    Nothing, apparently.

    Unless you count today's Daily Deal - Ninja Reflex, which is £2.03 / $3.39.

    But but but... Awww.:(

    True... and for freebies since I traded it for a game I won during the X-mas sale, but still... they didn't top the potato pack!

    ...win.

    Also, I tell a lie. Ninja Reflex is actually £1.36 / $1.70. Sorry 'bout that!

    I would buy Big Rigs just for the heck of it. And then it should have awardements like: travel 10000 miles. Some real grinding shit.

    I missed Bulletstorm. Snap.

    Today's Daily Deal is Turba. £1.74 / $2.49.

    EDIT: Last week, the Penny Arcade games were on offer and someone mentioned there was going to be a third. A bit late, but here's some more info on that.

    Today's Daily Deal is Capsized. TotalBiscuit liked it, so I guess that means I do too. £1.49 / $2.49.

    This week's Midweek Madness is the X Superbox, half price at a staggering 19.99, whatever your currency, for 6 incredibly in-depth and well made space sims.

    There's so much game there for your buck it's unbelievable, and the only problem I have with it is that the price hasn't been converted on any of the games after the original one and its expansion. That's just plain lazy, and it's not fair, especially Europeans who'll have to pay even more than us in the UK. Absolute bollocks.
  • edited April 2012
    Capsized is supposed to be pretty good, but I never liked the FPS/platformer hybrids. I think I'll pass on this one and it almost pains me do to so as it does look very decent. I just don't think I can get past the shooting mechanics.
  • edited April 2012
    You can actually save 54 whatever cents when you buy the X-games separately as long as you choose the X3 GoldBox.

    Ah, isn't price conversion glorious.

    Another Midweek Madness has been brought to my attention! It's Blur. £3.75 / $5.

    Today's Daily Deal is SpaceChem. No idea about this one. £2.37 / $3.39.

    Also, Spiral Knight's holding an anniversary event where you can win 'exclusive costumes'. Woo.
  • edited April 2012
    I did not like SpaceChem.
  • edited April 2012
    Neither did I. Stupid game.

    Well I barely play the game, but free content so yay?

    Today's Daily Deal is Frozen Synapse. Good if you like that sort of thing. I guess. :p £6.45 / $8.49.

    Also, the Weekend Deal is Duel of the Planewalkers 2012 Gold, which is 66% off.

    I'll be Rather Dashing and say its fan-freaking-perfect.

    I on the otherhand say it is a great stragety game, but stragety games aren't my thing so :p.

    Also, remember you get two copies of the game for trading/gifting to a friend.

    Duel of the Planeswalker 2012 on discount?

    Not sure if INSTA-BUY, but I'll think about it.

    Yeah, but it's the CE and they don't force you to use the client. Doubly awesome!

    Wait, is the GoG one the one that's CE and if so, what does it have?

    The gamefly one was what I was talking about on crap clients BTW.

    The GOG one comes with the soundtrack, an art book, and some other stuff as well.

    Might as well get that one then. Any reason why this game is free?

    GOG wants to get more people to create accounts.
    More accounts usually means more future sales.

    Good enough of a reason as any. Valve did the same thing with Portal come to think of it.

    (sorry, I don't have converted UK prices)

    --
    I don't know anything about Crusaders.

    The core Might and Magic series games are turn-based, party-based, first-person RPGs.

    The Heroes of Might and Magic games are turn-based strategy games, with turn-based tactics view during combat.

    They're really pretty good games. I think my mother has played through all of these except Crusaders.
  • edited April 2012
    People who haven't tried Heroes of Might and Magic and enjoy strategy games even a little should definitely grab them. They are the apex of the genre.

    Today's Daily Deal is the double-pack of Breath of Death VII and Cthulhu Saves the World. 99p / $1.49.
    If you don't already own these, then I highly recommend them. They're made by the guys who are behind the new Penny Arcade game, so you can't really get much better than that!

    Cthulu has rather repetative gameplay, but is hilarious and can defenently hold the entire game.

    never played BoD VII so :o
  • edited April 2012
    BoD is like Cthulhu, but it's a bit more bland and doesn't have as much funny text or cutscenes (such as they are). I stopped playing it after a while.
    Regardless, Cthulhu improves on it markedly and is definitely worth the purchase by itself.
  • edited April 2012
    Cthulu is a much more polished game because it was released after BoD. Both are worth playing.
  • edited April 2012
    Already have both, never finished either, had fun nevertheless.
  • edited April 2012
    I never finished Cthulu because I needed a break from that style of RPG after Breath Of Death. Also they start similar and that doesn't help.

    Today's Daily Deal is A Stroke of Fate: Operation Valkyrie. It's a point-n-click adventure, though it's not got the highest rating amongst critics. Still, it's only £1.74 / $2.49.

    Oh, and yesterday saw the release of some Penny Arcade skins for Dungeon Defenders. Just FYI.

    Dungeon Defenders was fun, but man it is not SP friendly, anyone here ever need a partner for that game, I would love to give it another spin.

    Today's Daily Deal is Waves, one of those space shooter thingies. £3.49 / $4.99.
