Today’s Cheapskating features 28 scrumtulescent deals.
The 8th Humble Indie Bundle was released this Tuesday. Pay whatever you want to receive Little Inferno, Awesomenauts, Capsized, Thomas Was Alone, and Dear Esther PC download games, along with their soundtracks. So long as you pay at least $1, you’ll also receive Steam keys to add to your collection. And if you pay more than the average (currently $5.67), you’ll also receive Hotline Miami, Proteus, and the Proteus soundtrack. Pick a price, then split it as you desire between developers, charity, and Humble. Normally you’d pay close to $100 for these downloads.
Five years after the original CodeMasters release, Grid 2 hit American shelves this Tuesday. This arcade-style racer with polished graphics and tons of customizations receives a pretty solid 82/100 Metascore. The PC download version is $49.99, but you can grab it now at a $15 discount from GamesRocket, dropping the price to $34.49.
If you’re into historical PC strategy gaming, odds are you’ve heard of Crusaders Kings 2. Earlier this week, Paradox released the latest expansion pack The Old Gods, which gives the game an earlier 867 AD start date (previous start date was 1066 AD) and focuses in on the Vikings and other Pagan factions. The DLC was released for $14.99, but Green Man Gaming’s 20% off coupon code drops the price to $12, saving three bucks.
