My haul: Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Ed. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Jamestown Puzzle Agent Terraria Swords and Soldiers HD Hamilton's Great Adventure Sanctum
Gifts: Terraria Torchlight MTG 2012 Portal 2 Sanctum x3 Defense Grid x2
Pretty happy with the sale, I had been waiting for Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition for a while, so getting that for $10 was the highlight for me. Out of the cheap impulse buys I did, I've been really happy with Jamestown and Terraria.

Fallout: NV + DLC Magika + DLC (and a copy for my wife's account) Lara Croft & GoL (for wife) Garry's Mod Trine Singularity Star Wars: BF2 (4 copies - for de-discing) Worms Reloaded Universe Sandbox
Not too bad, kept the spending down reasonably well this time. All of those were $5 or less, except for FNV.

Pretty small haul for me just New Vegas with its DLC and some stuff I was missing for Civ V, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, and King Arthur. Also picked up a few copies for gifts of Alpha Protocol and got Terraria from a friend.
Really just wanted the mission for Fate of the World so got that and some cosmetic gear for MNC which I'll reinstall... eventually.

You know what I've had the most fun with that I wasn't expecting from this sale?
HOARD. The game is really really fun and easy to jump in and out of for 15 minutes of play at a time.

What the christ Wait is that the game created by the good Doctor Serek Dmart? If so, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING? You know every time someone buys one of his games, he rapes a kitten to death. TO DEATH.

I find myself to be spending much less on games, and mostly sticking to older titles. Especially since that... incident... with Duke. I think I've pretty much subconsciously sworn off all non-blizzard releases.
There doesn't really seem to be a whole lot worth getting right now, anyways. Spent around $30 and got:
Drakensang 2 expansion The Longest Journey 1+2 Amnesia The Path Zen Bound 2
and a few other cheap indie games.
Part of me wonders if I'm starting to get old, but in my heart I can't shake the feeling that modern games really are just not as good as older classics. Maybe it's just that nobody remembers the older chaff. Either way, I can just wait a few years and pick up the new old classics.

Get HOARD. You would like it if you spend less time on games now.

I almost picked up Hoard when it was on sale. I heard it's only worth like a few hours of gameplay though. Curious to hear how long it entertains for you guys.

I've already put 3 hours in it and there are about 25 levels yet to go. Plus theres ratings and achievements and stuff. It's a neat little 15-30m at a time game.

No lie.

Hoard is incredibly boring. Play the demo and you'll see what the entire game has to offer. Don't trust the monkey. The levels are just new maps, the gameplay is exactly the same.

Yep, it's the same. You fly around setting fire to stuff on different maps and stealing from towns. I would agree on playing the demo. If you find that fun, you'll like it. If you're like Bhodi, you'll hate it. It was priced right at $5 for the fun. I don't think $10 is worth it.
