I bought Torchlight during the holiday sales but only played it for about 2 or 3 hours. I liked it but wasn't in the mood for a long playthrough. If this had at least LAN multiplayer I'd happily pay 20 or 30 bucks for it, but 5 is enough for the game as it is.

There's a website that does this sort of thing across GamersGate, Steam and GOG.com.

http://didimatic.com/dd/en/onsale/

It lists savings, regional pricing, restrictions, and DRM for titles on sale.

I don't know why Impulse, or Direct 2 Drive are looked over. Not that I visit those others very often as they tend to have rather stringent region locking (Us/Canada only deals).
I didn't particularly liked the way the organize the list but it's great thing they do. I'll keep checking their page every now and then.
As for regional pricing and restrictions, I usually avoid them by registering myself as an American costumer. We don't much content officially released here so is either that or turn to piracy.

Kalypso's strategy game pack is 50% off on GOG

You can get the whole collection for 50% off, which amounts to a discount of nearly 25 bucks or get the individual games at 30%. Frankly, I can't spend any more money now, and I absolutely suck at most of those, but Commandos 1-3 and Patrician 1 and 2 are pretty damn tempting.

Trine is $5, until monday.

Its worth that even if you've only a passing interest in platformers. Average difficulty is actually quite easy if you keep your '3' character's powers upgraded.

Controls nicely on the PC and only makes me more upset that marketing is really all that stands between the PC platform and a Shadow Complex release (a similar '2.5d' platformer).

Trine's buggy demo crashed my computer. I'm in no hurry to buy the full version.

I never tried the demo, in fact this is the first time I've played the game. The sale seems to coincide with the latest patch.

I've had hours of fun with it and nothing like a crash has happened. Did you have your graphics settings too high? I set mine a bit high but the only adverse affect was sluggish movement so I toned down some settings and its smooth as silk.

Good fun.

Also I see with the release of The Passing for Left 4 Dead 2, they've got a little sale on that too, buy L4D2 for $20. I was tempted, but its the low violence version in my region.

Steam's EA Week is currently on, for those wondering friday's sales will be Mirror's Edge, Dead Space and Spore. Saturday is Mass Effect Day and Sunday is Dragon Age Day. I might finally pick up Awakening if its a decent chunk off.

Trouser's Day offering at Telltale Store
Telltale is giving away a free episode of Wallace & Gromit, Muzzled! (arguably the best). Also, you can get the whole season for 10 bucks. Offer lasts until the 28th.

Good games. Never played Another World but I'm a fan of the art style. I already own Sanitarium, I'm saving it for the Halloween season along with Silent Hill 2, A Vampyre Story, and Sherlock Holmes: the Awakened.

Gamersgate has neat price reductions on a dozen adventures this week, including full season downloads of Sam & Max (for those who regret missing the weekend Telltale sale) and Tales of Monkey Island, Simon the Sorcerer 1-3 plus (separately) 5, and Secret Files: Tunguska.

I use www.find-games.co.uk for the cheapest prices.

Anyone know where I can get cheap DS games from Canada that ship to the UK - other than eBay and Amazon?
