    Packs stay on sale for the week right? I might just wait on the Squeenix one and see if I can pick up the games I want from it individually.

    I keep getting this weird error with the DDG avatars. It tells me that "private profiles are not compatible with the signatures. Your profile must be public." Thing is, my profile is public. I've tried a bunch of different URLs as well, no luck.

    And just to try something else, I tried recreating my steam sig and got the same error. It's probably me since it seems to be working for everyone else, just wondering what else I might be missing.
    Same thing happened to me, you actually just need to put your profile ID in the box, not the full URL.

    Thanks Darlan and Suds. Sorry for my idiocy.

    I swear at some point the way the site worked required you to put the entire profile URL in there. I haven't been back in a while.

    I can guarantee it didn't.

    Erm, those packs are extraordinarily passable at those prices. 19.99 down to 14.99? Unless you want every single game in that pack, you're likely not going to bite.

    Forty bucks for the bethesda pack? I already have most of those myself, but that's going to make a lot of people very happy.

    Edit: $25 for the Valve complete pack!!

    I think the prices aren't completely updated yet because those packs are telling me that they are more expensive than just buying the games individually.

    Wow $3.75 for Meatboy? So sold. Also $5 for the Forgotten Sands? Sold sold. Still less than stellar deal on AC2. That game will just not drop low in price.

    Oh look, THQ pack. Who would have thought?

    Seriously, £35 is a pretty hefty bargain if you don't own any of those. You have to wonder just how much THQ must make on that pack purely through volume of sales when they can say "“Our Steam business is going through the roof".

    I guess EA is buying pretty heavily into that cheaper price = more profit thing

    Guess this would make sense since BC:V just came out.

    Not to mention the Vietnam expansion pack just came out, so that's a way to spur sales of that.

    Especially since you need the Steam version of BC2 in order to play the Steam version of BC2 Vietnam.

    Woohoo Super Meat Boy bought!

    It's been only two minutes and they got me already!

    I see no splashes on the front page, though. If I had read about the SMB sale here, I wouldn't even know it.

    C'mon Valve, I wanna see your fancy funny Xmas splash.

    Cheaper prices + Crazy volume of sales = more profit.

    That, and there's gigantically increased profit margins on DD releases compared to B&M retail. According to someone from 1C publishing, it can be something like 3-4 times the profit margin of store bought copies.
