Fools better buy Hearts of Iron III. One of the best damn games of 2009.

 

[Dark Stalkers]

boooo

 

[speculawyer]

Damn . . . Popcap complete. Tempting.


Aaaaand crash goes the website. :lol

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

I think I'll get Zombie Driver. I was hoping that Dead Space would end up being like $2-$3 :\

 

[Dennis]

Is steam down for anybody else?

 

[Dynoro]

Meh, no Borderlands. That's the last game I want.

Still almost a week to go though

Spoiler

I'm waiting too

 

[Parham]

I don't know, it just goes by in a flash before restarting.

Everything else I bought via Steam works - even the notoriously buggy STALKER - but not Battlefield 2?! WTF?

Oh yeah, and Torchlight is awesome.

Go to Start -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Startup and Recovery -> Settings -> System Failure -> Un-check "Automatically restart"

This will keep your computer from automatically restarting. Try playing the game again and see what error code it brings up. The error code will likely tell us what the problem is.

 

[Brandon F]

Dead Space have native 360 pad support?

 

[noisome07]

Is steam down for anybody else?

Nope, it's working but it's a little sluggish.

 

[graywolf323]

I'll probably grab Hearts of Iron III and maybe Zombie Driver

is the PopCap Collection worth it if you already own Heavy Weapon Deluxe, Peggle Deluxe and Plants vs. Zombies?

Dead Space have native 360 pad support?

it's not a GFW title so I'm guessing no?

 

[Angelus Errare]

Dead Space have native 360 pad support?

yes

 

[Dennis]

HoI III is mine.

 

[Archie]

I might grab Zombie Driver, but today is pretty weak.

 

[DirtRiver]

Day of Defeat and Dead Space for me.

I enjoyed DoD when I played a while back and I have been wanting to get it for some time so 2 euros seems a decent price.

Dead Space is one of those I will dip just for the sake of it. Don't usually like terror games but I have heard good praise for this one.


How the hell will I play all of these games...

 

[Rur0ni]

Hmm, watched Zombie Driver trailer. Seems I'll pick up 3 out of the 5.

 

[Visualante]

Dead Space have native 360 pad support?

It's not GFW Live, but you definitely need to play it on a pad. I found it really difficult to calibrate my aiming on the mouse mentally. It's playable just not that fun with mouse and keyboard. I would guess you can hook it up manually with xpadder or something.

Would appreciate some Zombie Driver impressions.

 

[Screaming_Gremlin]

Only thing I am getting today is Hearts of Iron III.

 

[Spwn]

A bit disappointed in today's deals. At least my money is safe. Already got Zombie Driver when it was released and it is a fun little game, althought very repeative. For the sale price I'd say you should buy it.

 

[Akia]

I bought 3 copies of Torchlight in the past week. One copy at $10 and two gift copies at $5. Even though it was discounted this week, they still got me for $20 original price.

I think Runic wins this round.

 

[BlueScrote]

Popcap collection is very very tempting. Anyone have thoughts on the less well known games (i.e. not PvZ, bejeweled, bookwork)

 

[Alaskanbullworm]

Been wanting to pick up DoD for awhile now.

 

[epmode]

Dead Space have native 360 pad support?

I'm pretty sure it's native, yes. I have to use a 360 pad emulator but that's only because I'm not using the regular drivers.

The game's nearly unplayable with a mouse so a pad is the way to go.

 

[Dina]

Finished DS en HoI3 seems a bit too hardcore for me. So I'll skip.

 

[graywolf323]

[Jirotrom]

hearts of iron doesnt come with all the expansions? are they necessary?

 

[Brazil]

Nothing for me today too. I considered getting Day of Defeat, but I don't need any other Source multiplayer shooters with CS and TF2 on my games list.

Great deals on Dead Space (if you have a 360 pad) and the PopCap Collection, though.

It's also all unnecessary it should be said.

Hearts of Iron III has no expansions, only useless DLC that doesn't affect gameplay.

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

All I really want now is SF4 - but it has to be really cheap to make me double-dip with Super around the corner. I'll also bite on anything 'good' for a really cheap price (Like Lumines).

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

So would HoI 3 be worth it for someone who couldn't even get into the HoI 2 demo?

 

[noisome07]

I don't think there's expansions.. pretty much just extra sprites/music and what not.

 

[Kabouter]

That depends on your issues with the HoI2 demo.

 

[Zzoram]

Weak sales today. Why is Dead Space going for $10 instead of $5? Didn't it come out at the same time as Mirror's Edge?

 

[clav]

Do many people still play Day of Defeat: Source?

 

[Zzoram]

Do many people still play Day of Defeat: Source?

~5000 are playing right now.

 

[graywolf323]

not expansions just DLC

it's not needed but just thought people who might be interested would like to know its cheap right now

 

[Tim-E]

Do many people still play Day of Defeat: Source?

Over 5,000 people are playing it right now, and I don't think that's heavily influenced by the Steam sell just yet because it only went up 20 minutes ago.

 

[Rur0ni]

Do many people still play Day of Defeat: Source?

Plenty. Easily worth the $2.50 I'd say.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

That depends on your issues with the HoI2 demo.

Just found it a bit overwhelming. Plus I don't think I gave it much of chance when I tried it.

Anyways, I found a demo of HoI 3 and will try it out: http://www.gamershell.com/download_49276.shtml?gr_i_ni

 

[dimb]

Do many people still play Day of Defeat: Source?

Yeah, you shouldn't have too tough a time finding a game. DoD:S is a good pick up at this price, but it's been on sale for $5 like a year ago. Same goes for Dead Space, was only $15 during the pre-holiday sale. Today is a really boring day for the sale.

Weak sales today. Why is Dead Space going for $10 instead of $5? Didn't it come out at the same time as Mirror's Edge?

Because people actually want to play Dead Space.

 

[Eaten By A Grue]

Do many people still play Day of Defeat: Source?

Current Players: 5,378 (http://store.steampowered.com/stats/)


IMO DoD:S has one of the best gaming communities compared to other multiplayer games.

 

[speculawyer]

Dead Space have native 360 pad support?

it's not a GFW title so I'm guessing no?

yes

Ack. Which is it? It is not GFW and it doesn't list game controller support on the steam store web page.

 

[grandjedi6]

Weak sales today. Why is Dead Space going for $10 instead of $5? Didn't it come out at the same time as Mirror's Edge?

It also sold better than Mirror's Edge, so...

 

[drizzle]

I was thinking about buying Zombie Driver for a while, but looking upon it... I think I rather pay 5 USD on a good game I won't play (because I already finished it) and buy republic commando instead of paying 2,50 on a repetitive game I wont play (because I have too much shit already).

 

[monkeycrap]

I'm picking up Zombie Driver today.

Speaking of zombies, I've been playing Zombie Shooter and its really fun. It gets repetitive after awhile but its one of those mindless games you play between other games. Totally worth the $1.24 I paid for it with this sale.

 

[Lostconfused]

Ack. Which is it? It is not GFW and it doesn't list game controller support on the steam store web page.

Yes there is controller support.

 

[SephriJ]

Shitty-Deal Sunday

Agreed!

 

[nubbe]

mmmm... Popcap collection is quite tempting... perfect for casual gaming

 

[Kabouter]

mmmm... Popcap collection is quite tempting... perfect for casual gaming

Hearts of Iron III is perfect for not-so-casual gaming .

 

[clip]

Dead Space is completely playable with a mouse, what are you guys talking about?

 

[Big-E]

Just finished Mirror's Edge and it was really nice and short. The $5 was worth it though I can see if I payed full price for it consoles I may have been disappointed.
