Default What games have you bought recently?

This should be a mega thread and I'm surprised there isn't one already.

Post here when you buy a new game. Topic is quite open to discussion as I don't agree with the concept of "off-topic" as topics tend to evolve on their own into fantastic conversations. Discussion should be free yet the thread purpose will always remain the same.

Just recently I picked up:

Command and Conquer: The First Decade
Fear + 2 expansions

Those two were 2 for £25

Unreal Anthology (simply for the first Unreal Tournament) £9.99

After adding a GAME.CO.UK £3 off when you spend £30 discount code and then knocking £5 off from my reward card that came to £26.99. Right deal for 3 games.

Before that, last week, I bought:

Supreme Commander + Forged Alliance
Lord of the Rings Battle for Middle Earth II

Again, 2 for £25 in GAME.

Then, about a week before that (which was around my birthday) I picked up Company of Heroes + the DX10 patch (which having Opposing Fronts, I didn't even need! Just a bloody CD key) and Tomb Raider Anniversairy, which I'm yet to play as I haven't been arsed digging out my 360 pad to use with my PC 360 Wireless Receiver.

All in all, I'm chuffed. I just haven't played any of them yet.

I've gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with TF2. I liked TF Classic way back in the hay-day of Half Life, but man, I found it pretty damn crap.

I wish I could say that I've been buying all of the new games, but I've only had time for my one true love: COD4
