What's funny is the Bulletstorm and Sim's price cut will go mostly unnoticed. But if they would have ran it as a sale they would be selling like crazy. Just the way Steam customers are.

Guys, you know there is a Steam gifting thread, right?

€50 for me. I guess I'll see if someone can gift me the game when I have more money.

I would have bought bulletstorm for that price if it was during the summer sale. A measly 33% cut or something like that would have made it $20.

But now my money is tied up into 15 billion games this Fall. Maybe if they wise up and give it a minimum 50% cut on the winter sale I'll get it.

Is it too soon to start a countdown for the Xmas sale? We're just over 3 months away.

I started a new, intense job JUST after the summer sale, too. I managed to blow through Darksiders but haven't even touched the other 99 games I bought :( I promised myself I would never join the Steam hoarders club and yet... here I am. At least I have a good reason.

Welcome to our not so exclusive club.
 
Just made a bet with a friend.

He says Dota 2 will be 30€. I say it will be F2P.

If he wins, I'll buy him the pre-order. If I win, he'll buy me 25€ worth of heroes, items, skins etc.

I feel like Stump now.

What if it costs money but not that much?

Damn it, Bulletstorm is top of my wish list for games I'm waiting for a sale on..

I'm still torn over Hot Persuit. I suspect I'll regret not buying that the moment it drops off sale.

I'll just pay the pre-order. If it costs more than 30€ I'll give him 25€ for the game.

Edit: I'm 99.99999% sure that I'll win this bet so even if I lose, I'll be happy that I wasn't struck down by lightning.

Quick question about From Dust. Girlfriend purchased it for her Laptop without reading too deep into the qualifications, turns out From Dust doesn't like Intel HD Graphics... she's contacted support and everything and hopefully will get her money back, just wondering if there is any info on other people getting refunds in this situation? Also if Ubisoft has any plans to release a patch making the game playable?

Probably very LTTP on this, but you know how it is.

Doubtful in that case. But had she complained about the always-on DRM, I think she could've. Probably too late for that now.

There was a Halloween sale (sorta) last year though
Kind of sad how much we look forward to the sales, heh.

I'm hoping there is a 20$ price drop on Alice before it, and we get ourselves a nice 50-66% off sale for it. Wouldn't mind the same for Dead Island here, since hopefully by then it will all be patched up.

Nah, it's not an Origin-required title and EA will never give it DLC so you don't need to worry about that really.

But it's still an awesome game though. I don't regret paying full price for it.

Is Steam broken for anyone? Pages are loading slowly, and I just tried buy the daily deal and got rejected, saying my bank declined it o_O. I've spent tons of money on Steam with zero issues but $3.33 is suddenly a red flag for my bank lol.

Guess it was Steam, deleted .blob, and the store was still acting funny, not showing wishlists or cart for a bit.
