Games Addict: Bargains noticed in the sales (updated)

I know I have too many unplayed games (and havent even updated the embarrassing list with what I bought the last few months…) but it will be hard to resist to get my hands on games that were on my watchlist they get below £10! I need help :D

Company of Heroes: Gold EditionCompany of Heroes: Gold Edition

This weekend only: Sins of a Solar Empire £10.49 Impulse (already own it)

Still going:

Planescape Torment,  £9.73 thehut (own the original)

Borderlands, £12.73 , TheHut (not going to resist much longer but resisting as I have yet to even install all my recent purchases)

Demigod, £7.98, Gameplay (bought)

Warhammer Online, £5.98, GAME (I already own it)

Champions Online £9.98 GAME

Silent Hunter IV Wolves of the Pacific $14.99 Steam (bought when it was 9.99)

Red Faction Guerilla, £7.98, Gameplay (compare to $19.99 in the Steam Sale) (tempted…)

Fallout 3, £6.98, Gameplay (bought)

World of Warcraft - Battlechest, £6.98, Gameplay (cheaper than a 30 day sub)

Assassins Creed Directors Cut $9.99 Steam

 

Defense Grid, $2.49, Steam

(now 6.99) (bought)

S.T.A.L.K.E.R $1.99 Steam

 

Mirror’s Edge $4.98 Steam

 

Fahrenheit / Indigo Prophecy $3.40 Steam

 

Steam has a huge sale but most titles in it that I checked are cheaper elsewhere, so do check unless you like the steam friends connection - I listed some of the bargains below. Impulse has a sale on older titles, I picked up a few action titles (for example the shadowgrounds set) and Fallen Earth at a bargain price (gone up a little again, but still half RRP), Eve Online is $9.99 as well. Torchlight seems $9.99 everywhere

I managed to buy Fallen Earth twice during the sale, that’s how bad I was!

Gog.com had 30 to 45% off on most of their catalogue - at $3.89 I bought some I already own on original CDs for the convenience of the configuration for Vista/Windows 7 compatibility. Games include: All Might&Magic & HOMM, the Descent series, Ground Control Series, Earth 21.. series, Hostile Waters (a firm favorite of mine), Sacrifice (another favorite), Spellforce (another favorite), Disciples 2 (cheaper than the Steam sale), Giants, tons more . And yes, I bought a few I already own, just for the ease of playing them again, and the soundtrack and other extras.

These are of course biased to games I noted in the past, plenty more bargains out there. Let me know if you find better ones!
