October is in full swing and that means there isn't much more time to fill your back catalog before you're drowned out by the new fall releases. Most retailers are trying to cram in a few deals, while a few others look to be biding their time for the Christmas holiday. Steam is offering up the Focus Home Interactive catalog, while Newegg offers up great 2K games, GamersGate celebrates Square Enix and Deep Silver, and GOG has some pretty amazing recent releases that are DRM-free, as always. Aside from that, it's a quiet week for big deals. Check out our full list of deals below.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
