Alright so most of these are probably going to just be Steam weekend deals, but occasionally there might be something else thrown in there. Personally, I think paying retail for a game is a ludicrous waste of money. I think the last time I spent more than $30 on a game was when Left 4 Dead 2 came out, and even then I only paid $33, and that was on release day. So, I'm dedicating this thread to helping the internet save a little (a lot) of money that would otherwise be essentially wasted. If you can manage to hold off your anticipation for a games release and manage to overcome the temptation of pre-order bonuses (Unless the bonus itself saving money on your purchase a la L4D2), then here there is great bounty awaiting you. I'd put in some tips on how to save money on games, but I'm late late late for a very important date, so I'll leave that up to someone else for now.

I'll just start this off with a deal going on right now, Just Cause 2 (And it's expansions) is 50% off until Sunday. If you ever thought about getting this game, now is your chance. Unless you want to wait for the inevitable Christmas deal, that is. Even so it's likely to still only be 50% off.

Well, since we now have a topic dedicated to game deals, I think it's time I introduce Cheap Ass Gamer, a website dedicated to this cause. I'm glad you made this topic because it reminded me that I really need to move my Google Reader subscription to to that website to a more noticeable place.

So there's an id and Bethesda sale going on all weekend. Probably worth keeping an eye on.

Garry's Mod is $5, and is now on Mac. If you don't have it, get it. Recent updates have fixed any and all qualms I've had with it.

This is really tempting, but I'm doubting that my desktop will be able to handle it smoothly. Plus, I'd like to play with my 360s controller and, if this game doesn't have any (good) options for it and uses point and click controls, that's not going to be very possible.

I already have one of those. My problem is with whether the game will allow me to actually use it and, if it will, whether or not I'll be allowed to change the controls if they're uncomfortable or be forced to use the keyboard controls with my controller via Xpadder. I wouldn't be so worried about doing the latter if not for the fact that most PC games tend to use a mouse, which is difficult to emulate efficiently with my controller. Plus, if the game's like Oblivion, the default 360 controls may be auto-enabled the second it detects a controller, causing gameplay to be nearly impossible since my controller would then have two sets of controls that are interfering with eachother.
