StingingVelvet: Not exclusive to video games either, I love how every music album I buy is usually cheaper on CD than as a download on amazon.com. Same thing with movies and TV shows, from what I have seen.
Buying music digitally here is actually slightly cheaper than retail. But then again, it's still cheaper to buy the import versions.... Which tend to be stocked alongside the domestic versions in HMV, etc.

Anyhow, GamersGate has another Simulator week running by the looks of it. The best of the bunch being Euro Truck Sim and Snowcat Simulator. Woodcutter simulator and Mining and Tunneling Simulator would also be good if it wasn't for the bugs with the physics engines used in both and the fact that they still haven't been patched.

Amongst the latest additions, Evochron Mercenaries seems to be the only game worth looking into. Still a bit steep at that price though.
Another free game from Sandlot is Cake Mania 2.

Netkar Pro is on sale for € 14.90 to celebrate the 1.3 beta version.

If you love racing simulations you can't miss this offer

Luisfius: Even at that pricepoint, it would be cheaper for me to get a physical copy of Civ V in a game store. Same reason why I did not get Civ V in the Christmas sale.

Seriously, it costs the equivalent of 30 dollars in the game shop.

carnival73: Digi sellers need to keep in mind that when someone chooses them over old-fashioned hard copy, that person is sacrificing a tangeable backup which is potentially collectible, offers resale value and REFUNDABLE.

Considering this Digi sellers shouldn't be attempting to compete so close to retail price.

Let alone charging more than a retailer.
No refunding or reselling Civ V due to it being a Steamworks title, and each key having to be linked to a particular Steam account.

Strangely, the key that came in my Civ V copy did not work when I tried to add it to steam with the "activate a product" option, only through the Civ V installer.
Still, kind of silly that the discounted price at D2D is higher than the physical one undiscounted for once.
GamersGate loyality offer (lasts a week):

Trine - 50% - 80% off depending your membership status.

There's also plenty of simulators on offer this week as well, from crane and digger simulators to Bungee Jumping and Agricultural Simulators, each 60% off.

That, and just so I don't end up misplacing or plain losing access to the downloaded program.
