    This links to Dead Island 2 for $36.00. There is also witcher2, Deus Ex and others off their retail tags. Is Dead Island 2 worth 36? Haven't picked up Witcher 2 as I haven't played an RPG in years. Good buy? For reference, I couldn't get into Oblivion because of the long time I think it took to engage me (sorry I am an FPS and fighting game and platformer junkie). Anyways, just a heads up about Amazon today!

    Witcher 2 is probably the most beautiful game out there right now, it is also a pretty fun game. Has a lot of replay value if you enjoy getting multiple endings. I personally loved Dead Island 2, the game really shines if you have a few buddies to play with. It's really up to you...since you're not a huge RPG fan (I'm assuming this because you couldn't get in to Oblivion) you may or may not enjoy these two

    I just bought Witcher 2 a few days ago. I haven't played it because I'm getting some funky graphical bug in the main menu and I havent finished the original game yet. I love the setting, though, and I'm looking forward to playing the sequel.

    here I see dead island cheaper. Never tried this site, tell me if it works ;)

    EDIT: Nevermind. It says "Important Notice: This key need to be activated with Russian IP. If you don't have a VPN service, we can activate your key for you. If you would like us to activate your key, please disable SteamGuard and provide your key, steam id and password. After activation the game is region free."

    Very very suspicious. I don't trust the site... maybe is just me
