Ah, that's a shame. I bet they could have sold quite a lot of copies after the EVO finals. Is there a chance it'll come up again? Sorry, I don't know how these work. Still pretty new to Steam.

No. Wait until you're going to play it to buy it, since it will be much cheaper then.
Its price has only begun its bomba descent. It'll get really cheap really fast if you're not gonna play it anytime soon.
FEAR's level design is unfortunate, sometimes.
Does kind of ruin the pacing a bit. It gets repetitive and boring, running through the samey environments. I did have to kind of force myself through a few sections, I remember.
How is the community on Unreal Tournament 3 Black? What is the gameplay like?
I know things get confusing with all of this DRM that is somewhat hidden, especially for those that might be new to PC gaming.
So just letting people know their options, specifically warning people away from things like GFWL and Securom.

You know, this is probably the best thing I've heard about TLoU, no joke. I already wanted to play it, but now I know I have to.
Don't know how. I may offer to buy it on a friend's PS3, I just need to try it.
It's a FPS with the best shooting mechanics I've ever seen set in a horror universe, where paranormal threats abound and you're part of a secret US military group that fights them.
Oh, and it has slow-mo and flying kicks. It's $2.49 right now on Steam, and it also comes with 2 expansions (which are now non-canon, but still a blast to play). For that price it's a hell of a deal.
Sadly I don't know how the multiplayer is nowadays, as it's been a LONG time since I last played it.
Will be cheaper later and not worth that ammount.
I sorta wanna get Puzzle Quest 2 and Front Mission.(Front Mission reminds me of Phantom Crash and I never played the originals so no connection to the series) Who do I have to suck to get the games?

Wow, Sleeping Dogs is a huge disappointment. It looks fantastic, but the car control is HORRIBLE. It feels like I 'am' the car, instead of driving the car. A ram button? Really?

What's up with the LucasArts discounts? Only 33% off across their entire catalog? I guess that's because of Disney, right? I mean, Disney has, for some odd reason, no presence at all on Steam (except for LucasArts that is).
Come on, release Pure goddammit!
It will impress the shit out of you. The dynamic situations the AI will create will have you wanting to tell stories about it.
There were plenty of people in the OT sharing stories of their unique interactions with the AI and some even made GIFs.
It's that good.
The enemy AI is brilliant.
The companion AI, on the other hand, is pretty awful.
You ought to play it though, because it's one of the best games ever, in my opinion.

Much appreciated and I agree, I don't want that GFWL on my games

Maybe there will be a LucasArts daily sale.
Keep playing.
One of the best games from 2012 and would be unfortunate to miss out on it because of a tiny issue like that.

Oh you've did it now. That's some bravery right there.
Wut. The driving is fantastic one you get used to it. Always be handbraking around corners.
E: On that note I just 100%ed Sleeping Dogs. DLC was a bit of a drag but still had a lot of fun with it. Now to craft a level 5 badge

I imported EDF 4 last week, wish Sandlot would put their games out on pc. I'm not one of the ones who believe the game needs to be horribly aliased to maintain the B movie vibe, lol. Still a great game, and I'm glad I did so. In fact this sale has distracted my attention from the game.
In any case, I didn't think Insect Armgeddon was very good but it's the only one on PC I suppose. Would recommend people with a 360 or Vita get 2017 instead.
me too, man. me too.. I passed on it the first time around but my friend has been hyping up that workshop too much. got me worked up. hopefully it'll be a daily deal again near the end.
If you are interested, there is a distinct possibility Batman:AA/AC and Bioshock 2 are getting GFWL and Securom removed

They are getting Steam achievements added as well.
It might be more arcadey than they are used to, but I enjoyed it like that.

Honestly, I'm surprised. I guess I will try the game again tomorrow?
What about that 'ram' button? How can that be justified? I could understand in a game with a story tone like Just Cause 2, but here it feels so out of place considering the story isn't that silly.
I've never played the FEAR expansion packs, but I have every FEAR game on Steam.
Which is better, Perseus Mandate or Extraction Point?

I don't know. To support original IP? Especially one with a female lead? Maybe it would be worth not being thrown to the backlog? Didn't really follow the game post release.
That's how it is:
I agree on the mechanics, though, really amazing to play. The story and all the "horror" sequences are HORRIBLE though, yes, HORRIBLE.
I played through Fear 3 recently, by the way, and the same things still apply, give or take. The actual gameplay is not that awesome but still solid and the story-related stuff is even worse (unfortunately including the entirety of the last level).
no sleeping dogs is one of the best games of 2012 you are playing it wrong.

Isnt he in Sweden? Maybe the dollar is so much stronger then his countries currency that he makes profits just on the exchange rate. Prices could just be cheaper there.

Ok. Well I guess current AAA game design standards have never been for me. I get tired from the constant scenes where my character has to follow another character, inable to run, or chase a bad guy until the game tells me i can catch up to him.. give me freedom or give me death! I bought the game for a good car-chase game and the Hong Kong setting is well executed, I'll try it again tomorrow but don't think I'll get enjoyment out of it.
Dude, that guy is GOOD! I remember those levels, and they had spoiled me the many of the campaign's environments, because I had played a lot of the free multiplayer before getting the main game.
If it's cheap enough I don't see a reason not to get it then, thanks.
I thought it was funnier (and I mean "funnier" in a "I wanna rip my eyes out" kind of way) that they decided to
give Becket a voice, after he had been mute during the entirety of the previous game.
Neat. Already own these but now I can play them without worrying about activations bullshit.
Too bad retail keys don't work, I still have my box.
UT3 lets you activate but I'm not seeing any cards for that.

Sleeping Dogs is the worst game ever (on my top games list!).
I really want Reuse, but I'm out of funds
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
The Swedish store uses : http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=se and his prices actually match those in the Russian store (which is cheaper than Sweden and is, in fact, the cheapest).

Ditto, except replace Reus with Dust. Already have it on 360, but I'd really like a PC version. Never got around to playing it after purchasing...pretty stupid of me.
Anybody wanna join me in the broke as **** club.
So many games I still want also, like Reus. brutal
many are in this club :/
