Steam Holiday Daily Deal: 12/30/11, a meaty revolution

Today's Steam daily deals for December 30th are nice, but some could have been found cheaper elsewhere earlier in the week—i.e Deus Ex at $10 on Amazon, and able to be activated on Steam. That said, deals are missed and some people just prefer going through Steam and if that is the case for you; well then, today has some pretty good deals for some games I really love. And when I say love, I mean I would go all the way with them on prom night if I had the chance.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is one of my favorite games on 2011 and is worth paying full price, so any sale is a deal in my eyes. The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena delivered a decent new campaign, but the original game (included) is still fantastic and is way better than even Pitch Black—it's Vin Diesel's greatest work after The Pacifier. Civilization V is more Civilization and a bit more accessible—which some had a problem with, but I am not one of some. My last bit of personal pimpage goes out to Driver San Fracisco; though I didn't play much, I've only heard great things and how can you say no to a game where you're in a coma? Links and blah, blah, blah blehlow.
