More of a wishlist than predictions:

1. Borderlands
2. Darwinia/Multiwinia
3. Altitude
4. Tropico 3
5. Wolfenstein
6. Spore

Also, I'm looking for some kind soul to help me buy Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 (not available in the UK). Here's my Steam community page. Will PayPal you the money or swap for another game of the same value or a bit more :)

Just buy it. Civ4 standalone is already a daily deal, doubt the pack is going up later on.

Alright, 2 questions:

1: Do folks still play Left 4 Dead? Is this something I should jump on? Or...
2: ...Should I go after Left 4 Dead 2? And if that's the case...
3: Does anyone have still have part of their 4pack that I could purchase off of them? :D

Thanks!


Still tons of people playing L4D original. I picked it up even though I have the sequel simply because if you like the game, 7 dollars is nothing compared to the hours of game time you'll enjoy. The only difference between L4D and L4D2 is the setting and cast. L4D2 has some extra monsters, but I would definitely suggest jumping on the original at that price.

Hey, GAF.

I've never played Max Payne or Max Payne 2.

You're probably gonna tell me I should buy them, huh.
If it hasn't aged too badly. Max Payne is a fine emotional train wreck that you probably should experience.

I, personally, enjoy the simplicity of L4D. I believe quite a few people prefer it to the sequel, even now.

For the price, you really have nothing to lose here. They were great in their respective days, not sure how well they're going to hold up, but I just picked them up assuming I'd want to play through them before Max Payne 3 came out. Just buy them, and hurry!

The one thing that annoys me most about L4D2 especially at the higher difficulties are the new monsters. I've been totally RNG fucked and had a jockey grab me into a spitter's acid, right after a charger released me. When things stack up like that the game can get REALLY frustrating.
 

Stop It

Perfectly able to grasp the inherent value of the fishing game.

Yes I am, right now, GO.

Quibbling over less than £2.50 (yes, they are even cheaper as a pack), lunacy.

Please have The Witcher and *especially* Wolfenstein as special sales today, Steam! I have Wolfenstein on 360 (picked it up for $20) and the single player is SO GOOD that I would double-dip to check it out on my PC...but not for the ~$40 they currently want (sale price). Too much!

Witcher was already on sale. I would pick up Wolfy though haven't played that one yet.

Witcher hasn't been a daily deal yet.

Right...~$13 is a great price but I may as well wait until Jan. 3 to make sure I don't lose out on a $7.50 or something deal...heh. It worked for Torchlight! $5 baby.

You guys need to stop saying Mass Effect. It will never appear that way. :(

Mass Effect is inevitable. D2D has already done a $5 sale and the sequel is due out soon. It's a win-win for both customer and publisher.

Is it that they havn't applied the deals yet? Or is Crysis just a steal at full price?

And Shattered Horizon's been $15 since the deals started :/
