Cheapskating: Steam sale, Amazon deals, and Green Man Gaming

A squad of soldiers in MW3.

Christmas over? Not for gaming deals! Steam’s holiday sale is in full force and all the digital title distributors are making a mad dash this year to compete with (and beat) Steam sale prices. You’ll find giant bundle packs from Amazon, and Green Man Gaming, whose games are mostly activated on Steam, are coming in cheaper than Steam prices and still activating on Steam to add to your ever-expanding game library. It’s a win-win situation.
