That game seemed to get quite a positive vibe when it came out, if I recall.
If you buy Skyrim (for PC at least) at a brick & mortar Target store, you get a $10 giftcard.

The Steam weekend deal is an F1 2011 + Dirt 3 bundle for $34, or $25 each separately.

I don’t get it either. They are obviously operating at a loss to build an audience, but to what end? As soon as they start charging normal prices, everyone’s just going to go back to Steam.
Seems like the dot-com bubble all over again to me.

I desperately want them to succeed but their Facebook page’s “fans” were whining for a voucher immediately after they made Skyrim available.

Hope I didn’t end up just paying 4x for Skyrim. Something wrong with GMG’s payment/checkout process where it fails on “too many redirects” in both Chrome and Firefox. Urgh.

Probably not. I had issues earlier and had to contact GMG (was getting some error 747). It looked like the site tried to check me out 20 times but failed. I got a response back from GMG who said they “unlocked my account” - whatever that meant. Then I tried again, this time my CC refused. I called my CC company who had put a hold on my card and told them that the GMG purchase was OK. I then asked if there were any other GMG purchases today and they said no so I think your issues are probably just their site being weird.
Steam Daily Deal for November 12th is Skyrim for $15 (75% off).
Just kidding.
It’s actually 75% off the Alien Breed games. $5.74 nets you the trilogy, individual titles are $2.49 each.
You’re so reliable Ned, that I would have believed you long enough to do a couple double-takes if you would have played it completely straight and not added in the true info.
Has anyone who dove in for the Newegg Skyrim preorder deal gotten their copy yet?
We’ll never trust you again.

I received my copy on the 11th. It probably helps that I’m close to their NJ shipping facility. Most items from there reach me by the day after they ship.
Hi all, is the alien breed trilogy worth getting? Any comments on the gameplay? Is it something like space siege?

I chose this over Skyrim after watching both GiantBomb quick looks… :o

The first hour of Saints Row the Third (all I’ve had time for so far) is a total riot. A steal for $39.99.
I got an email from cliffski
Today marks the first day of the first two-week ‘Show Me The Sales’ promotion!
Hosted by the online indie game database at www.showmethegames.com, ‘Show Me The Sales’ is a collection of indie game developers who are each offering substantial discounts on their games over the next two weeks. Unlike any other games bundle or sale, SMTS is a collection of sales hosted directly by the developers, acting just as a directory of discounts, so you still buy the game direct from the individual developer, and the developer gets to keep all of the money.
Just to emphasise that, ShowMeTheGames takes NOTHING from any of the sales, or the developers.
The Show Me The Sales website is here:
http://www.showmethegames.com/sales.php
And it runs from 14th to the 28th of November. Games on discount include Scoregasm, Gratuitous Space Battles, SPAZ, project Aftermath and lots more. Plus, every game has it’s own youtube-embedded video for you to check them out.
Do you have to buy the games one at a time to get the discount?
Its in my cart at amazon, but I am debating if I should just wait till the Steam winter sale, I have no time to play it :(
