UNGNGGHH Infinite for $10. Missed it the other day on Steam. You guys think it'll show up in a flash sale for cheaper or should I just grab it now?

its $8 with voucher on GMG

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Prices are better, but getting a gift from the US is usually still 25% cheaper, so...

Yeah. Its still cheaper. I just noticed thats why the tradingprices arent as good as they used to be and then I checked Steam and saw that most games now have a special Euro-price instead of $=€.

 

[Aaron]

GMG is doing a recap of all their earlier sales, and I strongly recommend Dungeon Dashers:
http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/us/en/pc/games/indie/dungeon-dashers/

Redeems on Steam. It's early access, but feels pretty far along. It's basically turned based Gauntlet with puzzle and upgrade elements. It's really fun and satisfying, with fairly short levels than can be finished in around ten minutes each.

 

[Copons]

Can you put the comment here?
@ Work on my phone right now and steam isn't working.

I must say I'm impressed. Driving a truck seems surprisingly funny, and my girlfriend too asked me lots of times "plz let me play". NO, I WON'T LET YOU PLAY. I'M THE MAN HERE, AND ONLY MEN ARE ALLOWED TO DRIVE TRUCKS. Uhn.

It was basically a rip off one of my most famed

"Euro Truck Simulator 2 Adventures" that you can find somewhere in Steam threads.

Also, I truly enjoy OctarineParrot's comment:

I get the feeling Copons is a Yorkie fan.

I thought GMG prices were universal and not region specific. It's showing as $19.98 for me.

How's the stardock DRM in Galactic Civilizations II? Really tempted to get it as it is only 3.74€ at greenmangaming. Is GalCiv2 better than the first one?

 

[MMBosstones86]

OH SNAP. Grid 2 for $13? Wait... does anyone have the current GMG code?

edit: current GMG code/voucher is TAREM-4PLAY-VOUCH

Grid 2 for $10 - yes.

awesome dude. Thanks for posting. Picking this up now

 

[Copons]

I get the feeling Copons is a Yorkie fan.

I've never heard of that (it never got to Italy), but if I cannot drive it beyond every EU speed limits, then I'm not a fan.

When you first launch the game it prompts you to register it with a Stardock account. There is no other DRM; in fact, registering it gives you the option to download a DRM-free version directly from Stardock if you want.

And yes, it surpasses the first game in every respect.

 

[XShagrath]

About three weeks, yeah. I bought some more licensed stuff earlier but I passed on Guardians of Middle-earth as it may be featured during the Winter Sale (ideally 75%, but more likely, considering the general discount of 50%, is 66%).

Looks like a good bit of this is 75% off over at GMG. Couple it with the voucher for an extra 20%. Probably cheaper than you'll see it on Steam Proper.

 

[Tomodachi]

I'm sorry if it has already been discussed but I'm not very active on the thread lately and a quick search didn't answer my question, what happened with nuuvem? I bought a few things from them in the past but now I'm trying to get Burial at Sea and it says I can't buy it from my region... :/

 

[FloatOn]

About to buy Pacman on Gamestop but it says PAC-MAN Championship Edition DX+- [Digital Download via GameStop App]

Gamestop app??? Will I get a Steam code?

yeah I went through that song and dance for castlevania. it's quite dumb but you do get a key that you can redeem on steam.

Bought. Thanks!

Torchlight II is infinitely better than D3, so for $5? Absolutely.

Thanks, bought a 4-pack so I can share with my friends later.

Some japanese game fans can't understand there's a difference. Phil was right about that statement too even though he said it in the most dickish, forum-type way at a professional event.

But being a dick is not the same thing as being a racist.

If someone starts whining about how bad China is and whatnot just because I happened to be Chinese, then yeah, I considere that racist. That Japanese developer could've been me. He didn't have to take that abuse. It was racist to make that particular person feel like shit for no reason.

It's understandable that you don't like the game, but don't ruin a big part of its gameplay for others, please. In FEZ, the discovery practically is the game.

 

[Dr Dogg]

I've never heard of that (it never got to Italy), but if I cannot drive it beyond every EU speed limits, then I'm not a fan.

Well here in the UK it is the chocolate bar associated with truck drivers. This also played heavy on the ads and marketing culminating in the slogan "Yorkie: It's not for girls". Needless to say that didn't go down to well in recent times.

Surprised Nestle haven't got in on the ETS2 bandwaggon.

I got a Batman Arkham Asylum booster pack. Don't know if I should open it or sell it.

Wait, the Amazon deals right now give you the $5 credit in January for every purchase?

Now I need to buy stuff D:

 

[cicero]

I did a post waaaay back. Lemme see if I can dig it up.
Too many posts, have this thing I found on the internet instead.

Thank you!

 

[Tenrius]

So today a random guy who liked my Scribblenauts Unlimited review gifted me Retro City Rampage for some reason.

And then I was added by a random Chechen (seemingly) guy and the following conversation occured:

Keldorn: Why did you add me?
=# corr3dizo: simply added to each other
Keldorn: Uh, okay then. How did you even find me though?
=# corr3dizo: good player
=# corr3dizo: I did not find, add good players
Keldorn: Thanks, I guess. But how do you know that I'm a good player?
=# corr3dizo: looked achievement badges, of course, in fact did not see: (

I'm not used to this level of exposure!

 

[cicero]

Wait, the Amazon deals right now give you the $5 credit in January for every purchase?

Now I need to buy stuff D:

$5 credit towards purchases from a special "Editor's Choice" selection of titles that usually change all throughout the month. Last year many people were doubtful the choices would be decent and were quite outspoken when the first choices weren't amazing. They were proven wrong though. For the past two years those January Amazon $5 credits were just fantastic for me. I even have bought small DLC just to rack up at least 10 $5 credits before January.

Once installing the GameStop App, go to My Games, and there should be a product key for Steam.

Yeah I noticed the "not for girls" in the Wiki page, but the fact that it's somewhat linked to truck drivers is awesome!
Next time I'm in London, I'll totally stock up on them to explicitly affirm my full endorsement of sexism, chocolate bars and trucking as a way of life.

If I remember correctly, wasn't the question specifically, "What do you think of modern Japanese games" and wasn't it asked by someone who was noticeably a non-native English speaker?

I'm not saying he responded in the best way, or anything, and he deserved the flogging he received about his tone. But he's bad enough already without having to call him racist, too.

Yeah I know, I took advantage of them last year (so many free Hotline Miamis ). I just didn't know they were active yet, I only bought from Amazon during the Steam winter sale period, not before.

 

[Knurek]

Yeah, that was the gist of it. Not sure why people made such a fuss.
Most of modern Japanese games suck.

[Arthea]

Yeah, that was the gist of it. Not sure why people made such a fuss.

Even if that's true, nobody knows, it's impossible to play all games. Just pointing out obvious.
Don't really care what devs talk or do until they make good games.
Although being douchebag in public usually don't help even devs.

I'm starting to really appreciate the reviews feature on Steam.

How cool is that my sexist ranting comment about ETS2 managed to be the third most helpful review with "193 of 253 people (76%) found this review helpful"?

Yeah, my review literally got lost in the shuffle, as only one person recommended mine for ETS2, lol. It's way at the bottom. I should have put a joke in it or something...

 

[cicero]

Not to derail this thread...But being critical or even dismissal of China, or any other country, does not inherently make a person a "racist" without a distinctly racist component to the criticism. Also, racism is not logically determined solely by whether or not something induces hurt feelings.

 

[Turfster]

It's understandable that you don't like the game, but don't ruin a big part of its gameplay for others, please. In FEZ, the discovery practically is the game.

I never said I didn't like it, I just said it was bad for OCD people =p
I didn't think that was all that spoilery (I mean, it's basically the gameplay mechanic), but I spoiler tagged it...

 

[ShinNL]

If I remember correctly, wasn't the question specifically, "What do you think of modern Japanese games" and wasn't it asked by someone who was noticeably a non-native English speaker?

I'm not saying he responded in the best way, or anything, and he deserved the flogging he received about his tone. But he's bad enough already without having to call him racist, too.

From my point of view, if I asked someone "What do you think of Chinese food?" and that person answers "Your food just suck" and then a whole rant after that...

I am not a representative for every Chinese person, I do not have to take the backlash.

By saying 'your', Fish simply saw a Japanese person and took it out on him, because you know, he's Japanese. I consider that racist.

Saw the video review, it seems I'm not missing out on much anyway.

Edit: This post should answer how I see it, cicero.

 

[wazoo]

I'm still relatively new to Steam, so how often do these sales occur a year? My wallet cannot take this kind of beating.

how often do these not occur is the better question.
