The cutscenes are loading screens. Once the next section has loaded, you can skip away.

On the PC (depending on your hardware, of course) the loadtimes can be pretty short. On my PC, I can skip the cutscenes almost immediately.

It's definitely better on PC. A lot more beautiful and aiming is infinitely better with a mouse.

So I imagined. At this point though my back log is a big enough mess to pass at $10. Good to know about the load times, though.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

It was 9 gigs for me, still pissed me off. Also has a ton of drops though.

Drops?

 

[rockx4]

I remember last time DA went on sale I bought DA: Awakenings only to realize the Ultimate Edition was available... just not in the country I reside in.

I actually THOUGHT about buying the DLC through Bioware but it's never discounted on PC. I never felt so burned in my life.

Yea, the DLC through Bioware is a fucken ripoff, and totally fucks over people who bought the game before the Ultimate Edition. They make no effort to drop the DLC prices after the Ultimate Edition releases.

 

[Dio Brando]

If the ass that is surgeon simulator wins, I'll be pissed.

I don't get this rage. It's a funny game, and looks cool(not that I'll vote for it, already have it.)

 

[Gbraga]

Thank you so much guys, I even got a copy of AC II out of nowhere! GAF is great.

I love you guys T_T

I'm pretty sure there was a glitch in the Steam circuitry and they gave me 2 copies of DA: Origins. Anyone want to see if gifting this second one works lol.

Drops?

5 card drops

 

[Pops Maellard]

Ok, one more time just for kicks. Does /anyone/ have any input about F1 2012?

 

[TheGoddamn]

I too voted for Primoridia, in the hopes of getting the Wadjet catalogue on the cheap.

 

[Franklinator]

Nothing for me in the flash deals, but I voted Surgery Simulator because I regret not getting it earlier.

edit: reading this thread, I feel that people wanted me to vote for Primordia

 

[MaximusPrimus]

is Aliens : Colonial Marines finally worth it at 12.49$? I'm expecting shite, but i love Aliens, so for that price it should be worth it no? is the story good at least?

 

[vilmer_]

me

Steam name same as here?

 

[Dongs Macabre]

5 card drops

Oh, I thought you meant that there's in-game items or something.

5 cards isn't that much, considering the card prices are pretty low now.

 

[Timedog]

I REALLY want Dragon age ultimate but the price is just a bit too steep.. Shouldn't this be like 5 bucks by now lol?

You don't want that game. It has 30 Seconds to Mars in the trailer.

Back away slowly.

Absolutely not, especially if you're a fan of Aliens. It's terrible.

 

[Crayons]

Ok, one more time just for kicks. Does /anyone/ have any input about F1 2012?

If you ask about a game and no one answers its fair to say it isn't worth your time.

 

[Turfster]

Since people are asking, some more Mars War Logs impressions for those wondering:

Is it worth $9.99? Probably yes, but only just. You'd best be waiting for 75% off if the setting doesn't immediately grab you. For games of this type though? We are not exactly swimming in other choices.

Thanks for the write-up, I'll wait. Since I'm in Europe, it's basically 14$ at the moment, which is more than I'm willing to pay for a game with so many flaws. It's usually the smaller 'niggles' that annoy the most, after all.

is Aliens : Colonial Marines finally worth it at 12.49$? I'm expecting shite, but i love Aliens, so for that price it should be worth it no? is the story good at least?

I got it for free, and I'm regretting my purchase, as it were.
If you love Aliens, you'll hate this thing even more, btw.

Everything is terrible except for the Horde mode that you have to pay for. I wouldn't bite until it drops below $5.

 

[Prophane33]

Oh, I thought you meant that there's in-game items or something.

5 cards isn't that much, considering the card prices are pretty low now.

I still haven't spent more than 2.49 of my own money during the sale and thanks to selling cards I've got 3 games, 2 pieces of DLC, a couple cards to get my summer sale badge, and still have 1.31 to spare (and growing).

 

[kbozz71]

I REALLY want Dragon age ultimate but the price is just a bit too steep.. Shouldn't this be like 5 bucks by now lol?

You're getting an awful lot for that price. It includes Awakening and all of the DLC's. And the mods, sooooo many mods for this game. You wont regret buying it.

 

[HundredEyeMonk]

I played the hell out of the original Red Orchestra. I loved the realism aspect of it. It was a slower pace and was just a blast.

Few questions- is there a pretty active community for RO2? Do I need to purchase RO2 and then buy Rising Storm or is it standalone?

 

[MaximusPrimus]

Absolutely not, especially if you're a fan of Aliens. It's terrible.

ok thx Civ 5 then? lol

 

[rainking187]

Is $2.99 the lowest To the Moon has been during this sale?

 

[unpurposed]

ok thx Civ 5 then? lol

Definitely worth it.

Yes it's pretty active, just buy Rising Storm and you get access to even the older RO2 European theater maps.

Probably true. Suppose I'll pass.

 

[Shakka]

So I suppose this Aliens game is pretty good, huh?

 

[GK86]

Which loser should I vote for?

I've spent around $20 on games and the rest I got from cards and gifts. Card prices are really low for some games, but they add up. I made back the money I spent on McPixel and Organ Trail from the cards I got from them (Got them in a Humble Bundle)

 

[maty]

Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate edition

Thanks

So, if I wanted to buy Dragon Age, I would need to buy them separately and spend more. Fuck EA. Glad I'm not interested in it.

 

[Sorian]

I don't get this rage. It's a funny game, and looks cool(not that I'll vote for it, already have it.)

It's a funny game for free, its garbage for any amount of money. I wouldn't pay for QWOP, why would I pay for this? There are better games to vote for.

 

[biocat]

is Aliens : Colonial Marines finally worth it at 12.49$? I'm expecting shite, but i love Aliens, so for that price it should be worth it no? is the story good at least?

You'd be better off grabbing a copy of Bad Rats while it's on the cheap.

 

[kOsmikcoffee]

Y'all muthafukkas better vote for Primordia.

 

[Gbraga]

You're getting an awful lot for that price. It includes Awakening and all of the DLC's. And the mods, sooooo many mods for this game. You wont regret buying it.

Any one in particular you'd recommend?

oh well, for each their own. i like it(bought it with card money).

 

[Tukker]

is Aliens : Colonial Marines finally worth it at 12.49$? I'm expecting shite, but i love Aliens, so for that price it should be worth it no? is the story good at least?

No. I was stupid enough to preorder this game and got burned for it. It's not even worth $1.

 

[Petrie]

Vote Forge so I can stack my 75% off coupon!

 

[Razorskin]

I'm pretty sure there was a glitch in the Steam circuitry and they gave me 2 copies of DA: Origins. Anyone want to see if gifting this second one works lol.

Thanks man!

 

[HundredEyeMonk]

Y'all muthafukkas better vote for Primordia.

Sir, yes sir.

 

[Beelzeboss]

So I bought Sleeping Dogs

what are all the story DLCs and are they worth it?

 

[I H8 Memes]

Someone on another forum just pointed out how the EA published game is the only game in the dailies without trading cards. Wonder if it was intentional by Valve to pair Crysis 2 up with nothing but games that have trading cards.

 

[-tetsuo-]

I seriously have been waiting for Primordia since I saw it day one on Steam.

 

[dripdripsplash]

Y'all muthafukkas better vote for Primordia.

I've done my work. Everybody else get to voting for that game. Looks absolutely amazing and from the same developers of Gemini Rue. I want to buy this game arghhh!!!

 

[JoseOle5990]

Sir, yes sir.

if that's tinypic, you can't use their url on GAF. It's blocked. Try imgur or minus

 

[Myzer]

Ok, Dragon Age bought. I almost lasted 24 hours without buying anytihng.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

Y'all muthafukkas better vote for Primordia.

Surgeon Simulator it is!

 

[GK86]

Just saw the trailer for Primordia and it has great music. Voted.

 

[Agent White]

i've enjoyed my time with super house of the dead ninjas. anyone else pick this up during the sale?
