Saints Row 2 is good also. I played a bit of that not too long ago, maybe a dozen hours or so and want to get back to it at some point. It looks good too for its age. For anyone not aware, the port was problematic and it is important to get and install the "Gentlemen of the Row" mod and then you are good to go. It ran just great for me with that installed. I had no problems at all.
I need to lay off the sales until I clear a whole lot more backlog myself. I don't plan to buy anything this summer and probably not in the fall and winter seasonal sales either. I do window shop though and consider adding things to the wish list during these. I find the key for me personally is to keep reminding myself, this will be on sale again later and probably even cheaper (depending on the game and its age of course) so I do not need to be buying anything I won't even play until next year.
Just a little word of caution from a recovering compulsive shopper.
That said, for RPG fans the deal they had on all three Infinity Engine remakes (not sure if that was a timed one or not) is a steal for hundreds of hours of classic D&D RPG fun. I'd love to pick those up DRM-free but as I said, I'll wait. I am so hopeful they do Planescape Torment and the BG game they are working on turns out really well.
