Paradox Interactive Publisher’s Sale going on at Fanatical. If you have a 10% off code from a previous Fanatical purchase it should be good on most of the titles in this sale, which include:
Pillars of Eternity : Definitive Edition - $14.39
Cities : Skylines - $6.89 and lots of DLC 50% off
Stellaris - $9.19 and lots of DLC 25-52% off
Lots of CK2 and EU4 DLC for 50% off or more
Fanatical also has the Mystery Gold Rush Bundle, which is another one of those blind purchase gambling bundles. This time they pinky swear that if you buy the 10 game bundle at $9.99 the 10th game will be a “diamond” level game, whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean. As usual, buyer beware, here’s the Reddit thread detailing what people have received.
GreenManGaming has kicked off a rather complicated Summer Sale. Basically they’ve sorted deals into Gold, Silver and Bronze categories. If you purchase a game on sale you’ll receive up to 5 free games and a discount code based on which tier of game you bought on sale.
Between the discounts and the freebies there are actually some really nice deals to be had if you take the time to sort through everything and manage your purchase properly. The Intel Starter Pack that comes with any Gold or Silver purchase contains games like Star Trek Bridge Crew, Gas Guzzlers Extreme and Raw Data.
Speaking of that GMG sale, I was wondering whether they support buying more than one key for the same game. I’ve had my eye on Strange Brigade as maybe something I could play with my 13 year-old nephew (since the single player is supposedly no great shakes).
However, 1) does it even run on Windows 10?, 2) Will I sit and wonder how I put up with those dated graphics, 3) Do I have the patience to re-learn arguably one of the worst control schemes in a first-person game ever?
Maybe the game is best left as a fond memory and I should stick to SWAT 4.
You should be able to purchase more than one key for any game on GMG. Given the discount code you get for purchasing a Gold Tier game though (15%), I’d do it as a single key purchase to start, get the 15% code, then see if it will allow you to apply the code to a second purchase of Strange Brigade. If so, you just scored an extra discount and another set of 5 freebies, if not, nothing lost but some time.
I honestly thought they would cancel it. Since one of my cameras is sitting next to me, clearly they didn’t. I picked the camera I had been eyeing for awhile. A 13k camera would be wasted on me. I wonder how many of the ultra expensive ones are just going to be resold.
BARGAIN ALERT - Double check pricing on GreenManGaming before you purchase something from the Steam Space Sale, as not only might it be cheaper on GMG, but if it’s in the Gold or Silver tiers of their sale you get a bunch of free games with your purchase and a discount on your next purchase.
