Alright, I voted for Dead Island Riptide. Hopefully, now I still get to keep my gamer cred by not voting for War-Z. Left 4 Dead 2 has been on sale so many times for 75% off already.
Click to expand...
I agree.

L4D2 has been on sale plenty at 75% or better.

I just can't vote for War-Z.

By default, even at 50% off, DI: Riptide gets my vote.

I surely won't buy it at *that* percentage-off price, though.

Fallout 3 is easily worth the original $60 asking price. I dropped 70 hours easily and I fully intend on replaying the Game of the Year edition with the DLC because it's that damn good.

Unrelated to the quote, I'm looking to start a Torchlight 2 4-pack if anyone is interested. Pack is currently priced at $15.00, which comes down to $3.75/person. Payment through Steam Wallet is probably the easiest way to go but I have no problem with PayPal either. PM or add me on Steam if interested.

Edit: Torchlight 2 group is full.

I actually bought FO3: CE from Retail for $70, week of release.

Most I ever dropped on a game.

Of course, I bought FO3: GOTY Ed cheap from Steam just to get ALL of the DLC, since I was missing all 5 DLC's.

 
My brother & I are willing to 4 way buy Torchlight II if anyone is down. No idea how to go about doing it, but we'll give you the money needed via paypal to make it happen!

Is Fall Out Vegas Ultimate Edition worth it? I'm not really that much of a completionist and I'd probably just try to get through the main game. It's only $2.50 more.

Doesn't the game have mod support too? So if I wanted more content, I could just download some?
Click to expand...
I have over 100 hours logged into FO:NV Ultimate - it's a steal at $5.

Just keep this in mind - you need FO:NV Ultimate (FO:NV + ALL content DLC's + 2 item DLC's) to run JE Sawyer's (Even More) Hardcore Mod, if you ever want to run that.

Plus, I highly advise you to go FO:NV Ultimate so you can do Old World Blues - i.e. the best DLC that I've ever played (so far).

If you play one DLC, play Old World Blues.

Though, you honestly should play them all - they're all good.

And Lonesome Road DLC is a pretty good end-game - to finish off your Courier's Story.

A new game called "Infestation: Survivor Stories" that is absolutely, unquestionably, definitely not "The War Z" under a different title is up for a community vote. Everyone should troll show steam our support for the under-utilized zombie genre and vote for it.

Son of a bitch, I voted for the damn renamed War Z.... I guess the developers name change might actually work as it might actually sucker more people into buying it thinking its a new game. I saw it and it was the only one I didn't recognize and it was 75% off so I voted for it. Left 4 Dead 2 was on sale the week before the Summer sale started and I already had it. Dead Island Riptide could've had my vote if it would've been 75% off. I guess the developers name change might actually work.

IT will be a glorious day when you all log in and start running... Thats when you will face your toughest challenge. A SMALL SLOPE!
You will all slide down and take fall damage and die and horrible and painful death of doom. From then on out your lives will be filled with hatred and regret and your family will disown you as you SLIDE down a life of depression and then ultimately meet your own demise again. :whee: :whee: :whee:

but but, it's a *car* game... and honestly the TrackMania folks are worse than Capcom when it comes to discounts/sales... which is why I doubt I'll see it lower.
Click to expand...
75% off or better normally is my rule.

There's always exceptions to my rule, of course.

I try not to break that rule often.

You can drop what $ you want on a game - your decision.

Plus, I know you love your racers. ;)

Oh, and thanks for the info about Nadeo being worse than Capcom on discounts/sales. That's good to know.

Wow one hour and no one has mentioned Trackmania Canyon is on flash $10 (50%) For shame!

Sure it's only 50% but that's the cheapest it's ever been afik. ...tempted...
Click to expand...
I played a ton of Trackmania United Forever and was looking forward to a package deal on the new Trackmania(s). Having to buy Canyon, Stadium, and Valley separately is kind of a bummer, especially since the other two games aren't on sale at all.

I remember picking up United for $10 a long time ago...but I don't know if a (hypothetical) package deal on the new set would ever be that cheap. Hmm...

 
Now that my Steam wallet is under $10, I've gotten super picky about the games I buy. I really should have started out that way, I guess. :/

Ys I&II, why did you make me buy you again? I already bought you on every console under the sun!

The absolute best is Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep, but you can't access it until you've beaten the main game. After that it's Captain Scarlett and Mr. Torgue, you need to be level 15 to play them. and then the worst is Captain Hammerlock, but it's not that bad, just not as avoid as the others, you also need to beat the game to access it.

Both if the DLC characters are fun and offer different styles of play than the four characters in the main game. And ultimate vault hunter is good because it raises the level cap.
 
Okay... well clearing cache/changing iP... waving magic wand stuff didn't resolve the fact that CAG has been totally borked for me for like 8 hours... testing across two macs and a win machine... all same issue...

It seems to be some bad interaction between Chrome (release & canary) and whatever CAG 3.0 rot has set it.  CAG 3.NO is working fine so far in Iceweasel
firefox

Noticed that too huh, bought the grandmaster total war collection. It didn't list the Kingdoms addon but got it with it anyways. I wonder what other things they don't list. Whoa look at the time, I gotta sleep.

Hand over your CAG badge, sir. You're in violation of article 40%.

Sir_Fragalot said:
Anyway I played They Bleed Pixels for cards. Can't say I recommend that game. It's not horrible but the game itself tries to hard to be essentially a easier version of meat boy but with actual full levels. Overall it has some interesting stuff, but the game just doesn't grab me.

I don't really understand why everyone insists on comparing it to Super Meat Boy, like SMB is the only difficult platformer in existence. I don't see the comparison besides the difficulty and brutal character deaths.

The controls in They Bleed Pixels are tight, the combat is interesting and varied, the checkpoint system is unique and works great (you collect blood drops and kill enemies to fill up a meter, and then once it's full you will spawn a checkpoint if you stand still for a few seconds), the soundtrack is excellent, the overall feel of the game is dark and interesting and heavily inspired by Lovecraft and classic literature. It's just a really cool game...

Not that I'm saying something's wrong with you for the game not grabbing you or anything though. I feel the same way about other games that people love (I abhor Dota 2). I just don't think TBP was "trying" to be an easier SMB. You've also probably not played very far into TBP either, since the difficulty steadily increases as you go, especially if you're trying to collect all the pages, kill all enemies, etc. TBP does its own thing in my opinion, and it does a damn good job. It's my favorite platformer in over a decade.

Noticed that too huh, bought the grandmaster total war collection. It didn't list the Kingdoms addon but got it with it anyways. I wonder what other things they don't list. Whoa look at the time, I gotta sleep.

Well Saints Row the Third: The Full Package (might come with the vanilla one as well) had a Cheapy D pack that added him as a homie, and there was the TF2 helmet pack, neither of which is listed
 
Sorry to ask again I'm sure, but is Borderlands 2 season pass worth it? It seems the price equals to the two major dlc and all the cosmetic stuff would be free after that?

Call of Juarez The Gunslinger was only 33% off, I miss the Hitman Collection at 75% and then Gunpoint loses the vote? Steam hates me :(

It gets compared to Super Meat Boy because SMB's massive sales success (which I would argue was largely due to marketing) led to a surge of difficult minimalist indie platformers, most of which are crap. They Bleed Pixels gets grouped into that, but TBP is actually really good unlike most of the others. Super Meat Boy is also likely the only other difficult platformer lots of people have ever played.

Trying to rack up high combo's in combat to get more blood actually reminded me of Devil May Cry.

Btw, does anyone have a copy of System Shock 2 available? I wasn't able to snag a copy in time.
