Hey, gave Grief and the rest of SteamGAF here a shout-out in my GAF retrospective:

Thanks for all your help when I first got into Steam and your generous giveaways that helped me start my backlog library

Why do you need 4 copies of it?
Are you secretly Jasec? (><)

I'm secretly JaseC only when it comes to Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil.
I've bought just about every copy of those games regardless of platform that have released in the West.

 

[ashecitism]

Damn, Global Offensive with another 80k+ peak today. What a turnaround compared to earlier this year. To think if the fandom wouldn't be fragmented...

Are you secretly me?

Last I counted, I have at least 10 copies of Snake Eater alone.

 

[derExperte]

Is Puddle something like the unfinished swan?

Hm, that's not a comparison I would have ever come up with. Swan is a first person exploration game, Puddle is a game where you try to bring a puddle of liquid to the end of a maze by tilting the world left/right.

Thanks. It wasn't really comparison, as it's first time I've heard anything about puddle, it was just a thought, or hope, not sure which

When I think about it... there is no game I went to such lengths for, except Puzzle Quest (><)
Oh and M&M Clash of Heroes. I played every time I bought them though.

That reminds me. What are games you people play when not sure what to play if at all.

Hell yeah. It's great when people come over and go "Why do you have so many copies of the same game".

Puddle started as a project by a few students and that version should still be available for free somewhere. But for 1$ minus card money the full version is basically free anyway...

Son of a bi..., nitroglycerine is no joke.

Has Sir, You Are Being hunted been more than 50% on sale?

First Puddle became surprisingly hard, then I had to mix a cocktail and now I'm cruising around some dude's intestines.

No

Of course, you have been a great help to help me find great deals, letting me know about those bundles and it's great to see such helpful member in this fine Community! Good ol' Turfster!

I like the Zen vibe. I'm in.

Ok, on a side note, I've been proceeding on my Dark Souls journey and soon will start one or two games focused on a more Winter vibe since it's getting colder and colder each day. We are also close to the holidays which means I play some games to fit in said "theme". I wonder if someone do this.

No Salsa mention? Who are you and what have you done with JaseC? O_O

 

[Colin.]

Is Q.U.B.E worth the £1.39 it is going for? I know in terms of first person puzzle games, it wont hold a candle to the likes of Portal. But I do tend to have a soft spot for these puzzle games.

Short and easy but apart from that there's nothing wrong with it. Perfect price.

Apotheon has an interesting style.
Currently 33% off and including a copy of Capsized.

My top "winter" picks would be Skyrim, Lord of the Rings: War in the North, Alan Wake, or Winter Voices.

Preorder is up. Good news for mythology geeks.

Great writeup! The community of GAF is truly a unique place.
Glad I was able to help.

If I remember correctly, Monk loves adventure games during the winter. Could be mistaken though.

Thanks for the feedback. Checked it out ages ago, and seemed interesting, but never showed up in any bundle IIRC. At this price, I wont grumble too much if I don't like it.

Preordered. I was crazy about Greek mythology as a kid, still love reading the stories. So an open world Mount Olympus with that great art style sounds awesome

Good, good, a SpaceShark is cooler that a Salsa one.

 

[Salsa]

I see how it is..

Go back to your 3DS, traitor! =p

Dark Souls is 66% off at Gamersgate (again)

Have you played NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits? I really enjoyed it on WiiWare and it's on pc too.

 

[zkylon]

why does everyone keep outbidding me by .50c at the last minute for that amd gold thingie

like seriously I gotta be up all night if I want to secure one of them.

 

[The_Monk]

Amazing choices. Skyrim will be one for me to play. War in the North I finished on the console last year but I'll replay it soon on PC too. I even have the Artbook and the official soundtrack, glad to see someone mentioning that game. Never heard about Winter Voices! You got me interested in that one.

Batman games with some nice snow are also a good choice.

Why not just use one of the Buy Now options (one that doesn't have crazy "shipping")?
It's what I did. People keep overbidding you, and usually end up paying even more than a buy now would be.

That is eBay in a nutshell. People don't bid on things, they wait until the last minute to try to snipe it.

Yep. They use something like goofbid to bid in the last few seconds, hoping theirs is the last one to go through.

Hey Steam nerds, are there any good PC gaming podcasts?

I'd settle for a good gaming podcast :/.

well obviously Javadots is the exclusion

Since were about 10 days from Winter sale, I thought it would be a nice idea to have a Steam specific GOTY award.

we doing it in this thread? Just asking because we are almost expiring this one

I'm one of those. I tend to use Goofbid with auctions. Since I have a tendency to forget, and remember when the auction is long over. Lost out on some good stuff due to that. I do a quick search for the item first elsewhere, and check the lowest buy it now on eBay. Sometimes, the lowest buy it now can work out around the same, if not less on occasion. Those last minute bidders can get crazy.

Do games like Final Fantasy VII and VIII count? They were released on Steam in 2013 but are just re-releases of old games that have been available on PC for years. Same goes for all the Topware stuff that was recently re-released.

 

[zkylon]

because they all cost like twice what I wish I was paying

Steam GOTY Award.

How voting works:

- Vote for up to 5 games that have come out in 2013 on Steam (Early Access games count)
- Games that are listed higher in poll receive more points, total tally will be added up after this thread closes.
- Feel free to give reasons or just post a list of your top 5 games on Steam for this year.

is there a list of "nominees" somewhere?

 

[The_Monk]

MRORANGE this year I've been mostly catching up with older titles, I'm going to see what games I've finished that are only from 2013 but I'm not sure if I can fill 5 titles from 2013.

But I'll be sure to vote, thanks for making this good sir.

 

[drizzle]

I registered on Bundle Bandits to receive an email when the site went live. And I got it. And everybody's email is on the CC: field.

Then I quickly received another email, with everybody's email on the BCC: field, including mine.

So now everybody has a list of every email registered on that site. Great!

Yeah, I see why not.

So a new thread then I guess? I don't want it to conflict with the other major voting thread.

 

[Turfster]

Well, you can always try to sell the 1/2 extra games you got from the silver/gold card to soften the blow. I'll admit I paid less, but 20$ isn't all that much, surely?

 

[Acccent]

Just noticed my one year GAF anniversary was back in July! Been a great year with you guys!

You've only been here for a year?

 

[Aaron]

So a new thread then I guess? I don't want it to conflict with the other major voting thread.

If you don't this thread will become unreadable. It's too active to have a side activity going on inside it.

 

[Jawmuncher]

So as long as they're on Steam it can be picked?
Was about to make a list then realized I didn't play much steam exclusives.
