Additionally, all of yesterday’s deals are still in effect for another 24 hours. The flash sales turn over every eight hours, as does the community vote.
Our Take
If you somehow missed out on Portal 2 when it came out, it’s absolutely worth the $5 investment. Another good use of a Lincoln is Don’t Starve, which comes from versatile Canadian studio Klei (Shank, Mark of the Ninja).
Be sure to also check out the first batch of flash sales, as Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is also just a hair over $5. If RPGs are more your style, you can put that same $5 to The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind instead.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
