That tickets thing actually seems pretty cool. Play games, get tickets, redeem for more games!

 

[Exuro]

Oh man the prize thing is cool. Only care for TF2 and Portal 2 items though.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Oh god. This ticket system. TIME TO ACTUALLY PLAY STEAM GAMES.

Fucking THIS.

 

[Stumpokapow]

yo technomancer hurry up

 

[Hixx]

What's up with Borderlands btw? Its in the daily deal section but it's £30...

Oh sweet the Homefront map pack is available via prizes.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Any Russia-GAF want to hook me up with a gifted copy of Witcher 2 then? How much is that in GBP (£)?

I can Paypal or gift games.

For new page, since it's moving so fast.

 

[Dog Problems]

I bought retribution for full price less than a week ago. Why steam, why do you hurt me so. Oh well, it was worth it.

Haha, I just pre-ordered the new edition of Street Fighter 4 a few days ago at $40. Not it's almost $14 less. :-(

 

[1-D_FTW]

Wow. Valve seems to have outdone themselves.

 

[Buttonbasher]

That tickets thing actually seems pretty cool. Play games, get tickets, redeem for more games!

DLC for games it looks like.

Also GET BACK TO THE FUTURE.

 

[Valhalla]

MY pages wont load! FUCK YOU GUYS GIVE ME STEAM SUMMER STRAIGHT INTO MY ANUS

 

[Hamster0]

Is bloodlines that great of a game?

 

[Acerac]

Ooh, back to the future and bit trip runner.

I've heard great things about both. Worth diving in?

I'd get borderlands but it seems to be full price...

 

[Zerokku]

If I'm not mistaken, not a single EA game is on sale.

Why am I not surprised?

 

[Blizzard]

Treasure hunt 2.0! Are these limited time only DLC, or maybe they'll be sold later, or what? Lots of DLC with no way to buy it? D:

*edit* Also, parts of my store are in Spanish, lol.

 

[Nekrono]

So what exactly is this Prize Booth?

 

[The_Player]

I can Paypal

No, you can't. Paypal won't let you transfer money to Russia. Sad but true.

 

[mattiewheels]

If I'm not mistaken, not a single EA game is on sale.

Why am I not surprised?

Origin.com

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

Oops, too late.

It was £5 though, would you say it's worth 1/5th of what you paid? My brother seemed to enjoy it on 360, I've been interested in it for a while so thought this price was too good to miss.

My experience was not great. The first time I played it, things weren't soooo bad but I decided to wait for patches cos things were definitely a bit wobbly. Several months passed and I went back to it. I think it was worse than before. Some asshole decided it'd be good to constantly ram me, lulz griefing. Started driving around and it looked terrible with everything maxed and the framerate was poor. When the Enterprise started beaming out the other cars on the road, I gave up. I checked the forums which were flowing with rage against Atari and wrote it off as a loss. Good times.

For £5 I wouldn't be anywhere near as pissed off, I'd probably treat it as a joke purchase. Fucking pre-orders, how do they work?

 

[Dog Problems]

Is bloodlines that great of a game?

YES!

 

[Luigi87]

The Prize Booth..

...Those sons of!!
Damn them!

 

[Sysgen]

Need some help here. What does DIE ANGEBOT ... mean?

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Also of note, since I got the page to load:

With the Prize Booth, some people will win the Grand Prize of getting the top 10 games on their wishlist for FREE.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Ooh, back to the future and bit trip runner.

I've heard great things about both. Worth diving in?

I'd get borderlands but it seems to be full price...

Yes on Both

 

[Volcynika]

If I'm not mistaken, not a single EA game is on sale.

Why am I not surprised?

They are via packs, but individually looks like a no-go for the most part.

 

[amdnv]

Alright. Who the hell broke it?

 

[Tenck]

Wow at the Valve complete pack deal.

 

[The Elite]

I had some German in mine and Borderlands wasn't even discounted. The fuck is going on Valve?

 

[Forkball]

Bit Trip Runner bought. The ticket bonus was a nice surprise.

 

[Eusis]

If I'm not mistaken, not a single EA game is on sale.

Why am I not surprised?

There's bundles they're part of, but not on sale individually.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Why is Borderlands showing under Daily Deals? It has no discount and still costs 50 euros.

 

[coopolon]

For awhile I thought The Witcher 2 33% off was only the week long deal and it was going to get an even deeper daily deal discount and I was kicking myself for having gotten it on Direct2Drive two weeks ago for $33. But really this is as cheap as it's going to go so it's all good! Plus my version has no DRM, but also has no achievements.

 

[Grimm Fandango]

So what exactly is this Prize Booth?

Earn tickets by completing the objectives for the day, use 3 tickets to get DLC for certain games.

 

[Zerokku]

They are via packs, but individually looks like a no-go for the most part.

Was kind of wanting to pick up Bulletstorm so

 

[Erudite]

Treasure hunt 2.0! Are these limited time only DLC, or maybe they'll be sold later, or what? Lots of DLC with no way to buy it? D:

Some seem to be limited, there are others, like the Defense Grid DLC maps, that were around before.

 

[MooMoo]

So for the prize booth, I understand the activities change every day, but do the prizes change every day too? Or are those set in stone?

 

[parasight]

No Bit Trip bundle

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

I already have Toki Tori, so I think I'll get Bit.Trip.Beat for dem tickets.

 

[Princess Skittles]

Holy crap.

 

[Gandie]

I guess, EA doesn't want my money. Oh well.

 

[cicero]

I liked the Holiday sweepstakes where I had the extremely remote chance of winning free games by doing in-game achievements for games that were put on sale.

Press Release "STEAM SUMMER SALE ON NOW":

Dear Everyone:
Me, Syl, and Tappet arrived okay at Steam Summer Camp today. A lot of our friends are here too. The folks we left back at Valve--who all got pink-eye and couldn't go--said they'd put up the pictures from camp that we send them (after they're done posting the loads of Summer Camp daily sales and publisher packs on Steam each day). The first one (with our new pals Marty and Max) is there now. This morning, Syl drove Marty's car. Tappet had to work the pedals, but we got it up to 87 miles an hour on the dirt! We think we can get it to go faster tonight.
The counselors have planned a bunch of camp activities each day. Like playing games gets you special Steam Summer Camp Achievements. Then they say you get tickets for each Achievement you earn. Big whoop, right?!? But, guess what? There's a Prize Booth where you can trade your tickets for cool stuff. I made the banner on the booth!
At the end of camp, they're giving away some really big prizes: one-hundred campers get the top ten games on their Wishlist! They were going to have field day races for prizes, but not all of us have legs.
Gotta go.
Sir Roderick Bodkin & Syl & Tappet.

 

[Eusis]

I had some German in mine and Borderlands wasn't even discounted. The fuck is going on Valve?

The result of everyone spamming reload!

 

[IrishNinja]

ok so if witcher 2 is a daily, it likely wont get cheaper than that, yeah? sad we cant paypal to russia, but again, russia-GAF: if you want to trade for a $14 game, hit me up!

 

[Corky]

What is prize booth?

 

[drizzle]

I hope the ticket offers are the same every day. I have a couple things I want.

 

[Hamster0]

Do the prize booth prizes change everyday or is it always constant?

i want those steampunk characters for KF

 

[Gamejunky]

Still wondering how to get keys to open these crates in TF2

 

[1-D_FTW]

Was kind of wanting to pick up Bulletstorm so

Having MoH as a daily deal @ 66 off bodes well for the other high profile EA games. 10 dollars isn't out of the question.

 

[Of All Trades]

There's bundles they're part of, but not on sale individually.

Medal of Honor is a daily deal.

 

[Polk]

If I'm not mistaken, not a single EA game is on sale.

Why am I not surprised?

MOH is daily deal 66% off ?
