Listed below are some games where are supposed to be very good, at very good prices.

SEGA Collection: store.steampowered.com/sub/15548/?snr=1_4_4__spd
Can buy as a pack or individually. Those Total War ShoGun games are supposed to be very good (I own TWS2, but it's too complex for little old moi).

Penumbra Collection: store.steampowered.com/sub/1451/?snr=1_4_4__233

Beyond Good And Evil (non-HD): store.steampowered.com/app/15130/?snr=1_6_4__421
I think the HD version was XBLA exclusive, but there again you'd be playing it on PC, so it probably looks better than the old vanilla version on Xbox/360 (whichever console it originally came-out for).

BTTF: store.steampowered.com/app/31290/?snr=1_4_4__sfs
All 5 eps together for under a fiver.... tempted, not going to lie. But point and click aren't really my thing. Still... under a fiver! Might end-up biting on this, finally, and start the waiting game all over again for when The Walking Dead is released all together for under a fiver.

Some nice deals, but that fucking gif had me lmfao when it loaded

Steam Sales/Cheap-Ass Karl: Hnnnnng! Mirror's Edge for £6.49!

Logical Karl: No! You bought it for 360 in a '4 for £20' deal, didn't like the control scheme at all, sold on ebay probably for about what you paid for it (£5 as one of the four games in the deal).

Steam Sales/Cheap-Ass Karl: But, but, the PC has much prettier graphics, framerate, and who knows maybe it controls better with keyboard and mouse!

Logical Karl: Why would you buy something if you've already had it in the past and never played it?

Steam Sales/Cheap-Ass Karl: It's cheap! If I don't get it now it will shoot back up to £14 and I will have missed out.

Logical Karl: You are hopeless. Why not look over here... we have a lovely Binary Domain with 40% off in the sale. You were actually good with Binary Domain, both in the fact that it was a shooting game you could play without dying every 5 seconds, and that you didn't rush-out and get it on 360. Why don't we purchase the superior PC version with it's exclusive multiplayer mode, free DLC levels which ya would have had to pay MS Points on the 360. It's not a brand-new release, so any issues with mouse acceleration have been patched out, and hell even if you don't like the keyboard and mouse controls you have the option of sticking your 360 controller into your PC and playing binary domain the way you are used to playing it already from when you rented the 360 version from BlockBusters... twice because you loved the game that much.

Steam Sales/Cheap-Ass Karl: I dunno, logical me, even it's been knocked off from it's full retail price of £29.99 to 40% off which is £17.99, I still think that's too pricey.

Logical Karl: Bitch I will fucking cut you! You used to rush-out and buy £40-45 Xbox360 games on release date. Remember BulletStorm, motherfucker? £40 wasted, you later re-bought for £3.45 during a Steam Winter Sale. Let's be good and start a trend here and now, where you get the games you want on PC for cheaper, thus making them your only copy of the game instead of re-buying later.

Steam Sales/Cheap-Ass Karl: Okay, Okay, no need to be pushy.... Gawwwd!
