GMG's 50 Games You Must Play : 20-13

Through playfire I have about $5.66 on gmg. Right now the 3 things on the list that could catch my eye are Fallout 3, Dishonored or San Andreas.

Thing is, I've played all 3 of these games before, and I played New Vegas recently, in fact (seem to remember Washington being more interesting to explore compared to the Mojave desert, though).

Dishonored, however, includes all the DLC, which I haven't played, but I hear is better than the actual game.

So should I get one of these? Should I wait for 13-1? Skyrim will inevitably show up on the list, with the possible discounts would be either 75% or 80% ($4 or $5), but they don't have Legendary Edition, so DLC would be separate. Can't think of what else I might wait for. I don't want Origin, and GMG probably only sells origin keys, so Mass Effect would be out.

So what does the collective mind of SG suggest? Have there been better deals on these games before? Should I wait, should I get some specific game?

I'd say Dishonored. I like Fallout 3 too, but would only buy the GOTY.

wasting your whole credit just to get DLCs is not greatest idea imho, as DLCs will give you overall less content than base game you already finished, and with 5.66$ you will be able to easily buy some full game you want and never on sale. If not on this sale then on some in the future.

Oh, I don't mean getting the DLC separately. I don't own any of the games there (aside from Thief and Company of Heroes), but I've played those that I've mentioned before. Besides, this sale has the usual DLC problem where the entire game with the DLC is cheaper than the DLCs separately (and DLCs alone seem to go on sale a lot less).

San Andreas, absolutely. So much replay value in that game.

+1 to San Andreas. GTA is always fun. Plus in this one you're not constantly annoyed with calls to go to bowling :P

If you completed all three of them - wait. If you didn't, purchase the one which you most desire. I have to agree with @zelghadis, wasting your credit on DLC is not wise and not worth it, even if you don't own any of the games.

The problem is, I don't know any "Great" games (the kind that would show up on a list like this) that I haven't played or I'd be interested in playing. Like, I've no interest in strategy games like the Total War or Age of Empires or Company of Heroes games, and I've played everything else on that list (just don't own all of them). Even Skryim, I've actually played (for a bit, and again, no DLC)...

I'd suggest you don't buy fallout 3. It's great, but for example at summer sale it cost only 5€($) for the GOTY version. If you ever want to get the DLCs for it, wait with it until winter sale.
(Also don't forget a simple option: you don't need to spend your money anyways, you can wait until next big franchise deal, or something bigger sale)

I got Dishonored using GMG/Playfire credit a couple of hours ago.

I'm sure other gems will be on sale on their top 50 and indie lists but this deal was too good to pass...

Depends where you played Fallout 3 and San Andreas imo. If you played them on consoles and really loved them, the PC versions have tons of mods to mess with.

edit: -75% is also average for those two if you'd rather hold off for a game you've never played at all.
