Do CoD games tend to go on sale often? I'm from the UK but it's much cheaper to get Black Ops off Amazon.com for £21 than to pay £39 for it here.
Will it go cheaper you reckon?
(Also, 99% of the time, it's cheaper to buy from the US amazon store for UK'ers.)

You know your Steam situation is bad when you don't even know about some basic features your games have; I already own most of the stuff you mentioned :lol
Aquaria has no multiplayer though but thanks anyway

Driver San Francisco is the Daily Deal, 75% off. I doubt it'll be cheaper during the Summer Sale.
Ah, that always looked interesting. Thanks!
Yeah, I'll look into these, thanks. I'd really like to know why Valve doesn't just patch the function in without going through all of this.
Apparently it's pretty awesome. I think i'll bu... nahh i'll wait for summer sale.

Damn i really want Driver, but I'm broke. It'll probably go on sale again during the summer sale anyway.
The concept is fucking ridiculous. If you can get past that, the actual gameplay is the best of the series. Being able to switch to different cars (ANY CAR) on the fly gives you a brand new approach on how to handle the games various mission types.
For instance: Want to change to a car in the oncoming lane about a quarter mile out to take out the person you're chasing head on?

Oh shit, that's... that's a good price.
It's still GFWL. I believe you can play with an offline account, but you still need that overlay.

Well, hopefully they do when big screen mode comes out.
75%... I don´t know if I should buy it now or wait for the summer sale

Looking pretty good.
I'm gonna say AT LEAST 50%

It was on sale before but nothing ridiculous like 50-75% off.

It's been on sale 4 times on Steam, always around $40 so I think it'll be at least that during the summer sale. Why not wait for the GOTY version anyway?
I am weak
GOTY probably won't come out until some time next year I would imagine asuming theres more than 1 DLC (?)Thanks for answering everyone, really hoping it goes 50%, 75% would be a insta-buy. My budget for this sale is pretty low, at the moment budget is whatever I can make from Diablo, which is £25 right now.

3rd-party DRM: Ubisoft Online Service Platform.
So have these been reliable since Winter Holiday when they went down for days with no communication from Ubisoft?

We'll probably see at least two "expansions" by the time we get a GOTY edition I think. So yeah, next year :lolI am weak

Have you tried changing your download region and restarting Steam?
So week ago (liek when Civ5 got workshop) it wanted to download 3GB of data. I was like hell no I amg onna play me some D3 (or any online game). For that amoutn of data..I normally pause it while playing. Well I did. Than I tried to restart it and it wouldn't.
Fast forward to like today and this is what I see now? Take now the computer has been off for like 24 hours and I just booted up to it and see this.

Hm, you need to log in to start Driver. I can wait until they patch it out.
So are we, my friend.

I dunno. Ubi has been super stingy with Driver: San Fran. It's been on sale for $20 like 5 times.
Licensed cars I assume (none of that Burnout-esque made-up cars that are clearly based on real world ones)?
Driver San Francisco is the Daily Deal, 75% off.
Is the focus on driving, or is it more of an action game like Mafia?

There is only driving. And there is a story, a surprisingly good one from the first few hours I played of it on ps3. No running around. No shooting.

That rule should be in OP
Steam Veterans know that rule by heart, mostly because they already lost a deal on an error or bought something that had a daily deal later on the week.
But yes, that rule is always on the OP on big sale (summer/winter) events.

I've come to terms with never playing all this shit. At this point I'm just building a collection for my future (hopefully way future) son or daughter to enjoy.

I'm the same, so Driver will have to wait until the Summer sale.
I had a huge amount of fun with Driver SF. I think it was incredibly underrated. The "body shift" mechanic sounds crazier than it is, it worked really well and I'd have no hesitation in buying another Driver game that employed the same thing.
The Ubishit login bollocks I forgave grudgingly and I really do think it harmed the games reputation. However, at 75% off it really should be an essential purchase.
I preordered it (I think) at £34.99 and I certainly had my moneys worth. Even at 1/2 price I'd be saying get it NOW!

Driver at 75% off is excellent. Was hoping to buy it during the summer sale anyway.
Edit: is the Deluxe version worth it?

Driver: San Fran is tied with Burnout Revenge as my favorite driving game this gen so I'm double dipping.
I don't trust Ubi so I'm buying it now. They'll probably troll with 50% off during the summer sale rather than going full ham at 85% off. Also, make sure to grab an ENB mod to fix the lighting and color balance.

How does Driver SF run on Mac? My gaming PC is currently in storage and all I have is my Macbook with a 9600M GT. Sucks I can't use a 360 pad without switching into Bootcamp either, but whatever.
