Grotesque Tactics, PC – £3.25

Cheers drahbor for the tip off.

The Steam Christmas sale will be over in less than 24 hours, so if there is anything in it you have been waiting to get, make sure to get it now.

You can see the full list of everything that is on sale here.

You should probably all recommend good discounted games in the comments.

In the current Steam sale, Valve are trying something new, where for some games, you get a greater discount if you own another named game (often one in the same series, or by the same developer).

However, it appears that if you qualify for the discount, you can also get the cheaper price when gifting.

If you want to get one of the games that has a potential additional discount, but you don’t own any of the required games, it might be worth canvassing your friends list for someone who does qualify for the discount and is willing to purchase the game on your behalf.

50% off everything at popcap.com

Excluding Bejeweled 3 and bundles. Available until the 2nd of January.

Cheers revilo for the tip off.

I just got this message from Red:

For the steam sale copies, at least. If you add the code to EADM, you can select the Digital deluxe version, which apparently includes Vietnam as well.

Does this work for you?

Update: This is confirmed as working for multiple people now, so get on it ASAP before EA realise this mistake/Change their minds.

Update2: Possibly only if you got in the sale/recently.

Apply coupon “STRATEGYFAN” to get 60% off anything from Strategy First.

Although they appear to think it’s still 2003, and are charging you extra for “Extended Download Warranty”.

Unlike Steam, GamersGate have their sale all in one place, in a sensible list. Thanks guys.
