Don't know if the post got deleted or glitched. if it got deleted, I'd like to know what I did, here goes a repost....

Time for some freebies up in this b!#%&! (remember when we used to do that in this thread?)

King Arthur Complete Collection ( King Arthur, King Arthur II + Dead Legions DLC, King Arthur Fallen Champions)

I want you to know, that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on you in a theatre
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
'cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able
To make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
Until you died, till you died
But you're still alive
And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

I understand the argument just fine. People claim the sale prices, in general, are lower because people have card money to burn. You guys are arguing that the pubs that have card games are adjusting prices knowing they can get more revenue from cards, which is probably true for most of them. But the Steam catalog is made up of a small percentage of those guys. Therefore, in general, prices are not different because of card money and most pubs don't care about card money.

I'm not saying you guys are incorrect, but I think we are looking at it from different angles.

I really would have thought a regular would have snapped it up. Didn't Cheapy say that a system for randomly giving code drops to regulars was going to be implemented in CAG 3.0??? It was a conversation that started after he implenmented the Code Giveaway page, and said that he had something better planned for 3.0. anyone remember that?

I was excited to hopefully nab that King Arthur code : (

Oh no, I agree completely, but the thing with desktops and college is:

a) You can't take your computer with you to class

b) Travelling (in this case cross-country, but really any distance) with a desktop is a pain, and considering that at college you come home for holidays, summers, and move into a new dorm pretty much every year, he'd be travelling a lot
Click to expand...
Laptops are absolutely important in college. I got a new laptop right after HS graduation and then built my desktop during sophomore year. Since I was within driving distance (well 8 hours) from home, I had no problem travelling with it during long breaks. But any travel shorter than winter break and I would just take my laptop.

That's not even exactly what I'm saying. I'm not talking about card revenue, I'm talking about cards being an incentive to buyers, and therefore slightly lower discounts being just as appealing since you get cards on top of the game. But sure, revenue from cards on top of that is true too.

But either way, I think Fox covered it well.

I keep seeing FF7 for 30% off but if I factor in card money left at the end of the Steam sale, then it will probably only cost me around $5 out of pocket unless Steam pulls out some crazy unexpected deals on like 50%+ on Rogue Legacy.

That's not what I am saying at all though. Card money and cards on the market have nothing to do with my argument. Maybe others are arguing that, but not me.

Woah woah woah, back up a second, they are selling Dungeon Siege 1 and 2 separately? Wow, they changed that, it used to be you had to buy DS 3 to get 1 and 2.

I hear DS 1 and 2 are great games. DS 3 isn't a bad game in any stretch. It's just really generic.

Last I heard, one (or was it both?) of those are incomplete on Steam. Missing expansion pack or something. Link.

My bad, not showing up as unread at the top of the page.

 
CAG has been doing all sorts of silly things for the past two days. One out three or so posts quoting mine give my notifications, while the rest go on with no notice. I also will multiquote posts, click to reply, and the reply box will stay blank, while the site wipes out the saved multiquotes.

Not to mention it runs as slow as mole asses.

 
You cannot get the expansions for Dungeon Siege 1 or 2 through steam, there is a way to link non steam expansion for DS2 through a registry edit though.

Do they even sell those anywhere? I ask because if I remember to buy DS 1 and 2 I will at the end of the sale.

Here's my quick review of playing five minutes of zombie mode on Ace of Spades:

Fun.

I got into a game just fine.  I don't know about long term.  Zombie mode is just that, half the team is zombies, half the team is gun people.  Zombies try to kill gun people.  Gun people try to stay alive or turn into zombies.

Things I learned:

1.  Zombies swim incredibly fast.

2.  Digging your way from under a structure all the way to the top just feels right as a zombie.

3.  Guns kill zombies pretty easily.

I could see this being fun if you could wrangle together a group for MP night.  No solo play or depth though, so I can see the concerns about buying too.

The get Squenix launch screen before going into the proper game. You do need to register for an account through them, which looks like it saves your gamestate on their cloud. As far as I can tell there's no invasive DRM.

You can chose to not use their cloud saving, but I think it disables the character booster stuff.

Ah, I see it now. It's even turned off by default.

I didn't see away around registering for an account when I first launched, but I also don't notice anything invasive, so I'm not too bothered.

 
So much for waiting on strike suit zero, maybe it'll be a flash though still 50% for Bastion wow wasn't even close.

 
lol...this is hilarious to me...this basically amounts to a popularity contest I think... if they made it so you could only vote for games you don't own maybe it'd be a different story?

 
MysterD said:

That game is a STEAL at 85% off.

I already own Bastion: Soundtrack Ed from Gamersgate, though.
Click to expand...
Yeah but it's been on sale at least once that I remember for sure this sale. I believe it was twice though. Not to mention it's been in indie bundles. If someone really wanted it they had ample chance to get it by now. I think the votes are turning out to be rigged though in favor of games that have cards.

THAT is one of the best ideas I've heard i a while. it would force better divesification among flash sales, as well as expose people to other worthy games that they'd be more willing to check out because they are cheap.

The only problem, look at the Dead Island L4D2 and Infected community choice. Most people would have to choose between the two worst zombie games ever seen! As long as it was a bit more regulated
 
On the talk on Bastion, use this as an excuse to buy the stellar soundtrack! I bought it Full Price and still have it on my IPod! (Low memory and the games that were free for iPod led to many deletions.
 
Finally bit on Warband today, after successfully talking myself out of it in the previous 47 sales.

Also picked up Gunpoint (Fantastic, but extremely short: I recommend waiting for a better sale and for the dev to figure out how to integrate Steam Workshop to allow for better user-created levels) and 10 Pinball FX2 tables (get Epic Quest.  Now.  No really, stop hesitating over pinball DLC, it's only $1.49 and a ludicrously great table.  Won't be getting any cheaper in this sale either).

Ummm.. L4D2 and Dead Island are good games, so not sure what the two "worst" ones you are referring to. The general idea would also be that maybe they would diversify the choices a bit too.

 
For the first couple hours Strike Suit was listed as -66%, not the corrected -85%. Probably a lot of people came in to catch the community vote and said "hey, Bastion's a great game. Good deal for someone who doesn't already own it," and voted accordingly.
