PC DD - Steam sale - The first one was a few days ago; the latter two were on sale today or yesterday.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 - $5. I quite liked RA2 back in 2000, but didn't stick with the series. I have the expansion pack to this game from a bundle, though, so I should get the main game too... and I've heard that RA3 is decent, so it's probably worth playing.
FTL Advanced Edition - $2.50 - Not sure if I'll like this or not, but it's gotten so much attention, and I do like many strategy games, so hopefully I like it!
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons - $1.50 - Fairly highly acclaimed 2.5d platformer.
NES

Jurassic Park - $7, cart only - Decent top-down shooter with some exploration elements. It's not a great game, but it's good, and is way better than your average NES licensed game!
Atari 2600
--
Keystone Kapers - $4, cartridge and manual (no box) - good-looking and decently-well-playing (for the time) sidescrolling catch-up-to-the-criminal game. As usual on Atari it's a quite simple game, you mostly just run along and dodge stuff, but it can be fun, for a little while anyway. Nice to have the manual too.
Oink - free (with above two purchases), would have been $1 - Sort of like reverse Breakout. You're one of the little pigs, trying to defend your house from the attacking Big Bad Wolf.
