Steam is having a sale to commemorate their 1 year Steam Greenlight anniversary. Some decent deals, but I'm not going to jump on "Papers, Please" until that gets down to 50% off..

Mass Effect trilogy for PC for only $11.84 after using coupon code GMG20-8MUTY-M21VN at Green Man Gaming..

Thanks. I think I'll pick this up even though I already have the trilogy on PS3. It is probably my favorite gaming franchise and I wouldn't mind playing through again on PC.
I really should get back into that.. I never finished my second playthrough with my Renegade Kate Shepard. Of course, GTA V comes out next week....
After a little more research I think I'll stick with my console copy even though this is a great deal on 3 of my favorite games. The reason I am passing is because none of these games have controller support. I understand not including it on ME because it is an older game and controller PC players weren't as common back then. I can't believe it isn't available on ME3 or even ME2 though. It's not like these were PC only games. They were huge on the 360 too so the control scheme for the 360 pad already existed. I even looked into third party programs for controller use and it sounds like they are barely functional with these games.
I know that most members of the PC master race will scoff at my aversion to mouse/keyboard controls. I grew up as a console gamer and I am just more comfortable with a controller especially because I always game on my couch. I'm fine with the keyboard and mouse for strategy games but I am terrible at games that require shooting and fluid movement without my controller. It really hurts the enjoyment level for me so I simply won't buy most PC games that don't include controller support.

Gamefly is having another big under $20 sale. Lots of popular games for less than $20 like Borderlands 2, the new GoW games, etc..

It depends on the game for me. I think I'd prefer PC controls for that if it meant I could bind/hotkey all the various powers and attacks. Having to constantly pause in the middle of battle to give orders and such does break up the flow quite a bit IMO. When I play Saint's Row the Third though, I always go for the gamepad, and it was Saint's Row 2's LACK of good controller work that stopped my playing of it. I think nowadays the whole Keyboard/Mouse VS Gamepad issue is a joke anyways since any serious hardcore PC gamer is going to need a controller. Yeah obviously in FPS games, mouse and keyboard reign supreme. But now with the incredibly wide range of games nowadays, I can't imagine playing a game like say, Rayman Legends or Super Meat Boy without a controller (although I have seen someone actually complain about the fact that SMB tells you to use a controller when you start it up, which apparently was offensive to him somehow.)
Good new Humble Bundle. Games like FTL, FEZ, Mark of the Ninja, Trine 2 among others. Just wish I didn't own most of these games already..

Yeah this is a good bundle but I already have FTL, Trine 2, FEZ, and Mark of the Ninja.
Well you also get soundtracks, and apparently more games are coming. It may get better next week, as that is when they are adding them.
Gamefly is having a sale on games from Kalypso, which is basically the Tropico series and a bunch of other stuff you probably never heard of. Worth looking at though..

Dark is a pretty new game for only $15. I think it came out in June or July. It also has some pretty terrible reviews scores though.

Yeah.. after I saw this review I basically gave it a big fat NO..

As yourbeliefs predicted, Saints Row 4 looks like it is going to drop in price quickly due to the GTA V release. Its only been out for a couple weeks and Amazon has already reduced the retail versions by $10. The PS3/360 versions are now $49.99 and the PC retail version is $39.99. The download price hasn't dropped yet but if this is any indication it won't take long. GTA V hasn't even released yet and they have already dropped the price. I am expecting to see a pretty decent sale price once it does.

Hmmm... hopefully Steam/Deep Silver will do something more profound, like a 50% price decrease. If this publisher has proven anything as of late, it's that they're not afraid of letting out big discounts, as was proven by their humble bundle deal a few weeks back.
