Oh okay, that's good to know. I'll wait until it has 4 episodes at least then.
And ppl shit on Telltale for releasing an episode every 2 months.

Just logged onto Steam to check out the deals. Papers, Please at 50%? Yes, please. Hmmm....when does the deal end? Shit, it ends in 40 seconds. Just bought it, with 6 seconds left on the clock. I feel strangely pleased with myself.

Even with this, the page for the game itself is still the desktop version with AutoPlay on...
Anyway, I gotta go, have a nice day ppl

It's a communication thing, right? If they say something is monthly then expectations have been set to that. Dunno why some companies don't follow the comic book method of banking a few issues before releasing the first to mitigate delays on the second half.
That "over the coming year" line was there when the game was first listed on Steam store.
edit: oh wait I get what you mean, but over the coming year typically means throughout the rest of the year
It is more frustrating when you have to fight (and evade) enemies from every dimensions. Good lord.

Good god everybody get cook serve delicious! that's a great price for it. It's one of the most intense games you'll ever play.

I bought Guacamelee! for the Vita during the PSN sales, so no double dip for me. It's the sort of game that goes hand in hand with a handheld, if you forgive the awful pun.

So browsing in the mobile site still gives you the desktop version of each game's store page?
Someone really needs to convince me. Is it really that fun game?
Anyone that hasn't bought Euro Truck Simulator 2 yet better be buying it now. By far the best business and truck simulator out there.
Yeah I'm mildly interested in Cook Serve Delicious, someone sell me on it.

I wish Steam had the SWAT series, or at least the fourth one. Bought SWAT 3 GOTY from GoG for $5, yet I'm wondering why Steam can't get SWAT 4, because it is non-existent in digital distribution. I could've sworn Steam had it at one point.
I still do not even remotely understand the huge appeal of this game. Why would I want to drive a truck for hours on a highway? No one has been able to explain the game's appeal.

I'm in the same boat. It looks fun, but I need something more to push me over the edge. Is PC the best venue for this game? I have no idea what other platforms its out for, but I'd like to get it on the one it feels most intuitive.
I can agree with that, it's that the jumping part still haunts me :S

I don't get it either. Sounds like a chore.
That Dungeon Keeper clone one, coz the other 2 has been in a bundle couple of time.

Have to say Valve is doing a stellar job with the flash votes this year. It used to be full of repeats games I've heard of. It feels like there's a better distinction between daily deals, flash sales and community votes all round.

It's made by a GAF'er. That's reason enough to try it for 2.50, methinks.

I tried to write some sort of review for cook serve delicious a while ago but I went off the rails. You can read it here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=91637227&postcount=2210. You can also check out the giantbomb quicklook with the esteemed Mr. Ryan Davis(R.I.P). In my opinion it's totally worth it, it's a game you can play in quick spurts for a long ass time.
Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara is $9 after discount GMG20-ZB5D1-93X49 on GMG

At that discount? Well, it just went from having no chance at winning to having almost no chance at winning.

I wouldn't go that far. The percentages on a lot of the deals have been lackluster. Look at the last round - you had an F2P game where starter packs were still more than any deal, another item (PM: DX) which never changed to a daily, and two others that at most had 50% discount.
There's been next to nothing in the flash deals that's been interesting aside from Skyrim, and even that's just matching the price from the autumn sale.
I won a copy from Chubigans in one of his giveaways, and I said that if I liked it enough, I'd buy a copy to give away myself, since the game was on my wishlist waiting for a good steam sale.
Well the game is great fun and it just went on a really good sale, so here:

Wait, it's a gaffer's game?
It's one download.
I think its a bit of a novelty thing. I found it fairly enjoyable for a small period of time, but even as a huge fan of driving, it gets boring pretty quickly. The trucks are extremely slow. I mean, pulling away from a stop is painful(once the initial thrill wears off). The environments get repetitive and the locations are ridiculously repetitive and lack any unique character. The challenge of parking goes away pretty quickly once you've got it down.
Basically, its long-term appeal comes down to how much you just want to just sit there and listen to the radio as you mindlessly cruise from place to place.
You wont get separate gifts for the items you already own.

Sounds like your gripe is with the size of the discounts, rather than the selection of games.
I sure did, been longing for a game like Dungeon Keeper.
