        Do you have small children? My 2 year old bought a game one time from the old dashboard when I wasn’t looking. Check your purchase history and see if that happened.

    The 360 version of Dungeon Defenders will be the third version of DD I buy, also getting Orcs Must Die.

    already got Orcs on Steam, and only game here that is interesting would be Dungeon Defenders… but recon im getting it also on Steam, because I enjoyed the demo more on that platform (like the mouse control better).

    does anyone know what “JP” stands for in “GTA IV – The Lost and Damned JP”? its more expensive than the normal DLC…

      It would seem like it stands for Japan.  As in the Japan region will also have this DLC on sale?  Either that or there is a specialized/localized version of the The Lost and the Damned made specifically for Japan.

      That’s my guess.
