I hate that YOU GOTTA GET IT NOW NOW NOW idea/feeling.

I would feel kind of retarded to spend $5 now, only to see it go on sale again twice before I get around to buying a better graphics card/new computer.

Saying shit like "IT'S ONLY FIIIIIIIIIIIVE DOLLAAAARRRS!" is actually less likely to get me to buy it. I want to buy games because they're GOOD, not because they're CHEAP - this is just a math question to see how long  I might be able to hang on to my pennies.

Oh never mind, I just bought the fucking thing anyway. Enough with making a big deal over it.

Thank fuck, I was about to pop a fucking brain vessel if you were seriously arguing that $5 for a game you knew you were going to play was a big deal.

No, but it was stupid to pop a brain vessel at my daring to ask the question in the first damn place. It took all of 10 seconds to type it and hit 'post', so I dunno... *I* sure as hell didn't consider that a 'big deal'.

All those "IT'S JUST FIVE DOLLARS" adds up. Trust me.

The implication that I buy a game that I only know from Stush's brilliant LP on the basis of "it's cheap" bugs me.

Fortunately, there's a demo, so we're good.

It's true. I could spend a million dollars at dealextreme.com and then wonder what happened.

That's why I eventually skipped it, yeah.  The game itself is easily worth a Lincoln, but it's not one I'm so hot to play that I'm going to put another drop in my river of back debt.

I wonder how many copies of Mount and Blade my LP has sold. I should get them to put it on the website.

I guess Microsoft has their own PC game download service these days.

Anyway, Batman Arkham Asylum is like $13 on it until Monday.

Here's the list

Personally, there's nothing availible that I'd want to jump on and I don't have that much disposable income anyway.

Use coupon code PAXEAST842 at eastore.com for $20 off a $40 purchase.  (To my surprise and delight, $39.95 counts as $40 and they do not dick you into buying an extra thing.  AND free shipping if you prefer a physical copy.)

Dragon Age expansion for half price?  Yes please.

What's the time limit on that coupon code?

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.
