Hey! Steam holiday sale! as usual, fucking awesome sales. Any one get anything yet? They are doing that daily sale thing again too. I bought Just Cause 2, Aliens vs. Predator (2010), and Bully. Past 2 days had decent sales as well, but I only got the Oddboxx which I'm super excited about!

I also bought 2 of the Indie packs, Beat Pack and 2D Pack.

I have so many games now. Wish I had more time to play them. But I was planning on playing most of these eventually anyway. so worth it.

I just bought this package http://store.steampowered.com/sub/2327/

It has nothing to do with the holiday sale..... but I have always wanted to play Darkstar One. It's very similar to a game called Freelancer, which I enjoyed playing very much. Surprisingly the bundle for it and two other games is cheaper than buying the game outright. At 2.50 you can't go wrong!

This game also reminds me of something called X beyond the frontier which my brother loves, I might just have to get this for him.

I liked it when I played it on the PS2.

Yeah I caved in and picked that up along with Assassin's Creed 2. I never played the first one but I heard you don't really need to to play the second so I hope I'm not missing out. Now I need to buy a good PC controller. I think I have a PS2-USB cable device that has served me well in the past, I just need to find it somewhere in my house. Otherwise I think I'll get an XBox 360 controller.

Alpha Protocol is $7.50! Go buy it.

Yeah I managed to pick this one up, which is about all I had set aside for games right now. They seemed to have a lot of other sales around too, like Fallout NV I believe.

Also just hooked him up with another g8 game StarScape one of the best indie game I've played around 2001 and I got it for me too because I don't feel like finding the disc.

Yeah, The Witcher is good.

Was kind of disappointed that today was just repeats of top selling games from the last couple of days, but it does give me a second chance to reconsider Darksiders, the Fear Complete Pack and Assassin's Creed 2. Not entirely sure what to pick up.
