Valve has brought back their regular weekend sale to their Steam service this week with something of an old school flavor. They have the entire X-Com franchise (five games in all) on sale this weekend only for just $4.99. That's a 66 percent savings from the pack's normal $14.99 price tag.

Also during the past week Steam has added number of games that were released in retail stores in the fall of 2008. These include EA's Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 and Dead Space along with Codemasters' Rise of the Argonauts and Activision's Quantum of Solace. They are all full price but hey, at least you won't have to deal with EA's DRM issues.
