It's one of the worst weekends of the year; the weekend in between the NFC and AFC championship games and the Super Bowl. Sure there's the Pro Bowl but that game is worse to check out than a junior high league football matchup. However we do have one thing that will make the weekend cool; some great game sales including a way to get a PC game for free.
That free game offer comes from
Telltale Games who, as we reported earlier today, is offering the first season of Sam and Max
for just $4.95 from now until Sunday. Telltale is also giving folks a chance to get one free game episode from any of their many episodic titles
if they complete an online survey. The survey should take five to 10 minutes to complete. The free game offer is valid until Telltale gets enough data from the survey so if you want your freebie you need to move quickly.
In other PC game sales news,
Steam is offering two game bundles for just $2 each for this weekend. One is for the
Freedom Force bundle (with both of Irrational Games' super hero RPG titles). The other is for the
X-Com bundle (with all five games in the sci-fi series). In addition
Tropico 3 is on sale this weekend
for just $13.60. Finally, while not a weekend sale, Steam has added a new bundle to its lineup, the
1C Complete Collection. You can buy 17 games from 1C Company in this bundle and pay just $69.99 for the entire line-up.
Direct2Drive also has a weekend sale, as it takes off $5 from the
recent action game Dark Void for this weekend only. The discount is valid if you put in the code
5OFFDARKVOID at checkout. And for the next week they have the first person shooter
Red Faction Guerrilla for just $4.95.
