Free stuff:
There are quite a few free games (mostly Free to Play) and mods available via the Steam platform, a comprehensive list of which can be found in this thread on the SPUF.

The Russian pricing block really puts a damper on things. Pretty soon we're going to have to pay normal Steam sale pricing instead of Russian pricing on top of the Steam sale pricing...

...Like casuals

If anyone is interested on splitting it I can give 50 cents for Dark Sector.

An ok bundle for anyone that missed Dark Sector and GTR Evolution, but the others are either garbage or repeats that everyone should own by now.

Dunno if it was posted already but Steam added a new flag that allows them to block the gifting/trading of games outside of their region of purchase. Days of Russian pricing are over, friends.

To teach Mooby a lesson! The following apps were updated to block cross region trades and gifts in the past 24 hours:

- The Banner Saga
- Hegemony Rome: The Rise of Caesar
- Payday 2
- Divinity: Original Sin
- South Park
- Thief
- Banished
- Rust
- Hawken
- 7 Days to Die
- Deadfall Adventures
- Injustice
- Assetto Corsa
- Kerbal Space Program

Many more to come, I'm sure.

Sigh...no more delaying the inevitable. And I still hadn't picked up Injustice, too...

They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Why don't think throw in Magicka while they're at it...

I don't think it has been posted, but in regards to the Blink Bundle 2, a little spoder told me Legends of Aethereus and Blue Toad Murder Files are two more of the games that will be in it (S & O).

EDIT: so there's apparently a Blink Bundle thread I didn't know about. I guess that's what I get for not venturing outside this thread...

y u no link it?

I don't feel like wading through to console peasant wasteland that exists beyond my subscribed threads.

Dream Pinball 3D sucks.

 
mmm… I've yet to own that Spacechem dlc, apparently. I hope they don't start a "reboot" line of bundles. The last thing we need is a theme of only repeats.

Hmmm, I don't have Dark Sector, GTR Evolution, or Dream Pinball. And I could always use an extra copy of Dino D-Day...decisions..
Click to expand...
Dark Sector and GTR Evolution are probably the two main draws of that bundle, perhaps making it worth it. The only thing I need from it is the Spacechem DLC, which does not at all make it worth it.

Yeah, I'm still thinking about it. If I pull a you and forget to buy it in the first 48 then I guess the decision will have been made for me.

I think this of all pinball games.

y u skip quickfire indie bundle?/?

Probably was doing the whole being selective with bundles thing. I should probably get back to that and skip this one too, but the $2 price is tempting.

Well, that's really sad news if it spreads as far as we fear it will... I guess I'll try to look on the bright side. I doubt the Russians were really saving me money... I was just getting more games. Aka the same amount of money was being spent.

Maybe now I'll get more played and less backlogged.

Naw... This just sucks.

That flag was originally added when Metal Gear Rising was added to the store.

It sucks, but more publishers jumping on using it was bound to happen sometime. Buying gift copies from russian sellers has become a lot more popular than it was originally, not only on CAG, and I'm sure Valve took notice of it.

The way the "weekend" sales work is that the dev will rotate 50-75% titles each day. Just wait.
Click to expand...
Oh, nice. I figured the games themselves would rotate in and out of the sale, but I couldn't figure out what the hell else they could fit into the sale, since every Ubisoft game I can think of is already listed.

 
spoderman said around 4bucks is that true if yes me buy from my russian guy . only trackmania is not on sale loooooooooll

Honestly the news that Steam is stopping the trading of Russian-bought games to other regions is a game-changer for me.  Yes, it was probably inevitable.

But in going this route, Valve and publishers....

[1] Kill the thrill of the hunt.  Finding the best price on a game I will never actually play is part of the appeal of Steam for me.  Its not just about a backlog, its about having an enormous collection in my Inventory.  I accomplish nothing by having a large Inventory - literally no one cares - but I take a weird joy in knowing how many options I could potentially choose from at any moment.  Or find enjoyment in giving some fun games away, etc.

[2] Make me buy less games.  That's a given.

[3] Start to act like the console makers.  I love the openness of Steam.  The more you curtail how I acquire games, the more you resemble Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo.  And that is not a good thing for PC gamers.

We'll see where this leads.  But I am not amused.
