Steam has kicked off a free weekend event for a pair of quality games that you can check out (and then buy for cheap) this weekend.

No Caption Provided

Tropico 5 can be downloaded and played as much as you want for free from now until this Sunday, March 22, at 1 PM Pacific. If you want to keep playing beyond then, the full version is 75 percent off until Monday at 10 AM, dropping its price to just $10. Alternatively, if you know anyone else who might be interested in a copy, you can pick up the two-pack for $17.49 or the four-pack for $30.

Killing Floor is also free to from now until Sunday at 1 PM. And, just like Tropico, you can pick up the full thing for 75 percent off ($5). The six-pack also carries the discount, bringing its price down to $24.98, and all of the game's DLC is also on sale, ranging in price from $1.24 to $1.99.

Tropico 5 is the latest game in the city-building franchise, while Killing Floor has a sequel coming out later this year.

Few games do gunplay at the same quality or better than killing floor. Like to shoot stuff? Try it.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I'd like it more if I didn't have to forward a bunch of ports a read a guide to get the multiplayer working. Once I can actually play the co-op, it's pretty good.

<< LINK REMOVED >><< LINK REMOVED >> I had one issue before where I kept getting crashes, so I had to bump up my paging file. To be fair, it was mostly a mod to start. I'm hoping Killing Floor 2 arrives a lot more optimized. Also, I'm hoping I don't have to upgrade to play it.

I've never been able to get into a Tropico game. I've tried two or three times and it's always seemed completely devoid of character and polish.

<< LINK REMOVED >> I played Tropico 5 on PC and it seemed very polished and the characters were great. Seemed like a nice improvement over the previous games personally.

Cr1tikal does voicework in Tropico 5 as a jaded American tourist. I suggest playing it just for this.
