It's going to annoy me that I'll be missing one achievement in the original release of Guacamelee but I picked up a copy of STCE just in case the price mistake is the cheapest it gets.
 
Yeah, this new sale layout totally sucks.

It doesn't really highlight the good deals, so you're stuck trudging through crap (and in my case) probably missing the good deals.

What bug? And is the new version fixes?

I'm not sure what it is exactly, but a couple of my games (Guacamelee Gold and RE6) don't respond well to RT.

Some will act like I'm holding it down, or mashing it repeatedly. So with Guacamelee I'd do a portal change, and then sudden 20 more unless I start jabbing RT again. It's also part of the reason why I went to Mouse + Keyboard less than an hour into RE6.

It might be my controller but considering this has happened in two out of the hundreds of PC and X360 games I've played (including emulators), I'd wager there's another issue involved.

Doubt Super Turbo fixes it...but oh well. It's a good game otherwise.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

I actually wouldn't mind if the Halloween sale layout will stay like this.
I very much prefer a simple and easily scannable search results page, than the huge flood of games thumbnails without the title (fuck it, ctrl+f) that they used in any other Halloween sale.

Am I the only one who prefers this sale layout. I mean, yeah, it sucks that it's not completely updated yet, but it's much better than the messy banners and deals being hidden. I much prefer it this way.

Well even in my rush of excitement I can't believe I didn't see this.
I know there's already a decent in-game system in place but Steam Chieveos aren't mandatory so it's nice that the extra work has gone in.

Image looks a bit soft in the store pics but not even close to the eye gougingly sharp PS3 original.

Whenever I see Insurgency on sale I feel like I want it but just never pull the trigger.

Definitely going to buy fear though. Does it hold up well?

The hard mode achievement. It's not tough but I don't feel like running through the entire game at the moment and I'm certainly not going to do it when the updated version is right there.

Ahh. I ended up 100%ing STCE (so much easier), then going back and finally finishing off Hard Mode in the original. You need zen-like patience for that final boss.
 

MUnited83

For you.
Didn't finish the original Guacamelee, is the TCE version different enough to warrant a purchase?

At the price it is now coupled with the previous owners discount, yes. A few new levels and powers, not too shabby. It ruins the difficulty though(too easy) and overall is mostly the same game.

That's weird. Someone gifted me New Vegas vanilla last year, not Ultimate, but when I go to the store page with enhanced steam on it shows Ultimate as in my library.

EDIT: even without enhanced steam it shows it in my library. When I actually am in the steam client though it shows vanilla and none of the DLCs are listed under the tab, and it's only listed as the vanilla version in my account transaction history.
 
Heh..nothing on my wishlist is on sale.
Not interested in spending hours browsing the site for stuff.

Might as well re-install Guaca Gold and finish that up. Didn't even reach Jaguar, wanted to see what the hype is all about.

Hey, has anyone here played AR-K? I'm not normally a big point-and-click adventure fan, but the artstyle on this one appeals to me and the setting and story sound intriguing. Be interested in hearing what other people thought.

starting to look like this is it, not much for me. Most of the good discounts are on...im sorry to say, bundle fodder games (Stranded for example), which is terrible but a sad reality these days

It's hiding 99% of all the deals anyway, and there's no oversight.

Kinda surprising that The Evil Within SP is 50% off. The content isn't even released yet and people who paid the full price must feel pretty bummed right now :p

Got 2 so have at the spare.
 
Valkyria Chronicles is up on GMG. $14.40 with coupon code: SPOOKY-TREATS-GMG20X

http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/us/en/pc/games/rpgs/valkyria-chronicles/

Fuck it, cashed in all of my playfire credit.

Seems fitting since most of my credit came from Sega games.

Looks like Risk of Rain got updated to fix the XP bug, though I haven't tried it myself.

XP bug? You mean XP gains aren't supposed to be glacial slow?
(That's what I'm hoping at least)

Urgh. It's not easter, Valve! It's the wrong time of year to go hunt for deals like hidden eggs :p

Got gifted The Fall and Master Reboot by my little brother so I'm very happy with the sale so far :D Gonna spend some money too, but mostly not for myself.
