Oh Valve, you cunning people. You’ve perfected the knack of making me want games I didn’t really want before by pricing them so low I can’t afford not to buy them! Ok, that’s a slight exaggeration, but still, Saint’s Row 2, THQ’s GTA clone, which picks up the wacky-slack left by the grit of GTA IV, is only £3.75 ($7.50) on Steam today! There have been THQ deals all this week (which you’ve now missed), but there’s another (unknown) one tomorrow. While I’m going on about Steam deals, there’s also a deal on the complete Civilisation IV collection, knocking it down to £12.49 (If anyone knows the US $, can they post it in the comments) until Friday. Ok, PSA over, now back to your scheduled programming.

I greatly enjoyed Saints Row 2 on the PS3. If you like over-the-top GTA-like gang-infused gameplay this is a great one to get.
Can't vouch for its performance on a PC, though.
It has its problems, but overall, it is a solid game. There are a lot of tweaking guides to get it performing well. I finished the main story and the hidden Jules quest, along with most of the side missions and had a blast. Every now and then I still go back to it just to roll around and have fun. I have not done that with an open world game since GTA Vice City.
The Civilization 4 complete package is $19.99 on Steam til tomorrow, and Dawn of War 2 is going for 19.99 until the end of the weekend. Not sure what tomorrow's deal is, but I can't afford anything else.
