Eeh... nothing you probably don't already have.
Tropico 5 50% off is nice and gets you most of the way there.
Darksiders Franchise and Deadly Premonition are always good, but don't really get you there.
They have that 75% off Alan Wake people are craving badly...

So yeah, you might get there if you combine a few things, but it's up to what you already own.

yeah, prolly not gonna happen

thanks

So, wait, today is the day we talk about how terrible Argentina's customs, inflation, tax pressure (21% sales tax just to give a quick example) and restrictions to everything are? I stopped buying international physical stuff earlier in the year when they created the "only 2 packages per person, per year with a 25usd franchise, paying nearly 50% in taxes, at purchase and at customs".

No more japanese games or books for me. No more music albums of stuff that has 0% chances of being released here. No more spending the money the way I want, just the way Cristina (the president) and her vampires want. Screw this country, ugh.

Anyway, way too offtopic. Did anyone play Planetary Annihilation? Looks tempting at 80%.

Anything else worth from today's deals?

So I'm a bit curious as to why no one is talking about Dying Light, in either a positive or negative way.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=942994

Looking at that it seems Techland have made a move away from the confrontational roots of Dead Islands. It looks like a combination of Mirrors Edge style traversal, with Condemned style melee, set in a Dead Rising type overworld and with Ubisoft Game stuff to check and activate. While not super stoked I can see flashes of elements that I would enjoy.

The game still is a couple weeks away + many big games and sales are coming as well. So it's understandably overshadowed.
But since seeing this gameplay video on gamersyde, I am very excited ho it'll turn out.

I'm still salty that Letter Quest was an unadvertised Daily and I missed it...

Click to expand...

It wasn't an unadvertised Daily. Its sale discount percentage was added on top of the launch week discount of 20%, resulting in -60% for a couple of days.

At times, I have the same problem. Looking at what you have on deck, though, I can see your issue. You have a set of open-style games that are full of sidequests and collectibles that, even if you don't go for, contain time sinks. Break it up with some pick-up games.

CS:GO is a good game to break things up, for me. Binding of Isaac is another one. You can even fit in a quick banger like Transistor or The Swapper, that you can jump in, play out, and move on from.

As is, I think you're stacking the deck against yourself with too many similar titles. We're in a pretty good spot with regards to stockpiling games and dropping them at will. So, unless it's cutting into other expenses that are more wisely budgeted for, don't skip Winter Sale and just stock up and play on.

I'm already breaking it up with Call of Duty: Black Ops II and FIFA 15 multiplayer. I play FIFA every day, but I just want to complete some games. I never do that.

Seriously, I don't want anymore eroges to come, if they're just getting cut :/

tomb raider for $4 is almost tempting
Click to expand...

I had a hell of a fun time with TR. While the tomb raiding isn't a focus of the game, I enjoyed exploring the maps and finding the tombs. There were some decent puzzles. I also appreciated the descriptions of all the various historical items and trinkets that you find in the game.

The main action itself is pretty fun, even if not terribly challenging.

It's hilarious that there's no OT for The Crew (TheWorthyEdge dropped it back in September and apparently nobody else cared enough to pick up the job). I considered making a PC perf. thread since the game unlocked in AU and NZ 8 or so hours ago but it'd likely see fewer posts than the one I made for Borderlands: TPS.

Indeed. Also what's wrong with cut eroge? Makes the story not seem as odd to some. Plus others can still get their hands on the real thing. If they were smart it would be buy through the website for both.

That vietnamese guy made some character model with back story and tried to sell it to people as the new big thing. According to his pictures he also made an actual patent on this thing. It's just hilarious how hard he tries with this discount Dr. Fate.

It just feels wrong to have something cut from the game.

Toilet Paper Shooter needs to be a real genre. Yes, I know what TPS actually stands for.
