I've only been gone for a day and the new thread already has so many pages I almost didn't notice it's new. Did anything crazy happen? Price mistakes? Mindboggling deals?

Another day, another lack of Spelunky

So, uneventful, basically.

 

[Erekiddo]

A lot of these are repeats. That's disappointing.

I own Terraria on the 360, but I guess I'll double dip. Who turns on the 360 anymore, anyways.

is steam getting hammered atm? my download speed has shot through the floor....been waiting over an hour for 700MB to download and it's still an hour left >< checked my speed even tried downloading something on my consoles and it's fine :S

No Spelunky, no Volgarr, no Dark Souls. I mean, good thing I have them all already but as many people as possible should get to enjoy them.

When I finally get the urge to play Civ5, it doesn't go on sale.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Want your mind blown? Go to Bad Rats store page. Look at the most helpful review.

wow lol

 

[Cth]

Its probably not the last chance and its already been a featured deal. Gone Home will probably win.

It'll be amusing to see the flood of "Best game ever" "Worst game ever" posts if it does win.

Great day for sales. Wish Payday 2 came down lower though.

From what I hear, just don't bother with Payday unless its dirt cheap or you have 3 other friends to regularly play with

Try changing download server in the settings.

It was on sale like 2 days ago. Upgraded mine to gold edition just for the heck of it, even though I'm not sure I'll ever get back to it.

$20 for Civ V Gold + Brave New World. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ELJROFA/?tag=neogaf0e-20
Quite possible it's been cheaper though.

edit: Cheaper:

It's over at NeweggFlash for $17, if you want to save a few bucks.

 

[Rhaknar]

I just noticed the discount on gone home will be lower than it was in the autumm sale. Fuckers

I find a -66% KOF XIII flash sale pretty crazy and am debating whether or not to pull the trigger, but your mileage may vary.

Is RollerCoaster Tycoon a horror game or why did they put that horrifying face on the grid icon

My moneys are tied to Steam ;_;

 

[Moses Donut]

Voted for Papers, Please. It goes on sale a lot but I never pull the trigger...not this time!

 

[Zeliard]

No Spelunky, no Volgarr, no Dark Souls. I mean, good thing I have them all already but as many people as possible should get to enjoy them.

I own the latter two and they're amazing.

Volgarr especially would be very neat to see in this sale as it's a relatively new game that hasn't seen as many sales so far nor gotten nearly as much exposure as a lot of other games. Anecdotally, looking at my friends list, 168 people own Dark Souls but only 31 know the glory of Volgarr.

Pretty sure it was 75% off in the Autumn sale?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Volgar and Valdis are very underrated

 

[Necrovex]

For some reason, I decided it was finally time to play DOTA II. Anything I should know prior to playing it? I only had a brief time with LoL.

If anyone here hasn't played Civ 5 I implore you to. Such a great and addicting game.

Thats how the people look when they ride my rollercoasters.

Ultimately another weird day. Luckily it goes for over one more week, so there's at least a chance something good or crazy happens.

 

[Rhaknar]

yup. Like i said, fuckers!

6 friends on my list own Volgarr. 10 have it on their wishlist.

Yes it will and it's a giant shame, that game is great even if it's only a few hours long. I also feel like that $5 pricepoint is where it shines. I really enjoyed the story and how it was presented to a ridiculous degree after going in knowing nothing.

L4D2 free

And you don't have to install the game, just to click on the "play" button on the Steam store.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

Try changing download server in the settings.

that worked for like a minute then it caved again....it seems to be dropping to dial up speeds when trying to download resi 6 :S but it's only got 700MB or so left to go

 

[Thorgal]

I don't know what to buy .

 

[Ravensmash]

For some reason, I decided it was finally time to play DOTA II. Anything I should know prior to playing it? I only had a brief time with LoL.

Id actually recommend that you just jump straight in (there are a few good tutorials also) and mess about with suggested builds in game.

Initially I tried reading up loads of stuff and it ruined the game for me - second attempt felt much better

 

[Tizoc]

Oh yeah I made a giveaway of Volgarr some days ago.

OK question regarding modbot:
In due time I may want to make a 'giveaway thread' using ModBot, is it OK if I make the thread instead of it being anonymous?

 

[Freezard]

Based Rhaknar is based.

Awesome news to wake up to L4D2 for free. I'm installing it right now anyone down to play?

I'm up for playing with holiday players, I want the new achievement!

 

[Asharakk]

Getting L4D 2 for free was a pretty nice surprise even though the todays offers leaves a lot to be desired....

 

[omg_mjd]

Well didn't expect Shelter to win. So I bought it.

 

[mannerbot]

yup. Like i said, fuckers!

Ah yeah, I thought you mean that this community vote would be a BETTER discount and you were salty about buying it in the Autumn sale. The "lower" discount part confused me.

I own the latter two and they're amazing.

Volgarr especially would be very neat to see in this sale as it's a relatively new game that hasn't seen as many sales so far nor gotten nearly as much exposure as a lot of other games. Anecdotally, looking at my friends list, 168 people own Dark Souls but only 31 know the glory of Volgarr.

Accept my friend request and that'll be 32

Spoiler

and +1 100% complete

whoo!

 

[KenOD]

I see Deus Ex: Invisible War is on another Daily Deal.

Is there a list somewhere that shows all the Daily Deals that aren't part of the Winter Sale daily showcase?

 

[KarmaCow]

Figured I might as well ask here.

Is there anything particularly wrong with this GTX 660? I've been looking for a cheap upgrade to my 460 but I'm kinda worried after seeing this same (?) 660 without the discount.

 

[hohoXD123]

It'll be amusing to see the flood of "Best game ever" "Worst game ever" posts if it does win.

/voted for Wolf Among Us

More accurately it'll be: "Best game ever! Writing was awesome!" vs "You call that a game? Go watch a movie."

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking cause I've only used modbot a couple times but making yourself anonymous is optional when doing a giveaway, I'm pretty sure it credits the person giving stuff away by default.

 

[FloatingDivider]

You broke the cardinal rule of steam sales, I don't even know what to say. Shame on you really.

 

[Tambini]

Got dungeons and dragons from amazon..hardly anyone online though

 

[BearPawB]

if i never understood how the hell to play crusader kings two.
Do i have any chance for understanding Europa 4?

 

[Mugatu]

Evo is a bit easier and has a better learning curve, but ultimately if you REALLY sucked at HD you'll probably have a hard time in this one too.

Thank you - I think I'll skip it then.

 

[Megasoum]

I'm torn on State of Decay... Is it worth it guys?

 

[Rand6]

L4dead 2 for free is a nice gift Gabe, even if I'm not interested. Thanks

Lets do it man. I'm at 51% DL, I'll add you in Steam in the meantime.
