Finally! Mass Effect 2 for $24! That's what I'm talkin' about!

Sure .. if you're in the US maybe.
Here in Europe , Steam lists the price as 29,99€ ( $37,10 USD ) and yes , that is 40 % off .. the standard price is 49,99€

Which is why I NEVER buy games from Steam unless the games are on some super sale like 80% - 100% off.

Steam is fucking expensive outside of the US.

I offer a tip for everyone : Do what I do and use http://www.gamestracker.com/ to find the best price in your area.

Standard US price for ME2 is listed on Gamestracker as $26.44 for the US and it's €18.54 in continental Europe.

18.54€ compared to the standard Steam price of 49,99€ is 62% off - Better than Steams current 40% off.
They can take their "sale" and stick it somewhere unpleasant - Other stores are much cheaper even when they are not on sale.

When they are on sale elsewhere , it's even cheaper.
I picked up Dragon Age on a holiday offer last Christmas for next to nothing.

It pays to shop around.

Very cheap! The stuff is mostly coming all the way from Hong Kong but it's a site you can trust! I always order my games there. New AvP for 18 euros. Alpha Protocol, 18 euros. Dragon Age: Awakenings, 16 euros.

It's most often 50% cheaper than the normal price. Downside? Average ETA of 5 days.




Playing: Skyrim, World of Warcraft. Future: Dead Space 3.
