What game would you buy? It could be something you already own. Looking for a great game regardless of genre.

Are you buying on sale because price is important?

A bargain at full price is John Tiller's Campaign Series. 3 full games, 2d counter mode or 3d sprite mode, more battles and campaigns than you can play in a year. Easy on the hardware. I had it running in Wine on Linux too.

Armada 2526 with the Supernova expansion, and Distant Worlds with both the Return of the Shakturi and Legends expansions. Right now, they're the two best space strategy games out there!

I picked up pretty much all of the Matrix games catalogue during this sale. Even games that were too advanced for me because I know I will learn them by the next sale when new games are produced

No

I gave up on Linux and wine when I got windows 8. With Ubuntu 12.04 and wine 1.41 I had JTCS and Battle Academy working.
