STEAM | August II 2014 - Kept you waiting, huh?

Shouldn't the dev be worried? Ain't the bulk of profits made in the first month of release? 10k sales in 10 days is not bad but probably has the to suffice several people + family members, dev costs etc. Wish them the best as the game looks nice.

Tell that to Umihara Kawase, it got a free price drop because no one's buying it on 3DS.
I watched some gameplay for the DS and PS1 version. Looks mad fun, love the 90s japanese artstyle with ultra-cute design and deadly-catchy tunes. With Japanese companies turning their heads to Steam lately maybe there is a chance? While we're at cute things...

Yeah it's a great game and it's really cheap. The fog and ambient music is only in this one world (out of 5), the rest have clear weather and happier music.
For example: http://a.pomf.se/xwknvd.webm
---too cute---must resist becoming happy---infection with smile imminent---
I really like the title

Wow, were is that from? Love Kojima.

A bit OT. There should be an option when replying to a quote with an image where you mark a section of the quote, click a button and the codes get deleted.

Daily Eldritch 80% off
"Weekend" 2K Weekend - Civilization V 75% off
Humble Daily The Fall 50% off


(It's only wednesday, right? dat weekend creep)

Bioshock triple pack 83% off
XCOM EU + The Bureau 83% off
These seem like mistakes for an "up to 80% off" weekend, but maybe they'll gouge you for DLC this way ;)

I think what's happening here is Enhanced Steam is comparing the base price of the game to your price with discount.

Well I'm more shocked that both Beyond Earth and Borderlans 1.5 have a base 25% discount in the UK. Even more so that the Loyalty discount stacks as well on Blands. BE is about the same price here as in NA but is about 20% more expensive in Europe despite all regions still being able to trade with one another and even more so with the UK having the possibly cheapest non region locked version of the Pre Sequel. I think that's the case anyhow?

no daily?

come on maaaaan

edit: I just saw Turfster's post but before that I went to the store and it's not there dammit gaben u made me look the fool

edit 2: borderlands 2 goty 142% off, $-16.81... why can't we get price errors that actually work?
 
^ there was a MGS Steam announcement last week... wait, is that a wordplay? Steam - Solid???

Is Final Hours of Portal 2 any good? The TitanFall seemed interesting enough to read on the bus or something

BL2 is showing as -142% off. I thought I might get it for free, but it won't let me add it to my cart :/

Even if you can get it to cart it won't let you checkout if there's product with negative price.
I actually managed to get once, added random products to make price positive and was denied :(

I Bioshock 1 worth a buy on PC? I played it all the way through on PS3 and halfway through on 360, but I've heard the PC version is far superior.

Facts about me:

- I used to be an Adobe AIR developer (Desktop Apps) before moving on to Javascript Stuff
I am so sorry. ;)

But yeah, it's not really good 'reading'... and since it's not on a tablet like the others, you can't really take it with you either.
It's weird.

It is. Depending on your videocard, it can be kinda wonky and crashy in non-DX9 mode, tho.
Wait for the Bioshock day, though.

Oh good call. I forgot that they do individual days for franchises in sales like this.

And I have a GTX760. Think it'd be wonky?

Ooooh a 2K Weekend I wonder what I haven't g...


Oh? Well never mind then.

I wonder how many peeps don't have most of that stuff by now after the couple of bundles and constant deals over the past couple of years.
 

Sub Zero

his body's cold as ice, but he's got a heart of gold
It probably flew under everyone's radar but Cities: Skylines looks very interesting. It's from the developers of Cities in Motion and it's a city builder in the vain of Sim City

Trailer is pretty funny because they advertise offline play as a feature clearly poking EA for the SimCity fiasco

I think this is a JaceC type question, but does anyone know if someone can buy a region restricted game and gift it to someone outside of the region?

I just found out about the Tomb Raider Japanese Language pack:

And I'm curious to see if I can get my hands on it.

It's possible.
It was done the last time it was on sale.

steam basically stopped working for me: store doesn't load, market too, community barely, only library works, it was very slow before, so I've seen that coming, still not a fan of such "performance".

That BL2 GOTY. $9.99 in US, €11.24 in EU.

Hey 2K you got the currencies the wrong way, euros are the more valuable one.

don't even try, 2K hates Europeans with passion.

Ohhhh, might grab Spec Ops the line. Only got 3-4 hours in on PS3. I think 80% off is probably the best we'll get on that one, no?

Also, Eldritch, yay or nay? I usually don't play that type of game, but it looks interesting.
