A brief refresher: I have a partner store with GameFanShop for Sketchy Details. They offer discounts on over a 1000 different PC game downloads. If you shop at my partner store, I get a small commission on the sale to help keep Sketchy Details running. You get a great PC game at a great price. You shop, you register, you pay, and you get the code to download the game on Steam or instructions on how to use Ubisoft's atrocious UPlay server or whatever system the game is on. Here are the new deals for the week of 13 May 2013. They all end Sunday, 19 May:

• You can get StarDrive, a 4X space strategy game, for $28.99. This is one of those strategy games where you do everything you can to build the biggest empire in the universe.
• Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, a retro tongue in cheek shooter, is on sale for $14.49. It currently has an 79/100 at Metacritic and really captured the feel of the old arcade shooters.
• Mars: War Logs, a sci-fi RPG, is on sale for $14.99 (25% off). It's a cyberpunk-styled game with a lot of crafting options.

• Defiance, the MMO-shooter with ties to a SyFy show, is on sale for $42.99 (28% off). The servers are actually filling up with more players every day which makes all the difference with this game.



• Dead Island: Riptide, the tropical open world survival horror sequel, is on sale for $35.99 (10% off). I fell hard for the original and what I've played so far of the sequel marks it as an improvement in every way.
• Sniper Elite V2, a WWII tactical shooter, is on sale for $19.99 (60% off). The series bills itself as the most accurate WWII sniping simulator on the market.
