Dammit, I've looked at the sales for the last couple days, thought to myself, "Hmm...I think I might get that, but I'll think about it and buy it later," then I forget to go back to it.

I came really close to pulling the trigger on the DOOM pack just to relive my DOOM II days from the freshman dorms. "OMG - we can play against each other in different rooms? That's amazing!"

I should have just bought RDR when it was on sale at Amazon. Now I'll end up buying it used, I'm sure.

The whole Rockstar collection can be bought -71% for $40.

As someone who's only played a bit of Max Payne and GTA 3 (but enjoyed both), is it worth playing some of the older GTA's like Vice City?

Yes, Vice city was great imo as well as Max Payne.

Bah, I was waiting for RUSE to go on sale, but 33% off just isn't good enough.

Just bought Max Payne and the GTA4 pack. I figure it will be Christmas 2011 before I clear my gaming slate enough to dive into any of the other GTAs anyway.

took home Elderscrolls IV today (yes, i know somewhere up this thread i told i hated rpgs, its just always the curiousity and raving reviews these kind of games get that make me wanna give it '1 more shot')

for others: despite it still being a hefty price tag, NFS Hot Pursuit has proven me well worth its money, and i almost paid double. As an arcade-racer its great, the multiplayer makes it beyond awesome imho. If you liked outrun 2006 (for some a laughable title, for others (who enjoyed the arcades?) a true gem) think that times a hundred in every aspect

What turned me off from the elder scrolls series was the way leveling worked and the way the skill improves govern when you level and the stat multiplier you get.

This isn't in itself bad, but the nasty perfectionist side of me kept rerolling trying to get a 'perfect' character with perfect major skills so I could level when I wanted with maxed out multipliers. That pretty much killed all the fun for me. :P

Alright YouR_DooM said he might be down for some Titan Quest action, anyone else? It plays just like Diablo 2, and is a loot collection style game. The game is set in 3 difficulties, and I think if you're clearing all the zones running through all the acts takes about 20ish hours.

Here is a youtube clip of some gameplay for anyone that might be interested:

Still $10 on steam I believe for the gold pack. If we could get 3 or 4 people together it'd probably be a lot of fun.

Not a Steam deal, but Impulse has this for $4 (list $20, currently $10 on Steam). Would be pretty cool to get a 2+2 multiplayer game going.

Are Empire and Napoleon worth $20? I really enjoyed Rome Total War. Do they live up to it?

I read some initital reviews from when the game came out. And it sounds like Empire was a great game that had some significant bugs with the AI. Were these patched?

Been waiting for TF2 all sale, and now it's DL to my HD.

I have no answer to your RTS question if it's not SC2.

The only game left on my WANT list is Company of Heroes, but it's already on sale for $5 so I'm going to pick it up regardless.

I was never a fan of Empire Total War, I loved Rome and Medieval II. Something in Empire just made me hate it from the minute I started playing.

Hmm, I think I'll wait until the spring sale or next year and see if it drops to $10. It's ridiculous how Steam has warped my idea about how much I should pay for games. I've bought like 10 games so far, including 2 single player RPGs, so I'll definitely have enough games to hold me over until the next sale.
