If you just want "plain" BF3, you can get it for $5 in the Humble Bundle:

What do you guys think of Need for Speed: The Run? I like the idea of the cross-country game, and it says it's beautiful, but got terrible reviews, 59 metacritic.

Also, Gamestop has a sale on for Dragon Age ultimate for $5.99.

That's a steal.

I picked up the bf3 Ultimate Shortcut bundle for $20. Probably wont get premium since bf4 is coming out in 2 months. October 29th. I just wanted to shoot face and not have to wait on unlocks.

Amazing how they still milk the 20 or more Sims expansions. I've bought lots of them but getting miffed that they still make you buy each one separately.

Some good deals but nothing I'm looking for currently.

Anyone who plays BF3 I would recommend the co-op weapon bundle if you're interested in the weapons though. It's like $2 instead of a few hours repeating the same missions over and over, worth it imo.

Dragon Age 2 for $7.99.

Thanks OP.

You can get premium for 15$ now...20$ with bf3 as part of this deal. I am a HUGE BF3 fan so i am biased, but in my opinion, premium is, by far, the best DLC deal ever. All the additional maps, game modes, vehicles, weapons, guides, etc, etc. it's an insane deal. I was hesitant when i first got it but its paid off in spades. Compare to the COD season pass, of which im a member, and its mainly just more maps....and those dont compare to BF3 maps, let alone the zillions of extras. Get premium.

I will assume that not a whole lot of people bought all the exansions to BF3 so here is my question, can you expect to find large (48+) servers filled for online games playing the newest maps? I have two of the expansions, one is Kirkland and the other is the vehicle one which I never bought and don't know how I got but when I play online, seems like most servers are running the original maps. If true, then the new maps wouldn't be such an advantage unless you want to play on servers of 16 people.
