Tis The Season For A Steam Blowout

This site is rarely used to advertise deals, but this is one that cannot be passed up. Valve's Steam marketplace, the videogame equivalent to iTunes, is rocking the web without rocking our wallets this holiday. For those who still find that videogames, digital or physical, are too expensive to purchase, this package deal answers that very concern.
They're advertising for quite a few different packages, from indie hits to publisher sets, and one major publisher has quite the suprise. Eidos, the publisher behind Tomb Raider and Legacy of Kain, has twenty (20) games for $50. That's $2.50 a game! Of course, the games could just suck, but here's the line up:
- Batman: Arkham Asylum
- Battlestations Pacific
- Battlesations: Midway
- Conflict: Denied Ops
- Deus Ex: GotYE
- Deus Ex: Invisible War
- Flora's Fruit Farm
- Hitman 2: Silent Assassin
- Hitman: Blood Money
- Hitman: Codename 47
- Infernal
- Juse Cause
- Kane and Lynch: Dead Men
- Mini Ninjas
- Project: Snowblind
- Rogue Trooper
- Shellshock 2: Blood Trails
- Thief: Deadly Shadows
- Tomb Raider: Legend
- Tomb Raider: Underworld
Let's think about this for a moment - Batman alone lists for $50, $40 on a good day (on PC). That's the price of the entire bundle, and there are 19 other games. Not every title is a blockbuster, but two Tomb Raider games, most of the Hitman series, Deus Ex and Thief. This is pretty epic.
The individual price is $262.44, and even though I've never seen this bundle before, the bundle price is $100, with a limited half price sale. That's a $212.45 savings! Even though I already own and have completed Batman and Blood Money, the entire bundle is worth it. Think about how many hours of gameplay you'll get out of this $50 investment. Definitely easy to get to that golden $1/hour mark. I'm buying this right now and you should, too.
PS - Another great deal that should not be overlooked is the THQ Complete Pack - a $184.32 value for $75 right now.
