Voted Master Reboot because it looks great. Come at me, York.
I'm kicking myself for not picking up CSD when it was 2.50
what the hell kind of gaffer am I anyway if I can't support one of us via game sales? seems like a great game to play between games too
edit: but you should make time for spelunky. it's just as good as everyone says it is.
Does this work for GamersGate as well?
True, which is why I said "one of". I admit it sounded rather vague
Do you still have the list handy of holiday DLC-count adding stuff you wanted?
I got something for realm of the mad god I'm never going to use anyway, but I don't know if it's one of the ones that would add something.

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.
That'll come in handy!
Are you running out of things you can add yet?
Hardly! At any given point in time I typically have 25-30 things that need to be done.

All gone guys sorrys!
Damn Lurkers
probably
I don't think I would've taken it anyway, would feel bad just to snatch a game off someone like that. I only enter the occasional raffle.

Time to switch the type of tea you're drinking.
What kind are you drinking currently?
Support the dev!
At least you didn't buy the soundtrack after playing it for hours on Vita only to have the game (and the soundtrack) to go on sale @ 75% off for the weekend deal.
This is a bit offtopic -- but what do you guys code in?
I have computer science experience and might be willing to try to help out, if it's something I know or can pick up quickly.
I added you on Steam, btw.
Parity is close between them, but the Vita version suffers from slowdown in some cases -- like when you have snow falling in the ice caves or when the dead are restless in the jungle. Most recent patch was supposed to fix it, but you can still run into it.
The correct answer here is BUY BOTH.
Spelunky was on sale on both NA and EU PSN recently for <$4.
It's on sale now on Steam for <$4.
So even if you bought both, you'd be spending < 50% of the actual price of the game and getting a quality portable port and the pc copy the way it's meant to be played.

How does the PC version of Spelunky compare to the Vita version? Not exactly expecting visual parity, but so long as they're close I'm tempted to go for the Vita version just for the portability.
Yep.

Edit: PayPal still hasn't removed the hold on my $19 refund. Ridiculous.

Sorry for being such a newb but if I email to myself, it will actually give me the Steam key? I'm worried it will just give me a link to add the game to a Steam account (because that's what happened when my mate gifted me Borderlands 2 GOTY).

aka IMurRIVAL69
have both.
vita version is good, but i prefer it on PC because it's easier to suss out your surroundings on the big screen. honestly tho you can't go wrong either way.
Nice
As long as ModBot is fed a link or key of some sort, it should work fine
This is a special game that shouldn't be missed if are down to your last funds choose this game.
Okay, so it's one of those, but...
I only have a sell button, even though it's marked as tradeable.
Volvo, pls.
It will have a link in the email that needs to be clicked to redeem it to the account.
(If you copy this link (without the ?redeemer bit and gift it with modbot, the person that got it will click it, be added to your friends list and then Steam will gift it to them)

Thanks, I'll just go for it and pick up both!
ModBot is like Mr.Fusion, he takes anything to fuel the giveaways

Well, I did play this on vita recently but "free" (PS+).
Ill double dip, the soundtrack is amazing.

Everybody is voting for Deadly Premonition right?
Better be...
Better be...
Do you want it to win? Whatever Gaf votes loses so...
I don't think I can find the proper translation, I'm sorry. In here it's called "cidreira" and the only translation I got from google was "lemon balm" which seems to be a little off.

Enhanced Steam's code is primarily javascript / jQuery. The code is available here, if you have anything you'd like to add feel free to submit a pull request.
If you need an idea of something to do, let me know.

I barely even spent any money this winter... like 10 bucks
And we still have like a full week of sales left....

Seriously, I've been not-contributing this whole sale and never win a thing.
Not that I care really, I have been gifted a lot of stuff from some really great people.
I had to look up Crunch on youtube to see if that was the level I thought it was, and the first thing the guy in the video says is "I actually had to come back to this one." Yeah, it's pretty brutal in single player.

Assuming all those games are from this sale and you say you spent 10 bucks, are you just winning the lottery in every raffle here?
First thing I tried, but it just doesn't sh...
Damn it, I only looked at Community items, but of course this is under "Item Rewards" which don't get shown by default.
Derp.
You have more than the conspicuous 5 posts
I've been having issues crashing to desktop (with no error message) in the Nightclub mission, specifically when in casing mode while another person hosts the game. I've done everything short of deleting and redownloading the game but I have yet to find a solution.
Otherwise I haven't had any repeatable crashes, though it has (seemingly) randomly crashed maybe 5 times in the 70 hours I've played.
Twice? More like 6 times these days

Just picked up Dark Souls, Gone Home, Spelunky, and Hotline Miami. I still need to get Brothers and The Walking Dead Season Two.
Community Choice and Flash sales are pretty, uh, random. Sometimes a game will lose a vote and never go on sale, sometimes you see the same thing over and over again. The people in charge of the sales are too busy working on Alien Swarm 2 to care.

They aren't only from this sale. Some were gifts. 2 I won by random luck. 1 from gaf, 1 from twitter. The rest were from selling steam cards.

The "Long Live the Queen" factor?
Should be a daily at some point.
Just downed the Kayran in The Witcher 2. Was kind of annoying in some attempts because the camera would position itself randomly after cutting off a tentacle which would result in me getting smashed and losing up to 90% of my life :/
But I finally felled the nasty creature and it's time to collect my rewards!!

Well, we still have time in this sale, so maybe, maybe not. Previous sales, especially the first time they had voting? You had a reason to get mad at the community.
