Looks like most people tried for all 3 of my BI Season passes lol

Yeah, I wasn't sure what the right approach was. If ModBot is up for a scope increase in the the future, (not that it isnt a great contribution as is) We need like a single pot, multiple prize option where everyone can enter for one prize and several winners can be selected.

Thanks for the pass by the way! I was going to buy it but then they hiked the price back up right as I went to add it to my cart. Saw your giveaway, so you saved me the trouble. Much appreciated!

 

[Dusk Golem]

There's no way Walking Dead is gonna be any cheaper, eh?

Probably not until summer/autumn sale.

 

[Guy.brush]

I wish the JUST CAUSE 2 Multiplayer mod had co-op capability...not sure if I should bother with doing the game in singleplayer.

[ShadowgeistX]

So, serious question. Is the budgeting software any good? I mean, I could kind of use something like that, but the fact that I'm buying that kind of software off of the place where I burn so much money in the first place just feels a bit off lol.

Also, considering Valdis and Civ5, anything else I should be buying this round?

Just do it. Then go online and get wrecked. I punched my closet door and it cracked....

All gameplay changes are included but you miss some scenarios and mabye civilizations.

You'll be missing content such as a few Civilizations as well as scenarios.

Actual gameplay additions are all included in BNW, so if you're satisfied with the content you get from Vanilla+BNW (which is a lot) you can skip G&K.

If you want all content the best thing to do (assuming you only have vanilla) is to buy the GOTY upgrade and BNW.

I don't think so. It was repeated in steam threads many times, but description of BNW doesn't mention it has everything that gold edition has. So, I'm not sure.

Ahh, so probably I just assumed that the "full experience" has something to do with features and instead people were talking about civilizations and scenarios.
Well then, I should have skipped G&K going directly with BNW instead of buying both, as I'm more the sandbox type (playing as Rome, because I secretly want a new Roman empire ruling the world because it'd be super cool) and don't really use scenarios or hundreds of civs.

 

[PsihoPerihelion]

Just Cause 2 for 3 bucks is just too good to be real. Any good Tropico/Caesars kind of game on sale you guys can recommend me?

By the way, I have this snow globes for exchange.

I'm looking for XCOM Enemy Unknown and The Bureau chromes (foils, trading cards or whatever the hell they are called)

Feel free to add me and ask for my globes: http://steamcommunity.com/id/psihopatperihelion/

My snow globes that is.

 

[jmizzal]

Probably not until summer/autumn sale.

isnt it a Spring sale too?

 

[Widdly Scuds]

Man I hate it when the market acts up. "There was an error performing your search. Please try again later."

[Hawkie]

Once the thread calms down post-sale I'll miss the regular impressions that people have been posting of various games. Long may it continue.

 

[Gurthang]

Is Valdis Story Abyssal City any good? Can't seem to find any reviews for it

 

[PandaPedinte]

Nice discount in Valdis Story, time to idle for cards and see if I can get the money needed for the game.

 

[James93]

I didn't know you need a budget is game. But then apparently looking at it people don't know how to use excel either.

 

[Nakazato]

^^
lol

Just do it. Then go online and get wrecked. I punched my closet door and it cracked....

My only hang up is that I have it for ps3 my Ps3 just make my room toasty as fuck and Id have a 17 gb DL to get my AE

 

[hitmon]

Is my math wrong or is it cheaper to get the SF AE game and All in costume separately ($7.49+3.74=11.23) instead of going for the complete pack (11.99)?

 

[Majukun]

only 6 snowglobes until now..i'll probably never get to have a complete set..might gonna giveaway mine if i see that i can't manage to get the full set

 

[Leatherface]

:*(

I'm in tears laughing here. I was thinking the same thing after seeing that app. Lol

P.s. No but seriously, you should buy it. You have a problem.

 

[PixyJunket]

He's banned again, lol.

Ha. Actually, this might have been his longest run yet, I was shocked.

Its nothing but a pretty excel.

 

[nbraun80]

Alright GAF I pulled the trigger on Valdis, kinda looked like mega man x and castkevania together which is cool with me. Thanks for the suggestion.

add me, dewdettes.

 

[Vecks]

Don't know. But a lot of people are buying it so... peer pressure?

 

[PixyJunket]

I'd link my review of it but I felt it was lacking for how much I loved the game.

PS: It's awesome. Part Metroid, part Devil May Cry (but don't read TOO much into that).

 

[Jive Turkey]

You literally had 7 and a half hours to grab it. Don't starve lasted 12 minutes.

If you live in the Pacific time zone it went on sale at 2am and ran through the New Year's Hangover hours. It was pretty easy to miss.

 

[Arthea]

Ha. Actually, this might have been his longest run yet, I was shocked.

can someone enlighten me for what this time?

 

[MillionVolts]

Does Street Fighter IV AE still use GFWL?

 

[steveovig]

There's still time to add me!!!

 

[denx]

well of course Valdis Story goes on sale after I blew my budget on Fall of Cybertron and the Ys games.

Geez I need to farm more cards ASAP.

 

[Anteater]

Damn it, I was waiting to see his top 2013 games.

He probably only has a worst 10 list!

 

[Grief.exe]

Does Street Fighter IV AE still use GFWL?

Yes

 

[Deques]

Does Street Fighter IV AE still use GFWL?

Yes, you have to wait until August when the Ultra Edition is released then GFWL will be dropped

 

[Pinkuss]

Its nothing but a pretty excel.

+1 for just using Excel (or any freely available spreadsheet application). Ever since getitng in to debit in my late teens I've been running the same spreadsheet which I budget with/ forecast future months. Have separate tabs for gaming purchases/ nights out/ food shopping list and all collates on the main sheet.

Is a little OCD of me and I don't follow it exactly but it helps keeping track of everything.

Also; I have £4.99 in my steam wallet after selling all my cards. Any RPG's/ Adventure games that I should get before the sale's over? (Half tempted with the original Bioshock but it's regularly cheaper elsewhere).

 

[Rhaknar]

Yes, you have to wait until August when the Ultra Edition is released then GFWL will be dropped

technically GFWL will be dropped when its dead in March or whatever it is

 

[TheSeks]

Snow Globe #5 and #8 up for grabs. PM me your Steam ID so I can send a trade request your way. First come, first served. >_>

Does Street Fighter IV AE still use GFWL?

Yes. Until August when it drops it for Steamworks with Ultra.

 

[Nakazato]

got #2

looking for 6 and 9

 

[Link Man]

Screw it , bought Valdis. Put me over my limit of $50, but just barely.

 

[Enco]

After the next flash sale, I'll pick up Half-Life 2 and whatever other $3 game I can find. It wasn't a great sale for me this time, but Dust was money well spent at least.



Amazon's sales were pretty good as well. Lots of games that were recently released were at a pretty good price. Mass Effect Trilogy for $10, Tomb Raider for $5 (iirc), Lego Marvel for $12, and Borderlands 1(GOTY)/Borderlands 2 for $10.

Forgot about Amazon. Yea they were pretty good. When thinking of GOG I was thinking about the Insomnia sale. Their winter sale was meh. My new ranking:

Humble > Amazon > Steam > GOG >> GMG

 

[Vazra]

GAF>Steam>GMG>Amazon

 

[Berek Halfhand]

I don't think Baldur's Gate II EE is going to get above 33%. Must hold out to see the last two flash sales.

 

[Grief.exe]

technically GFWL will be dropped when its dead in March or whatever it is

The game will still technically have GFWL at that point. Just the online and authentication won't work.

Yes. Until August when it drops it for Steamworks with Ultra.

Of course you have to pay for that upgrade.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

I only own Civ 5 vanilla... this DLC situation seems like madness.

$5 for Gold Edition Upgrade and $10 for Brave New World. That will get you everything.

 

[Rhaknar]

I don't think Baldur's Gate II EE is going to get above 33%. Must hold out to see the last two flash sales.

theres more than 2 flash deals left if it does end on the 3rd like the main page says, there are still flash deals going on during the encore day

 

[derExperte]

can someone enlighten me for what this time?

Going by his last posts I guess someone finally got sick of his shtick. And that's what it is a this point. Some like his snark but after his last ban he was often just trolling instead of seriously discussing, even going so far as shitting on games he liked only a few months ago. Afair he even admitted that he's not really interested in honest discussions anymore.

 

[Chance Hale]

Valdis Story worth picking up?

 

[MisterRoboto]

Don't have any doobles to give away but if anyone does and is willing to send em my way, I would be thankful and you would be cool. I need 1,4,6,7, and 9. Just PM me if you do.

 

[TheSeks]

Of course you have to pay for that upgrade.

$15 in addition to paying the $7 (at least that I paid in a 4-pack) for Super Right now > the price they want for Ultra Steamworks ($40)

I'd suggest anyone that has interest in it and wants it for Steamworks to buy it right now so when Ultra hits you get it at a cheaper price with the DLC costumes as well.

 

[Dipper145]

budget software onsale, love it.

 

[Fewr]

Valdis Story worth picking up?

Everyone says yes. Check the last few pages.
