Just a bit of friendly advice, but you might want to add a few lines about why you are recommending the title.

Out of curiosity I looked up the DOTA 2 Legendary holiday item on the Market
300 UNITED STATES AMERICAN USA DOLLARS
Then the next person sold theirs for $11.50

Any idea how the PC port is? I'm about to pull the trigger on it for $8.16 at Green Man Gaming but if it runs poorly I may not bother since I already have an unopened copy on PS3.

the console versions run at like low 20 fps most of the time, a modest PC can get 60 out of the PC port as far as I know?
edit: there is a demo

What time is it?
It breaks whenever I spin, so annoying.

Sell your PS3 copy and get this. SO much better.
Read this review and dispel any thoughts of buying that turd: http://www.incgamers.com/2013/11/x-rebirth-review
DayZ finally dethroned.

Sure, but if the PC port is terrible and won't run much better I can save myself close to $10. Considering I may never even get around to playing it even if I do buy it I'd just like to know that it runs well or doesn't have any sort of weird performance caps to worry about.
It runs and looks great in engine, during normal gameplay. The cinematic cutscenes are blurrier and suffer from more aliasing (the game itself looks fine in those regards) and I was unsure what was up with that.
$15 on GetGamesGo

Says Mac, but also works on PC.

Thats been a long 30 mins Turfster...
On my phone and in class can you elaborate more on this? Is it an issue? I am interested in getting the flash sale...
bender
What time is it?
I've skipped sales on it three times but I'm going in next time.
Does the roulette say "ERROR: integer out of range" for JaseC?

The demo ran great on my not super great PC when I ran it a while back.
There's two other Ys games that are still at their normal (discounted) price.

The PC version is MUCH better. Money well spent.
Apparently the 14.99 price was a mistake. Their mistake since I'm not buying it at the 29.99 price.

What's the lowest it's been so far? I've been looking to grab it
Probably was hoping Ys Origin and Ys: The Oath in Felghana were on the deeper discount as well. Hopefully they see a later flash/community/daily sale..
Been trying to catch up with this thread. I saw people were adding their steam ID a few pages back, here's mine in case anyone wants to add me. I don't have any GAF friends (yet!)

Will I missed out on anything? I noticed the flag sale one has a + symbol in it.. What does that mean?

Thanks, that's the sort of info I was looking for. I've had that PS3 copy for years and keep telling myself I'll play through the game since I like Castlevania and God of War, which it seems to be a mix. And starting this past Thanksgiving I'm trying to be more of a PC gamer so rebuying more of my console stuff has been helping me play through it.
But then there's the usual concern of spending money now but other neat stuff go on sale later and funds aren't infinite. Steam is so rough!
It had a great run.

I'd normally recommend Oath in Felghana (Followed by Origins) for those new to the series, but those games aren't currently included in the Flash Sale (They'll likely go on sale if/when Ys is a Daily Deal). Ys I & II Chronicles+ is a good version of the original duology (and there likely won't be a better price for it than this), but the gameplay mechanics and stock storyline elements might turn new players away.

Just read it, it was pretty much the only game I wanted coming into 2014 besides Dark Souls II and Witcher 3... what a shame.
Well, I figured I might as well keep going the rest of the evening. My blood's boiling anyway
But hey, I won Brothers, so thanks gimel!
That's part of the title. Haha.
Added you!

At least you got something for your misery.
Thanks mang
That might be even more impressive than Day Z being on top for so long. It seems like the public opinion on Skyrim has only gotten more and more negative the further we've come since release.
That said, I just started playing it this month myself and it absolutely would have been my 2011 game of the year. Watered down or not, there's just something about Bethesda games that grabs me and doesn't let go until I've finished them once or twice.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Apparently it's also this price on Amazon (they price matched Steam but haven't fixed it since Steam did)

IF YOU ARE STILL THINKING ON GETTING YS, SEE THIS IMAGE.
NOW YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!
Hahaha, this is so true, I am now playing Ys Origin, and the game is awesome.
