These are dead, right? or will they work if you can still refer someone? I checked my e-mail too late, but I'm going in tomorrow to probably buy a 2500k and a Z68 motherboard; it'd be useful. :/

I played a copy of the old turn-based games, and they were pretty fun: Wanzer customization, tactics, OMG DID I REALLY JUST MAKE THAT SHOT type of luck things, but that was years ago. So then I hear about this mech gaming coming to the PC. With customizable parts! I've always wanted an...

But...but you don't have to wait for it to install! /s Seriously though, buy it on a PC if you've got one from the past 2-3 years. I'm running it on an E8500 (3.8), a GTX460 and 4GB of RAM and it plays great on high. In retrospect...I think I spent just as much time messing with mods in...

I think you nailed it on the head. If I were actually in Walmart and found this, I'd totally buy it. But instead? I'm here at home without any inclination (...did I say that right?) to go and leave to look for this.

On Titan Quest, I think the modding community released something that had the effect of no more grey/trash items dropping. I'm not sure how this was accomplished (or what things on game balance it touches, as I think enemies drop their equipped items), but it's something to look into...because...

Walked into the Toys R Us store on 360/290 and it was available there. ...that store seems really...uh, unkept (coming from having worked at another TrU and even went back after I quit).

I'm wondering on CoH. The base game was fun (never finished it, but damn did I play it for like 8 hours the first day), but I'm not sure if the expansions were are worth it. Lol, a quick glance at the Metacritic scores: 93, 87, 70. xD Anyone have first-hand experience?

I still remember the air strip sequence in CoD2. Man, I want to get that War Pack so bad just to play through all of the campaigns again. xD

Path of Exile is looking really good. Bastion is sorta close, but more story driven on centered more on building up a few items, rather than finding items and skilling up. (Still something to look into, though, since it's a good game anyway.)

The Steam backup function - as others have noted - is kinda...wonky. And - also, as others have noted - I seem to find the best way to "backup" my games is to just copy the steamapps folder.

You can actually earn all of the Champions with points earned from simply *playing* games. Now, I've played quite a bit over the past three weeks (~30 hours?) and still probably can't buy everything listed here. Different skins for the champions cost real money, ranging from $3 to $20, in some...

Tempting, but I don't want to give up the XL for this same reason. Add to that the issues about the ~4 battery life (though I don't think I'll ever be away from a wall plug that long, it's just nice insurance to have) that it had at launch and possibly still so...I'll probably wait around some...

I did this *exact* thing. They guy that was from the guide company got the sale on the console versions, but I was waiting for the PC; so when it came on as a daily deal for Steam, you better believe I jumped on top of that. :D

Some of it? The plane, there's a neat multirocket launcher...it's cheap, right? I explained more of it over here. There are mods that make them free, but you can't get them free (in-game) without the DLC. I'd at least get the rocket-propelled parachute pack and the explosives; and the one...

Didn't set a budget, but happy where it fell: Just Cause 2 Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition, Two Worlds II Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition Mount & Blade: With Fire & Sword, Frozen Synapse - Two Pack Defense Grid Map Packs (noticed too late that I could get them with tickets)...

Oh, for anyone wondering about the X series of games: if you don't have any and want to see what it's all about, grab Terran Conflict. I'd really only get the entire pack if you're a fan of the series and want the other games on Steam and/or want to replay them again. There's a number of UI...

So...TotalBiscuit's WTF is? series on Frozen Synapse got me to buy the game. I'll pick up With Fire and Sword, for the lulz. Dammit Steam.

Thoughts on some of the deals, if anyone cares: $2 - Trine: do you like platformers with a few puzzle elements? Get it. It's a fun ride (maybe a bit short), but the graphics are pretty and it's satisfying. $4 - M&B With Fire and Sword: Mount&Blade with guns. I always did want to try it...

I don't recall Two Worlds II being on sale at all until it became a Daily Deal. I guess I'll find out in a little over an hour... I have the the retail CE lying around somewhere but went ahead and bought it for the convenience of having everything in one place. Also, the CE items can be...

Two copies of DA:O Ult and single copy of Two Worlds II for me. Hooray!
