    Just pre-ordered Monkey Island 2 - Le Chucks Revenge for £6.99

    Released in a couple of weeks, I can't wait to re-kindle my lost youth playing this classic again!

    Must ... resist.
    I don't have enough time to play all the games I keep having to buy because of Steam sales any more, but that THQ pack sure looks tempting.

    Complete 2K pack sounds almost too good for me. Damned Valve!

    The THQ pack is an amazing offer.

    Picked up Grid and Dirt 2 for just over a tenner yesterday, but I think that was a one day offer.

    WOW, so exciting! I'd have thought you'd have had this news story up first thing this morning as the sale started about 6pm last night.

    I was very pleased to load up steam to be greated by a MASSIVE sale!

    Now I can cheaply buy loads more games I'll not get round to playing lol

    Got these last night:
    Bioshock 2 9.99 GBP
    Grid (UK) 3.73 GBP
    Beyond Good and Evil 3.34 GBP
    Blood Bowl: Dark Elves Edition 8.49 GBP
    Peggle Complete Pack 6.99 GBP

    Also, the infamous DRM'd new Ubisoft games are now available in the UK. All 33% off. I'm keeping an eye on Settlers 7 to see if it is reduced further. Luckily my net connection is solid.

    Also gonna keep an eye on Stalker Pripyat to see if that makes it into a one-day sale, although even at £10.04 it's still cheap enough to tempt me on the last day of sale if it hasn't been reduced further by then.

    Had a quick look through last night and there wasn't anything that jumped out at me. All the games I saw at cheap prices I've already got.

    Woah, Square/Enix pack is awesome value - a few bits of roughage but mostly gaming gold in that package!

    Beyond Good and Evil, any good? I've not played it but it always seems to get banded around on websites.

    Bah, I wanted to buy the THQ Pack, until Checkout said I already had some games in the pack and I wouldn't receive another copy. Guess I'll not give them my money then. Shame.
