http://www.indiegala.com/ Interstellar marines is on sale. Get a copy for $1. Get 3 copies for $5, one of which is the deluxe version.
 
I already have it, but I bought the 3 new copies anyways.  Hit me up if you want a copy.  I think this could turn into something awesome.

 For a dollar?

I used up all of my copies of the game.  But you can still get it for $1 (or whatever your upside down equivalent of it is in Aussieland) from indiegala.  Go get it!

picked up Deus Ex 1 and 2 [yes, DX fans - DX2 exists] for cheapsies. I forgot how chunky these games look. DX2 definitely feels like a console port and yet...no controller support - strangely the menus can be navigated with a controller. Looking at some 3rd party options, playing it with a keyboard just isn't that much fun.

I liked DX2 okay when it came out.  It was a step in the wrong direction from DX1, but I still enjoyed it for what it was.  I was a Kb/M player at the time, so lack of controller support didn't bother me... but it would now.

I think DX1 has several different HD texture packs out there.  Have you already looked into that?  I'm thinking I would enjoy a DX1 replay someday, but would probably have to use some tweaks to make it feel now like it did then.

Got into the TITANFALL Beta. So far it's a good bit of fun but already I can see that it suffers from the same issues as other shooters - mostly jerks.\

I played the Beta on PC this weekend for 2-3 hours.  I liked it.  Not enough to drop $60 on it anytime soon... and I often feel like any time I spend in competitive multiplayer gaming is fun, but ultimately does nothing to get me closer to finishing the games I must play before I die... so I don't look for those games much.
