It was an insanely uphill battle for Incredipede.

Not saying 100% that it was the situation with that sale, but most times you see an item in the market sold for way more than the normal cost it is being used to move gaben dollars from 1 account to another.
the only reason I'd get RCT3 is if you've always wanted to design waterparks. the Soaked! expansion is pretty decent and offers a facet that was criminally ignored in the first 2 games. also, there seems to be a pretty active community if you're into recreations of parks and that kind of thing.
other than that, I'd stick with the first two (namely 2). the core mechanics didn't translate as well between dev studios + the jump to 3D, imo, and other than 3D graphics, the feature sets are largely the same.

Blame yourself or god.
Incredipede is having a tough time in the polls because it's $4 already.

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.
Mostly this. I picked up the extra tomb cause it was cheap and I am thinking of doing another playthrough.
But seriously, watch out for the "Pay to Unlock" DLC which really ruins the single player experience. If you're not sure, get Enhanced Steam (it will tell you).

God damn, I wish SS2 or Deus Ex were on mac. I love these old good cheap games that my computer has no trouble running. Half-life has been awesome

I was speaking in terms of Downloadable Content not Downloadable Crap.And I did mention the tomb via the edit.
Ok ok, it's clear, thanks
That's what I don't want, to ruin my progression, so I think I'll just keep the game as is it!
Thank you to all of you for your answers
Glad to have been of assistance.
Oh that ModBot and his shenanigans.

Do it! Someone on the thread yesterday said "using Enhanced Steam was like putting glasses on for the first time". That's about on par with the general reaction I get from people.

The GOG.com version of SS2 comes with a Mac version using Wine. Works okay.

Sounds like something a pimp would say.

The tomb doesn't ruin progression in any way; it's just tomb like any other in the game. At 74c you may as well snap it up.

Is that Universe simulator worth it. Looks cool and I have a 3D TV which it says it supports.

It made a solid impression! It was elegant in it's simplicity.

Sure it's worth it, but the only "game" part about it was the 2011? summer achievement where you had to crash a planet into the sun, yea back when summer sale's were cool bro.

Wine...I've heard mixed things, but the performance is okay? The only problem is the game is a whopping TEN DOLLARS there, what are they thinking
You sacrificed your first win for that?
Was expecting bad rats or something like that. Anyways, got stuff coming up
Worth even more

I can't remember if they did this during the winter sale, but will they offer all the daily deals on the last day?

That reminds me.
MY ES isn't working for some odd reason.

Yeah, performance is fine. A little bit higher than the original, but hey, the original runs on a toaster.
GOG.com had their sale a few weeks ago, it was $5 then. It comes with the soundtrack too.

Yup, I just don't want to buy those abilities and weapons upgrades, but I think I'm going to buy the tomb and some outfits
Thx
you just missed their summer sale lol. as for wine, I had no trouble running various apps (including 2D Paradox games, so stuff that can get relatively system intensive, if not necessarily graphical powerhouses) so while ymmv, given how old the games are, I'd say you won't have any trouble.

Not to ruin the hilarity of the above giveaway, but I've tweaked ModBot to be more strict about which URLs it can accept as gifts for somewhat obvious reasons.

Can anyone answer this? I got conflicting answers on a few sites about it needing to be the same company so I'm hesitant to do anything and don't want to miss any of my most-wanted games if they come up.
Hate even having to be in this position after having $4,000 just a month ago...lol

I did it, I bit the bullet and bought FTL with my own money. Saving that card-earned steam wallet money for the next time Euro Truck goes on sale.

System Shock not available in Canada!??! Doesnt show up as an option for the community vote
Okay, I have an Hotline Miami Owl, TF2 Spy, Chivalry and Football Manager cards.
Anyone wants those? I can't sell them or even know what to do with those anyway.
I'd like one.

Have you tried restarting your browser and/or clearing the Enhanced Steam cache (in the Enhanced Steam menu at the top of each page)?
ES relies heavily on the Steam Web API - which has occasionally stopped working at various points in the sale. Could be that.

Yeah, trashed and then redownloaded ES. Doesn't seem to work.
