I'm struggling with the decision on whether or not to get Sims 4.  What better way to help with indecisiveness than crowd-sourcing and individual input? :D  If you have anything you'd like to mention, recommend, or warn me about or what not, please let me know in the comments. :D

Whether you like simulation games or not, you can't argue with the fact that you will get a lot of value if you buy The Sims 4 for only $5. So, I say sure.

If you like MMORPGs, I would suggest getting Black Desert Online when it's on sale. It gets a lot of hate, but it's really worth the $5, imo.

Bought an i5, got an i7. Thanks Amazon.

Battlefield 4 is $5 right now, too, and is a bigger (and I think better) game than Battlefield 3, and has more active players.
