One of my personal favorite games, DEFCON, is on sale for $1.99 at Green Man Gaming this week (spoiler: everybody dies). You have my word that it's worth the price of, I don't know, a Cheesy Gordita Crunch from Taco Bell or something. If you're in the market for something bigger and action-ey-er, however, Sleeping Dogs is 25% off at Get Games, Alan Wake is 75% off on Steam , and Arma II: Combined Operations is 30% off at GameFly. Much more below...

| GameFly | ► Arma II and Focus Home Interactive |
I use clocks to tell time and say "bravo" after rousing performances, but if you prefer their military applications, GameFly is having an Arma II sale . If a certain sadistic zombie mod is your target, $9 off Arma II: Combined Operations should help usher you into hell .
In addition, GameFly is offering 75% off select Focus Home Interactive games , such as Yesterday , Game of Thrones , and Wargame: European Escalation .
| GameStop | ► Total War and Focus Home Interactive |
GameStop has discounted even more Focus Home Interactive games, and also has Total War: Shogun 2 for $7.49 .
