Past time travel? ... well, Ye cannae change the laws of physics.

 

[Dr Sasquatch]

Ok, but for those of us that have to buy it, yay or nay on Hard Reset

Yay for people who have to buy it, but nay for you, because you will be sent a key in 5... 4... 3...

When did something called Unepic get cards?

 

[swift17]

If you're not already using it Enhanced Steam is your best friend.

Damn it, cat scratched...

Fez? (past) Bundle Fodder.

You need http://www.enhancedsteam.com/ by our very own jshackles.

Thanks! I shall get this whenever I get the chance. In the mean time, I've decided to slow my roll and save money for later. I blame it on excitement of sales, damnit!

 

[spoderman]

You were supposed to notify me via PM first. Jerk.

 

[wtsutton]

Feeling very underwhelmed thus far.  I haven't bought a single thing after spending the last few days staring at the comp waiting for the sale to start.  Snorefest.

 

[CheapLikeAFox]

My poor pc isn't compatible with your rich steambox so I can't message you anymore. It gives me too poor message when I try.

 

[cranky2]

Did we do the obligatory "What do you want from this sale?", already?

Hotline Miami

From Dust

Don't Starve

Universe Sandbox (because Carl Sagan)

And obviously I want each of these in the $1 range, or free.

From Dust was $1... on Uplay... a year ago...I hope that information was helpful to you.

I agree with Fox here though. If Fez interestes you, 75% off ($2.50) is a good price, that's going to be hard to do better on outside of a bundle. Those of us suffering from terminal CAGtotsis take a pretty harsh view previously bundled games (and sometimes suspects for future bundles.

It's a good price, if you want it.

It wasn't helpful, which made it funny, which made it helpful. Mind blown.

Humble Hotline Bundle... EC credit, I could go on, but I'm just not feeling it.

Nuclear Throne

Spelunky

 

[ninjaculate]

Nuclear Throne will never go on sale. Ever ever.

Anyway, the games I'm looking for are all relatively new and won't get big discounts. Master Reboot, Doorkickers, Nuclear Throne..

 

[cranky2]

You forgot to PM me the Steam key.

If Novelist hits 50% I might bite.

 

[theemadgamer]

I'd love to replay Bioshock 1 and 2 on PC eventually, but buying it now and not playing it for quite a while seems...pointless.

You're holding it wrong, just saying.... $

 

[DPsycho]

There's that music software again.  But now that other options have also appeared on Steam, I feel I can resist it as I did the last time.

Hm.. I'll probably buy Urban Chaos. Now to decide on Scary Girl, despite MsNinjaSquirrel's anti-recommendation.

 

[theemadgamer]

Six minutes until the flashes change!!!! Ohhhhhhhhh....I'm as excited as a Japanese anime school girl.

I think I just peed a little!

I just peed a lot

Beat you

OMFG, how many more days of this?

From what I've read it's a pretty faithful port of the board game. I can't comment myself since I never played the board game but thats what I read. The game itself is fine, I've not run into any bugs myself. It has multiplayer and cross platform multiplayer so you can play people using the ipad version as well. I enjoy the game but I do have a few issues with it. But thats more about the design choices rather than something being wrong with the game. For that price I'd say its worth it if your wanting something WH40K.

Edit: It has has cards and you'll get 4 drops, and most are going for .29 cents right now. In case that tips it one way or the other for you.

 

[darksurtur]

I'm a bit behind due to work ... there have been 4 votes so far, right?

Omnikron is on sale too. Not sure if that is new addition today or was already on sale yesterday. Anyway, I grabbed it, Urban Chaos and Startopia at 75% off + 20% off w GMG20-ZB5D1-93X49 and then I used the 10 cent credit you get now for each game you buy. (I already had it from buying Anachronox and Deathrap Dungeon yesterday).

 

[spoderman]

The Risk of Rain community vote discount went from 40% off to 33% off.

Winter Voices @ 75% off is what I'm hoping for this sale.

Thank you for posting. I'm in for a copy of Mini Ninjas.

It is really helpful when CAGs drop deals from other places in here. I rarely go into other threads. Especially the Amazon thread. I find it impossible to figure out what deals are going on there. I don't have the patience to sift through a list of a thousand games or 500 post asking for discounts.

Amazon has Aliens CM and London 2012 Olympics for $2 each.

That was helpful to mysterd who was curious of the price but had no intentions to buy it

Assholes

 

[theemadgamer]

Ugh, I think I might be turning into a Steam game collector junkie. I'm thinking of grabbing Electronic Super Joy and Recettear. Anyone care to weigh on for me? I have no idea if I'll ever play any of these games but for a couple bucks, what's the harm?

That's the spirit!

 

[Trusty Mutsi]

Consider me a chump then because I'm seeing games I want to play at good prices and ready to pull the trigger. Is Fez at 75% off and $2.49 not a great deal? This is my first big sale since I'm in the process of finishing up my first computer build. I'm trying to go by SteamGameSales but I don't think it shows bundle prices.

I think that's a great price. Unless you're willing to wait on a bundle, I say go for it.

 

[Shifty Effect]

Is it bad that I'm on the lookout for visually impressive games just because my first real gaming rig will be complete soon?

Nope. I'm putting together a killer rig in a month or so. Looking forward to playing them visually stunning games too. Though my rule of thumb is 75% off or more.

Mentally visualizing Skyrim maxed out with high res textures and all dem mods...makes my eyes water.

The Witcher 2 is also a good game to be on the look out for if your wanting an eye candy game.

Dem mods is right.
