield 3 base game not included." is concealed by the "click here to show more details" button thing.

That excludes the expansions unfortunately.

Looks like Kalahari @R462 is the best.

The R399 offer is only for if you already own the base BF3 game. The R520 one includes BF3 and all the Premium content.

Nvm, saw you already noticed that. That should teach me not to skip posts before replying.

+1
And with the R/$ exchange rate, it is still cheaper to buy through Kalahari.

Darksiders II - 50% off (That didn't take long)

Actually, the 50% off goes for the entire THQ catalog. (THQ weekend)

Except for Company of Heroes which is 75% off.

Also, just found a new map pack dlc that was released for Sanctum ($4).
Not sure who else plays it, but I'm a sucker for tower defends games... Sanctum and Orcs must die being my favorites.
