Awh yes. Been wanting Valkyria Chronicles for a while. I was gonna get it on PS3 but hopefully the PC port is good.

Rest assured, PC ports good.

guys im looking at this new shiny informative OP trying to figure out what the metagame is but I see nothing about it HUHHHHHHHhHhHHhHhhH

 

[bndadm]

www.humblebundle.com

I saw that but I couldn't quite figure out how to only buy Super Meat Boy (didn't want the extra games).

 

[Enco]

It more likely didn't.

they bumped up the price by adding those online money cards for this sale.

Such a sleazy move.

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

bought 3 copies of valkyria chronicles, good sale so far

 

[wotter]

am I the only one not being able to get in this at all?

 

[Grief.exe]

Pricing errors aside this is the worst opening day for Steanm sales in a while.

Words from someone who has most of the games.

It's a phenomenal opening day for people who are new to the platform, of which there have been millions over the past year.

Don't Starve? Metro? Hotline Miami? Homeworld? Isaac? Valkyria? Xcom? Papers Please?

These are some of the best games in their respective genres. If you don't have these, then you need to buy them.

 

[Quadraphonic]

It more likely didn't.

they bumped up the price by adding those online money cards for this sale.

No. They didn't. People who have the original game in their wishlist can see the original title now raised to $85.

If you go on the page for the item, there is NO GAME listed at the $84.99 posted, even before the sale.

I guess GTA V should have done nothing and not give out the crappy monopoly money.

That's literally what they should have done.

Here's some info: It's broken.

 

[zma1013]

That GTAV "sale" is a good swift kick in the nuts.

 

[xrayregime]

Soooooo, Silent Hill: Homecoming for 10 bucks...that's gotta be the best sales price it's ever had, right? Wonder if it will be a daily this year.

 

[Murray97]

FFXIV still 9.99€ meh. Wonder if it will even get a discount at all during this sale.

Isn't that already the cheapest price for the PC version?

You also get 30 days so you aren't really paying anything for it.

 

[Elija2]

Oh wow, Earth Defence Force is on sale for the first time that I can remember. I'm gonna wait it out and see if it becomes a daily/flash deal, even though that's pretty unlikely.

 

[kabel]

am I the only one not being able to get in this at all?

Nope

 

[super-famicom]

Super Meat Boy at $2.99. Why yes, hello, welcome to my Library.
This year I'm going to actively follow the guidelines and not buy it unless it's a Flash/Daily deal until the end. I promise I will.

www.humblebundle.com

Yeah, the current Bundle right now is pretty good (if you don't already have the games). You could have gotten Super Meat Boy, Dust Force, and World of Goo for like $1.

 

[Real Hero]

I lost all my money in that game

 

[Nabs]

That GTAV "sale" is a good swift kick in the nuts.

No, the GTA sale at 1pm was a kick in the nuts. It made us all think the game was $30 or less.

 

[El Topo]

I can't help but chuckle at the non-existing discount for Darkness 2, or at least the censored version.

 

[RSP]

Not a daily deal or anything, but we're giving a 50% discount on out game It came from space, and ate our brains. It just got updated with a couple of nice features as well. Hope you like it!

 

[aku:jiki]

I saw that but I couldn't quite figure out how to only buy Super Meat Boy (didn't want the extra games).

So don't actually redeem them or just give them to your friends. It's still $1 for Super Meat Boy.

 

[KieranD]

Just bought Tomb Raider for 9.99 got 50 per cent off was 20.

I'm thinking of buying the new one coming to xbox one might as well play the last one and see if i like it.

 

[-MD-]

Would anyone mind swapping a $10 steam game (your choice) for a $10 Battle.net game?

Specifically this https://us.battle.net/shop/en/product/starcraft-ii-heart-of-the-swarm

I wanna buy it but only have Steam wallet funds.

 

[diaspora]

Just picked up the Darksiders bundle and Xcom bundle.

 

[Merguson]

I already have XCOM: EU and I want to play EW. Should I purchase the complete package or should I wait for EW to be discounted further. Right now it's only at 50% off.

I'm seeing EW at 80% off. Canadian store.

EDIT: The regular price for EW is $54.99? What.

 

[Toma]

In case anyone is interested, I am working on our traditional yearly Indie game steam sale thread now. Still need a while, but I'll also need your help to hunt down some good deals later on.

 

[super-famicom]

I saw that but I couldn't quite figure out how to only buy Super Meat Boy (didn't want the extra games).

They all come as separate codes, you could just give away the ones you don't want on GAF.

 

[plc268]

This is the first sale ever on Steam I'm just staring at the front page with nothing to buy.

Shit guys I'm hitting that point now

Yea, once you've picked all the low hanging fruit from previous sales, there's not a whole lot to be excited about.

I still miss the crazy publisher collection deals they had several years back. That was the height of steam sales for me.

Yea totally. All my friends that are new to PC gaming are super excited but as the tired old vet I am I'm not pleased. I was hoping for at least a good GTAV sale. Just like 20 bucks off but they fucked us good.

 

[Juke Joint Jezebel]

It more likely didn't.

Rockstar and 2K can piss right off then. Dodging!

 

[His Majesty]

am I the only one not being able to get in this at all?

No I can't play either. Maybe I should be glad.

 

[Mavromatis]

Here's some info: It's broken.

Well if it is broken explain this:

Spoiler

Hint: It's really broken.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

lol, those games are so stupid (and are not working, obviously).

 

[KingKong]

Anyone else not getting cards? I should have earned 2 (spent 10$+ and joined monster game) but I've got nothing

I'll do it if I can, I'm in the UK, no idea if it will work or not
Send me a PM

Actually, wait, I don't want to do that.

Sorry

 

[SenatorBot]

Doesn't seem to be anything interesting today.

To bad.

 

[MattyG]

So Elder Scrolls Online isn't discounted at all right now... we probably won't see it on sale at any point, will we?

 

[dave is ok]

I'm just happy Valve released a game.

Take that haterz!

 

[Kid Ska]

Here's some info: It's broken.

Yes. So, so broken.

 

[Tampler]

So Elder Scrolls Online isn't discounted at all right now... we probably won't see it on sale at any point, will we?

Hard to tell, since it got "Relaunched" a few months ago. I can see it going on sale, but not by much.

 

[zma1013]

Headphone Users Beware: The Steam Monster game thing is stupidly loud.

Heart of The Swarm is also 9.99 at Best Buy this week.

 

[OraleeWey]

Thoughts on left for dead 2?????

 

[inm8num2]

The monster game doesn't like me very much.

 

[Shady859]

guys im looking at this new shiny informative OP trying to figure out what the metagame is but I see nothing about it HUHHHHHHHhHhHHhHhhH

It's Clicker Heroes with other games character skins.

Spoiler

and completely broken

 

[Bytes]

If it's not discounted at all, it will likely never be in this sale. Unless they were sneaky and made it so that it only gets discounted if it gets to be a flash or daily, but even then you can be sure it will be a tiny discount.

Considering how this first day has gone, it's like game publishers are begging me not to buy their stuff - and I am more than happy to oblige.

 

[Sch1sm]

Oops. Double.

 

[Iadien]

This game is broken as hell, no surprise.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Wish there was some coal out there to craft.

 

[Soren_lost]

I know im supposed to wait for the daily deal, but i want dreamfall chapters( 33% off).

 

[Kid Ska]

I miss Pink Team. Might throw up my old pink avatar for the hell of it.
