I'm feeling pretty saled out too.  I've got all those Star Wars titles 
from the last sale I haven't touched more than a couple of, and some of 
the borderlands prequel games.

I was tempted by Doom and Dark Souls 2 which are at both at half price, 
but just couldn't bring myself to do it.

Also saw GTA V on sale which I've been wondering about, I finally 
started getting into it on the Xbox 360, but it looks like a lot of the 
action is in the online game, but I'm not paying micro$oft an additional 
$15 a month to play someone else's game online.  I might try it for a 
month to see if I like it (if the xbox 360 stuff even works online), but 
I'd have to up M$ gold again.

GTA V is having some backlash right now from a decision to ban 
single-player mods in favor of it's online game, which has apparently 
become a cash cow, so it's overall rating looks dismal on steam.

I did pick up a couple sub $1 games off my wishlist - Westerado and 
Death Skid marks, but haven't played them yet either.

I proably need to clean up my wishlist, I've got 100 titles on it. 
There's stuff on there I went through again this time that was now cheap 
that I just went 'meh' looking at them.
