Welcome to the Steam deals thread V12, where we talk about just about everything except what games are on sale.
Please wipe your feet on the way in...

 
Summer Sale PSA: If you're new to Steam sales, be sure to check out both Enhanced Steam and Spoony's Official Guide to Steam Sales before you ask a question and/or spend more money than you'd care to say.
 
Before you ask, if a game is already a featured deal (daily/flash/community) that's the lowest it will go this sale. Feel free to buy without the worry it will get a better discount later on.

Well, I guess I maybe should have PMed you as well...
Where's the fun in that though?

Ok, I picked my prizes. For $4.99 I pick Assassin's Creed 2 Deluxe please? and with the spare penny I'd like a copy of Metro Last Light from Best Buy.

P.S. You're the greatest fox ever. Better than Fox News, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, Megan Fox, and 20th Century Fox combined. ;)

P.P.S. Happy Birthday for Sunday mate

I would like to thank Fox for the heads up on the Benihana birthday dinner as my bday is next month and I would have never known they did that.
 
A few years ago I remember seeing people who posted screenshots of them 'loading up' their Steam wallets with $500+ and spending it all. No idea how that was possible.
one word:

DOTA2

Finally did my first purchases of this steam sale.

Half Minute Hero Boy

Strike Vector (looks awesome, anyone else playing it?)

Batman Arkham Origins Season Pass

Batman Blackgate

Saints Row 4 season pass

Dishonored DLC.

I'm hoping Crimzon Clover goes on further discount or i'll pick that up on the last day. Also hoping for a better discount on the 1st castlevania lords of shadow.

Cool, getting you a Uplay copy from Newegg right now. You're going to have so much fun with Ass Creed II Deluxe Uplay!

Red Robin does it too if you sign up for their rewards club. 1 free burger the month of your birthday. If you have a place called The Keg they also give you a free dinner. We have one out here. I'm going Saturday for steak. I was at Red Robin on Tuesday :)

And I know you all are wondering and the answer is no, I have never stepped inside a Benihana or Keg other than for my free birthday meal. I do eat at Red Robin's sometimes even when they force me to pay.

Did not know that about red robin either. To signing up I go. Don't think we have a keg here in so cal.
 
Cool, getting you a Uplay copy from Newegg right now. You're going to have so much fun with Ass Creed II Deluxe Uplay!

Red Robin does it too if you sign up for their rewards club. 1 free burger the month of your birthday. If you have a place called The Keg they also give you a free dinner. We have one out here. I'm going Saturday for steak. I was at Red Robin on Tuesday :)

OMG suwheeeeeeeet!!! Uplay is my favourite.

Cheers mate ;)

I wish we had a Benihana here, we have a Red Robin though. Gotta sign up for that club.

 
It's funny that the guy thinks it's devs who are the ones who suffer. Most pirated stuff is AAA derpfodder. Devs rarely get a percentage of a sale, it's more often than not a flat fee from the publisher. So ultimately you'd be hurting... stockholders?
Sorry -- my sarcasm meter is broken. Can't tell if serious.

Assuming so, just follow the money trail to see the outcome of your scenario.

- Dev gets flat fee (assuming your scenario)

- Sales disappoint

- "Stockholders" hurt

- Dev doesn't get another contract (assuming contracted dev) or staff let go (assuming in-house)

 
Where's the fun in that though?

Ok, I picked my prizes. For $4.99 I pick Assassin's Creed 2 Deluxe please? and with the spare penny I'd like a copy of Metro Last Light from Best Buy.

P.S. You're the greatest fox ever. Better than Fox News, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, Megan Fox, and 20th Century Fox combined. ;)

P.P.S. Happy Birthday for Sunday mate
Not sure if you did the contest for your birthday or randomly, but it was pretty nice of you to give us a chance to win.

For some reason though, I really thought hitler cat would pick a sniper elite game. :razz:

 
one word:

DOTA2

Finally did my first purchases of this steam sale.

Half Minute Hero Boy

Strike Vector (looks awesome, anyone else playing it?)

Batman Arkham Origins Season Pass

Batman Blackgate

Saints Row 4 season pass

Dishonored DLC.

I'm hoping Crimzon Clover goes on further discount or i'll pick that up on the last day. Also hoping for a better discount on the 1st castlevania lords of shadow.
I hear Strike Vector is dead community-wise.

Obviously this'll change a bit with the sale, but lemme know if it ends up dying again. It's the only reason I hesitated on this price point.

I don't always drop a key, but when I do, it's in the wrong forum thread and it's from a Polish guy who insisted I take it.

In other news, I'm pissed Crusader Kings DLC wasn't discounted during the flash sale. HOW RUDE!!

Ihop gives you a free Fresh and Fruity Rooty Tooty (or something of equal value) on your birthday and day of signing up, I end up getting two meals in about a week apart. If you have a Grimaldi's Pizzeria, they give (or gave at least) a free pizza on your birthday if you signed up for their club thing. Arby's gives away a free small shake, if you have a Rubio's they give you basically $7 off (sign up online thing again).

Ruby Tuesday's used to give you a free burger, but the bastards changed it to some crummy offer last year.

Bunch more can find online, some of the deals are pretty meh at best but a few good ones, Benihanna's is the best of the lot though. If I recall, you can sit in the bar and get it there if you are an anti-social person (like myself).

 
Oh boy, a whole 20% off of Watch Donks.  And is LA Noire seriously 70% off the whole sale?  Feature sale for another 5%  Is that a joke?

I'm with you. Woohoo! I was already kind of interested in it then I got that blasted Magical Diary game in some bundle. That made Long Live the Queen a must have for me. (at the right price of course) :)

 
Long Live The Queen is published by Hanako Games, who only publish two other games on Steam: Magical Diary and Science Girls.

I'm definitely waiting on the bundle.

 
It's OK to admit you want to be the prettiest princess too.
That's what Princess Maker helps you do...that man card turned into an otaku hentai card a long time ago :D/.

BTW just had to mention I pretty much lost the will to craft more badges mainly cause i'm on team green and ever since the changes have pretty much come in last place every time. I will still craft 1 more summer badge since I need 2 more cards for it...but yeah....Steam gimmick for a very low chance of winning games...you lost me!

Long Live the Queen would be the perfect gag gift if I could convince (trick) any of my friends to even accept it, let alone play it. I imagine all I would get is a "lol no" and an un-redeemed gift in my inventory.

I'd play it if you gifted it to me ;)

Long Live the Queen is not something one should publicly admit to buying.
Haha that thing has more troll reviews for it than Fighter Within or Duke Nukem ForNever will ever have!

Still getting it...

 
It's no fun when the recipient actually wants it!

You've got to give it to someone who dismisses it, but then ends up getting hooked on it when they actually play it. Their mind starts to break down as they question themselves and how they could possibly ever get over the shame of being addicted to something so incredibly pink.

:twisted:

 
I liked Long Live the Queen. It's mostly about trying not to die on the way. It's probably not as 'cutesy' as some people think it is :)

If you dare give me that pussy ass shiznit, I'll have to pop a cap in your ass. #serious

 
Anyone here have experience with a 1216 x 684 resolution on their 720p tv?  What would be a good resolution to set a game at when it doesn't have the 1216 x 684 option? 

 
Wow I passed out at 10pm and never got to purchase goat simulator. I even had it open on my browser. Oh well you snooze you lose (literally in my case).

That sounds like overscan (on the TV) screwing something up. Have you tried to disable it?

Long Live the Queen is okay, but it's way too linear. You just die and start over until you figure out which way the game wants you to play it. There's a lot of ways to die but only one good ending (she doesn't get killed and then she becomes the queen). Compared to Princess Maker 2, where there are several endings depending on how you play. She can become a general or a scholar or a bandit or all sorts of things. I know the developer tries to downplay the similarities between the two games, but pfft. For $2.50, I'd give it a try, and if you do like it, try Princess Maker 2 in DOSbox. It was localised to English but never released and now you can find it at any abandonware site.

Also the Shovel Knight soundtrack and the arranged soundtrack were just released for free "pay what you want"

Also of note are the numerous AAA titles that have their sales projections over-estimated by ridiculous numbers, and when the title doesn't meet said ridiculous sales numbers (while still getting decent-to-great numbers just the same), the developer still gets shafted & has their staff shit-canned/studio shuttered.

Good, the world needs less AAA devs. May they all starve or make quality indie games, instead. Anyway, the whole piracy argument is moot. Everyone and their mother pirates these days whether it's games or movies or music or porn. Anyone who doesn't do it is either lying or over sixty. And still... everyone stays in business. AAA publishers and studios stay afloat so they can bring us more awesome five hour cinematic shooters.
