Amazon seems to like putting Mark of the Ninja on sale.
I think it was a flash deal.
It was a Flash Sale, and they're easy to miss since they run for just 8 hours.
Ah, aren't flash deals usually the lowest discounted price?
The game I wanted actually won? It's a miracle. I'll actually be playing this one for the card, rather than idling.
I got several games just from just the money I got from selling cards, this is the best sale ever. Pricewise, deals still don't seem as good as they used to be. But several games I've wanted hit new low prices this year, so it hasn't been bad.

I would have to guess it would be that, but you never know, could be Fire & Sword.

I think I asked yesterday and everyone focused on the graphics, but has SS2 aged well? Gameplay, controls, and level design wise?
Me and older games don't always mix well, but I enjoyed the Bioshock games and like survival sci fi horror

Was there a bioshock infinite deal? Id like that
I think there was on the first day, not sure
on the first day
It was the daily on the first day.
BUT there is a chance Valve screw up at the start and makes it 91% off for a very short while.

I've played a little bit of the GOG version. You might want to adjust the controls.
This is correct. A small enough chance to assume that it won't happen for the game you want, but one nonetheless.

I will likely have some unexpected free time this afternoon (I'm a dad with a very active three-year-old), so I'm strongly considering buying the slightly discounted Rogue Legacy only because I want it so badly.
It was nice knowing you. I'll take my ban like a pro.

Dont worry, the deal will come back
The first day? That was a flash sale for Skyrim Legendary Edition. Skyrim vanilla will probably still go on sale since it wasn't given an extra discount.
Also, it's one of the featured games in the summer getaway trading cards. That implies that it will be part of a Daily Deal.

I take it System Shock 2 doesnt have controller support? Would have been nice to play it on my tv but I guess I'll just use my laptop
That's not true, in the winter sale there was a game that was discounted for less in a flash sale after it was put in the daily. I forget which one.

IMHO, if you live in North or South America (Edited to please my Canadian overlords) and have a smartphone then there is zero reason for you to miss a flash sale. I can understand people in weird time zones or that don't have decent phones missing them.
I do hope that the vanilla + dlcs will be discounted. But the chance it will go lower is not likely

And it was Sleeping Dogs. I remember because I got Nightmare in North Point from it.

Morning all, Just woke up, glad ss2 won the vote. Can't decide my next vote, any suggestions?
Sure, it's been on sale on Amazon three times thus far this year, but compare the graphs:
Mark of the Ninja:
Orcs Must Die! 2:
Edit: OMD2's Uplay data is depressing. Get with the times, Ubi.

Ninja was in a few bundles too. And way more people on my friends list own it.
Fingers crossed
Otherwise I guess skyrim for me will have to wait until the holiday sale. Still have a backlog to clear anyway.Gaz Pwnage

I have 3 copies of Borderlands 2 that I'm selling because I bought the 4-pack. If you are interested quote this message, and send me a pm.
I got that sweet sweet MotN + Deadlight + ITSP + Toy Soldiers + Iron Brigade bundle for 5$ from amazon in jan i think.

Totally buying System Shock 2 at that price after all the rage it gets on GAF. It'll be my first time playing.

Amazon Microsoft "Indie" Bundle
Oh, right, that. I assume it's factored into the above discount graph, though (the fact it's reduced in price, that is).
derExperte

Yes, but I meant Amazon-bundles. People were throwing keys around like there's no tomorrow. Of course everyone who wants it probably owns OMD2 already too, so it's a 50/50 thing.

Not bad
Thanks for voting for Deadlight, been wanting to pick it up.Wish you told me sooner...
We all know the worst one will win because the steam community has terrible taste so expect Mark of the Ninja to win.
And by Mark of the Ninja i mean Orcs must die
At least make sense if you're going to be snarky.
