I enjoyed reading the Steam sale topic, and I think something like this would be nice to have all year round. Sure, there are sites like Cheap Ass Gamer etc. but they have a lot of noise, plus I'm also specifically interested in your finds and recs.

Allow me to start -
the latest IndieRoyale bundle just went live (they are very... daring to do this so soon after the Steam sale!)
https://www.indieroyale.com/

IMO their bundles have been sort of hit and miss lately, but this one has not only Puzzle Agent - which I totally forgot to get during the Steam sale - but also the entire Geneforge saga, which offers a ridiculous amount of oldschool RPG gameplay. I've been meaning to get it, because I'm always interested in unconventional magic-themed games, but the series bundle was a bit pricey. Now I can get it for cheap!

Also, it looks like Amazon is going to have a daily deal on the FFXIII-2 collectors edition in about three hours, we've just started playing this game - my brother bought it two weeks ago in a local shop, also on sale - and our initial impressions have been favorable (the collector goodies are also nice, but I could've used MORE audio :D )

Nice idea! This'll be a good place to point out deals. :3

I picked up the Royale bundle... I already owned Puzzle Agent, but none of the rest! I'm looking forward to playing Geneforge and Oniken... and maybe even Unepic a little.

If I find a cool sale, I'll be sure to post it!

I got pretty excited this weekend when I saw FF13-2 on sale at Target for $20. Even though I haven't been able to get into the first game, I felt this was too good to pass up. They only had 2 copies left and it was the first day of the sale... Good hunting.

In the sales department I usually use limits. Most of the time I use power up rewards coupons and hardly ever buy the game fresh on the market. Anything below $20 is great, $30 is reasonable, $40 is debatable, and anything above that is not.

Ooo! Code of Princess was just a LITTLE too steep for me to pay, but that $10 off pre-order might be what I need to buy it... I still have to think about it, but it's a nice deal. Thanks for sharing!

Nice! Even World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria seems to be included. Newegg has been the place to go for new games this year for me.

..Aside from the one day a while back that Best Buy's B2G1 free on ALL games (new included) bugged out online and became B2G2 free. That was glorious. o_o

Stuff!

IndieRoyale has its new Gone Fishin' bundle, with SOL: Exodus, All Zombies Must Die!, Cubemen, SQUIDS, two Platformance games, and other goodies.

This week, Best Buy is having another Gaming Blowout. Highlights include Rhythm Heave Fever for $5, Rayman Origins for $10, and about 100 other items, so check the list and hope your Best Buy has what you want. (I picked up the DS Rhythm Heaven and DQM: Joker 2 for $10 each)

If you have an iProduct, Cave's having a weeklong sale on their games on that platform. Cave games include Deathsmiles, Dodonpachi Resurrection, and others.

There you have it!

Ah, nice! I wanted to pick up the DS and Wii Rhythm Heaven games. Looks like I was too slow on this one though, as they can't be shipped anymore.

I highly highly suggest you all check out cheapassgamer.com or slickdeals.net I have saved an extraordinary amount of money because of those sites.

Right now for anyone who hasn't played for whatever awful reason you haven't! Uncharted 3 is $20 on amazon.

I can't make up my mind about this one. For people who bought it - what swayed you?

Stuff I picked up yesterday. That Best Buy sale is no joke. I hope they are not going out of business. Kirby's Epic Yarn only $10 new? @_@

For some reason it won't take my Visa check card :(, such a good deal too. Hard to find cheap points these days.

I've never heard of the site, but I used my paypal. I always use it especially if it's a site I never heard of. Got my code immediately and redeemed it with no issues. I'd sign up for paypal if I were you, always great and safe to have.

Nice site. Glancing through it, I found that you can download Faerie Solitaire for free until 11-8... so I did that. xD If I remember right, it's not terrible... and who can beat free?

Heyhey, it's Black Friday time and there are game sales all over the internet! Here are a few. Feel free to add more!

Steam (obviously) - https://store.steampowered.com/

Amazon has some nice deals on PC and console games. Watch their deals calendar. I'm looking at Max Payne 3 for $15 on Friday. - https://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=vg_allpages_quicklinks_calendar?ie=UTF8&docId=1000853511&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-leftnav&pf_rd_r=0F60CCB603CC466ABFCB&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1421951422&pf_rd_i=14220161

GOG has a sweet 'Pick 5 games for $10' deal. https://www.gog.com/pick_5_pay_10

And there it is. The sale between the Halloween sales 3 weeks ago and the Christmas sales 1 month from now. So many sales...

Thanks for the heads up on that amazon sale. I saw Max Payne 3 in a gamestop catalog for $20 and got super excited. Can't believe it's even cheaper on amazon (or will be tomorrow).
