Not open for further replies.
Would just like to finally say thanks to this thread for heads up and all the info I've been lurking for. (I haven't logged into my account in probably 4 months because I couldn't remember the password I changed it to and remembering it has been my best gift so far!)

I' m not sure what the custom is here but after the sale is over, we should post what we got and what we spent on it. I'm close to 100$ right now :(.

I have it but never use the steam webpage, always the client.

Fail.

Why, even without Enhanced Steam, the in-client browser is poor.

There is usually a separate thread for people to post their list of games they bought and that no one else will ever read.
 
But are they region locked?

I can't confirm or deny it.

But I was checking the store and I can get the trilogy for $15 here in South America.

Triple pack is actually cheaper than Bioshock Infinite here.

Just put some time into Brothers. I'm enjoying it, and the controls used is definitely something new for me. It takes some getting used to, but you get the hang of it. Considering the 1.4gb file size, it looks quite nice as well.

For the vote, I went for Dream. Had it on my wishlist for a while, and it seems pretty interesting. And the potential discount is higher, compared to Deadly Premonition.

I wonder how much chance there is of the Scribblenauts pack appearing during Amazons January sale. $10+ is a bit high, considering I have Unlimited already. Plus, I will have a bundle of those $5 off promo codes to use already.

Is there still an active community for Star Wars Battlefront 2? Haven't played it in a few years.

I'd be interested in knowing the answer to this as well. I loved the series back in the day and that's a good price.

Holy crap, Cook, Serve, Delicious is fucking addicting.

Yes it is. Already bought it on the iPad, but tempted to double dip for the Steam version.

Only trouble is I may have to use the wireless keyboard as most of the letters have faded on my laptop's regular keyboard.

It's a great game, everyone should buy it. I loved how the controls for the iPad were.

I played it a couple of months ago and there were still people playing it. Not many people, but enough to get a couple of rounds going.

Like I said though, not many people are still playing it, so finding a server can be difficult.

So guys. I really don't like the look of the new Anno future game.

How come Steam doesn't carry the older Anno games?

OMG, I am so addicted to Rogue Legacy!

Thanks to all the people that recommended it here. Also want to thank all the generous people doing giveaways.

Due to this thread, I am playing and experiencing games I would never have given a second thought to otherwise.
 
So I just completed the first session of Superbrothers and I really have no idea how I feel about it. Does it ever start moving a little quicker or is it essentially just an interactive story?

Also, kind of thinking of jumping on the Spelunky flash deal but I've never played a platformer on PC and I'm not sure if I want to start...

Need for Speed Most Wanted 2012 isn't on steam? I swear I saw it as a flash sale before?

No you didn't.

Apart from Crysis 2, EA hasn't released anything on Steam from early 2011 onward.

edit: yeah, you most likely saw Hot Pursuit on sale.

If you have a controller it will play just like a console game.

Now I'm curious as to how it controls on the ipad. The game seems more suited for a keyboard than touch I would think.

Having the garbage service is a godsend. Buying the dishwasher next because those are also a pain in the ass.

So this is semi off-topic, but has there been any news about removing GFWL from Dark Souls? Because I purchased it with the intent to play it a year or two from now. I don't have a computer that can run it, to my knowledge (I just use my laptop to play games right now).
 
Cook, Serve, Delicious has taken my life.

Edit: Hey, thanks for Spelunky man! I get paid tomorrow, so it seems i need to bring the joy tomorrow, for sure

Thanks for the recommendations everyone, I'm going to pick them both up!

I'm not that worried about the next week, usually at the midpoint of the sales you start seeing repeats, which I don't mind: I missed out on Rogue Legacy the first time around but it should be back again as a flash deal.
