    It closes on Christmas day. When on Christmas day? Uh, some time on Christmas day. I made it like 5 minutes ago and can't remember what time I set it to. Oh well.

    I would say it closes at "The best time."

    Allright: One of you mugs is going home with Super Meat Boy. Best to step forward now.

    This classy gentleman gifted me the game. And he was so very kind enough to gift my wife Critter Crunch.

    Any "must have" DLC for the Total War games? I don't think I'm willing to bite on the $40 pack with everything.

    Which one? Most of them are unit packs which are cool but not necessary. Fall of the Samurai is the best DLC as it's basically a full game.

    Any/all of them. Fall of the Samurai's included in the cheaper pack, so no worries there.

    Rise/Fall of the Samurai are excellent in their own right, especially Fall. I really enjoyed the Ikko Ikki clan, and I think there were some new ones that I haven't got around to. Hattori was all right but not my style.

    Huh. It's kind of weird, but Rise isn't in either of the Total War packs.

    @Urahonky just gifted me Sword of the Stars II off my wishlist in retaliation for me giving him my free x-com copy of Civ V some months ago. I don't know why, though, as the whole point was that I was able to give a free copy to someone who wanted it. So I just gave him Hotline Miami. Hopefully he'll abandon his dangerous game of mutually assured destruction.

    @kaliyama Oh we'll see.

    is sleepy dogs totally awesome, or can I hold off on this?

    From what I heard, it's a pretty good GTA-like game. At this price, if you're into this kind of game, I think you should totally buy it.
    And @FredZ89 has finagled me a copy of Dishonored that I will apparently receive in January, or whenever Gamersgate gets around to giving out the keys sold as a result of their massive screw-up. This new guy has some class, and should do fine 'round here.

    OhStopItYou.jpg

    Oh you're the one who @FredZ89 said wants Dishonored! I promised my key to him but he said after receiving Skyrim and many other gifts from other PAers that he wanted someone else to get Dishonored. Happy to help. :)

    Torchlight 2 for 10 bucks at Gamefly. http://www.gamefly.com/Download-Torchlight-II/5004159/???

    Use code HOLIDAY20 to get another 2 bucks off bringing it to 8 bucks.

    Steam.

    They also have Walking Dead, Hotline Miami, Skyrim, Dishonored, XCOM, Borderlands 2 for 50 percent off. With the 20 percent coupons those are all better deals that Steam has had or will have.

    Steam needs to step it up a bit. Amazon, Greenman, and now even Gamefly are having better sales on big titles. I guess they can take comfort in beating Impulse at least.

    Nice. Since I'm a subscriber... Walking dead was down to like $12 already and with the holiday coupon it brought it to $10.

    Congrats to @baudattitude for winning my Skyrim giveaway! Sent it to you by email :D

    Wow, I did not expect my number to come up :) thank you very much, sir, this will be my first elder scrolls game since, uh, since one that came on 1.2MB floppies.



    Make sure you mark the gift as recieved on SteamGifts if you got it. If not, then I guess contact me on Steam.

    Also, wow, you're in for a treat. Skyrim is quite a game.

    Redeemed and marked on Steamgifts, now sucking down 5GB through the drinking-straw-sized pipe that Comcast seems to have decided is all I deserve right now. Looking forward to it :)

    So Ace of Spades is not good? Bummer

    If I was to buy the THQ pack and put it in my gift inventory, is each game an item? Or is it one whole pack that I'd have to give to one person?

    I would also like the answer to this question, if anyone knows. I own about half of them already, and it's the half I'm more interested in, but if I could gift them...

    Anyone? I need to gift!

    That wasn't my original question, I guess I shouldn't have quoted him

    I want the THQ pack. I don't have any of them. I want to keep some of the games, and gift some of them to various people. If I bought the pack and choose to put it in my inventory, is each game an item in my inventory so that I can do that?

    Or is it one single item that you can't break down?

    I've only bought the extra civs, I'm not a scenario man. The extra civs are slightly mroe powerful than the base ones, but otherwise they are just more of the same. Gods and Kings is really good though.

    Apparently the expansion is fantastic and the rest of the DLC is just more stuff and I don't think Civ V needs more stuff, especially when you can jus tmod it.
