XCOM: Enemy Unknown was, despite all of the whinging and bitching of old-school X-COM devotees, the best game of 2012.
I wish to play its expansion!
However, fuck those guys! $30? Fuck those guys!
So this is the thread where if you happen to notice that it's on sale on Steam, you let me know, okay? Give back to the man who has given you so much!

It's currently on sale for 14.99 here...

And they have two active codes running right now...
GMG25-0YUM5-VKMVU for 25% off
GMG20-ZB5D1-93X49 for 20% off
Not sure if either of the coupons will stack with the sale price but you never know.

Oh.
Well, I'm sorry I missed that, then.
Please keep me informed if you see similar sales in the future!

I should have specified, I only need notifications of sales
that are currently occurring.
Christ, Retro.

I follow cheapassgamer on twitter. They tweet out every damn video game sale on the internet. If I see it again I'll pass it on.

It's on sale for 19.99 on Amazon for the rest of this month.
It activates through Steam.
20 still seems high though.

Yep, I'm gonna wait for $15 or less. That's smart shopping!

You can get the console version for 30 and that version includes the original game AND the expansion. Then on PC they want 30 for JUST the expansion? Crazy talk.

Did you ever get this? Steam version is on sale at amazon until the 31st.

I bought it for Pinback when it was $16 on Game Rocket. Don't believe he has played it yet though.

With the deep, deep discounts being offered at Steam for their summer sale and on the strength of Pinback's prior reviews, I picked up both XCOM: Enemy Unknown and XCOM: Enemy Within. There was an additional discount being offered Friday and I snatched 'em up for like $10.
Now, to play and enjoy.

Well, to play anyway.
Although the good news is that if you like them even a little, we can recommend better versions of those games, Gerrit!
