Let’s review what I ended up buying in December.
On Steam: Not counting Dragon Age, which I purchased before the sale started, I ended up with: Borderlands, Bioshock, Jade Empire, Mass Effect, Counter-Strike, Titan Quest, and The Witcher.
On Good Old Games: Myst, Riven, and Jagged Alliance 1 and 2.
A few more sales like this, and I’m gonna be broke.
To be fair, I probably only ended up spending about $70, at least half of which was just for Borderlands. But as I read accounts from people who one-clicked their way through $300 worth of games because “the deals were so good”, there is a sad recognition.
At least, unlike board games, they don’t fill up a closet.
Adam: very, very true!
Wait, The Witcher? This Witcher? Admittedly, I thought it was better than it got reviewed here, sex-cards aside, but still.
Eh, I was mostly just baiting the people who were giving Corvus grief for saying anything before finishing the game.
I haven’t actually played the game enough yet, but so far it hasn’t been hateful. But I’m still in the first act. If it turns creepy, you’ll hear about it here.
(I thought my “take that” made it clear that I hadn’t actually reviewed the game or, really, read anything at all about it).
