Fair enough, will still spend lots of money. I just hope bioshock 2 will play fine, bio shock 1 freezes at the main menu and I can't find a fix.

They're both awesome. I would go for Condemned - no GFWL.
Me neither. I love the game, even though it literally fried my shiny brand new graphics card 3 years ago.

Condemned!

Condemned is finally on STEAM? Whoa...
At least, I don't remember it ever being on there.

Any opinions on Vampire: Bloodlines, Penumbra collection and Dracula Origin?

Same here!
I would like Darkness 2, but it was cheaper before. I'll wait until the price goes down lower.
Deep Space 2 can wait too

Wait for another 5-7 dollar Darkness 2 deal. It was good, but there's a ton of filler.

All great games. Dracula Oirigin is a great point and click; Penumbra is the first game(s) from Amnesia developers, and Bloodlines, well, GAF loves Bloodlines (and so do I, amazing RPG).
People should also check out Sherlock Holmes The Awakened/Last Testament/Vs The Ripper, Alter Ego, Dark Fall Lost Souls, Scratches, Anna and The Next Big Thing.
They're completely different beasts, so it's hard to compare
I've never been a huge fan of the stressful time-management aspect of the DR games personally

Considering Fear 2, the Club, and Prototype 1.
Is Scratches any good?

Thanks man. Will probably get them all tomorrow (or I'll just remove the Dracula game, as I don't really like point & clicks).
Again why Off the Record is a better experience: It has a time limitless, sandboxy game mode, where you can roam the locations without a time limit and just wreak havoc.
As I already said 3 times in this thread, so I think I'll stop saying for now: Wait for the Xmas Sale and buy OTR instead. It was 10 bucks back in July and it will certainly be on sale coming xmas.
Edit: However, I don't think Dead Rising 2 doesn't have its qualities. It's a new protagonist with a new story. I just think 7,50 is not a value proposition when Off The Record is a more complete experience. I'd wait for a lower price point (which won't ever happen anytime soon, but hey).
I think playing both back-to-back would be too excruciating, so I personally rather play the more complete one (OTR) and MAYBE buy the other one for completion sake down the road.

Yea, not for everyone I guess
Fantastic game
--How's Prototype 2?

My mouse is moving closer to the buy button.
Great to see Condemned on Steam finally. Definately one of my favourite horror games ever.
Well, yeah, it would probably need optimisation, and specific PC menus, KB+mouse support, additional testing and so on, but even then it seems like a majority of the work would already be done.

I'm playing through it now. Controls slightly different than 1, but is overall much better.

The first FEAR has one of the most satisfying shooting mechanics that I have ever experienced in a game. The environments get a little same-y the longer you play, but I think this is definitely a game where it's strengths completely overshadow its weaknesses.
Favorite FPS ever, with the sweetest ending.

Why do I need to enter again my cc info? Also I saw that on my transactions list there's a new Steam Complementary, why?

Home is an awful, predictable story with the worst cop out ending sequence in the history of gaming.
Pretty though.

It was on sale on Amazon for $4.99 the other day
Ya, for less than 24 hours. It wasn't up Friday morning and when I went to purchase it on Sat morning it was back to full price. Oh well. The game will be $5 again somewhere within the next 6 months. I am in not huge rush.

Just read this on the Dead Rising 2: OTR page:
EDIT: Actually not Capcom's fault, but Germany's. Still stupid.
Yeah Capcpom, fuck you too. Ridiculous.
EDIT: Actually not Capcom's fault, but Germany's. Still stupid.
So you can get locked out of games you own on Steam too. Sad, sad. Someone gifts it to me and I wouldnt even be able to play it? Ugh.
This man is underrating the game.
And I should really stop praising it so much, I feel like those obnoxious fanboys that everyone despises. Here's the deal: if everyone buys it, I'll stop praising it everywhere.
Until the next time it's on sale.

I can play it very well, it supports both of my controllers (Xbox 360 and Logitech Rumble Pad 2) runs flawlessly on a Core 2 Quad 2.5 and Gts 450 1 GB, it's a fun game!

wtf,an Activision game for $5.
It's actually Germany's censorship laws to blame for this, but go ahead and say fuck you to Capcom.
Small shoutout for a recommended deal throughout the halloween sale:
Dungeons
Costing 7,50€ here for the gold pack, including both games and the dlc.
Individually $4.99 for Dark Lord, Dungeons $3.74. I recommend getting Dungeons 1 + DLC packs if you dont feel like buying both. Tons of content and quite original. Click the OT for more info.

Alright, I have to take that back. This game is actually on "Liste B", which makes the game illegal in Germany. Didn't know that. So fuck you, Germany. I don't need a a babysitter to tell me what I'm allowed to play.
Doesn't look like there's any daily deals this time. I think the sales they have out right now are all the sales there's going to be.

Its not as big as the summer or winter sales and it doesn't look like they are doing anything other then "these games are 50-75% off during this date range. So it seems pretty safe to day these will be the prices going forward for the rest of the sale.
Nah, not really. If it was seized it would be illegal to sell it in Germany. Like Condemned.
So, how much is Condemned anyway?
