Crayon Physics Deluxe costs $X! Where X is your imagination.

Crayon Physics Deluxe is having one of those “pay me whatever” sales.  Pay any amount (.01 or $100 million), and you get the game.

It retails for $20 normally (and on steam).  I paid $20 at launch and, while I haven’t beaten it, think it’s a blast to play around with.

If you have a tablet (PC or pad), then this is a must.  Works well with a mouse, too.

To avoid him losing money on this sale, you should probably pay at least $2. I’d recommend $5. I can’t imagine feeling ripped off at $5, even if you find you don’t like the game.  And hell, there’s a demo. Give it a try!

Only thing I’d say: back up your saved games to a shared folder.  I keep loading this game on people’s computers to show it off, and each time I have to start at level 1.

At least watch the video on the main page. Or this one:

Xbox Deal of the Week: Braid

braid_xbox_01

Perhaps due to Steam’s recent success (as noted in Boramis’ post), Microsoft is also implementing a weekly sale.  And they kick it off well.

Braid is going for the more classic 800 point price point.  This game was easily worth the initial $15, so $10 is a steal.  Pick up one of the best games of last year (next to Left 4 Dead as Game of the Year), and probably one of the best all time (pun intended).  Soon to be available on PC as well.

Left 4 Dead Sale extended.

I intended to post about this earlier this weekend, but ended up just telling specific people.  Now that it’s extended, I guess it’s time for an overall announcement.

Left 4 Dead is one of the best multiplayer games.  It is fun with any number of players, from 2-8.  The PC version will have Mod support coming this Spring/Summer and is currently on sale for $25.

Quick Review

Since this game will probably not drop below $20 for at least a couple years, this is about as cheap as you would ever be able to get it.  If you intend to own a PC capable of playing this game in the next 1-2 years (which, should be everyone assuming a 4 year turnaround on computers running an OS that isn’t linux), then you have little reason not to pick this up.

Unless you hate fun.  Or don’t have $25.

go buy: Audiosurf – $5

The basics: you drive around a track collecting gems into columns or rows of 3, and then scoring.  The cool aspect?  These tracks are dynamically created visualizations of any song you want.

Rough two-player co-op (one person uses mouse to control, one uses keyboard) also available.

Certainly worth it as the price of a McD’s meal.

Available through Steam.  Sale ends sometime today.  Possibly with the Heavy Update/Free TF2 weekend at 3pm CST.

It is Orange Box for the same price ($30) as Portal, TF2, or other parts are individually. If you were contemplating picking up just TF2 for the PC, now is the time to get it, and get the other games for free.
