    Guys I'm still on the fence about the Telltale complete pack. I'm only interested in it for the Sam & Max and Monkey Island. I don't really care about their other stuff which is why I'm hesitant to plop down the money for like 4 games I don't even care about.

    But at the same time, its only 50 bucks for a few games that individually are worth like 70 dollars when combined. I just don't know. Its been so long since I've even played an adventure game of that type that I don't even know if I would enjoy it or appreciate them.

    I wa about the same, wanted S3 for Sam and Max and kinda the Monkey Islands. I decided to just go with the Monkey Island remakes, if you preorder SoMI2, you get 1 for free. I feel this was the right choice for $10.

    Ok so I guess I do need to save something for future purchases. I'll wait on the Telltale stuff for now. Maybe Christmas will be good to me. And its not like I'm lacking in games anyway. Between Tropico and King's Bounty, I'm set for a looong time.

    A lot of those games were daily deals, so probably purchased at even lower prices than what they list at currently.

    Wow, and I thought I'd been buying a bit too many things for my meager time and finances...

    The Witcher
    Aquanox Pack
    Sid Meier's Civ IV
    Titan Quest Gold
    Thief: Deadly Shadows
    Star Wars: Empire at War
    Freedom Force Pack

    ...but of course being a jobless university student, what I think as "too much" appears to be way under everyone else's :P. Anyone know if Star Wolves are good games? To round out the expenses and all.

    I have the first two games and have not beaten them yet. I actually love the concept but told myself I would not pick it up until I beat the other two first.

    I know it is only three dollars but I am betting that it will be on sale again around Christmas.

    Really wanted to get JC2 and Metro this sale... but 24.99 just seems so much for a game after all of this!

    Cracked and bought Men of War, Cryostasis and the Chrome pack

    Was a great sale.. I spent too much though. Got The Witcher out of it, which I'm enjoying the fuck out of... so win for me.

    L4D2 (as part of a four pack)

    I came out pretty cheap, over all. I really wanted Warband to go on sale, though. I'd have bought it if it dropped under a tenner.

    So I think I'm done now, barring some weird break down wherein I buy the Witcher for the third time or something. With that said I don't think I came out of all of this too badly:

    THQ Pack
    Blood Bowl
    King's Bounty
    Thief
    Jagged Alliance 2/Disciples 2 combi pack
    Beat Hazard
    Star Wars Empire at War
    P.B Winterbottom
    Bioshock
    Shatter
    Osmos
    Commandos Pack
    King Arthur Pack
    Flotilla
    Super Laser Racer
    AvP Classic
    Ghost Master
    Puzzle Kingdoms

    So my grand total is just shy of £80 and, with the exception of Blood Bowl, I regret nothing so far. However I might not be done since the Witcher is still tempting me, as is the Freedom Force pack. all I have to do is be strong for another 7 hours and 13 minutes. I can do that---right?
