Hi, I'm wondering how to tell when a game comes off sale? At the moment, I.G.I. 2 is on sale, but I would like to know how to tell when the sale finishes. If it is impossible to tell, does anyone know when that specific game finishes?

Thanks,
The Nerdy Plane

It's on sale for the week...the exact time is listed to the right here (scroll down just a bit, and the expiration will appear on the right of the page)

In my case, usually ten minutes before I plan to buy it. :P

Other direction ain't much better. Mine go into sale 10 min after I descided to buy them because I no longer want to wait for them getting into the sale. ;)

That has actually happened to me so I don't joke about that.

The countdown also shows at the end of the page title if you haven't scrolled down. It is in the same font as the title, so it may be easy to miss. :)

While not exactly 10 min it did indeed happend with Mount and Blade.

In an act of defiance I got the napoleonic wars dlc I never cared for in a sale.

Still not that interested in napoleonic wars :P

You're right of course....I guess my eye always glances over to the right when checking. Suppose that's why I seem to always end up having to check walkthroughs while playing adventure games, ;-)

Aside from the countdown on promo pages themselves, there is almost always a news post associated with a given promo, and the date and time when the promo is supposed to end generally appears there (and in the connected forum comment thread). Look on the left side of the front page, just below the game/promo tiles (you'll have to scroll down a bit). :)
