No ID Pack for Germany, fucking censorship 
Yay, a day of expensive deals, including L4D2 at the price it was on preorder sale for for like a month or two! :lol Guess I'll try to check back tomorrow.
I think that ID pack was on sale for only $10 more yesterday, so it's not a huge discount.

If you think Mirror's Edge for $5 and STALKER for $2 sucked, then I don't think anyone can help you. :lolVisualante said:

Not to directly question anyone's taste in games....
...but if you even mildly like FPSs and don't already own it, how can you not be interested in SS:HD? :lol

I sure hope soD4Danger said:
Or else, like me, they don't like scary games (thus all the DOOM games are out), don't care for the older graphics of the older Quake etc. games (thus a bunch more games are out), and figure that for Wolfenstein stuff, the free multiplayer of ET:RTCW is good enough, along with TF2 (thus removing most of the stuff that remains).syllogism said:
I dunno about Commander Keen. If it was amazing I might consider it for $5, but that's not even a sale price.
Also I thought Evilore and/or someone else was already posting in this thread about how horrible Serious Sam HD performance was, but I might be mistaken.

Cheesy, dated. It's a HD release for people who have nostalgia.gregor7777 said:

Nostalgia alone isn't worth $24.

Serious Sam HD, $10, my wish has been granted!
I was eying that iD pack before, but now it's no question! That makes 2 so far.
If someone can convince me on LFD2, it might end up making 3, but I'm not normally in to multiplayer stuff, I prefer game to have some sort of structure that is beatable.
All in all, a pretty good round of sales, if each day I buy 2 games, that could be some serious damage by Jan 3rd!

I think it has now become painfully obvious that you should only shop the daily deals at least until the last day of the sale which is January 3rd
almost bought the iD Super Pack last night, boy am I happy I didn't now

I'm getting the id Super Pack myself.
I only had the Doom games before (on Steam), and I've been wanting access to Wolfenstein, Hexen, and Heretic for a while now. Seems like a good deal to me.
Tried the demo for the first SS game. Hated it. It's a FP arcade twitch shooter, and nothing like Doom, IMO.

Picked up Defense Grid, and the Borderlands Zombie expac last night. Just picked up the id super pack and SS:HD. Used to play the original SS with my bro when I was younger and I guess even if it's just a pretty version of the game I used to watch him play it'll still be awesome for nostalgia reasons.

..but cry so much I wish I had some
Just went for the ID super pack as well as L4F2. It's not the craziest deal ever for L4D2 but my brother is getting it for christmas from his girlfriend either today or tomorrow and I'd like to be able to play coop with him so I got it. Still not sure if I'll order Serious Sam before the end of the day though, it is tempting me...
And yes, it seems some of the deals from yesterday are still up. Nothing interesting for me since I already owned most of them, but for those who forgot to buy them get them while it lasts!

It's in it's own class in the FPS genre. The gameplay still hasn't been replicated. Closest I've seen is Painkiller.

God damnit. I have 0 dollars in my account until next week, and I want Stalker so badly. Since it's still $2 today, will it be that price until January 3?

ID super pack looks great, I want to replay DooM 3 at more then 20fps so for a few pennies more I can get every game must think on it.

Question - I'm using a 4 year old pc right now and hope to get a new pc sometime next year. Any games that I currently have on Steam - when I get my new pc, I can still redownload all my existing games onto the new pc for free, correct? Has anyone tried doing that? Also, anyone have any idea how Serious Sam will run on a 4 year old pc? I have a 3.4 ghz processor, 1 gig of ram, and geforce 6800.

id Super Pack is a great value, but I already bought it. I'm really considering buying Serious Sam HD. It's at a good price and dedicated servers and deathmatch will be added soon
You can download and install mostly every game on any computer without a problem. For some games though, you might run out of activations and have to use a tool to remove activations or call up cs and have them free it up.
