The Golden Rule isn't "Wait for the Daily Deals/Flash Sales"?

Looks like this is the last flash sale. Was hoping for Rayman Origins.

I don't think it will go lower, but it will probably go on sale again.

The odds of it being the same price are probably 50/50 considering it's Capcom, but it won't be lower.

Not in that sense, though I guess that wording applies here as well.
I wouldn't say "probably". Steam sales are pretty good at fucking you right when you think you can predict them.
Don't be so sure.
It was more of a rhetorical question.
Of course it applies here, since he burnt himself by not waiting (or more accurately, not checking to see if any more deals were on the horizon).Wouldn't wait for next month if you really want AE. Capcom's too unpredictable.
Yeah, I got dozens of modded costumes installed, actually.

SSFIVAE + all costumes for $13 is an amazing deal. I wish consoles had sales like this.

Doesn't that say it's been on sale during every event?

Yeah, I think so. I'm not familiar with Steam sales but I do remember final encore sales, but I'm not sure if they'll have one.
It was a fun past week during this sale.
Winter sale is only a few weeks away! It's going to be crazier! :O

If for some reason you don't own Just Cause 2, Binding of Isaac, or Bastion, pick those up now! So many good games for so cheap The multiplayer mod for JC2 is really awesome, by the way.

The timers for all the deals are right there on the storefront.
This Autumn Sale and the Summer Sale earlier in the year are the only two instances where it's been marked down further than its general sale discount. Granted, two Daily/Flash Sale discounts over a period of three sales in which it's been included makes for good odds, but Capcom's inconsistency cannot be overstated.
Yes, it's AE ver. 2012. Would you like in on a 4-pack?

Being a lower price, 0%. Being on sale at all again, also fairly low.
LOL
Did you guys remember the INSANE price SF4 COMPLETE editon was on Brazilian sale at the begining of the sales ?
Well ... now that it is on flash deals ...
And the complete edition is almost DOUBLE the original price xD
For comparisson, 11.49 reais = 5.5163 US Dollars

I google'd my question and purchase it already. Thanks for the offer, though.
$15 actually. They were selling a lot of newish $60 games for $15. Not sure what got into them all of a sudden.
edit: nm, you said xbl. i was talking about the ms online store.
Apparently, the MS Store sale is indeed the one I was thinking of -- the XBL sale applied to Forza Horizon DLC, not the game itself.
How did the Autumn Sale suck? $5 for Deus Ex was pretty awesome, as was $5 for Portal 2.
Yeah, think I'm gonna have to bite even if I would rather have such a deal for consoles. :/ At least my stick is for the 360 and PC compatible as well so I'm ok. :]
Steam sales always suck when you already have all the games. How else can you spend money?
Hard to say since this is the first time it's been on sale, but if you're unlikely to play the game before Christmas, there's no harm in waiting regardless -- it's just four weeks, after all.

This is pretty much where I'm at with Steam. I've got almost everything that I want from sales. New stuff won't count until 6 months+.
By buying all the games you don't particularly want, of course!

Dunno how active the PC community is but as for lag it depends on who you connect to. As far as fighting game netcode goes it's not the best, but it's still good.
I'd like in on a 4 pack.
OK, hopefully we get two more!
SSFIVAE 4 Pack - $7.50 each

As I said earlier though, I can't host because I already own the game.

Oh for fuck sakes. I was all ready to go to bed and I see this topic, and now I spent $15 on SSFIVAE Complete and Binding of Isaac. Thanks GAF!

I'm going to have to pull out of the pack I just realized its more expensive to buy the DLC separately. Sorry to mislead.
