I think the formula is something like this.

1. One EA game
2. One collection
3. One obscure indiegame you wouldn´t have bought without this ridicously low price
4. One game you should already own.
5. A mediocre game that needs a sale.

Which gives the following:

1. Spore
2. Elder Scrolls Complete Pack (or whatever its called)
3. Altitude
4. Psychonauts
5. Railroads!

I noticed Civilization was missing from your list. You might want to patch that in.

I don't want to invalidate my entry, nor do I want to jinx any chance of it showing up as a deal. Some things are sacred.

Crash Time II looks pretty impressive, graphically at least, for $4. Anyone have any experience with it?

This one appeared in my Steam account out of the blue, along with that Nikpol game. I didn't get that far into the game (played about an hour) but the gameplay was fairly decent. Gameplay was basically a semi-open world with missions. The graphics actually impressed me a bit (I wasn't expecting much at all).

The really really bad part of the game is the voice acting. I have never heard voice acting this bad. Not bad good, just downright bad. As if the acting wasn't bad enough, you have to listen to the "actors" sexually degrade / harass / etc.. the female dispatcher. It's the first game I actually turned the volume off due to the voice acting and subject matter. It was actually embarrassing to listen to.

If you turn down the volume, it's a decent game and I got some enjoyment out of it. I'll get back to it one day. But I got it for free (guess they added it to an indie pack I bought on Steam and they retroactively added the game to my account).

Unless you bought all the other good $4 steam games or just want a semi-open world driving game, I'd steer clear.

2.ID pack
3.Codemasters pack
4.Telltale pack
5.Valve pack

You know...just to bankrupt us into 2011

 

[gregor7777]

I know this may lead to a page or two of lists, which will annoy some, but I still cannot create a new thread, and no one won yesterday, so I'll bring this out again in here if no one minds.

If anyone can guess two of today's five deals (just the game names, not the price), then I will gift you a game of your choice (under/around $20) on Steam.

Just pick five games, like this:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

...and if two are right you win!

If a few people guess right, then the first person to get two right wins. No multiple winners, or I will be poor.

Guess' stop a little less than two hours from now, ending 10 mins before the deal goes up (so, X:50 your local time).

2. Cryostasis

[I <3 Memes]

Yes I was also curious about Crash Time 3 after seeing it in the steam store. I checked out a youtube video of some gameplay and it was absolutely the worst voice acting I've ever heard in a game. The crash physics looked fantastic though. Would like to see the engine be put to good use in a better game.

 

[Dead Prince]

I REALLY hope it's shit deals today and tomorrow :lol.

 

[domlolz]

1.Audiosurf

How much cheaper can Audiosurf get?

 

[dimb]

How much cheaper can Audiosurf get?

I hadn't even checked up on it recently. I had no idea it was only $2.50, which is a ridiculously low price.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Where was everyone when Mass Effect was 5 dollars on Direct2Drive over Thanksgiving?

It's a fantastic port aside from the low resolution film grain filter.

 

[Kuran]

What are the chances of Left 4 Dead 2 dropping further in price?

 

[Servbot #42]

What are the chances of Left 4 Dead 2 dropping further in price?

I am pretty sure none since it was already a daily deal.

 

[Papa]

be careful, though. if Steam can't connect to a GameArena server, it will search and find an Internode server or a 3fl server, and Bigpond doesn't cover that. The safest way is to download SteamWatch. It's a simple program you can turn on and off that prevents Steam from downloading from the incorrect servers. Set it so it only downloads off of GameArena.

It's really simple, but if that still is too much effort, just check for yourself. Double-click on a download, and when the progress bar comes up, make sure the logo under it says "GameArena".

Happy downloading!

Hmm... the download box says "Content hosting provided by:" followed by a blank rectangle.

How does a digital game "sell out"?

 

[Keyser Soze]

Okay, no more guesses. Best of luck everyone once again

 

[Annihilator]

How does a digital game "sell out"?

Run out of Keys. Like what happened to Prey yesterday.

Edit: Ha! I beat all you guys to the punch!

 

[Volcynika]

How does a digital game "sell out"?

They get an amount of CD Keys, and when those run out, they can't sell anymore.

 

[Dynoro]

How does a digital game "sell out"?

Steam are only allotted a set number of keys by the publisher - once these are gone they need to purchase/acquire more

 

[Killer]

How does a digital game "sell out"?

They run out of keys.

EDIT: GAF IS...fast.
