taken advantage of my ass
I hope I can make 3 euros on trading cards within the next 24 hours... Haven't had to spend a non-trading card cent yet, but Fez is tempting my real wallet... I can feel it vibrating on my desk.
 
I voted for streetfighter but then regretted it since I have kept dawgs installed to purchase and finish it's dlc before I uninstall it. After which I will reinstall it when it inevitably gets cards.

For great justice!

Seems like a good time to give away FTL keys. :D I got enough PMs to go through with it.

It's the closest you'll ever get to GTA: Hong Kong

Wouldn't this be closer?

Don't know if this is against the rules, but is Far Cry 3 worth $23? One of the two games during this sale I'll probably play between now and the Christmas sale (the other being Dishonored). Should I wait till next sale for it?

I'd wait for it to go cheaper. The game becomes incredibly boring once you've unlocked all the (meaningful) perks, as its design focuses on feeding XP to the player, which becomes worthless when you have nothing to spend it on. Additionally, the campaign isn't particularly engaging and the side-missions are uninspired hunting/bounty/fetch quests that are, simply, tediously dull. Lastly, Ubi saw fit to remove enemy engagements entirely when you've taken over an outpost in a region, so travelling the world is decidedly unexciting as there are no "emergent" moments to keep you on your toes (though Ubi did add the option to reset outposts).

Far Cry 3 is basically a prime example of how Ubi takes complaints to heart and then ruins the next instalment by going too far in the opposite direction.
 
Wow, some seriously good flash deals - XCom, Far Cry 3/Blood Dragon, Runner2, all on my radar. I hate to spend so much early in the sale, but some good stuff here.

So what's the verdict on Surgeon Simulator? I played the freeware version and it was fun and QWOP-esque (in a good way)

But are the devs planning on adding more content?

They have been adding content pretty regularly.

Yeah but I only have $29 and I'm waiting for Gunpoint, Warband, Prison Architect

Prison Architect isn't going to happen within your budget.

The devs want to keep it higher price so less people are in the alpha.

so the 3 games i actually wanted all went up in price whilst i was at work, i dislike the way steam do sales, a lot
 
Picking up Black Ops 2. First COD game I'll have actually bought since World at War. (Although I was gifted BO and played a lot of MW2) The combination of me moving home for the Summer and having a well paying seasonal job is just going to end poorly.

when CyL finds out that Valve doesn't give a shit about him he's going to burn their headquarters down. And I'm not saying I condone arson, but frankly if I was a firefighter, I'd call in sick. #freecyl #mascots #truebrothersofsteam #gabesucks #whybother #summeradventures #hangingwithmydudes #embarrassing #deathbecomesher #evenoldnewyorkwasoncenewamsterdam #ilovemascots #aintnopartywithoutmybrahs
I knew something was off with this sale, but I couldn't put my finger on it. This is it. Where are the mascots, Valve? Where are they?

Well Stump, if Valve won't deliver I think you'll have to invent your own story about them. There no such thing as a proper sale without your amazing fanfic!

So far I've bought:
Antichamber
Fez
FTL

Disappointed that there's no discount on the walking dead DLC, especially since I've heard it's not necessarily worth the five dollars due to its length. Guess I'll just wait for season 2.
