Damn, bid on Deus Ex 1 and Hitman Blood Money... Will probably not play them until 2011 considering my backlog :lol

Deus Ex 1 should take priority over anything in your back log. Hitman Blood Money should as well.

 

[Dead Prince]

yesss spread the word

There were some packages that showed up last week, I think, in the register or whatever. I don't remember what they were. Also FF7/8 will be showing up; they're also listed now, but not yet on the storefront.

But as for what the actual deals will be, no idea!

Hitman and Deus Ex atm

 

[gregor7777]

Think this will update around noon EST?

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Hitman and Deus Ex atm

Bought? Yes!

 

[K.Jack]

Ugh, I will buy FF7/FF8, just because I'm convinced that Squeenix is this close to giving me FFXIII on Steam.

I buy everything they put on Steam for this reason alone.

Are we really getting the pc ports of 7 and 8? a friend owns the pc version of 7 and the midi music was :lol but if they can fix it up to run better just like AvP classic did, I will nab it at a fair price.

 

[Double D]

So, what's the hitman deal?

This game and Steam just do not get along.

 

[Hawk SE]

It'll be interesting what the rest of the week for the Squenix/Eidos games, there is many high calibur games.

All I want to see is SupCom2 drop just a smidge, might bite on it.

Monday's deals might have peaked for me

EDIT: Tuesday's Deals just went up:

[YuriLowell]

big meh from me.

 

[Stitch]

a friend owns the pc version of 7 and the midi music was :lol

it depends on what kind of midi thingy you've installed. some have shitty sound and some have good sound. not sure how that works with newer soundcards though lol.
i think there was also a way to use the music from the PSX CDs

Where's Batman:AA for 12.75, Steam? Pricematch the GFWL discount from last month! Do it!

It certainly seems like they are testing the waters for it. Of course, I'm surprised 12 never got a PC port.

 

[Liquid Helium]

I bought deux ex goty but I have a problem, when people speak, they cut off before there finished. It seems like the game is too fast or something. Anyone have a solution?

 

[Daigoro]

me too. one of the four anyways.

Batman:AA, Last Remnant, or bust.

Are you running Vista or 7? Deus Ex gave me some trouble after swtiching from XP until I came across this: http://kentie.net/article/d3d10drv/

It's a Direct3D 10 renderer for that particular Unreal Engine. It fixes most compatibility errors and allows for ridiculously high resolutions.

Also if you go to the steam forum page for the game there is a topic that is stickied that has a fix for the game specificially. Worked for me.

Isn't there also a mod to use battle character models outside of fights also? but it was buggy because they had a different bone setup but it worked for the most part. I should look about for some mods.

It certainly seems like they are testing the waters for it. Of course, I'm surprised 12 never got a PC port.

I think they dived straight into 13 and 14 development once 12 was out, plus the game is rather polygon starved, imagine it running in high res *ick*

If they are porting 13 across it will at least push today's graphics cards i'm sure with realtime shadows and effects, plus not sub HD like the poor 360 version

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

Loving the WTF in the sale banner on the store page.

 

[speculawyer]

I'm so glad I already got the 'Eidos Collector Pack' which doesn't seem to exist anymore. It is sure saving me from buying a lot of these games.

Worked perfectly, thanks

According to LovingSteam, the packages were Just Cause & Batman, Battlestations & Order of War, Tomb Raider & Last Remnant (he didn't mention Deus Ex & Hitman). So presumably that means something like JC & AA tomorrow, TR & LR Thursday and FF7 & FF8 on Friday?

 

[gregor7777]

Just Cause 1 or 2 with Batman?

I'll be all over that shit if it's 2.

 

[Chiaroscuro]

It is up: Battlestations/Order of War pack: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/4000

 

[Scipius]

Just Cause 1 or 2 with Batman?

I'll be all over that shit if it's 2.

Just Cause 2 will not be released for another two weeks, so JC1 I would say.

 

[confused]

Same here, got pretty much all Eidos games for $45 during the christmas sale. Thank god I jumped all over it on the last day seen as it has been discontinued. Was a bit bummed that TR: Anniversary wasn't included though.

 

[Salacious Crumb]

It is up: Battlestations/Order of War pack: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/4000

All three of those are incredibly simple and tedious. Awful, awful games.

 

[panda21]

if they make it half price i'd probably get it

anyone played that RUSE yet? the beta started today.

i only just realised its ubishit but then i think its online only anyway?

are they really that bad? i thought order of war was supposed to be good at least, and possibly whichever of those battlestations games was the first.

Yeah I saw some videos earlier and it looked interesting so I preloaded it, but after seeing that Ubi's publishing it I know I won't be buying it anyway. =\

I did like the bit of the Just 'Cause 2 demo that I played. I kept running away from a helicopter and getting angry, and then this light flicked on in my head that I could just grab it with my hook and hijack it. Fantastic moment there. :lol

 

[Schmattakopf]

I kinda want to try these games, but all the previous Steam deals have spoiled me. $30 is too much. :lol

 

[D4Danger]

damn! was that deal on Hitman only for 1 day?

I knew I should've bought it.

 

[careksims]

Oh good. Nothing to spend today.

 

[Diablohead]

This week it's a different square bundle each day, so tomorrow afternoon it will be something else, ect.

 

[Q8D3vil]

so , battlestation games are no good ?!
considering buying them to play them with logitech flight pad :/

 

[kamspy]

WARNING FELLOW STEAM USERS

Just Cause 1 on PC is a port of the XBox 1 game, not the 360 game. It's pretty awful.

 

[Salacious Crumb]

To me they are at least. Maybe I went into them with the wrong mindset. On paper they seemed to be pretty unique strat games with a little depth. As it turns out they're all very shallow. The only thing you need to do in Order of War is click your mans on the enemy mans and wait, no strategy needed. And battle stations tries to do too many things and fails at all of them, Ariel and naval combat is monotonous and there is not an ounce of strategy in either game.

So terrible. Why the hell did they do that?

 

[Twig]

I thought I'd heard Men of War was good, but Order of War was not. Maybe I've got it backwards, I dunno.
