#8 weekly sales thread (wednesday edition) (again) - grue - 06-09-2016

This thread is meant for the sharing of sweet, tasty cheap stuff. Keep the more in-depth games discussion to the "What Are You Playing This Month" thread. I don't want the threads to become redundant, and this weekly sales thing will only continue if you guys show any interest in it - if not, I'll just can it.

Anyway, if you know something, share it itt.

The threads are weekly because the steam sales are weekly.

Possible sources of items on sale:

http://store.steampowered.com/
https://www.gog.com/
http://www.greenmangaming.com/
https://www.humblebundle.com

My picks:

Bunch of bundles at GoG, great ones at that. The ones that caught my eye are the 80% off on XCOM classic games (does not include xcom 2) and the bundle on Anno games (great strategy games).


rough week this one

are the classic xcom games still good? ive never played one but it seems like something id like but ive only ever seen the rebooted games

i understand the old ones are beloved, but are they actually good here and now in 2016?

You can get System Shock 2 for free! from GOG if you hurry

I want to say the first XCOM is still cool but I didn't get around to finishing the game so I guess it's not really. I did a game with Explosm members as squadmates a long time ago, I hope my save file is still around

Still enthralling enough for me to watch a whole Let's Play of it

Just beat Witcher 3, probably can't say anything new about it that others haven't already said, but damn what an amazing game. Ready to start blood and wine.
