I want if no one already asked.

Sending you a PM now

 

[SteveWinwood]

I think card prices will go up for an hour or so, and then crash lower than it ever has.

It's a buyer's market.

Thank you.

 

[SteveWinwood]

It's a buyer's market.

Give things out for free and then try to sell them and this sort of happens.

 

[morningbus]

So anyone know whats going to happen with the trading cards coming out of beta is there like a big red button or something lol

Oh, there's a button:

 

[Dio Brando]

BFG is probably your next best choice in terms of price.

The original is actually the definitive version, unless something has changed within the mod community.

I did a little bit of research, and it seems Sikkmod still isn't compatible with BFG. The modder can't find a way to make it work.

Apparently they added in pieces of the iDTech 5 engine, which made the old mods completely incompatible with BFG.

Oh well, i think i can't wait a bit longer for a Dishonored deal on steam... although i doubt it's going to get a 75% discount anytime soon.

I noted earlier in the thread that Hunted and Brink are worth snapping up if you're interested, as the former hasn't been cheaper than $12 and the latter hasn't been under $10 for 18 months now. Of the two, I'd opt for Hunted seeing as Brink is MP-focused with a dead community; neither are particularly good games, though.

 

[reddmyst]

I missed the $9.99 sale for borderlands 2, damn it! I hope it'll be on for the steam summer sale.

Thanks for posting the dishonored sale!

Brink is going to be $5 in the summer sale. I'd bet on it.
Hunted ... maybe $10?

 

[MMBosstones86]

Daily : DLC Quest 50%

 

[Blablurn]

DLC Quest is Deal of the Day with 50% off.

 

[Tomodachi]

What happened to La Mulana's deal? Could it be...?

 

[Deques]

Daily : DLC Quest 50%

Fun game, much recommended

 

[Addnan]

ITS HAPPENING

 

[phantomspiker]

What happened to La Mulana's deal? Could it be...?

It's on sale for 9.74 USD. They are calling it an anniversary sale.

 

[Vecks]

What happened to La Mulana's deal? Could it be...?

It's up. It's just not the daily deal.

 

[Brick]

ITS HAPPENING

Hmmm? Doesn't look like anything is happening yet, except for DLC quest being half off.

 

[Tomodachi]

It's on sale for 9.74 USD.

It's up. It's just not the daily deal.

Well, the thrill was nice for a minute there

 

[Addnan]

I guess not. The thing is on sale

 

[Grief.exe]

Oh well, i think i can't wait a bit longer for a Dishonored deal on steam... although i doubt it's going to get a 75% discount anytime soon.

Dishonored is Steamworks, so one of the alternative retailers will probably offer it for $7.50 or less during the Summer sale.

 

[spindoctor]

I missed the $9.99 sale for borderlands 2, damn it! I hope it'll be on for the steam summer sale.

Still available at that price on Getgamesgo - http://getgamesgo.com/category/borderlands-sale

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

Where is the sale on RE: Revelations dammit!!!!

I refuse to pay full price for that, but I would still like to give it a shot.

You're going to be waiting a while. They haven't discounted Resi 6 on steam yet.

 

[DRG]

Are the new Profiles launching today too or just the Trading Cards?

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Cards were tied to the profiles so I assume both.

In less than an hour.

 

[MMBosstones86]

ITS HAPPENING

disappointment? yes, yes it is.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

So. The question is.

Will we get 5 new games, because its just one update?
Will we get 10 new games, since it will be only once this week?
Or will we get more, since it will launch for everyone?

 

[JaseC]

Brink is going to be $5 in the summer sale. I'd bet on it.
Hunted ... maybe $10?

Both are equally likely: Brink was last $5 in 2011 and the same is true of Hunted at $10 (I misread its price history earlier ). Unlike Brink, though, Hunted has never seen anything more than a general sale discount -- it's the red-headed stepchild of Bethesda's catalogue.

 

[legacyzero]

Does GAF like DLC Quest? I'm suddenly VERY interested in it.

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Or will we get more, since it will launch for everyone?

Well I could easily seem them adding the cards for their own games: Episode 1/2, L4D, Portal 1, CS 1.6, CS:S, etc.

So that's a handful right there.

This was supposed to be a large update, the only thing we know is it will be >5 games.

 

[JaseC]

You're going to be waiting a while. They haven't discounted Resi 6 on steam yet.

RE6 is on sale over at Nuuvem, though, so there's that! (BR$40 is roughly USD$18.20.)

I'm expecting more than 10

Those would be redundant.

Half-Life is an example. The main characters stayed the same throughout the episodes, how do you create something visually distinct for both the badge and the cards? Then you have to consider emoticons and backgrounds as well.

 

[PriitV]

It's worth the price. Fun little game.

 

[JaseC]

I hope for Valve's sake it's not 13, otherwise some crazy people will link the number back to PC Gamer's Valve teaser and assume something Half-Life 3 related is afoot.

 

[Emerson]

DLC Quest daily. Clearly winding down and saving good deals for summer sale.

EDIT:

Magic 2014 just came out. Not really sure, is that likely to have any kind of discount during the sale?

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Not all the cards are based on characters, like "Destruction" from Portal 2. There's plenty of backgrounds, symbols, or objects they could use, and you could easily think of 100+ images to use as a wallpaper from any game.

 

[MMBosstones86]

people still buying my cards...awesome.

I'm guessing the days of making some decent coin on these is gone in 30 minutes. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

Hope Might & Magic Heroes VI is on sale. I enjoyed the demo.

Well supply will increase, but so will demand. Regular cards will probably get even cheaper, but I think foils may go up in price.
