Easily Search for cheaper prices on GOG, Amazon, Gamestop, Green Man Gaming, and GamersGate. Save Money. Save time.
I always forget (especially when Steam Sales occur) to comparison shop. Steam Snipe makes comparison shopping easier.
Adds a tiny bit of functionality to the "Add to Cart" button. If you hover over this button, three buttons will pop up for Amazon, GOG, and Gamestop. Clicking on one or more of these buttons opens a search result for the current game bundle. You still have to actually look at the result, but it certainly makes comparing prices (and features) easier.
Q: Why wouldn't I buy from Steam?
Short answer, because it may be cheaper somewhere else.
Long answer, it depends.
GOG is probably the most consumer friendly version of all large game distribution platforms. They let you download the game to your own computer WITHOUT DRM. This means that you really own it, contrasted with Steam's you-sort-of-own-but-are-actually-kind-of-licensing-but-not-quite ownership :).
Gamestop lets you actually own a physical copy of the thing, maybe that is important to you? Maybe you have lousy internet and it is faster to actually go to a Gamestop and buy the game?
Amazon has used copies of every games. It is a slight risk, but you can actually get games a lot cheaper if you are willing to look at used games.
People asked me to support Green Man Gaming, so I did. I was unfamiliar with it, but it does seem to have some games such as "Mass Effect 3" that Steam does not have. Also, it accepts Bitcoin, so that may be useful to you.
GamersGate appears to have the lowest historical price for most games, but sales are very short lived. Never hurts to check.
Finally, you just don't know unless you check. Maybe one of the 4 platforms (Steam, GOG, Gamestop, and Amazon) is running a crazy discount. Maybe one has a four pack deal where you only pay the price of three. Maybe one is selling the delux edition that was unavailable on any of the others. You just don't kno
