I was hoping for this one...
Supreme Commander Gold -- AWESOME! Supreme Commander is the best non-Blizzard RTS of the decade, and I'd very, very highly recommend it. It's from the designer of Total Annihalation and is very good. Plus you won't see this one again for $5 with the game and expansion for quite a while... there are some other good RTSes this week too, most prominently World in Conflict Gold and Company of Heroes Gold, but I doubt I'll get those other two... maybe WiC, but probably not. I've played it a little, it's fun but I prefer RTSes where you actually build buildings and stuff, while that one's units-only, like Ground Control or Myth or things like that. Good game, but I prefer more traditional kinds of RTS.
Oh, I got Drakensang: The Dark Eye as well. It's a German RPG based on a pen & paper game only available there... sounded interesting enough to be worth trying, for that price.
