Cheaper on others, not steam

I am seriously thinking I may finally bite on Civ 5 if it gets the vote. I played some of 3 and 4 and both were just to complex for my taste. I have read that 5 is a bit easier. I wish the Civ game from the 360 would come to steam as that was a game i really enjoyed.

No, I didn't miss it. But I didn't include that little bit of info because I thought it would make me seem pathetic for wanting a copy on Steam when I already got a copy for $1. lol

So I tried Offspring Fling, and well I don't think I could ever play that game again. It's not that it's bad, it's cute, has fun music, and I am sure the game is fine. It's just whenever I play it, the gameplay reminds me of Noah's Ark from the Bible Adventures NES game.

Oh god the pain...

Also why is Giana Sisters 4 gigs, it's a platformer?

It was only 1.8GB for me.

well holy shit, finally something im interested in, giana sisters. now before i even consider biting(still have some kind of hope that steam will discount far cry 3 even though i highly doubt it with this poor sale) is giana sisters cheaper than what it is on steam anywhere elese?

Pretty sure someone on the page before said it was the cheapest it's been and cheapest at the moment, even beating GMG's 30% voucher.
But holy cow 4GBs....o.o. I'm going to need a new HDD soon.

They did an excellent job with the visuals though. It's not some little fleabag thrown together indie game.

Plus Swedish Metal music.

Bought The Binding of Issac and The Wrath of the Lamb DLC for my brother for $1.98 total. Great deal!

I probably won't get it but Giana Sisters is a gorgeous game!!! Total Biscuit seemed to think it was solid too. Perhaps I'll give it a try down the road.

Not it.

Thinking I'm going in for Giana Sisters. It'll be cheaper someday, but five bucks so soon after release is good enough for me.

Going to keep waiting on FTL, though.

The greatest thing I got from Steam this sale is the '12 Holiday Sale badge.

Sigh...I missed the Sleeping Dogs deal. I was thinking about it all day and for some reason I thought it was a daily deal and not a flash...I hope it goes back on sale lol

It's good to see some "good enough" purchases around here instead of all the "BLARG SALE SURRKS" posts. I bought Giana Sisters as well at that price.

I sometimes wonder how people can post on this forum and not be aware of the HIB.

Steam has the demo to try out for free.

Yeah, the music in the demo was what really sold me on the game.

Did GOG give out the soundtrack for Giana? I'm not normally a soundtrack person but Giana's is awesome and I kind of want it.

Yes, but it only came with a 2 track sampler. No full soundtrack.
