Don't know whether to get Amnesia or Orcs Must Die... I know for sure I'm getting the Portal 2 - Two Pack, given that the co-op is a must. I got to Chapter 6 in the solo play though.

I'm guessing you need the full game to unlock objectives?

Tried the Orcs Must Die! demo and I'm pretty sure I followed the goals to meet the one objective.

Edge is great on its own. Get the Two Tribes pack, because all 3 games are good, and they all have achievements.

My freebie finally clocked in. Had to go into TF2 and access the backpack, then close the game, that made it appear.
Seems my freebie was two lumps of coal. Originally, my plan was to craft these buggers, but some folks on /v/ crafted tons and tons of coal and got nothing but coupons. Maybe it's better just to save it up for that one in a bazillion chance. >_>

* one piece of coal

and I also bought Orcs Must Die! which apparently lags enormously when playing on high settings.
Okay, that does it, next year I'm going to buy a new pc!

Completing one of the achievements listed in the link below grants you one piece of coal, a coupon or a gifted game.
I think the achievements only start counting the day the game is a special deal of the day, so if you complete, for example, the Audiosurf achievement you don't get your reward until it's one of the daily deals.

And yeah, this. It never went below 40% in previous sales either. I was hoping it would be at least like 66% off this time =/ Guess I'll hold off on it again.

Amnesia is great if you can have fun just exploring and being scared out of your mind. Horror movies/games never get to me, but holy crap Amnesia did it. It was pretty great, really.
