Support NeoGAF

[Dice]

Screw it I'll just buy one game....JUST ONE GAME

As someone with a huge backlog and 3 games on pre-order that are releasing in the next week, games will really have to prove themselves to me to get me to buy them.

 

[Ezra2680]

Has there been any kind of a list of games going on sale on Amazon like there has been in the past?

 

[Halo 2]

My Paypal account is loaded to the brim.

 

[fantomena]

If I buy the DLC can I play it right away? I uninstalled the game and I don't have the saves any more, or would I have to replay the campaign?

As far as I remember, yes. I also had to install the game again and I started it through the main menu.

 

[Gintoki313]

Ubisoft put Rayman Origins 75% off, I've been wating for more then three years, now it's time.

Speaking of Rayman Origins, I have a question about that. I heard Rayman Legends has a lot of the levels from Rayman Origins. If this is true, is there any point in buying both Origins and Legends? Or will Legends be enough?

 

[Mavromatis]

I'm almost ready to claim that this is the worst Summer Sale ever, that the old sales had so much to offer and end it with a nostalgic chatter about good old sales of 2011.

 

[Nzyme32]

I'm not ready for this

Amazon will have a sale as well?

 

[zsswimmer]

I wish I had some cards to sell but I dont, so Im going in dry. I have too many games though so there probably isn't going to be a lot for me to buy

I hear you on that huge backlog . I keep telling myself the only game to get this year is Civilization: Beyond Earth but I find myself buying more games. PC gaming can be annoying sometimes if you lack self control. I'm over here biting my nails and sweating hoping to see a huge discount on train simulator.

Thanks, might grab it when I get home.

Yes, Legends has a lot of the levels from Origins and I think it should be enough to not warrant buying both, even though they're fantastic games.

arent we all?

 

[derExperte]

Uh weird. I guess it's the result of the new market buy orders feature they just added, but the price of keys on the market are $2.50 now.

edit: actually nevermind, it's updating constantly. sometimes it just down a bit, then jumps back up to near $2.50. It's a bloody pseudo stock market now.

My keys I'm trying to put on the market aren't showing up. If that happens to others prices start to increase until the server catches up.

 

[shykyoichi]

Thank sprinkles for A New Beginning!

 

[mcfishstick]

Oh wow, I didn't even expect to win Rise of Nations: Extended Edition. I just quickly entered before heading out the door, but I really wanted it so thank you mcfishstick!

Hope you have fun with it!

 

[Xeroblade]

hopefully being away from steam will keep all the sales fresh for me. I'm tired of portal, magicka and countless others. Don't we all have those games by now!?

 

[Lain]

It's the 19, the sale is upon us, this thread is getting closer to a lock and it managed to almost reach 400 pages (50ppp best). I said damn.

 

[Grief.exe]

I'm not ready for this

Thanks to Target, my Steam Wallet is prepared.

 

[Danielsan]

So, are we sure that the sale is a go today?

 

[Derp]

I can't stop watching this video... It's freaking brilliant.

As sure as JaseC's gonna hold a massive giveaway soon

[The_Monk]

Guess it's time for some coffee and some nice cold drinks for later on.

Coffee anyone?

 

[Zeliard]

The truth is these guys are all lying to you. There is, in fact, no sale today.

 

[Halo 2]

Oh man this is perfect. *grabs a cup*

 

[_hekk05]

Coffee anyone?

Sale starts at 1am at my location

Coffee anyone?

Looks like a smokeuccino.

 

[Random Painted HIghway]

Oh yeah, 50 is not going to do it, who was I kidding.

Here is my id link. http://steamcommunity.com/id/randomhighway/ for any looking to add another.

 

[JaseC]

Only added $30 to my Steam wallet, but have $150 I transferred into my Paypal earmarked for either buying more Steam wallet credit, or purchasing games from other sites like Amazon or GMG.

Ready to do this.

Are you aware that the Market Transactions tab on one's account page only lists the most recent 500 actions (sales, purchases and listing creations/cancellations), as opposed to offering a complete history like the other tabs? I realised this earlier today and since the history is so limited and fragmented, I'm of the view that it makes the Market Transactions sub-total rather useless, at least in its current form.

 

[neoism]

steam sale <3 <3

 

[YianGaruga]

Isn't the 19th already over in some parts of the world? I don't think there's going to be a sale after all

 

[Dice]

I'm over here biting my nails and sweating hoping to see a huge discount on train simulator.

Then I hope you also found a huge discount on an i7-4790K because that game runs like total shit.

The smoke is hypnotizing.

I loaded up /r/steam on reddit this morning and... well there are about 30 posts asking either "why hasn't the sale started?", "I thought the sale started at midnight?", or "Are we sure the sale is today?".

Epic Valve troll if it doesn't in fact start today.

Spoiler

I even took the day off of work.

Yeah, I'm aware. It's something I've requested that Valve fix but they're unwilling to do so. I've left it in place because having those 500 actions is better than not listing it at all, but for a more complete and accurate picture just visit the market homepage with "market transaction history" turned on.

In a Valve-run world, Pacific time is the only relevant time zone.

:/ I only have an amd apu.


Thanks for the heads up.

 

[nexen]

That deal isn't still going on, is it?

 

[onken]

Ahhh come on, time cannot go fast enough.

 

[Danielsan]

godfuckingdamnitletthesalebeginsopeoplestopaskingthis

Wow there. Sorry.
It's been the 19th here forever. Didn't see a sale and I'm not a Steam Sale veteran. Should have gone through the last few pages I guess.

 

[Gintoki313]

Yes, Legends has a lot of the levels from Origins and I think it should be enough to not warrant buying both, even though they're fantastic games.

Thanks. I just looked for a list of what levels Legends has, and it seems to have 24 of Origins levels left out. So I may buy Origins, if it's cheap enough.

I love the "I thought the sale started at midnight?" as if time zones were invented yesterday.

Grief, please.

Also, funny thing I noticed during these sales, I always wake up when you go to bed.

UNLESS you are avoiding me! Ah!

 

[Hystzen]

I could do with crusader kings 2 being on sale for my MacBook I miss it in my old laptop

 

[Xeroblade]

I can't stop watching this video... It's freaking brilliant.

This is the greatest video ever made.
