Post any sales or good deals you've found on video games in this thread. Maybe that way we (I) won't miss out on those 1 day only sales.

First up: It's the

now through July 22. I live in the USA, so I'm not sure about availability elsewhere.
A few highlights:
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim US$39.99
Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3 US$29.99
Max Payne 3 US$29.99

Also, a ton of older games for as little as a dollar.


Now, if anyone comes across anything else, please, post it.

This doesn't just have to be about Steam. Post deals for Wii games from Walmart or what have you.

is having one of the "set your own price for an indie bundle" sales for 5 more days.

Games include Rig'n'Roll, Space Rangers, Reign, and Theatre of War 2. Death to Spies, Death to Spies - Moment of Truth, King's Bounty, UFO and Star Wolves are included for paying more than $7.58 (currently).

I'm not familiar with any of the games or the site selling them, but thought I would mention it since I happened across it.

GreenManGaming.com has been running 25% off vouchers since Labor Day. The most recent expires on the 17th--use voucher code GMG25-1BW0K-K1A3G at checkout. You can use the voucher multiple times, but only once per transaction. This stacks on some but not all pre purchases and sale prices. Of note right now is Borderlands 2 PC digital version pre-order for a Steam code with the pre-release bonus DLC for about $36 after sale + voucher. You can also now pick up the BL2 DLC Season Pass for $22.50 after the voucher, potentially netting you the game and all DLC (day-one and future) for less than the sticker price.

Here's a game deal. PM me and I'll give you a Steam key for Wizorb, BIT.TRIP.RUNNER, Gratuitous Space Battles, and Jamestown.

I bought the last Humble Bundle and already had these games. All four games unlock with one key so I can't split them up.

has 60% off Activision games and there's a long list. That includes the Police Quest, Space Quest, Kings Quest, and Quest for Glory games. How these games came to be under the Activision banner really threw by brain for a loop. My brain says "Sierra" games but I suppose that long hasn't been the case.

Toys R Us is selling some games that are normally in the $40 - $60 range for around $10. Some of the titles include Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, Skyrim, CoD 3, Sims 3, Battlefield 3, Batman Arkham City, and Assassin's Creed. I don't know how long they will be at this price or what the stock is like in the stores, but I saw some discussions claiming it is possible to use price matching deals at stores such as Best Buy and Fry's to get the same price.

I don't see a page with them all collected together but

list a lot of them. Search if you're looking for something specific.

Out of Stock for Shipping. Store Pickup Not Available. Sold In Stores...?

Meaning that it exists theoretically and if you walk into the store on the right day you might find it?

I do see WoW and SWTOR available for cheap though.

Yeah. I would guess it's one of those "limited quantity/while supplies last" deals. I don't buy physical copies of games anymore so I won't be checking it out, but I would recommend calling and asking if they have the game(s) in stock before walking into a store or try price matching at another store. I don't think all Toys R Us stores even sell PC games.

YES! Just bought Zeus & Poseidon.

Also Dungeon Keeper II is also on sale for $5.99. And if you have never registered with GoG, they will give you 2 free games, which includes Ultima IV (though in my opinion, Ultima VI was the best one)

...$10...Diablo 3...

I would live with the always on DRM for that price. Too bad it's out of stock unless I travel for a few hours to a Toys R Us.

Blizzard sent me a key for a free digital copy of World of Warcraft Battle Chest, which includes 30 days of game time, The Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King expansion packs.

I''m giving it away for free and that's a good deal. Anyone want?
