Weekend game deals: 75% off Borderlands, Serious Sam

[Matthew DeCarlo]

It's a relatively slow weekend for game deals, but there are at least a couple noteworthy bargains. Microsoft's Games for Windows Live service has cut 75% off Borderlands, putting it at only $7.49 -- about the cheapest we've seen. Meanwhile, both Steam and Direct2Drive have reduced the Serious Sam titles by a substantial amount. GOG doesn't appear to have any actual discounts, but it's worth noting that the service has relaunched with its new design and offerings including Baldur's Gate.

Borderlands FTW!

Borderlands is a decent game, I'd recommend it especially for 8 bucks.

 

[TomSEA]

Yup, I'll second the Borderlands recommend, especially at that price.

Borderlands is a hoot and a holler if you bring one or two friends along. But does GFWL offer DLC on their website? I can't seem to find it, and that wouldn't be too awesome.

I bought one game off of GFWL a while back and it will probably be my last from them. I do not like their service. Not being able to backup downloaded games is a huge problem with their service. I don't wanna have to re-download my games all the time.
