    I'm hoping Fallout 3 + DLC's will be reduced, so i can finally install TTW.

    Main Rig

    Intel Core i7-2600K (SLB8W, E0 Stepping) @ 4.6Ghz (4.6x100), Corsair H80i AIO Cooler
    MSI Z77A GD-65 Gaming (MS-7551), v25 BIOS
    Kingston HyperX 16GB (2x8GB) PC3-19200 Kit (HX24C11BRK2/16-OC) @ 1.5v, 11-13-13-30 Timings (1:8 Ratio)
    8GB MSI Radeon R9 390X (1080 Mhz Core, 6000 Mhz Memory)
    NZXT H440 Case with NZXT Hue+ Installed
    24" Dell U2412HM (1920x1200, e-IPS panel)
    1 x 500GB Samsung 850 EVO (Boot & Install)
    1 x 2Tb Hitachi 7K2000 in External Enclosure (Scratch Disk)


    Entertainment Setup

    Samsung Series 6 37" 1080p TV
    Gigabyte GA-J1800N-D2H based media PC, Mini ITX Case, Blu-Ray Drive
    Netgear ReadyNAS104 w/4x2TB Toshiba DTACA200's for 5.8TB Volume size

    I refuse to participate in any debate with creationists because doing so would give them the "oxygen of respectability" that they want.
    Creationists don't mind being beaten in an argument. What matters to them is that I give them recognition by bothering to argue with them in public.

    I have Witcher 3 Pre ordered.

    Unless it goes on Sale, I should not cancel it.

    The best game of 2014! Btw, Battlefield 4 Close Quarters Hardline is 60$. A lot of people say it is a badly made DLC, I agree.

    It really breaks my heart when I see people stating that BF4 is the best thing that happened to PC gaming this year. Specially when I see it on forums like XS. Consolitis is a cruel disease.

    I would wait. Even if it doesn't get a better discount, a 15% isn't exactly great.

    On top of that, I bought it on launch and it is still not worth the price. It has not come very far since then either. I'm a big supporter but the lack of zombies that function makes the game a "deathmatch" which is the complete opposite of what the game intends to be.

    Don't buy games unless its community vote, flash sale, or daily deal! Otherwise wait till the last day of the sale.

    And there was a 650MB patch for DayZ, I hear its actually playable now.
