I definitely don't understand this. Just use a CD crack or something if you own the disc version.

That's definitely a chore when you format as often as I do. If you're just managing one or two games, fine, but when it gets to a few hundred games like with Steam, then it's an issue. Also, Steam really is the easiest way to back up games across Windows installs, since it'll fix all the registry issues for you the first time you run each game. I couldn't imagine having to install all the games I own on Steam manually.

Rainbow Six 3 is in my shopping cart. I checked out a video and the one major difference I noticed from the original Ghost Recon is that the enemies aren't as fast, they're not psychic.

The one thing that get's me the most about Ghost Recon is that an enemy will kill me with a perfect shit within not even half a second of first seeing me. If I peek around a corner and he's there, I'm dead.

So what's everyone hoping for here in the daily deals? Personally:

Arma II
Oblivion
Mount & Blade
GTR Evo

I'm like 95% sure we'll see Mass Effect for those who are waiting. It's on no discount at all right now, so it seems pretty obvious it's being set up for a daily deal.

 

[RedSwirl]

Goddamn I just realized that the whole Lucas Arts adventure pack is $2.50.

How are Last Crusade, Loom, and The Dig? I found a complete download for Fate of Atlantis with voice acting instruction booklet PDF, but the puzzles are kicking my ass. I'm dangerously close to FAQing the whole thing.

Also, do these old games through Steam still run through SCUMMVM?

All I want is Fallout 3 GOTY for the price it was at for those few minutes yesterday And Lost Planet Colonies Edition for $10 if they put that up on Steam sometime...

 

[Firehead]

They pretty much covered what I wanted - the id collection. ArmA II would be nice, maybe CoD4 and Dragon Age.

 

[derder]

Was COD:MW1 reduced last year?

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Well, I'm hoping for Arma 2 for $19.99 or less, Shattered Horizon for $9.99 or less, The Ship for $4.99 or less, Devil May Cry 4 for $9.99 or less, and Silent Hill Homecoming for $9.99 or less.

Was COD:MW1 reduced last year?

Yes, it was reduced to $37.49, so 25% off.

Fallout 3 (as said repeatedly :lol ) and the Fallout Collection would be nice too, especially since the latter isn't discounted at the moment. Mass Effect as well. ME 1 this year for PC, ME 2 next year for PC.

 

[speculawyer]

So what's everyone hoping for here in the daily deals? Personally:l.

I hope they don't offer anything I'm interested in so I stop buying games.

 

[wenis]

Guh im really hoping the crysis package goes on sale or at most just Crysis.

 

[Brandon F]

I'm hoping for a Risen discount, just played the demo and it seems awesome.

 

[Teknoman]

I got gifted Stalker, but for some reason everytime I click on the gift link, it says this page cannot be displayed. Its not in my "not installed" section either...unless I was gifted the game on accident :lol

 

[Brashnir]

I hope they don't offer anything I'm interested in so I stop buying games.

yeah, this...

Though if they have to tempt me, I could go for some Dragon Age or Risen.

 

[timkunedo]

I'm hoping for a Risen discount, just played the demo and it seems awesome.

You and me both. I purchased Gothic 3 and am loving it. Can't wait to play through Risen.

 

[dani_dc]

So what's everyone hoping for here in the daily deals?

Hoping for the Witcher to be further discounted myself.

 

[evlcookie]

What a lame set of daily discounts. Bring on tomorrow i say!

 

[Koojay]

So what's everyone hoping for here in the daily deals?

I'm really hoping they drop Defcon below $10, would be an instant buy for me.

Other than that, hopefully MW2 drops in price some and maybe Torchlight to $5.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Hoping for the Witcher to be further discounted myself.

It's 66% off already, how much more can you ask?

Just buy it.

 

[fresquito]

L4D2 at 16,12€ if you get the four pack says you're wrong.

 

[vocab]

I'm just hoping for Mass effect for like $1-2. Other than that, there's nothing I want. I'm on the fence about some other things, but I'm gonna wait till the last minute to buy them.

 

[dani_dc]

It's 66% off already, how much more can you ask?

Just buy it.

I'm going to buy it either way, which is why I rather have it further discounted.

Plus I rather wait until the last day to pick it up to avoid being frustated if the price drops further.

 

[Brannon]

I got gifted Stalker, but for some reason everytime I click on the gift link, it says this page cannot be displayed. Its not in my "not installed" section either...unless I was gifted the game on accident :lol

Try restarting Steam to see if it'll work that way.

 

[evlcookie]

L4D2 at 16,12€ if you get the four pack says you're wrong.

It's L4D, So no thanks.

 

[K.Jack]

Is Red Faction Guerilla money at $20?

So what's everyone hoping for here in the daily deals?

Fallout 3 rounded down to $30 is all that matters to me now.

Funds just got tight.

 

[Korranator]

gahhh caved in and got the Telltale Pack........

That should take care of my adventure fix for the next year or so.

 

[randomlyrossy]

Is Red Faction Guerilla money at $20?

I can't speak tot he PC port but I loved it on 360, all the destruction stuff is immensely satisfying and loads of fun.


On a side note I find it kinda funny that Modern Warfare 2 is still in the top five despite the fact everything else is on sale and it remains at a stupidely high price.

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

I posted this in the Official Steam thread but I figure I might as well post here too. It looks as though a DICE complete package is coming. I am not sure what it includes, how much it will be, and if it will be released during the span of this sale, but be aware nevertheless.

 

[Teknoman]

Try restarting Steam to see if it'll work that way.

Nope, still blank. Strange because the first time I booted it, the game was in the not installed list. After restarting, it wasnt.

It's L4D, So no thanks.

But but....L4D2 is great...

Where are you getting this from?

 

[dock]

Does anyone recommend any games on sale for a netbook?
(my laptop is similar spec to a netbook... *sob*)

I think only Valve games allow you to gift duplicate copies. You'll just have to grin and bear it for the rest of 'em.

Ah, bugger. No problem, it's still a good deal

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Torchlight even has a netbook mode. Try it.

 

[Sascha23]

OMG, if I didn't already own most of the adventure games on there, I would be flipping out right now.

The Dig for $2.49? Indigo Prophecy for $3.99? Machinarium for $10?

Or how about the Complete Telltale Collection for $49?

If you don't own these games and even remotely heart adventure games, you would be crazy not to get them.

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

Where are you getting this from?

A buddy.

 

[Peronthious]

Torchlight even has a netbook mode. Try it.

I would recommend against this. The Netbook mode isn't really a netbook mode at all, unless you consider 10 FPS playable. I have a laptop with specs considerably over your average netbook - Intel 965GM, 2.4 Core 2, 2GB RAM - and I barely get 15 at 800x600 with everything on low and netbook mode on, especially when the action ramps up.

Yeah the Lucastarts Adventure bundle for a no brainer, I grabbed that on the first day. Gifted Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy to my buddy who had been interested in it too, he in turn just gifted me Serious Sam which we are gonna play some co-op with in a bit. Love this sale <3

 

[Kleevah]

So what's everyone hoping for here in the daily deals?

King's Bounty: Armored Princess! (I know it's already somewhat discounted, but i'd love a see it at a must-buy price)

On a side note I find it kinda funny that Modern Warfare 2 is still in the top five despite the fact everything else is on sale and it remains at a stupidely high price.

It's ranked by revenue. So some games might have to sell around 15 copies to match 1 copy of MW2.

 

[dock]

Yeah, Torchlight's netbook mode is a bit too slow for machine. It kinda runs, but I can't imagine wanting to spend many hours with it like that.

 

[52club]

If you are debating on Outrun, I can confirm a wired 360 controller works without any issues.

 

[Ermac]

Damn just noticed Puzzle Quest is $5. Should I jump on it or just wait for #2?

 

[Label]

Ahhhh so close on pulling the trigger on Torchlight, if it does not go on the day sale tomorrow I will just buy it.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Damn it, all my buddies have L4D2, I so want this game. Anyone doing a group buy?

 

[Oreoleo]

Damn just noticed Puzzle Quest is $5. Should I jump on it or just wait for #2?

If you've never played it before I say go for it. Don't wait

 

[Feel the Swift]

Is Unreal still pretty popular. The pack deal is insane.

Doubt it'll be released during the sale, considering only BF2 is on Steam and 2142 won't be up for a few months (the person who is going to get it 'ported' to Steam is working on Bad Company 2).

Unfortunately I think you are correct.

 

[Oreoleo]

Is Unreal still pretty popular. The pack deal is insane.

Funny thing is I think last year's sale had a better deal for the Unreal games than this year. UT '99 will ALWAYS have people playing it, and UT3 is a worthy successor to the first. It's a little more cut and dry than the iD pack. If you like the games, there's no reason not to be buying the pack.

 

[Sanjay]

How is The Witcher?

Only the best RPG thats come out in the last many or so years.

 

[GuessWho]

Is Braid a difficult game?

ghostbusters worth it?
Outrun worth it?
