Apparently some others browse all the threads and don't live almost exclusively here.
I only browse the other threads in an open tab (spawned from this thread lol) when I'm bored.

Swoot, season pass acquired. The only thing that'd make me feel better is if it was an error and was changed again.

Me too.
Then again, it's 2:30 in the morning on the west coast and I'dimagine someone would have to manually fix the price for it to revert back

Hey, is the Mark of the Ninja DLC worth it for somebody who already completed the game?

Contrast is 75% off on GMG.
I'm thinking on grabbing it, since it'll be cheaper than what I'd pay in the January Editor's Choice at Amazon with the 5$ credit. I'm starting to wonder what the hell will I do with all the Amazon 5$ credits this year...

I'm not sure if it is a pricing error again, but I jumped on the Bioshock Infinite Season Pass at $5 while I could. Couldn't pass that up.

That Bioshock Infinite season pass pricing error sure seems to be taking a long time to be fixed... why do I get a feeling that 2K/Steam just pulled a fast one on us?

If you bought it for yourself and it's in your library, nope. But if you bought it as a gift and stored it in your inventory, yes.

What's the downside from always buying as a gift and storing it in my inventory? It seems like I should do that and if I decide to play the game, then I can just add it to my library when the moment strikes.

It sounds like it keeps options open.

There's probably a lot of sore heads and slow recoveries within that group of staff this morning.

There is no downside. Gift purchases don't expire or anything of the sort.

There is no downside other than it not immediately increasing your game total :)D) and honestly now that you mentioned it, I'm tempted to start storing them as gifts too.

No downside at all. That's the only way I buy my games for that same very reason. Unless I know I'll play it immediately, always... ALWAYS in gift form right to my inventory.

JaseC, I am slowly overtaking your place as best Clean Driver on the leaderboards for Sleeping Dogs.

Your time is ending, my friend.

Ooooh Sniper Elite V2. I might have to get that. Played the demo multiple times. The slo-mo x-ray kill cams were so addicting.

So we think the Bioshock Infinite Season Pass sale was an error? Either way I'm so glad it finally went on sale for any reason
Click to expand...
Don't know. Perhaps this was intended all along, but the first time it *was* an error and they just let the cat out of the bag too soon.

Its fantastic, though. I actually really enjoyed Infinite and am looking forward to getting back into it.

Unhappy new year for me. I missed the Animal Crossing new year's event.

Maybe Gabe has one more round of new(ish) deals instead of encore.
