Your Best Gaming Bargain

[4RM3D]

About 75% of the stuff on sale during the massive holiday winter sale of Steam can be considered bargains, with discounts up to 90%.

Personally, I'll just say getting Terraria for 3 bucks was a good deal.

Also, ages ago, Fallout 2 was mis-priced and dropped in the bargain bin along with Fallout 1. During that time Fallout 2 was just released.

Finally, getting Just Cause 2 (physical; not digital) for 1 buck was awesome also.

£1.75 for terraria, THAT is a bargain!

That thing is fun as can be and plenty of time can be put into that game solo, I am sure it's even more fun when two or more people get on the same map and start having a war with each other!

Black Friday last year: $5 each for new GOTY editions of inFamous, Fallout 3, and MGS4.

 

[Courier_87]

Bioshock & Oblivion double pack brand new, £12. Bought for Oblivion but by far the bargain maker here was Bioshock

 

[vrbtny]

Fallout New Vegas for £4 - Steam sale
Mass Effect 1,2 for £12 - Steam Sale

I'd say FO3 GOTY for £10 aint half bad either.

I got both those Fallout Deals, except i think I got Fallout 3 GOTY for £7.50

Also got both Mass Effect games for £5.

ME 1 : 1.99
ME 2 : 2.99

Both new and in Amazon's Sale.

The GTA series through till San Andreas for £5 in a Steam sale.

 

[Anti Nudist Cupcake]

Best deal iv'e gotten was having my mom buying it for me.

 

[emeraldrafael]

i havea friend who works in gamestop, so I get games for a substantially lower value.

 

[wurrble182]

terraria - £1.50 paid, 100+ hours played.

 

[TerribleAssassin]

Counter-Strike: Source for free.

Thank god for the Steam sales.

 

[Diminished Capacity]

Probably Persona 4. Even with a $40 price tag, the time I've spent with it certainly makes it a good value. 70 hours in and counting, so the price has dropped to less than $1/hour.

Also, a still sealed copy of Symphony of the Night. That was given to my by someone who didn't know what they had.

 

[Zac Smith]

Half Life 1 with Opposing Force and Blue Shift and Counter Strike, like £2

 

[Velocity Boy]

My best deals:

Unreal Tournament 2004 for 10 bucks - price mistake, it was supposed to be $40 I think.
I found Jagged Alliance for 5 bucks in a grocery store discount bin. I had dozens of hours of fun with that game.

The last Humble Indy Bundle, I paid 7 dollars for 5 or 6 games.

 

[Doc Theta Sigma]

The original Knights of the Old Republic for £1.

It was a good day.

 

[Soulpunch]

Portal, Super Meat Boy and Fallout 3. FOR FREE!

 

[wottabout]

I got the Orange Box for $6 from someone who didn't want the game or his account anymore. This went great until Steam randomly banned my account and I lost the code to prove that I was the owner. Still, nice for the year or so that it lasted.

 

[R3dF41c0n]

Recently it was the entire X series for $9. Pretty much any Humble Indie Bundle and of course the Orange Box.

 

[ipop@you]

Well if we count it if you use coupons/vouchers I got: A PS3 (250GB), Dead Rising 2, Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, God of War Collection, God of War 3, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection, Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction, Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty, Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time and Resistance 3 all for 20p. I traded in my old Xbox, Wii and all the games and stuff for them and got a store credit voucher, I then used the voucher to take all but 20p off the other stuff.

Otherwise I've not really got any good deals other than some things in Steam sales.

 

[gigastrike]

Portal for free. It was having a birthday and Valve figured the best way to celebrate was to give it away to anyone who wanted it.

 

[Twilight_guy]

Half Life for 1 cent. Because Valve is fucking nuts.
