Man, Recettear is super addictive.

I might snatch this up if I can get some money in my online shopping account before the deal ends tomorrow, I've always wanted a game where I run an item shops.

 

[BloodySinner]

how is day of defeat:source? is there an active community that's friendly towards new players?

It's always active. Don't let the price fool you. :/

 

[markot]

I really want AC2. But UbiDRM >_< So lame stupid Frenchies!

 

[Yeef]

Picked up Bully and Assassin's Creed 2. Gifted Recettear.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Not much I'm interested in today, except maybe Bully but I don't have much of an idea about it :lol

Bully is the best open world game ever made. Excellent level design, a wide variety of missions and activities, good difficulty curve, KILLER bass-heavy music, really memorable town area, not as much playtime as never-enders like San Andreas but more than most games, and a really funny cheeky humour to it. A++++++++ would recommend again and again.

How do I reset my age restriction thing for entering certain pages? I accidentally put the wrong date 2-3 days ago and still cant actually go into those pages :lol

You can just wait a few years.

sorry, couldn't resist

What's the word on AvP? I know it has nice graphics and you get to play as/against aliens/predators which is a huge + in my book, but how stinky is the gameplay for $5?

Huh...Well looks like Bully just shot way up on my playlist.

Haven't played it, but I've heard it is good but short.

THIS 100 times over. I have so many nostalgic memories of Bully and the point in time when I first played it.

The changing of seasons and holiday appropriate decor around the school was one of my favorite things and helped create an amazing atmosphere. The characters are classic, the humor is spot on, and it's very fun.

I'm still puzzled as to why it still to this day seems so low key and underrated.

As I mentioned earlier, I WILL be double dipping. I can't wait to see what it looks like on my rig.

Its the kind of game I think the term 'janky' was invented for. Everything just feels a little bit off. If the sound of the motion sensor, pulse rifle and predator lock-on bring waves of nostalgia then it is probably worth $5, otherwise leave well alone.

End the Steam process and then just start up Steam again

 

[speculawyer]

Credit card wont let me buy....whyyyyy!

Yeah lock-outs happen a lot with Steam. Put in a request to support to resolve the issue. Don't do a charge back.


Advice: Buy a $100 (or $50) for your steam wallet on your credit card. Then make purchases off that. That way you don't have this endless stream of little $2, $10, $9.99, $4.99 purchases from Steam on your credit card that may cause your credit card company to panic and start declining.

 

[Corky]

is it theoretically possible to use and purchase stuff of from store.steampowered on an iphone/ipad/ipodtouch?

 

[kanugo]

RailWorks 2

Glad to see I wasn't the only one.

 

[speculawyer]

Why don't you try and tell us.

 

[Ivan A Nguyen]

If you use the Teamviewer app or some other desktop viewing software. Thats just about it.

 

[Corky]

Why don't you try and tell us.

I'm trying, but my wi-fi is soooo bad that I can't even log into the page.

 

[LCfiner]

is it theoretically possible to use and purchase stuff of from store.steampowered on an iphone/ipad/ipodtouch?

Theoretically, sure.

I bought all this stuff on safari for Mac, not in the steam web browser.

Steam doesn't use flash for the purchase pages so I don't see why not.

Edit. No need to be theoretical. I just bought bully on my iPad and it worked as expected

 

[Archaon]

If you use the Teamviewer app or some other desktop viewing software. Thats just about it.

I don't know about that, I buy games from a laptop that doesn't have Steam installed through Firefox and it works fine. The iOS Mozilla browser likely functions the same, I would think.

 

[Bii]

is it theoretically possible to use and purchase stuff of from store.steampowered on an iphone/ipad/ipodtouch?

Yes, it works. I actually did this during Steam's Halloween sale.

Edit: I did this on my iPhone.

 

[Corky]

yeah guys, just bought an item via my ipod touch. Good news for when I'm idling at the airport xD

 

[Drkirby]

You spent all your money. We will have to cut up your card now. Please insert it into the Floppy Disk Drive to begin the shredding process.

 

[Instro]

Nothing for me today, feels good man.

 

[legend166]

If Assassin's Creed II didn't have that DRM I'd buy it right now. But, alas.

Is there any way, uh, around it? Is that not allowed to be discussed?

If you bought it, it's fine to acknnowledge ways around, but don't go posting links.

The Ubi DRM got cracked fairly quickly and once the first game was down, all new releases have followed suit in a matter of days.

either way, it's enough of a pain in the ass that I'd rather not even bother buying ACII. It's not all that good anyway.

Can that be applied to the steam version, like could I put it on Prince of Persia if I started having problems?

 

[Stallion Free]

either way, it's enough of a pain in the ass that I'd rather not even bother buying ACII. It's not all that good anyway.

Idk, I'm about two hours in and loving it and I hear it only gets better. Tons of people in the OT have called it a massively improved sequel and one of their favorite games of last year.

 

[Stallion Free]

Idk, I assume so, but before you go on a rampage wiping it out see if the DRM even gives you any issues first.

I have played two games to completion with the DRM forced upon me and I haven't had any issues so I never bothered with the crack. I'm not going to put the effort in unless it's a necessity.

Completely agree. I played it on the 360 shortly after GTAIV and I kept thinking 'why didn't GTA have this? or this?' I loved the rpg-lite things, the combat was great... it was just a great game.

Fuck it I'm buying it on Steam, the only 360 game I have 1000/1000 on but it's so, so good.

Got the Witcher yesterday too.

 

[Corky]

yea that's for sure, AC II really improves on pretty much everything compared to the first game.

 

[Deleted member 30609]

I wish I could buy Bully.

 

[kamspy]

I have Splinter Cell Conviction and PoP Forgotten Sands and they work fine legit or cracked.

 

[WEGGLES]

:lol

Couldn't not buy the CN add-on. Those trains drive by my house every day.

 

[stuminus3]

Oh, I didnt realise ACII had two editions, I just added it to my cart from the front page and it choose the cheapest one. Oh well.

 

[Deleted member 30609]

is it possible to gift Bully to a Steam account who can't buy it locally?

 

[legend166]

Is Bully worth getting if I've played it on the PS2?

 

[trinest]

Whats the price for the Spore complete pack in America? Here it is $20. I played the original game to the final level and though the game had its charm but was quite boring at some stages. Wouldn't mind picking it up if its a resonable price. $20 is alright- but I can tell from the OP that just the game alone is 7.50 instead of 10, which means the pack might be alot cheaper. It's something I might consider playing again.

Otherwise besides that nothing else really interesting this sale. Just Cause 2 I bought from the Treasure Hut. The COD there isn't the one I like/wanted to pick up and is also $10 more in my region.

 

[legend166]

is it possible to gift Bully to a Steam account who can't buy it locally?

Yep, it would be.

 

[DualShadow]

We can't get Bully in Aus?

 

[trinest]

Yep, it would be.

I'd be in on that even though I finished it on the Wii. What other Rock Star games are there on the sale around that price in America? Like in the GTA trilliogy?

 

[Jokey665]

Okay. I haven't bought anything today and the only thing I'm really even considering is Railworks (already have just cause and recettear).

What I want to know is: What the hell is Railworks, anyway? I just know it's a train sim and it gets talked about so much I'm curious and that makes me kind of want to buy it. :lol

You ever play with a model train set and wish you could sit inside the engine too? That's Railworks.

 

[Blast Processing]

I bought a bunch on Monday, then nothing yesterday, but I think I'm going to have to pick up the Spore base game for $7.50. I'm too curious about it, and the price has stayed at $30 forever, now.
