It was pretty quiet on my end. Made some Card trades/purchases, but not much over here.

Tomb Raider Outfit Pack 2
Dishonored: Dunwall City Trials
Dishonored - The Knife Of Dunwall DLC
Reus
Defiance Standard Edition Gift
Bionic Commando
PixelJunk Eden

[toddhunter]

This sale I mostly concentrated on gifting and picking up smaller indie titles. In terms of badges, I crafter the summer sale level 1 and SS2 badges for the profile wallpaper.

I also managed to play most of the games I got, for at least a short while, so here are some impressions:

Best Pickups: Gateways and Gunpoint

Picked up for around $140

Waves: Neat little platformer with the rising water mechanic. Worth the pickup for the price.
Gnomoria: Decided on this over towns and it certainly looks meaty. Not sure if I'll have the time to devote to learning it but I'm happy it is of quality.
Lunnye Dynasty: Seems pretty limited, art-style isn't enough to put it over.
Under the ocean: Don't starve in 2D. What more could you ask for? Well a game that is even a quarter finished would be a start. Plenty of potential, not much there yet.
Reus: Just worked through the tutorial. I think it'll be fun for a half dozen hours or so and then get limited. Will be finding out.
Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe: Very fun little puzzle/shooter. There is a free online version, but I really like this game.
Gateways: The most interesting indie platformer I purchased. Well worth a look if you want some confusing mechanics.
Super House of Dead Ninjas: Pretty much as per the "box". Fast, fun and addictive.

+ some gifts.

Was very kindly gifted:

UncivilDKizzle - Penny arcade 4 - Looks like more of the same, which is a good thing.
JaseC - Toki Tori 2 - Have yet to really play it. Colourful.
Cth - Noitu Love 2 Devolution - Was on my wishlist, but actually a terribly basic game! Don't buy based on the screens.
Xelios - Gunpoint - Almost extremely good. Just missing that certain "something" in depth to elevate it.
Gloomfire - Starseed Pilgrim - Have yet to play it.

 

[SxP]

FTL
Penny Arcade's On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 4
Chivalry
Dirt 2
Gnomoria

[polyh3dron]

I've spent $154 so far. Not bad.

 

[Stealth_Cobra]

Makes me feel really cheap.

Bought :

Dark Souls
Dark Souls (Gift For Friend)
Amnesia the Dark Descent

And why wound anyone own 2000+ games ? There's no way you can play all of these games for their money's worth. Games don't exactly age well for the most part anyway, I always avoided getting a backlog for the most part. I try to buy and play only games I will play and only buy new games when I finished or grow tired of the ones I already own.

Won from ModBot (so far):

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
Oil Rush

• To The Moon 2.99 USD (think everyone knows this one. Acclaimed indie adventure/RPG)
• Super House of Dead Ninjas 2.37 USD (fast paced intense platform action)
• Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams 4.94 USD (platformer with beautiful graphics + art)
