Let me guess you have both.

*cough*

 

[lethial]

Come onnnnnn price errors. That Dishonored error has me hooked!

 

[Ledsen]

I also play Civ V without a mouse.

How? I've tried it with a Wacom pen and that worked reasonably well.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Fuck. Only have 10 dollars left in the steam wallet. Don't know if I should get Papers Please! or not.

Almost over...

 

[Maxwood]

*cough*

What skin are you using, if you don't mind me asking? Haven't really used any besides Steam's default one, but this looks great.

 

[Tellaerin]

I'm ready for today's price error... I mean, daily deals.

I'm starting to think those aren't errors. I'm wondering if they don't deliberately slip an occasional pricing "mistake" or two into these sales to keep everyone glued to the keyboard in hopes of catching one. >.>

 

[The One Who Knocks]

Help me out folks. I have a crappy laptop not at all designed to play games, but I want an under $10 game or two. No mouse, so I prefer games that are easily played with just keyboard or aren't at least aren't at all twitchy. I know that's a lot of restrictions, but anywho, I was looking at Spelunky and/or Rogue Legacy. Are there any outstanding turn-based strategy or tower defense games on sale? I have Civ V and Tropico, enjoy them both. What do you experts think?

I'm in the same situation as you (well, i have a mouse, but I don't usually plug it in) and some of my favourite games for this are:

Spelunky
Super Meat Boy (I know you are discourage from using using the keyboard, but I like using it).
Typing of the Dead (if your specifications are high enough)
FTL
The Binding of Isaac (highly recommended)
Super Hexagon

Since you have Civilization 5, I might also suggest Galactic Civilisations 2 and Crusader Kings 2 (if this interests you, I still haven't put in enough time to learn how to play it).

PixelVision.

 

[Madridy]

Still kicking my self over not picking Dishonored GOTY yesterday during the price mistake...

 

[fantomena]

About 1 minute till no Deadly Premonition sale. Can't wait!

 

[Zia]

Fuck. Only have 10 dollars left in the steam wallet. Don't know if I should get Papers Please! or not.

Almost over...

It'll end up on more year-end lists than any other indie game. And rightfully so.

 

[Decado]

It's not like Civ for the third time, it has elements in common, but there are many games with building that aren't Civs.
It has quite a lot of SRPG elements, combat may be a bit basic, but not really bad or anything, and you have to be willing to do management of your cities. If you like games like King's Bounty, HoMM, Eador, Disciples and alike, you probably will like it.
Only keep in mind you want Legendary Heroes no less.

edited: forgot something, interface is a bit strange and takes time to get used to.

So does this mean don't get Fallen Enchantress, wait for Legendary Heroes?

 

[Maxwood]

PixelVision.

Thanks!

Maybe a little on the paranoid side but I definitely could see it. After all we all see it works.

 

[Gintoki313]

IIRC, AC games tend to be poorly optimized. Ubisoft just ain't bout dat life.

Ugh, now I'm starting to experience first hand Ubisoft's brilliant PC ports. Between all the glitches, Uplay, and it running my PC hard. I'm having a bad experience. The game is still fun at the moment though.

Don't worry, no regret will ever match missing out on the Metro LL BB deal for the grand total of $0.01.

I really doubt it's intentional. I believe it's usually the result of the new discount being applied while the older, store-wide discount wasn't removed yet, so it's a 50% + 75% case, but it DOES happen a lot.

I'll hold you responsible!

EDIT: What the fuck Batman price.

 

[atomsk]

Lord Gaben, please grant me Jurassic Park The Game as a daily. Would be willing to offer sexual favors in exchange.

Are you a masochist?

Spoiler

I bought the PC boxed special edition and the tchotchkes were the best part

 

[Marauder Shields]

Hmmm disappointing. Not a single game I want/don't already own.

[Alastor3]

About 1 minute till no Deadly Premonition sale. Can't wait!

you were right!

 

[Stet]

Crummy prices.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Nothing today, pretty much everything on there has been cheaper

 

[schwupp]

wow nothing

 

[BY2K]

Hmmm, Borderlands 2 is on the Daily Deals but not the GOTY. Does that mean the GOTY will be on a Daily Deal separately?

 

[Barzul]

Shitty deals

[The Grim Heaper]

THE PRICES HAVEN'T UPDATED YET

 

[phantomspiker]

Woooo, Shadowrun!

Now to wait for the price to update.

CoJ Gunslinger is fuckin awesome...BUY IT! When the price updates of course.

 

[drizzle]

Is Borderlands 2 Region Restricted? I wouldn't mind paying 10 bvucks for the GOTY edition..

 

[Rickenslacker]

Daily reminder that prices don't update on the main page immediately and take a few minutes to display proper discounts.

 

[elhav]

Wait for the prices to change lol

 

[Gintoki313]

Arkham City GOTY for $7.50 isn't so bad. Too bad I already beat it on PS3.

 

[gabbo]

Only MP3 of any interest.
So, as a fan of MP 1 and 2, I've held off on getting this. How does it stack up GAF and is it worth it for $10?

 

[derExperte]

THE PRICES HAVEN'T UPDATED YET

People will never learn, even in here. Surprising, but what can you do.

 

[Skirn]

Total War: Rome II 50% off - just what I was waiting for.

 

[Derrick01]

Are those splinter cell and rome 2 deals for real? I'm assuming even if it's a mistake they'll both only be 50% off, which is too high for both.

 

[amdnv]

Edit:
Dead Space 2 is banned in Germany? Huh.

That's why it's not available.

 

[Volcynika]

THE PRICES HAVEN'T UPDATED YET

No, we have to bitch before things change.

 

[Vigilance]

Hm Rome II for $30

 

[Enco]

Pricing errors happen once every few sales. Don't get your hopes up.

 

[Balehead]

It's like a roulette. Max Payne was -80% for a brief moment.

 

[Zeknurn]

Nothing interesting today.

 

[Madrugador]

Nothing for me today. Good :lol

 

[NingenJanai]

shadowrun 55% off, lame, will wait for 75% off

 

[Marauder Shields]

Nevermind.
