Check the op. usually midnight pst

Only saw the date

Bleh so like in 16 hours!
So close but yet so far :<

 

[spindoctor]

Sounds interesting but I'm not sure how well the GTA games play on those platforms. Just to clarify, I've played the game multiples times on PS2 but I'd like to have it on PC.

Performance is fine on powerful devices. Touch controls are another matter altogether. However at least on Android you can pair a Dualshock 3 and play with that if you want to. In any case, I only mentioned it because you said you were itching to buy it . Apparently the game was removed from Steam due to music licensing issues and I'd imagine Rockstar would get it back on the store once they had resolved that.

Should I expect a better deal for Max Payne 3 on Steam?

 

[Pagusas]

Amazon has Skyrim on sale for $25 for every system (including pc)
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004HYIAPM/?tag=neogaf0e-20

I've been playing the 360 version and really loved the limited experience I had with the PC version, well worth it!

Also it links right into steam

 

[Prophane33]

On sale at Amazon now:
COD: MW2 for PC DD is $9.99 (bought)
COD: BLOPS PC DD is $19.99 (waiting for better deal on Steam - hopefully)

That's the lowest they have gone for on Amazon -- technically, tied for the lowest since they did the same thing in the summer; regardless, Steam has never had them for that price or lower (AFAIR). Activision HATE giving discounts on COD, so it's unlikely you'll ever see a sub-9.99 post COD:MW game. Heck, I'm considering buying COD:BLOPS II as soon as it's less than 59 becuase I know it's going to be two years before it's ever discounted less than 40 or so.

 

[thecouncil]

What would you do?

Borderlands 2 on PC by yourself for $20

Or

Borderlands 2 for 360 with 1 or 2 friends playing once a week, at best... for $25

Is it worth it to play friends if the trade off is worse graphics and larger spans of time between sessions?

Hmmm...

 

[Snuggles]

Should I expect a better deal for Max Payne 3 on Steam?

Unless it gets a price drop between now and a potential Steam sale daily, probably not. The MP3 Complete deal on Amazon is a 78% discount, and I wouldn't expect a featured Steam deal to exceed 75% off. The one catch is that the Compelete edition is priced higher then the standard, so if the standard is 75% off on Steam it could be $15 instead of $20.

But yeah, just fucking buy it.

 

[RionaaM]

Oh crap, I didn't notice that the Bioshock pack was only $5, are these games still worth playing through (never have played BS1 or 2)

I played the first one for 2 hours and completely hated the gameplay and how the shooting feels. The atmosphere is excellent, however.

Should I expect a better deal for Max Payne 3 on Steam?

I bought the base game sans DLC for $30, and it was totally worth it. For 10 bucks less you'll also be getting the Season Pass, so there's no way you can lose. This is how a TPS should play like, unskippable cutscenes or not.

You will make new friends with GAF. Go with better graphics and cheaper price.

Why would you need to play by yourself? Add some gaffers Lots of us play the game on steam. Also the PC versions looks and plays amazing. It's a proper PC game.

Oh. Yeah. Gaffers. Hadn't thought of that. Good point. Cool.

Really tempted by Max Payne 3... Might not see a better deal on it this year.

Retail box but still works. Pretty good deal if you didn't get it to for $10 at Toys R Us, lol

PC--where is this deal from, I thought it was going to be $30 on Amazon?

 

[Wario64]

A month ago, but it was YMMV/hard to find. Toys R Us sold like all their major PC games for $10 including Diablo 3, lol

 

[BadAss2961]

Yeah, you will. Christmas.

They refuse to drop the price though... Fuck it, bought.

If I enter the season pass code in Steam (Max Payne 3), I guess it will automatically download all that content on top of the base game? I'm asking because I don't think I want to bother downloading all that extra stuff right now. The base game is huge enough already.

 

[Decado]

Really tempted by Max Payne 3... Might not see a better deal on it this year.

I'm surprised it is this high, TBH. The retail game for consoles regularly drops to $20...even in Canada :0

 

[Wario64]

Max Payne 3 is $15 on Steam

 

[BadAss2961]

Max Payne 3 is $15 on Steam

Of course, lol.

Fuck my life.

 

[Binabik15]

Max Payne 3, yay or nay at 15?

I heard the cutscenes are annoying and unskippable.

 

[Paches]

Looks like Dishonored Amazon sale is up already.

 

[Mangotron]

So do all the deals for the day go up at midnight? I really want to jump on NFS:MW and the Crysis pack.

midnight PT usually, give or take hour(s) depending if Amazon is slacking

 

[GlenChivas]

I posted this in the wrong Amazon thread so I figured I'd post it here anyways.

Not sure if anyone else has seen this but Gamefly is having their own PC sale tomorrow that features a lot of the same line up and prices as Amazon's. However, Gamefly also let's you stack a 20% discount.

yah, i was wrong. i was thinking of another game. $30 is the best ive seen. sorry.

They weren't annoying to me, and the game is great. So a big yay.

 

[Wario64]

Max Payne 3 without season pass for $15 on Amazon, matching Steam's deal

Also, MP3 rox. One of my faves this year

Is that hotline Miami steam works? It will be like 6$ not bad

 

[GlenChivas]

Yes it is. Not sure about a lot of the other titles since Gamefly recently launched their own DD app. You can check the titles and they'll let you know if they require Steam. I'm really just planning to pick up the BF3 Premium Edition and I know that's going to go through Origin. Can't beat all that content for $24.

The Bioshock pack had $5 when I bought it. The credit doesn't start till 1/13 though.

Hey Civ IV fans, do I dabble with the vanilla game or jump into a Beyond the Sword campaign? Already went through the tutorial game.

 

[DSmalls84]

Is Borderlands 2 PC download confirmed for sale tomorrow? Was hoping to get it for $30 or less.

 

[Heysoos]

What time do Friday's deals start? Hoping to get Dark Souls for the PC.

 

[oipic]

Hey Civ IV fans, do I dabble with the vanilla game or jump into a Beyond the Sword campaign? Already went through the tutorial game.

I'd recommend going straight to BtS, and not committing any time to the vanilla game - other than to highlight the differences between the two, I don't think you'll gain much from vanilla. CivIV really hit its stride with the BtS expansion, and introduced some mechanics that made it a complete experience.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Spent more than I'd like so far:

- Bioshock Dual Pack
- Sega Dreamcast pack
- Binary Domain
- Walking Dead

My PC backlog is almost as bad as my Vita backlog now...

 

[Shaneus]

The Dreamcast pack only had the one game on Steam, yes? I assume that the others are DDL straight from Amazon? It's back on sale, BTW.

Jet Set Radio, yes. Updated list of Steam keys only & their links.

 

[Karram]

I have a non-Steam install of Max Payne 3. I want to buy the season pass, but I can't help but notice that there are 2 different versions of them on Amazon. One is cheaper than the other. Here are the links:

http://www.amazon.com/Max-Payne-Season-Pass-Download/dp/B00A9XQ868/ref=sr_1_3?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1353641080&sr=1-3&keywords=max+payne+3+season+pass

Will the Steam DRM one work with my non-steam Max Payne install ?

 

[ElyrionX]

Is there a Dishonored DD deal?

 

[shintoki]

Is there a Dishonored DD deal?

GMG has it for 22.50 currently. And if you have IGN discount, I think GG's is cheaper.

Dumb question but how exactly do digital download Amazon games that are redeemable on Steam work? Let's say I buy COD BLOPS. I download it and then what? How do I get it installed and working in Steam?

 

[KarmaCow]

Usually if a game is Steamworks like BLOPS2, you just input the code into Steam and it's added to your library just like if you bought it directly on Steam.

In your amazon "Games and Software Library", games with Steam codes will provide the codes under the game title. It might say "Product Code", but you just take that and enter it into the Steam client directly.
