If anyone finds Battlefield 3 PS3 for 30 or less euros, please let me know.

Big Fish Games has an any game for $2.99 sale (new customers only) . You have to enter a coupon code (which they splash in your face when you go to the site NEW299).

Puzzle Quest 2 for 2.99 sounds good to me. Does BFG do DRM and, if so, which kind?

---------update-------
don't know about the DRM but the version they have on BFG can't be patched. There have been two patches applied to the steam version which had numerous bug fixes
Doesn't seem like such a good deal anymore
----------------------

I think they have the games 4.99 If you're already a customer. Different code. NEW50

BFG's DRM is of rather annoying variety. You have to install through their manager, the games are modified, cannot be backup up or moved from one machine to another, counts installations, etc. I don't think you need to be online to start game though.

Back to the main topic, Cargo is 66% off on Steam. Not quite sure what this game is about but the video looks, well, interesting.

SimonG: It was the same with GG. Stuff like this happens quite often during promos or sales. It could be licencing issues. Maybe Valve keeps all 7.50 on the one package but only half of the price of the other deals. Well, not our problem ;-).
Just curious: do you get the GTA classics and GTA complete bundle offers? I'm from Germany, and without using a proxy, steam does not show these two at all (no notification about the GTA weekend deal in the top right corner either, just the alice deal). Just tried TOR, got a server in Amsterdam, and saw GTA complete for 9,99 euro - not 7,50. Now I'm confused :D
Gamersgate does show the offer, though...

Roberttitus: The US version of Onlive has a Get Your First Game for $1 sale going on.

The only games that aren't eligible are preorders. So that means that even games that are normally $50+ (such as the new Dues Ex game) are only $1.
I got Deus Ex Human Revoultion. ^^

It has a small amount of lag but its perfectly playable and getting it for $1 is great !

I can't see the first two GTA games on any package either.

I guess Rockstar hates Mexico.

Don't drink the Kool-aid, Orcishgamer. Stick to scotch.

It isn't any worse than Steam.

If you guys want, gift me the blue coins and I'll buy GTA Complete for you.

I was thinking about trying the Onlive $1 sale but had to say no. They do not accept paypal and no way to remove credit card without deleting account.

Yeah, GTA isn't visible with a German IP. I think it's because one of the GTA IIIs is banned. GG for me is "broken" anyway, as I see everything in $$ (quite good actually). Or they jsut said f*ck it, even banned games get displayed there for me.

If you want to buy on a foreign steam account, you need to use those "paysafecards" otherwise steam will check the nationality of your bank account/credit card and decline the purchase.

Aren't those two freeware anyway?

And I am sorry to say, that due to my european heritage, I am not able to make a funny borderline racist comment on Mexicans. Now, if you were Dutch or Belgian...

I'm not sure if this still works, but I live in a US territory and still use my Korean credit card for purchases.
Last month or so, I tried to buy the Total War set on Steam and ended up opening a ticket because the system wasn't letting me pay with a Korean card. I tried changing just the state and country to my current residence, with address line 1 & 2 set to my Korean address, and payment went through. I don't think it's even disallowed, either, 'cause I told the Steam support person and he told me to just get in contact if I have further trouble.

Hope it works for whoever else could use this info.

Huh? It never worked for me ... But this is great news, have to try it out on occasion.
