In case any of you feel that your Steam Games Library isn't big enough, and/or your HDD/SDD isn't utilizing all it's storage, there's another bundle deal out there. This time, it's the new Bundle Stars bundle, which has 12 games in it for $5. That's 12 games for $5. Part of it goes to charity from what I can tell.

That's cool and all and I definitely encourage as many competing bundle and deal websites for PC games as possible but I just don't have any interest in any of those games. I'll keep an eye on them for the future though.
Also, Amazon has just launched an Indie store, so they have a bunch of bundles as well:

Just picked up the Serious Sam humble bundle. I paid $4 to get 7 games that I have heard good things about but never played. I have no intention of playing all 7 of these games. I will pick and choose the best reviewed ones of the bundle and give them a shot.

Yeah I looked at my Steam Games list recently and all I could think was this..
I'm right there with you but not just with Steam. I also have a ridiculous backlog of PS3 and 360 games that I have no chance of finishing off before the new consoles are released. This is the gamer's life long struggle. When we are kids with summers off and all the time in the world to play games we don't have money to buy all the games we want. Then we grow up and get a real job so we can finally afford all the games we want but those jobs and all the other responsibilities of adult life mean we don't have time to play the games we want.
One thing I'm looking forward too being a PC gamer and probably a future PS4 owner... Every game in my setup will be stored on a hard drive now. Yes, I will still buy more games than I have time to play but at least I won't have stacks of green DVD and clearish blu-ray cases to shame me every time I sit down to relax.
It appears that Fable 3 is free on Xbox Live for Gold Subscribers..

Sounds like Xbox Live Gold is trying to compete with PS Plus' free games. I have both so good for me. The 3 free Gold games they have announced so far do nothing for me. I already have Halo 3 and Assassin's Creed 2 and I don't have much interest in Fable 3. One upside to this. Apparently Microsoft lets you keep your free games even if you don't keep Gold. With PS Plus you lose them if you don't keep paying for your PS Plus subscription.

Yeah but PS Plus has like 12 free games a month and they are more modern. Unless Microsoft matches this I'd say Sony has the better deal at this point

Just picked up Mirrors Edge for $5 on green man gaming. I have never played it and with the sequel coming out later this year I decided to check it out.

I also just picked up Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition for $7.50. They are having an EA sale right now.

Yeah but the new Mirror's edge isn't a sequel, but rather a reboot, because of course that's what a 5 year old IP needs..
Green Man Gaming is having another EA sale.
http://www.greenmangaming.com/ea-deals/
The highlight for me is the first 2 Mass Effect games for $5 each and Mass Effect 3 for $6. I almost picked them up so I could play the best version of my favorite gaming franchise ever. Then I started to think about all the games that are still in my backlog and decided that buying 3 more games I already own for a different system probably wasn't the best idea.
There are lots of Need for Speed games in the sale too but racing games have never been my thing so I don't know enough about them to make a recommendation.

I just picked up The Witcher and The Witcher 2 on steam for about $10 total. Both games are the enhanced edition. This was part of the weekend sale that ends at 1:00pm eastern.

Another Humble Bundle. A nice thing about this one is that you get Android versions of the games as well as Windows/Mac etc. Sadly though one of the games I got off it that I really wanted isn't working on my phone (Broken Sword.) Still, it's 7 games that you can get for less than $5 right now.
