Update: Sale is over
Amazon.com Has BioShock Infinite for $19.99 – this is for the downloadable Steam code, and MAKE SURE you only select the downloadable Steam code option.
The Steam code will allow you to select either the PC or Mac download.
It was released about a week ago by Aspyr, and this is about as cheap as you will find it. I have no idea on how long the sale will last, but it’s half-off.
There are some hefty requirements, starting with 30GB of HD space and OS X 10.8.4 Mountain Lion.
Revolution Software has announced that with The Broken Sword – the Serpent’s Curse Adventure Kickstarter project meeting most of their goals, they will greenlight Beneath a Steel Sky 2.
Steam’s 66% off weekend sale on Telltale’s Sam & Max games, commemorating the release of the first Sam & Max game 25 years go, is set to end Monday (September 17, 2012) at 10am Pacific Time, 1pm Eastern.
Overhaul Games has announced that Baldur’s Gate Enhanced Edition’s ship date has moved from September to November 2012 (including the Mac version). It’s a modern cross-platform remake of the original Baldur’s Gate (1998) and its Tales of the Sword Coast (1999) expansion pack, and will be available for $19.99 US through Apple’s Mac App Store.
It’s high on my list of most anticipated OS X games for the year – I loved the original Baldur’s Gate and Baldur’s Gate II games, and while BioWare has strayed very far from those days, Overhaul Games appears to be trying hard to capture the spirit of those original D&D computer roleplaying games as well as bring them up to the modern era. I hate that they made this announcement so close to the original ship date, but better to release a solid game from the start.
Steam Greenlight was announced by Valve in July as a way for gamers to support games that they wanted added to Steam. It went live a few weeks ago, and the first ten titles have been announced.
Chris Roberts, of Wing Commander, Privateer, Freelancer, and Starlancer fame, looks to be finally getting back into video games, and space-based games at that. Roberts has a new company it appears, and has been working for around a year.
