GTA4 is REALLY tempting me.

Mmm, i havent bought games since last year, i only found FPS and freakies RPG, what about the rest of generes ?

Mmm, that´s why i think the PC Plataform is not enough :S

May be that will change in the future, but today it is quite boring to find one FPS after another. . .

there were tons of Steam deals from other genres: simulation, racing, adventure, action-adventure, etc... Why not buy Mirror's Edge when it was like $4 for example?

to me the daily deals weren't that awesome, I owned many of the games on sale and/or wasn't interested in the others.

time to check what else I want though, and I'm thinking about buying everything on weekend deals or in the holiday sale next year, it's so damn cheap.
