Grabbed South Park and Ground Zeroes. Two more games off my wishlist.
Overwhelming yay. I finished it for the first time last night (I'm very LTTP) and couldn't believe how much of a leap the MGS series has taken in terms of gameplay. The full game is going to blow minds.
The only downside is that Kiefer as BB is still a horrible choice and is like a bloody nose on a beautiful face. He doesn't fit at all and his acting is pretty meh.
Decent single player?
I think this is the fifth time I say this just during this sale, but hey, let's do it again.
This is a very successful (both in sales and in acclaim) game which is less than 3 months old. Selling it for 50% off would be stupid.
Also, before someone says it, no, this does not make the sale worse than previous ones. 3 months old highly successful games were never routinely discounted by 50%+.
God damnit.they added new tiers, at least to 1m now

I'm in as well. Or should I wait for half hour or so to see if Steam updates it to the actual sale price. Aren't they late most of the time?

Hey people, here's a PSA: SpeedRunners is some of the most fun you'll have on Steam. It's great locally and online.
It's still in Early Access because they're always adding more content, not because it lacks any.
How is it with only 2 people?

The timing of me checking the page once a day literally just when it refreshed can only be described as miraculous. :lol
The golden age of sales carries on!
still nothing for me 
Hopefully it'll turn up at the last day.

It's coming, it always appears.
so anyone who likes dungeon crawlers / roguelikes I want to make sure you don't miss out on this little gem
one way heroics
at the massive price of 69 cents I know it could be hard to trust me and part with your money, but it's a ton of fun if you like those types of games, with a ton of secrets to find and a progression system to get stronger between runs.
There is also a new version of the game coming to steam later this year (it will be stand alone but I think saves might carry over) so it's a good way to see if it would be worth getting the new version later (that adds more classes and a lot of other things)
but yeah this game was liked so much that Spike Chunsoft said... WE WANT THAT! and decided to commission a remake of the game under their mysterious brand

Anyone know if Euro Truck would run decently on a 2014 Macbook Air? Got an Intel HD 5000.

Has anyone bought displayfusion through Steam? I'm wondering if you have to have steam running in order to use it, and how it handles detecting the different computers it's installed on (is it checking against being "installed" through steam and frees up one of the four slots when you "uninstall" through steam).
It was on PSN, which may be what they were remembering.

I've never been a big Metal Gear fan but I can't say no to $5.

How's Offworld Trading Company?
I don't have it on Steam, but I'm also curious.
(I actually own a license of the program. It's really good)
It was for all consoles, yeah. EBGames/GameStop even had this thing where you could pick it up for 9.99 at a point, but this is the lowest price it's been on Steam since release there. Same as Winter Sale.
Not available in my country.
Guys in the SEA region, can you buy this game?Yupe, Skyrim Legendary Edition is still cheaper than Skyrim with all the DLC combined. I give up.

this sale has been pretty underwhelming.
It's alright with two, but you'll find matches go long once both players get decent at the game.
The main mechanic of the game is that you die if you fall too far behind off the screen, so it's more surviving laps than finishing a race. When this happens in a 3-4 player game, the border of the screen slowly starts to shrink, meaning it's harder and harder to stay on the screen. Eventually you end up with a tiny space where a small mistake will kill you (and it gets really intense!)
The "screen shrink" doesn't happen until someone dies OR the match runs on for a while. With two players who know the course I find that it almost always came down to the "timer" starting the border shrink (unless they changed something for 2p, I haven't played in a while). The same can happen in a bigger game but it's more likely that someone will screw up with 4 players on the screen.
Doesn't make the game any worse but it just makes for longer matches, and because the maps aren't super huge they can get tiresome by the end of a close back and forth race.

Yes, buy it!
Game is designed around a health system and things didn't quite pan out. 1CC means nothing (regenerating health isn't balanced properly, surprise) and the scoring system is unremarkable, so it's pretty much a play a couple times and move on kind of thing. Still, it controls well and looks incredible, so I wouldn't say it's a total waste of a few dollars or anything if you're a big fan of the genre (and already have all the top stuff like Crimzon Clover).
