the bad thing about these crazy under ten bucks sales is it really focuses my attention on how out of control my impulsive game buying habits have been in the past. I've bought lots of these titles "half price" at 20-30.00 and thought I was getting a deal. Some I even bought full price. I never really even played them, and here they are practically for pennies, with all their expansions/DLC to boot. And other sites have to compete, so theyre all running killer deals too on some of this stuff as well (namely D2D).
King Arthur's a prime example: over the last few days I could have picked up that whole enchilada (hey, im in So Cali) for like 5 bucks… *facepalm**
Untold money I could have saved. It's a valuable lesson, and it's definitely sinking in now. Play the backlog, buy the games when they hit the lower end of the bargain bin. Oh well, I guess I could be out blowing my money on destructive things like women, drugs and booze or something. Wouldnt that be a shame. Getting better about it tho, for example I havent bought Alice:Madness Returns or Shogun TW2, two games that are totally beckoning to me at the moment and have went on "sale" for like 30.00 recently..
