A fast question since i missed Cod MW3 sale,
There is a site which show:

EU Version (English, German, Italian, Spanish, French) 36$
RU Version (English, Russian) 20$

What is the difference here since i want the english version(and both has it)?

Region restricted maybe? Don't think they censored anything like L4d2.

Thanks, but i guess it will be your region depends on your ip, as it is with Xbox live(i own it), but i want for PC ..

is there any one else could confirm what is the difference?

EDIT , i noticed that the options there was an extra to choice, there is like a normal copy which was listed at 20$ too ...
What to do ?!

I wish Steam would quit these flash sales and just do full day sales on everything.

Anyways, I bought LA Noire 2 days ago when it was on for $9.99, now its 4.99.

Only $5, but annoying. I had no idea it would go lower, and if I chanced it, I may have missed out completely.


Picked up the AOE Online and AOE 3 Bundles to play on my laptop some.

Didn't read the OP, especially the first line I see.

It's more than $20 but it's on sale for $29.99 at Amazon. Same price that Steam had it on day 1. Activates on Steam.

The RU version is cheaper simply because it's Russian. Russia has the cheapest digital goods out of any other region, which is why you're seeing it offered cheaper here. Unfortunately the RU region is also pretty locked down, meaning you'll have to use a Russian VPN or proxy to activate the game on your Steam account.

The EU version is actually region-free and can be activated normally, IIRC. So it's simply a matter of if you want to save a few bucks for something that takes a little more effort.

What country do you live in?

Thanks - that's odd - they say Rebellion includes all of Trinity's "features," but I don't think it actually includes the Trinity game, since it's a standalone expansion. Either way, I purchased Trinity for $5 - not ready to take a $30 plunge on gameplay I haven't tried.

It's not just an expansion, it includes everything in Trinity - it's just a re-write, plus the new content (third expansion).

Quit bitching because you didn't follow rule #1. It's your own fault!

Hot Pursuit isnt much of a game, and I would think all the people who really wanted it, got it a while back.
Weird thats what people voted for.

Am hoping people vote for Anno 2070 cuz EA murdered SimCity a long time ago, and SC4 is old as hell anyway.

I was hoping for Driver San Francisco to win.

I did vote for SimCity 4, but that's because Anno already had the exact same sale.

Might as well enjoy SC4, with the way SC5 is coming along with always on DRM and having other players for neighbors now, I know myself and many others aren't even going to bother with it.

I already got SC4 on disc back when it was new. Thats how I learned to NOT buy anything previously good, swallowed up by EA.

As an FYI, you will only have neighbors if you want neighbors.
You can happily play in your own region and not invite others to play with you (and avoid any influence of them.)

Man, is it July 22 yet?

I have given up hope that the games I want are going to be included in a daily deal or flash sale, but I also don't want to break rule #1.

Is there a visual overhaul mod or anything for Thief: Deadly Shadows? I heard good things about the series, but I am a little superficial these days when it comes to games.
