Finally the titles and percentages are starting to look tempting enough. My first purchase is Sins of Solar Empire: Rebellion, Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes and Deux Ex: Human Revolution might well be the next ones.

Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes is a great game.  You will like it!

All three of those are great titles, Tinkershuffle!  You've got loads of good gaming to look forward to! 8)

Are there any Tropico enthusiasts out there?  Tropico 4 is a whopping 80% off.  Kinda tempted. Letting loose my inner Fidel has a certain appeal to it.  Still, not a game I ever really see mentioned in this neighborhood --

I bought it a long time ago on sale and thought it was ok.... the music and graphics are good, however was a little too easy to advance and I got bored with it.  Never tried any of the DLC.

It's a nice game for something a bit different.  Definitely kinda fun being a banana republic dictator persona but the meat of the game is building up your island nation whilst keeping most people happy, and doing it on a budget.  I'd suggest it for a city builder with high production values and some good humor.

Snagged Rising Sun yesterday. Fallen Enchantress : Legendary Heroes, Gunpoint and Dark Souls are today's haul.

Great Ajax

Dark Souls for $7.50 is a no brainer.  Playing this game is an unique experience.

Assassin's Creed III? Anyone like?

For the first time in...well...ever, I have yet to buy anything in the Steam Summer Sale! Will I hold out until the end? Will I cave in and buy something? Tune in next post, same Grogheads time, same Grogheads channel!

Added Deux Ex Human Revolution for $2.99 I have the whole series now.

Nobody is going old school and pick up system shock 2 for $2.49 ....I now it's old and the graphics aren't the greatest but it a nice FPS/RPG .

I thought about picking up SS2.. never having played it.  :o 

But dayum!  I'm so overloaded with new stuff!  I'll never get around to giving it a proper playthrough, and being so old it'll never get to the top of my list.

On the other hand, the new Deus Ex is a great game despite not being 'open'.  The stealthy-action stuff is fun.

I'm now loaded up with stealthy action games Thief series, deux ex series, and chronicles of riddick games.

If the graphics don't get in your way[there are mods to somewhat improve it] your missing a classic in SS2. Wasn't that series the first FPS/RPG games?

Stunningly, I have not purchased anything from these summer sales, I have barely even looked.  Not sure why, just on overload I guess.....did pick up Steel Beasts, but that was not a summer sale item.  We'll see if I can make it to the end too...
