It was a great time for game sales last month, but October is off to a lackluster start. Hopefully we can look forward to some spooky Halloween sales in a few weeks, but for now, we’ll have to make due with the meager offerings we have at the moment.
Impulsedriven.com has a surprisingly small array of titles on sale this week, but Stardock’s Demigod is going for a mere $5.95. Gamersgate.com has numerous items discounted right now, including Kalypso’s popular adventure series Broken Sword. After a month of magnificent sales, Direct2drive.com is down to humble handful of sales. It’s slim pickings there unless you always meant to tryDarkfall Online.
Gamestop.com is selliing Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Platinum for half off, which brings it down to fifteen dollars. This bundle has the game, plus two expansions Wild and Soaked. Presumably a good deal for fans of this sub-genre.
Gog.com isn’t having a sale this week, but they are holding a daily contest where you can win every game they sell. If you still believe these people after the deceptive publicity stunt they pulled last month, then you should have a look at the contest.
Games for Windows Live is selling Red Faction Guerrilla for $9.99 until Wednesday evening, which is half off the price of a pretty good game.
Lastly, over at Steampowered.com, they’re promoting the new Left 4 Dead DLC with a sale on both L4D games. You can buy either of them for $6.79, or a bundle of both for $10.19. If you haven’t gotten into this franchise, you are strongly encouraged to grab this bundle.
