80% tho
I loved War for Cybertron and will be filled with regret if I don't buy the sequel before it gets pulled but $12.50 is a bit too much.. Wat do?
same dilemma... lol and I have yet to buy War for Cybertron argh
It's not, but it can be if Acti loses the transformers license

Yay! Won the first Sonic MD game. Thanks a bunch!!
I can't tell who won as the post isn't updated with the "taken by" lines, but I'm guessing I didn't win what I entered for, since I don't have a PM.
It's not confirmed or anything but this is Activision and their history with licensed games isn't exactly great.

I'd jump on it:
- It's not cheaper in Eastern Europe
- It's $60 in the US, so even if it were 75% off on GameFly again and you found somebody willing to buy it for you, you'd be saving a mere 50c (factoring in the 20% discount code)
- As an Acti-published licensed game it may be on the chopping block as Acti's FY mirrors the calendar year (in other words, like the James Bond games this year, it may disappear next month)
Or dumps it (see: James Bond).
Dying at this. It's a shame I can't get the "people" interaction aspect of the game being disabled. I just hope Rocket makes the actual "game" part worth playing over killing/interacting with people that are attempting to kill you right now.

I too will be stroking my chin and pondering that question tonight, my friend - but with both Transformers titles (have been hoping to pick up the first one for what seems like forever now).
Being New Year's Eve, and almost beer o'clock, that might signal danger for my wallet, however, in its battle against common sense. Poor wallet.
You lot are a
wonderfully

I'm currently debating it too, but just FoC -- for $5, the reviews and hype for WoC was good enough you should definitely grab it.
I see JaseC bought the DLC as well, but it's all multiplayer stuff... not sure that's worth an extra $7.57 either, since the multi will probably be dead by the time I get around to playing it.
You win this time, Jase.
Where did you see it for $12.50? It's $14.99 for me...
Settings turned up.
I might bite on Fall if I didn't have so many games to play right now.
If they were going to lose the licence then they should do a damn fire sale.
You win this time, Jase.
damn.. resistance is getting futile...
ModBot 1 and 3 acted a bit funny there, but here are the winners.

I have no idea what's up it saying two people won Sonic Spinball, I only had one key for that. Unfortunately I am unable to buy another key any time soon, so it will have to be first to get it I guess. Sorry.
Do you think War for Cybertron is at the same level of risk? Never tried it, but seems like a decent game. Fall is too expensive still to justify, even under those circumstances.
The base price of the game is $50 on the AU store for some reason.
Fall is a better single player game, and a much better Transformers game from a nostalgia standpoint. They differentiate the characters a lot more, with unique mechanics most times.
Also, the last level would be a contender for best level in a video game of the generation. It's that good (the last level that is, the game is fine)

It would be the same license agreement.

Any idea if the $7.47 for DLC is worthwhile if you don't plan on playing online much?
I'm about ready to cave on FoC... but am trying to figure out if I should suck it up and buy the DLC too...
Anyone with the game know if that stuff is the online multi only or if it works in survival mode and stuff too?
I only played the single player dude sorry. I don't "do" multiplayer 99.9% of the time :/

Allllll these zombie/apocalypse open world survival games...
dayz
dead linger
7 days to die
and rust...
I am kinda leaning towards 7 days to die... its a shame all of these are on early access. I think that is just a sign that I should wait to see how things churn out.

It's cheaper -- yes, cheaper -- in Australia ($50 versus $60).
Edit: Beaten.
It's impossible to say, really. I mean, with the James Bond games, Acti could have just ceased producing retail copies and instead just stuck with reaping the benefits of digital sales for the next three years, but instead the decision was made to abandon the licence entirely.
Yeah, Defo wait. I think DayZ has the most potential being the "name brand"/start of the genre, but it needs some major work to live up to that potential.
The others are just offshoots of that doing different things from that base.
(And I guess you can throw "S.T.A.L.K.E.R." in as a "survival game" but it isn't really a survival game I feel. Some people classify it as such, so there you go...)

For all the shit Acti gets, we had Prototype 2 (and 1, I didn't check during the flash?), Deadpool, Transformers at 75%, there's still time for Spidey and Vampire Bloodlines, and we all know COD never goes more than 50% (excluding the most recent of course), it hasn't been THAT bad this time
Yes.
Yes, especially if you are a fan of G1

I have a spare of #2 and need #7 so shoot me a trade offer on Steam

Yeah, sometimes these decisions can be a bit odd. Even 2K with Prey, the amount of interest I got recently when getting retail copies proves the demand is there. But instead of 2K getting the money, it goes to retailers instead, who happen to have a bunch of old physical stock laying around. It's just throwing away money really.
trying to hit 1000 for 2014.

Thanks for mentioning this, looks awesome. Wishlisted and will buy if deeper discount happens.
I probably won't hit 1000 games. I decide not to buy too many games in 2014

Cornering the market.
Anyone want a Slime Archer skin for Realm of the Mad God?

Prey is a little different in that Zenimax assumed ownership of the IP back in 2009. 2K's publishing contract eventually expired and, since Bethesda is also a publisher, it wasn't renewed. Of course, this raises the question of why Bethesda is sitting on the original game. It's a similar situation to Quake Wars: Zenimax owns the game and it was developed by an independent studio, but despite this it hasn't returned to Steam since publishing rights reverted back to id back in 2011.
Risk of Rain is an amazing game. It scratches that Binding of Issac itch.
I'm trying to find which indiebundle games I have yet to redeem lol

Really hoping for a Rayman Legends discount. Any one else having a sale on it?
Come to think I have several games in my inventory which I haven't added to my account yet
