I guess it must have been horrible?

According to everything I've read, it's a buggy broken mess.

Elven Legacy is 14.99 on GamersGate.  Has anyone played it yet, it looks interesting.

I think i'm going to pick it up, the demo was pretty cool.
I liked the demo but the reviews I read were a pretty mixed bag and the forum over at P'dox is nothing but Bug Reports. :(

Get it soon and play the hell of of it before the sale ends so you can report back. :)

Sam and Max Season 1 is pretty good.  Not $15.00 good, though.

How long is it?

I'm most tempted by the Strongbad one, but Sam and Max looks potentially interesting.

Scipio

Well, I beat the first episode of season 1 in about four hours.  YMMV.

Steam's Weekend Deal is Call of Duty: World at War for 50% off (that's $25 in the US). Based on the reported length of the SP campaign (~6 hours, generously) and the lack of multiplayer bots I think I'll pass, but it's probably a good deal if you want an adversarial online WW2 shooter.

Instead, I bought Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance, Elven Legacy, and ended up picking up Plants vs. Zombies.

Damn sales and hypnotic flowers. <_<

Grey Fox

It's a good game. I didn't like the MP tho, I had enough of WWII weapons.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

I just got Neverwinter Nights 2 vanilla for 5 euros: is the game any good?

It's worth 5euro, especially if you were interested in NWN1. I haven't checked out the modding community at all, but if it's anything like the first game's, you should be able to extend your value.
