Just thought some of you might be interested in this sale. I'm not sure how long it will last.

$69.95 for all Bethesda and id Software games, which isn't too shabby considering you get Fallout 3 Game of the Year edition with the bundle.

That's amazing! I don't have 70 dollars, but amazing price! But why don't they have Quake Wars, the Quake online shooter? I used to have that on PS3. Maybe it isn't available on PC, or on Steam at least...

@Cormorant5,

ET:QW was for PC initially, then id ported it to PS3 and Xbox. I have it for PC and love it .

Now that is a steal. I would get it if I really wanted those games lol .

Then I wonder why QW isn't in that pack. Maybe it's not on Steam...

As far as I know, id didn't actually play any part in the development of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars (apart from the id Tech 4 engine).

as soon as I saw the offer I took it. I already own oblivion, but shivering isles expansion still costs £14 from Game, while Oblivion + 9 DLC's costed less than £7 on steam. So now I have an Oblivion CD for sale, and am hoping i'll be able to use my savegame with the steam copy.

yeah this seems awesome, but then I realized I've already played almost all these games a buttload.

Awesome offer, if I didn't already have all those games then I'd be all over it . We should have a sticky thread in geek culture, where people can announce all those Steam deals that I miss. I managed to get GTA4 for like £4 just before the offer ran out, my brother wasn't quick enough (haha!).

I'm so happy right now. After several minutes of economic debating, Shadowtroid and I decided to spend what little money we have on Oblivion. The price was so low, we couldn't let down the offer. Now both our Steam accounts have the fantasy version of Fallout 3, and we got the digital deluxe, so we have 9 dlc!

I bought Fallout 3 GOTY about 4 days ago

Never fails. Almost any time I buy anything on steam, it is part of some sort of sale after no more than two weeks But hey, I've probably gotten back more from previous sales anyways, so it doesn't bother me much.

I got Fallout 3 a LONG time ago, for PS3. I also have it for PC, not for Steam, because I failed back then, but I usually play the PS3 one, because my laptop is not made for top of the notch gamin like FO3. I got all the DLC for PS3, no from the game of the year, which stinks.

By the way, to the one who, over Steam, said Oblivion was bad, EAT IT. 1 day, 4 hours. Still love it. Although it isn't fair I pretty much adore any role playing game, especially ones where you don't have to be human or an elf. I'm a cat!

Anyways, I'd buy it if I thought I'd actually play any of the games other than Oblivion, which I already own. It's an awesome deal though.

(Note how Fallout 3: GOTY is still £5 cheaper on Amazon, even with £15 knocked off on Steam)


I'd love to see things from your point of view but I can't get my head that far up my bum.

Fallout 3 is ridiculously overpriced without that sale, so if you want to buy it you probably should do it today.

I want to get Morrowind one of these days too.
