What's good about it then? I thought everyone was just talking about it because it's, "Haha, dating sim with pigeons". What else is there to it?

It's actually not a dating sim at all, and explaining exactly what it is would ruin the surprise. Let's just say that you are in for a hell of a ride, and it's nothing like what you expected from seeing it at a first glance.

Two days of encore sales and less games on sale each day? Nice to see Steam stepping up to the competition from GMG, Amazon, etc.

Ikaruga never going on sale, because of the lost community vote. Treasure realized Steam Community didn't like Ikaruga.

Yup, I was holding out for that and Double Dragon Neon since they got screwed over during the summer sale. Nope!

The wait continues, this sale was especially disappointing, much price hikes.

I think I'm going to go in on the Dead Rising pack, doubt the sale price will get much lower than that for the foreseeable future, might even go up after the GFWL removal.

Torn on Dark Souls 2. Would run much better on my PC than it does on the PS3 (which I already own) and it's only $15. On the downside, it's not as good as Dark Souls 1 so I'm not sure if I want to double-dip. Plus, there's that enhanced version coming out soon.

I think you should wait for the upgrade myself, especially if you've already played it.

If you're in doubt you should just wait for the enhanced version. It comes with the DLCs too so that's already a large incentive to wait. Not too sure what the retail price for that is though.

I've got a copy of Double Dragon I would trade you for a CS:GO Breakout key.

Also, is Borderlands 1 worth buying/playing, or should I just go for 2? Have always been tentatively interested in the series, and I might snag one if Amazon price matches since I have credit there. And GOTY editions for both, correct?

Trails in the Sky is really good if you like story & character-heavy JRPGs. It's a bit on the slow side though so be warned.

FFXIII-2's story isn't too hot, but the gameplay is a lot of fun (13's battle system + monster collecting + no huge tutorial) & there's some amazing music.

I'm looking for a good, cheap, easy to run arcadey FPS. I already got Shadow Warrior but the performance is not too great, but playable.

I have a bunch of shooters already, so it's a little difficult to find one.

Time for me to finally play Stick of Truth. I kind of want Wolfenstein as well but might wait, my budget is pretty tight right now from my xmas and vacation.

I personally like the first one better than the second (I liked the humor and loot better) and would tell you to play it first, but I think most people would probably tell you to just buy the second one.

Well, I'm done with the Steam (and GMG) Sales. The damage was:

-Metal Gear Solid V : Ground Zero
-Rocksmith DLC
-Grid Autosport
-Super Meat Boy
-Transformers: Fall of Cybertron
-Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
-Super Time Force Ultra
-Metal Slug III
-Metal Slug X
-Battleblock Theater
-Doom 3 BFG
-Bit Trip Runner 2
-Cloud Built
-Freedom Planet

I spent more than I expected. Hope I can at least finish half of them before next year's sale.

Encores already? I was hoping Freedom Planet would be a daily deal. I could have gotten it for cheaper during the Humble Sale.

Was Dead Rising 2 ever on sale for cheaper than it is now on Steam?
