I got a booster pack for Bioshock Infinite. I'm gonna hold onto it until about a month after this sale madness is over. Maybe get 4 or 5 bucks out of it.

Who would buy a booster in a month when everyone that wants a badge has bought it already?

 

[DaBoss]

It seems one of the games in the community vote isn't available in Canada.

I see Van Helsing and The Walking Dead.

 

[HoosTrax]

Aha! Finally figured out why I liked the first Orcs Must Die so much more than the second one. All the maps in the second one are built with co-op in mind. It makes co-op almost a necessity rather than a cool addition to the game.

I keep hearing this from various people and it keeps vindicating my decision to continue holding off on buying OMD2. Being poorly balanced for solo gameplay is a big dealbreaker for me.

 

[Mengy]

So I noticed this Tank Simulator is 50 cents.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/1670/

Is it worth it?

Wow, I remember back when that sim came out. I didn't know it was even on Steam, let alone on sale for $0.50.

I think it was supposed to be a decent tank sim game back when it came out (like ten years ago or so?), but I have no idea how well it holds up today. I never played it, even though I used to want it.

couldn't they just cut the maps in half in a separate solo mode and call it a day?

 

[chugen]

Seriously though I am just floored with your generosity, chugen, to the point I entertained the thought you had some ulterior motive.

You must have spent hundreds of dollars this week...

Amazing levels of kindness, man!

most of the time it was cheap stuff it's ok.=)

 

[Deft Beck]

I have no interest in football at all but I am vaguely interested in Football Manager 2013 for sheer novelty.

After the "fun" time that was Euro Truck Simulator 2, this is probably a horrible idea.

 

[Kageshinzo]

I don't want to spend anymore since the progress I've made shaving off my backlog has been completely derailed by this Steam sale but Mark of the Ninja seems to be good.

I don't think game cards will increase to any notable degree post-sale.

 

[fantomena]

Crossing my fingers for Future Soldier today.

 

[liezryou]

Not all opinions are created equal and saying Dungeon Defenders has the same gameplay as OMD 1 & 2 is just flat out wrong.

Don't mislead poor people into buying a game that plays completely differently.

Ok perhaps i was a bit misleading, my mistake; But really my opinion is better then your opinion? What are we 5?

Yup some are right (OMD 1&2 being better) and some are wrong (Dungeon Defenders being better).

You should go look up the definition of opinion.

You don't like Euro Truck? I find it to be really fun.

 

[DietRob]

Booster packs have never really been worth that much.
The market value is generally just over a dollar.

Who would buy a booster in a month when everyone that wants a badge has bought it already?

Current value is around 2.00 guess I should sell now.

So is Surgeon Simulator anything more than a card generator?

 

[JaseC]

Can someone link me to HolyBaiki's meltdown?

God damn it. I never asked for any attention to begin with. People framing it like this is fucking obnoxious.

I asked how long it would take people at customer support to get back to me and remove a subscription and it spiraled into this thing of people calling me OCD. Suddenly because I respond to people because they respond to me for several god damn fucking pages I'm a god damn fucking attention whore.

Fucking A.

WHY THE FUCK DID I NEED TO SHARE THIS SHIT? WHO'S FUCKING BUSINESS IS IT?

FUCKING MINE. AND I'M SOME FUCKING ATTENTION WHORE BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE ARE CURIOUS.

FUCK.

[HundredEyeMonk]

Hi, Steam-GAF.

What won the community v.....

Fuck everything

I was really wanting to pick up Primordia too

GOTT IN HIMMEL!

 

[Wynnebeck]

Ok is there anyone here who is into music production that has Music Creator 6? I was seriously thinking of getting it since I've fallen out of love with Fruity Loops years ago and Reason is too expensive.

 

[liezryou]

.

Holy NERD RAGE.

 

[marrec]

Ok perhaps i was a bit misleading, my mistake; But really my opinion is better then your opinion? What are we 5?

Yes, I'm 5 and my opinion could beat up your opinion.



Also I type really well for a 5 year old.

 

[CrowdChant]

I'm starting to think that there is no chance of a discount for Resident Evil: Revelations. This makes me a sad panda.

It's also internationally accredited and often used in the training of actual surgeons.

The 2011 version was exactly what I used to train. Shame about that whole malpractice thing.

[Dusk Golem]

It might have to wait until the Winter sale, though it was on-sale on GreenManGaming's summer sale right before the Steam Summer Sale for about $30.

 

[Avallon]

Woot!

 

[chugen]

Let's all take a moment to pray for Monaco on daily, shall we?

amen (and prison architect)

Prices only go down for cards. Sell sell sell.

If you want it on the cheap, i would recommend tracking down GAFfer xdekoix and see if he has any spare copies and would be willing to trade any games for it!

 

[marrec]

Superman does well.

I type good.

Bizarro am good.

Thanks liezryou, thanks Chugen! (and yeah, it worked <3)

 

[antitrop]

Hey guys and girls, if Van Helsing wins you should probably buy it.

It's really fucking awesome.

 

[CrowdChant]

I suppose I can wait anyway, since I've only further added to my backlog with this sale.

 

[liezryou]

I am a medical student and i can attest to this fact!

 

[JaseC]

Woot!

I haven't seen a single foil drop on my end since the sale began.

Hey guys and girls, if Van Helsing wins you should probably buy it.

That's the plan.

Thanks! Didn't realise this was a givers-only giveaway until after I'd entered. Nice of you to give back

Do it. It's a great game and it has cards.

good times were had by all

 

[NaM]

I haven't seen a foil, ever.

 

[morningbus]

I'm failing to remember if the proper Steam thead ever got to these kind of lows, HolyBaikal's meltdown aside...

Is this what sales do to people?

The sad truth is that in regular Steam threads and special threads like this, there are always people who want to essentially make the thread about themselves.

The problem is that the special Steam threads aren't as intimidating to new people, so you end up with a a bunch of new people who clash up against the regulars who feel they've earned their cult of personality.

Both are tolerable in brief excursions, and it would only take me a few moments to find something objectively worse than what you highlight there from the regular thread -- it was just tolerated because, man, it's that funny guy Morningbus doing that silly shtick he always does. I understand it feels worse because there are a lot more people basically vying for attention and some behavior has been particularly annoying, but it isn't unique to these special threads.

 

[Double]

amen (and prison architect)

Monaco, Prison, Gunpoint. Nobody's asking for more. Gaben-

 

[Village]

While peeps wait on dailies, would any of ya'll like to play castle crashers?

 

[marrec]

So if Van Helsing wins, should I buy that over Torchlight II?

 

[liezryou]

Thanks! Didn't realise this was a givers-only giveaway until after I'd entered. Nice of you to give back

Thanks liezryou, thanks Chugen! (and yeah, it worked <3)

NP enjoy both of you! People who give deserve to get back!

 

[MikeDip]

I really hope prison architect gets a decent sale when it pops up as a daily, despite hearing otherwise

That's all I have left that's a major purchase, along with some indies already at 75% off I am waiting for the last day to buy.

 

[brandonh83]

Hey guys and girls, if Van Helsing wins you should probably buy it.

It's really fucking awesome.

I didn't know about this game (until the vote) and just watched some gameplay. Holy shit. Holy shit.
