I loved 1 too. I didn't hate 2 but it was certainly very disappointing.
3 was just straight up garbage. Played it once and cant ever touch it again. I played the others multiple times.

I certainly enjoyed them in decreasing order but I still liked 3. It certainly wasn't what it was billed to be in terms of ambition, but it was an enjoyable enough adventure game, a genre that is sadly underrepresented.
What Molyneux game ever lives up to it's hype?

So disappointed with Steam sales, that I'm actually playing games. =/
I'd think people were more down to earth with II and III, but given the reactions THOSE got I guess even that wasn't a success.
Gaben doing you a favor
Oh no. We want to buy games, not play them!

It comes with virtual in-game items.

If anyone needs DOTA send me a pm. I have 4 passes. No need to pay for that.
I kind of feel the same way due to two reasons. Most of the games that interest me from years past I already have - we're talking all the creme of the crop. And second, my backlog is huge as I haven't even completed 25% of my steam games. The first reason I could overcome easily with newer games, but when combined with reason number two, I just can't justify dropping $30 for Skyrim or $37 for Far Cry 3 when I have 100+ games to finish. The situation is so bad I could stop buying games for the next couple of years, and I still wouldn't be done with all my backlog.

It's free, but in closed beta. You can pay for early access along with some store items, or you can get somebody to send you a beta invite (which doesn't come with items).
I liked Fable 1 a lot, but 2/3 were pretty average. So you're not entirely alone.
Fable 1 was a fresh gameplay experience. The game felt like it had rich environments and lore at the time. But 2/3 seemed to devolve in key areas and add a bunch of sloppy grind (houses, user interface, and I think potions/magic got dumbed down) and the lore was repeated. Feels like how JRPGs kind of devolved since the mid/late 1990s while everything else got better. Then again Mass Effect and Dragon Age did the same thing, so maybe I'm just old and bitter.
So is there any reason why the mouse doesn't work right every time I start up San Andreas? I have to fiddle with the settings, which don't reset or anything like that, and sometimes that just randomly makes it work but the last time I tried nothing could get it to work.
The problems it has is it won't control the camera at all and on the menus I can move it around but it won't click anything. I have to use the enter key to click on stuff in the menus.

I'm glad Thief won the poll.
Knowing our luck Prince of Persia would've just been that new one, not the collection. Freedom Force would've been about as good as Thief for winning I'd think, but I favor Thief so I voted for that.
Thanks!

Every copy of Rage comes with the Sewers DLC. It was basically an Online Pass for the console versions, to discourage people from buying pre-owned copies at Gamestop.

It was only the 2008 release. I would've been surprised if it had won; I think it used up most of its demands when it was a Daily Deal. I've never played Thief so I voted for that. I played Freedom Force back in the day and I don't think it has as much lasting appeal.
Sometimes we see other games get dragged in, or people vote in with that hope. I don't think I've been seeing that this sale, at the least when Deponia went on sale it didn't bring the other Daedalic games with it, and I know people voted for that (and failed) in hope of that.

Come on New Vegas DLC. Give it to me Based Garry!
My sentiments too. I love Fable 1 (I can still play it now and really enjoy it.) I wasn't hyped for it though so I'm sure that helped in some way. I grew tired of Fable 2 after a while and didn't bother finishing it. And Fable 3 is depressingly bad.

LOL wut happened to steams store page
Despite the change of page, thief Gold deal is up,75% off Thief Gold (not off the collection or any of the other games of the franchise)
Gabe giveth, and Gabe taketh away.
I know there's been a lot of complaining about the sales, but I think that's because a lot of us have been through several Steam sales and thus have a lot of under the radar titles. Also, Amazon and GMG have been absolutely crazy with their sales.
