Both Batman games - Asylum and City - are on sale for cheap. Worth getting?

I don't know why I ask really, its $5 and $7.50 for two games that are highly acclaimed....

Is it just me or does Dishonored look a lot like Bioshock Infinite? Did the same art director do both games? just bought Dishonored and couldn't believe how much it felt like I was playing Bioshock infinite...

Really? That's odd, the flash sales are usually a further discount. It's been at 75% off all along?
It was part of the flash sale on the first day, that is when I got it....so I don't want it to take the spot of a game I want in the vote lol

to pre-answer the same few questions:

definitely worth getting at 50%+ discounts:
sleeping dogs (dlcs are meh)
fallout, fallout NV
batman (both are really AWESOME and "rich" of batman stuff)
bioshock (all)
walking dead
dark souls
civ5
tropico 4
dear esther
to the moon
saints row 3 (get the full package)
gta full bundle (will come around)
bastion
portal 2
trine/trine2
kerbal space program
tomb raider reboot
all assassins creed except 3
mortal kombat (2 hour story movie, more for longtime MK fans)
dishonored
dead space
far cry blood dragon
just cause 2 (crazy gta style game set on corrupt tropical island)
deus ex HR (cool cyberpunk/scifi story, long time DX fans may not like it)

more borderline:

skyrim (need PC version and legendary edition to be good, need lots of mods to be better than average)
borderlands 2 (boring single player, need friends to play co-op)
defiance (shitty but cheap mmo, no sub)
assassins creed 3 (shitty story compared to rest)
deadpool (8 year old humor you may love or hate, game gets boring fast)
dead island
crysis 3 (like 8 hours of gameplay)
darksiders 2 (decent story but highly repetitive gameplay)
hitman (decent but short, really fun if you force yourself to be super stealthy but isnt required and not as stealthy as previous hitmans for last few levels)
far cry 3 (yeah the dlc is way more fun than the base, and doesnt require fc3 so weird)
max payne 3 (unless you really love cutscenes, which this game is 80%)

I was going to get Sleeping Dogs last night, and as soon as I hit "add to cart" my fucking internet crapped out. Pretty irritated.

Don't sweat it. That was a flash sale, so you can just wait for the 8th time it will come back around or wait for it to be part of a daily sale for even cheaper.

I voted for Xcom and if it wins I'll jump on that since I've been wanting to get that. After that we'll see what the dailies are. I do know that the odds are that I'll stay away from indies as it's more likely to be cheaper somewhere else/Humble Bundle. Got a ton of them already.

So far I got 3 trading cards.

How does it play without a controller? I've been too lazy to get around and get one for my PC.
I didn't try it, but I would guess not well. It's a lot of driving and melee fighting, and guns are almost non-existent so there's pretty much no advantage to using a mouse. Why not just plug in your DS3 (or use it wireless like I do, if your PC has bluetooth)?

Anyone played Mars War Logs? The setting looks sweet, but it got trashed pretty hard at 59 on Metacritic. Is it any good? My backlog is big so I don't have time to waste on buggy half-assed games, and I am mainly looking for a good story. So is this a diamond in the rough, or a better off avoiding game?

If you're buying the BL2 season pass be aware the Psycho character DLC is not included

Anyone having weird issues with Farcry Blood dragon crashing when you try to run it for the first time. Run steam in administrator mode, that fixed it for me.

So you guys saying get Bastion for this $7.50 price or should I hold out on it maybe getting even cheaper? Forgot to look yesterday if it was on sale then.
