I wouldn't recommend the THPSHD game. I got it at launch for $9, and wasn't very happy with it. You're better off finding a used copy of an old game somewhere online like eBay.

So far I picked up;

Dishonored
FTL: Faster Than Light
Airmech Starter pack
Portal 2
THQ Humble Bundle
Fractal (Got as a gift for buying a friend the Airmech starter)
Sidmeier's Civilization V: GOTY (Amazon)
Sidmeier's Civ. V: Gods and Kings (Amazon)
Civ IV: Complete (Amazon)
Stronghold: Complete (Amazon)

Picked up Eve also recently from steam and ended up dumping like $100 into that over the last month for game time for the next 6 months on 2 accounts.
Also trying to get a refund for the Civ. 4 I got on steam by mistake.. Lets see if they eventually give me a refund..

What else should I buy / look out for?

Just did the math on how much ive spent game wise in the last 2 years..

Gifts: $103
My self: $400

Why do you say that? What was wrong with it?

BTW, I might pick up a couple Prince of Persia games, do you guys recommend any of them over any of the others?

The older three games are the best of the franchise, according to most. If you have fond memories of the old console THPS games, HD doesn't really do them justice. The engine just seems a little "odd" for what you're doing. Not enough maps, not enough game types (no free skate), no multiplayer. But even with all that, I think I still managed to get about 4 hours out of it before getting bored.

Not played Prototype 2 but the original was pretty fun, although I did find it got boring later on.

Ah, well, if I do get a good few hours out of it, I'll be happy smile.gif. I seem to have a hard time spending money lately, except on a few, select things, so I'll try and break myself of that to pick up a few more games.

Yeah, I'm actually sad I didn't bite on that deal. I'm going to try to wait and see if it pops up again.

So far I've picked up Bastion, Orcs Must Die franchise, Prince of Persia and the THQ bundle pack. Spent just under 40 bucks so far, gotta love steam sales. It's too bad my motherboard decided to die on Christmas eve, now I'm buying stuff with no computer and huge anticipation to play all this stuff. I also gifted the binding of Isaac to a friend for about a buck, just so I can get that holiday badge.

FYI, if you're going for the Steam Holiday Sale badge, buying a game as a gift and then redeeming it yourself also counts. biggrin.gif
