EA had Mirror's Edge for £3 on the first day. But yeah.

And then they pulled it.  What the heck?  I (stupidly) didn't buy it and now its back to $20 US.  So now I have to wait till another random deal or until it goes down to something like $10.  Either way...why lower it down for only 1 day...?

because it was a daily deal, and that's right, you have to wait for another random deal :P but it was the 3rd time it was $4.99, they had it a few weeks ago on Steam, and earlier on Direct2Drive for the same price.

I'm glad I waited to see what the daily deals will be and didn't start buying from the first day. So far I bought: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, Defense Grid: The Awakening, Cogs, and Battlefield 2: Complete Collection.

I don't like these deals. :(

as expected, EA games are showing up in the daily deals, and today there's even an Activision one:

Torchlight for $4.99 !!!

Dragon Age: Origins for $37.49, and the digital deluxe edition for $49

Prototype for $19.99

Universe at War: Earth Assault for $4.99 (SEGA's really pushing this one, it's like the eleventh time they're selling it for $4.99 haha)

LUMINES Base + Advanced pack for $2.99

Star Wars Premier Pack for $24.99 (including Battlefront 2, Galaxies, KOTOR and the Jedi Knight collection)

Or maybe I'll just get Battlefront 2, loved that for PS2.

Me too. Do people still play the online? If so I'm definitely buying it.

I hate when the game I just bought is even cheaper than before :(

Look the bright side, it seems that the offer worked for them and now they want to try volumen-based pricing instead of the traditional  high-pricing system.

 

Steam has opened the door and there is a lot of light for the PC Gaming, as long as the prices are low, i think it will have a chance agains the console wars.

The eidos collection deal seems to be the best one out of all of them.
