Maybe we should just have a thread for game bundles and sales if this becomes more frequent.

Okay!

This is the official thread for game sales (be it Steam/Desura/etc sales, Amazon sales, whatever) and bundles (Humble Indie Bundles, Indie Royale, etc). Since these are becoming much more common nowadays, especially in the indie market, it'd probably be best to keep this thread up to date instead of making a bunch of them-- especially since there will likely be a bunch of sales going on for Black Friday/Christmas/New Years and so on.

Recent bundle threads (now closed in lieu of this thread):
Indie Royale thread (Difficult 2nd Bundle now finished.)
Humble Voxatron Bundle thread (now finished)

Merging Paul's thread to this one, since it just started.

Because merging screwed up the post order:

Anyway, not really a bundle, but some codes to buy directly from the developer's sites:
http://www.showmethegames.com/sales.php

Frozen Synapse is on there in case anyone missed it. Again, my name is ProfessorPaul1290 on the UK1 server. Remember that this comes with two copies. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVGu_ydmwm8&hd=1
AI War: Fleet Command is on there as well, which I've mentioned before as one of my favorite strategy games next to. There's a demo on Arcen's site which I highly recommend at least trying if you like strategy games at all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KO125KMoVjE&hd=1
Evochron Mercenary is there as well, which I recommend at least checking out the demo for if you're looking for a space sim. It's somewhat like Freelancer except with Newtonian physics and combat similar to I-War 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW6vHgRgTe8&hd=1

Space Pirates and Zombies, Gratuitous Space Battles, and a few others are on there as well.

Keep in mind these are codes for purchasing directly from the developer's sites so if purchasing from that dev's site lets you register it on Steam, Impulse, or whatever then that will work as it normally would.

Lots of stuff is up to 80% off on Gamersgate, it seems

Fate Matsyrossa · « **Reply #3 on:** November 18, 2011, 03:38:00 am »

There's a sale going on on Steam for Super Meat Boy's anniversary. Contains Super Meat Boy, of course, as well as games like VVVVVV, World of Goo, Braid, Mechanarium, Aquaria, and more, all for 50% off, or 75% off if you buy the whole package..

Funny, the only one I don't have is BIT.TRIP Runner, I own every other game in the bundle. XP Still, that is a very sweet deal.

Same here, except I also don't have Half-Life 2. Which doesn't appear to be discounted (any more than usual) anyway...

The new Indie Royale is almost out, but this time, there is a twist-- to help with server load when the games are first released, they have started a preorder for the next bundle for $3.99 and up. The catch? You won't know what the games are until they are released, but you will receive them immediately.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Also, the new Humble Indie Bundle is now out-- this time including Introversion games Darwinia, Multiwinia, Uplink, and DEFCON, as well as prototype tech demos, and Aquaria and Crayon Physics Deluxe if you pay over the average.

Introversion games

What an... interesting choice for a title. Anyway, bought.

Part of me says "I already own all of those games already, don't I" and another part of me says "it's worth a little to support indie developers, isn't it". I'll see how much I have left over after I pay my rent and utilities for the month.

Also the craziness of Steam sales strikes me again as I just bought DX: HR and all DLC for US$40.

Fate Matsyrossa · « **Reply #17 on:** November 29, 2011, 05:59:40 pm »

Huh, neat. I thought Eufloria looked interesting a while back, so I shall check this out.

For those who haven't clicked the link, this bundle's lineup includes:
Really Big Sky
Runespell: Overture
Cthulhu Saves the World and Breath of Death VII
Eufloria.

EDIT: Also, Dungeons of Dredmor, a fantastic and hilarious indie roguelike, as well as source codes for Darwinia, Multiwinia, DEFCON, and Uplink have been added to the Humble Introversion Bundle. Seven days left!

Dungeons of Dredmor added? Goddamnit, just when I thought I'd skip this bundle

Arashi Kurobara · « **Reply #19 on:** November 29, 2011, 08:01:35 pm »

Maaaaaaan, I *just* bought Runespell Overture during the Steam Autumn Sale, too. Think I'll skip this Indie Royale, I already own all the half that interests me.

Also damnit Humble Bundle why can't you do Steam keys on a per-game basis like Indie Royale, then I could give someone else that copy of Dungeons of Dredmor which I already owned. >=| (Also I guess Uplink too since I already owned that. =P)

Terraria's 75% off for today only. Not saying it's not worth the full price, but if you want it for cheap, now's the time.

Not mentioned, but important: This is the start of a full month of sales on Steam. And, every day you visit the page for the daily deal, you're entered into a daily drawing. 10 people each day get the top 10 items on their wishlist.

EDIT: Okay apparently it's not all month long BUT WHATEVER

I was reading this and loving it until I realized that it was for Steam users. It's not like I don't have Steam, but I really really hate using it. I much prefer to play games without having Steam in the background, because space on my laptop is at a premium and every little thing makes it lag. Oh well.

Bastion is $4.99 on Steam today. I do think I recall some folks wanting to look into this, so here's your chance!
