    Just bagged me Dark Messiah of Might & Magic. I've had it on disc for ages, but 2.50 EUR is cheap enough for the convenience of having it on STEAM.

    Other than that, offers seem pretty meh at the moment. Which suits me and my wallet just fine.

    I'm sorely tempted to get the valve complete pack, but I REALLY don't need to be spending money.

    That's a pretty good game, actually - Easily worth €2.50 for the amount of times I've played through it despite its flaws.
    The voice-acting and story are both very cheesy, but a game with visceral, satisfying first-person melee combat and an opening scene involving first-person (implied) sex with a succubus has to be worth that much. :D

    I really enjoyed Heroes V.
    Haven't played much of the storylines, but me and friends have had many hours out of it.
    Am tempted to buy the Heroes pack so I can have them on steam, and get Dark Messiah aswell...
    KOTOR is also tempting me, since my CDs are getting pretty beaten up

    Just bought the THQ Hit Collection from Steam for £34.99, 85% off.

    All Dawn of War 2 packs, Company of Heroes and expansion, Red Faction Guerilla, Homefront, Darksiders, STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, Metro 2033, Saints Row 2, MX vx ATV Reflex and Titan Quest with Expansion (people keep mentioning it, I've never played it so reckon it's worth a look).

    I was only looking at Dawn of War 2: Retribution but figured it was worth it for a few of the others - the only ones I did have were the previous two Dawn of War 2 ones.

    A classic fantasy wargame:

    Dominions 3: $15 off download version until July 4th

    With a standard price of $54.95 this can't be described as cheap (though you get a 290-page manual with the physical version) but it isn't often discounted either, and there isn't much else offering the same degree of variety (literally hundreds of spells and over a thousand unit types). In addition it is still receiving updates with a new patch released recently.

    Picked up Borderlands yesterday with all DLC for £7 - never played it so I hope it lives up to the hype :)

    Borderlands is a great game and very addictive once you get into it. Not too sure about the DLC though.

    I love the screwed up pricing on the Bad Company 2 pack. :\
    If you buy all three bits separately you pay £9.76, but if you get the three items in the pack you pay £9.99.

    I was hoping Darksiders would show up in these sales. Although at the same time: Damn it, Steam! :p

    The BFBC2 deal is incredible value. I paid full price for the game at release and felt like I had gotten more than my money's worth out of it after only a week of play. Still enjoying it today.
    €10 for BFBC2 and Vietnam? That's a steal.
    Magicka for €3.40 is great too. Fun game, witty dialogue.
    AvP is just about worth a go at €5; but AvP2000 is still a better game overall in my view and €2 cheaper.

    These sales always make me wish the Steam browser had tabbed browsing. Kindof annoying to have to go to a real browser to enjoy the benefit of checking out multiple offers/games at once.

    Just wondering about Vietnam myself, don't see the point in the DLC as it's just visual. Is Vietnam worth it though? Is there much to offer over the original game, given that I've only just got into it and plan to get BF3 on release?
