Far Cry 4 is a little tempting, but given that the base price is $70 for Canada, 20% doesn't go far enough.

Lords of the Fallen, though... yeah, 60% off is good. Yeah, I'm taking that.

I kinda want to get some Talisman DLC but I don't know anyone willing to play with me -_-

Lord of the Fallen already 60% off, I'm sure during summer it will be 75% off.

It was 40% off only a few weeks ago during the Fall Sale if I recall. I wouldn't be surprised if we see it 75% off much sooner for a mid-week or weekly. Expect 80% or more off during the Summer Sale.

If I buy Lords of The Fallen I'd be broke :(

EDIT: How's the PC port of Bully?

Wanted to buy Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance but it isn't on sale at all. How is that even possible?

Should I get Lords of the Fallen instead?
 
Halos in a bad state when that's seen as the best,

No sir.

Halo was in a bad state when people told me to play Halo 3 or Halo Reach and I did and they were terrible.

Halo as a twin stick shooter? Most fun I've ever had with the series. Period.

Far Cry 4 Gold is 1 dollar cheaper than regular Far Cry 4

33% discount on one, 20% discount on the other.

This isn't true in NA:

Regular $47.99, down from $59.99. +$30 season pass would be $77.99.
Gold is $60.29, down from $89.99.

So much for this sale... this was the one game I was sorta willing to bit on and was waiting for the ACU 33% discount. I guess since it didn't have the bad press ACU got at launch, FC4 doesn't get the same discount.

This sale is the most disappointing Steam sale I've ever experienced. Even during the Summer sale, I was picking up random things that were on sale that I didn't own. Now it's just... tired discounts on tired games or "token" discounts that don't amount to shit in the "never pay more than $20 for a computer game" era we live in.

I would, but my group has been decently consistent in getting games in, and sometimes these games take a LONG time.

I said this in the Holiday Sale thread, but if you're the main guy in the group, you can Host the DLCs for other people. *If you host with Dungeon dlc people can play in dungeon, and *If you host with DLC characters and choose everyone forced random, other people may get to play as your DLC characters.

The price for Evil Within is a joke. And I hoped for a Season Pass Price Glitch just like "Bioshock Infinite" Season Pass last year.

My investment for halo still hasn't passed halo 2. Wasn't a fan of Spartan assault though. Maybe if I played it coop I would have liked it more.
 
I'm tempted by lords of the fallen. 20 bucks already and I would still have 16 bucks in my wallet.....but It could go even cheaper considering how fast it has dropped already.

I'm in the same boat. It dropped so fast that I think I'll wait on something like a GMG decent sale + voucher to put it in a sweet spot.

That, and the reviews have been more "ain't bad" than "s'good."

I'm interested in this Talisman game. So it has online multi as well as hotseat?

Is hotseat fun? Can you pass a controller, or do you need to use a keyboard/mouse?

Not really. It's been 66% off at other retailers regularly now with the price drop. The only time it's been cheaper is when you could combine the voucher at GMG and get it for $16.32.

Either way, if you have Steam credit and couldn't buy the game for $16.32 @ GMG, $20 is a fine price. Especially for my GOTY. (And besides, for the game to be $20 2 months after release? Fuckin' amazing.)

For anyone interested in Gauntlet: It's still on sale for the next three hours or so at Nuuvem for just a little more than half of today's sale price.

Not familiar with hotseating with the game, but it's a board game with pretty decent online multiplayer, you can join a lobby straight from steam friends and have pretty decent amount of options for House Rules for how you want to play. All the dudes I've played with play straight on with a Mouse/Key.

*Just checked, you can set all players as local players, I'm not sure if this has controller support, which I kind of doubt, cause it really is staight on a virtual board, but you can I guess pass off who clicks and such.

EDIT: I don't think you can mix and match, with 2 local and 2 online. FYI

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

For you.
Ok, I'm a bit weirded out. Seems I already own Dragon: The Game. I never bought it or got it anywhere from what I can remember. And also there's no record of it ever being activated on my account details.


Wut?
 
Bethesda just won't cut with that Evil Within season pass, will they?

Also, Green Man Gaming doesn't seem to be loading. Nvm, just seems to be extra slow.

That's the last time I let my sister scratch a Steam Card.

That happened on my Half Life 2 activation code that came with ATI cards back in 1956.

You can open a ticket on Steam Support and they'll most likely ask for a picture of the card and provide you with a code.
