Edit 23/06/16 - Changed the title of this to "PC Gaming Sales thread" - there's plenty more stores with deals just as good or even better than Steam these days.

Definitely, especially with the new expansion pack.

Paul-LFC · « **Reply #6 on:** December 20, 2010, 07:37:53 pm »

C&C4 (Tiberian Twilight) is the most recent one, it's £14.99 on Steam.
C&C3 (Tiberium Wars) is £11.24.

I'd wait to see if they get further discounts as daily deals first before you buy one though

Edit: Indie Packs added to the first post. Some great deals there if you don't own any of the games in the packs.

Anyone ever played Sim City 4? I loved S.C. 2000 but never played any of the sequels, I'm wondering if it's worth a go. I suppose for a fiver it doesn't even matter!

Andy @ Allerton! · « **Reply #22 on:** December 21, 2010, 08:35:22 pm »

Even more offers on today until Jan 2nd.

Pick a few bargains up myself. The list of unplayed Steam games continues to grow apace!

Paul-LFC · « **Reply #23 on:** December 21, 2010, 09:22:04 pm »

Today's deals added to the first post

Nothing for me today, but that's mainly because I already own all of the ones I'd want to buy

Some very good games there though, particularly The Witcher, Lara Croft GoL and Defense Grid.

So what's people's Steam names then? Mine's whiteylfc

Ycuzz · « **Reply #24 on:** December 21, 2010, 09:23:28 pm »

Haven't decided what to get yet.

Argh. Always so slow with these things, I knew it was coming, yet here I am, scratching my head, wondering what next.

Fuck it, just get the lot

Tomaldinho · « **Reply #25 on:** December 21, 2010, 10:22:49 pm »

Vice City: £4.01.....no brainer especially as it isnt on XBL

I played through that Lara Croft GoL game with my missus and we loved it, i think it's much better than the normal Tomb Raider games actually. Reccomended! (on co-op at least.. I'm not sure what it's like single player)

Have decided to buy Civ IV (I already have it but a dodgy version, I think it's about time I got the legal one, what with it being one of the best games of all time.. ) and I'm going to give Sim City 4 a go

Great game!! Played it through a couple of times. Can't wait for number 2!

Paul-LFC · « **Reply #32 on:** December 22, 2010, 07:03:02 pm »

Today's deals up

I'm tempted to buy Spore, especially as it's only around £11.50 with the expansion pack.

At £5, Just Cause 2 is a must-buy if you have any interest in open-world sandbox games and your PC can run it.

Slick_Beef · « **Reply #33 on:** December 22, 2010, 07:43:15 pm »

The missus and I both just bought the Left4Dead pack (1 & 2).. 10,49€. Should be fun... I sense a late night

@ Leighton - IMO the best FPS of all time, give it a shot. (excuse the pun)

Obviously less people are playing it online than there are playing MW2 or Black Ops, but there's still a few hundred been playing it today according to Steam, and that number should only increase with this sale.

Unbelievably, MW2 is still 40 quid, so for a quarter of the price MW1 seems like a good deal.
