Support NeoGAF

[pock3tmonster]

This is my third Steam sale and I am shopping for three people. I have my partner and his brother to buy for. I'm dedicated to fulfilling their wishlists before my own. My partner in particular has only just bought a computer actually capable of supporting gaming and is excited by that prospect. I signed him up to Steam and so far have bought him: Super Meat Boy, Hotline Miami, Fez, Don't Starve, Chivalry, The Binding of Issac and The Basement Collection (unfortunately missed the various FTL sales)

More recommendations for his Steam library would be much appreciated thanks.

Just got to the sandstorm part in MoTN and I'm getting horrendous slowdown. Well. It was fun while it lasted.

 

[JaseC]

wow

 

[DyslexicAlucard]

Oh?

 

[Vecks]

I was afraid of that.

If a winner doesn't pop up in the next couple of minutes I'll edit in the whole ModBot code to the original post.

...or not! Yay glad it worked out! It was this post for the curious. Hidden in an email tag.

Wow. Modbot continues to impress. Now you can do number guessing games. Hide a number. One out of ten chance. (I wonder if Modbot could survive that.)

More of this please!~

Oh?

what you quoted happened afterwards, thus now I regret nothing

You mean now that you've received praise from Wario, it was all worth it? Makes sense now!

Wait, I purchased for $18.04 since the Steam Summer Sale started:

$2.49 + $3.74 + $2.49 + $8.70 + $0.62 = $18.04

But Steam says in my Badges page that I only bought for $15.55...

Wtf?

I forgot, I also bought him Super Meat Boy. I have quite a few spare keys from my own Humble Bundles that I have passed along. Great site. Thanks for the recommendations. I definitely want to buy him FTL, Rogue Legacy and XCOM. They look right up his alley.

Gemini Rue, awesome graphic adventure, will also add variety to his library.

Vote for Amnesia.

I edited my post with more games. That list is more or less my game library
What genres are they interested in? Might be easier to recommend stuff if I knew.

Edit- if you have gaffers on your Steam list, you can look at their game library and wish list for ideas. Here's mine: http://steamcommunity.com/id/hi-fi_famicom

 

[vikingvessel]

I see.

Thanks.

Not sure if it is a universal thing, though my running total has been updating right around the same time the delayed summer sale cards hit my inbox.

 

[thetrin]

I bought it the other day, the current 50% off is more than worth it!

You are awesome. NIGORO and Playism thank you.

He's Gaben's partner now, for you have turned him onto the drug known as "Steam"

 

[Prophane33]

I better get some sleep. Tomorrow, I'm actually going to be out of the house most of the day. I hope tomorrow's deals are better.

 

[super-famicom]

You are awesome. NIGORO and Playism thank you.

You're welcome! Any chance on a Mac port? Having to boot into Windows every time kinda becomes a pain after a while

 

[Pops Maellard]

Ahhhhh, Dark Souls is so tempting. So tempting.

 

[Polioliolio]

Ahhhhh, Dark Souls is so tempting. So tempting.

Best buy on Steam. Why haven't you purchased it yet?

DO IT

 

[Pops Maellard]

I'm about $4 short right now, and wanted to save some money for the (hopefully) soon release of Day Z standalone. Otherwise I'd just go for it. Shame the card market crashed, could have made up the difference that way :[

 

[unknownstranger]

That seriously looks like our cat, only about 10 years younger (our cat is 19).

This game has caught my eye. I've been wanting it for a while. If it doesn't receive a bigger discount, I'm going to buy it on the last day of the sale. Thanks for the suggestion.

He's not much for re-playing games we already own console ports of. Doesn't see the value. Smaller, indie titles and exclusives are probably more his style. He doesn't really enjoy strategy, puzzlers or point and click games. I'll check out your library, probably add you too.

He's Gaben's partner now, for you have turned him onto the drug known as "Steam"

Lol. Oh god, I never thought of that. It's exactly what Gaben wants though, for me to turn others to him.

I bought Magicka and all the DLC for like €12 now I just gotta find some peeps to play through it with.

Deus Ex Human Revolution + The Missing Link DLC is excellent and it's very cheap right now.

 

[supaman900s]

Ok couple questions. What is Infestation: Survivor Stories? Is it really like the thread title says, WarZ? And is it any good? Like for $3 good? (I love zombie shit).

Edit: whoa! Just seen the metacritic score of 20! Lol wtf?

Also, what is Garry's Mod exactly? Is it an actual game? If anyone could shed some light I'd appreciate it very much.

It is WarZ, they changed the title to try and distance themselves or whatever.
From my understanding Garry's Mod is a sandbox where you just do what you want.

sfiv ae why can't you be mine already, my body needs you.

How long is the Missing Link DLC? Thinking about getting it myself.

Garry's Mod is a sandbox and a way to play other interesting mods. Infestation is War Z, they just changed the name to escape legal problems after the release of the film of the same name. It's not $3 good. It's not $1 good. It's a damn atrocity, and the developers are lying scum that have treated their fans horribly (Sergey Titov took to the game's forums and described certain types of players with a homophobic slur, for example). I made the mistake of pre-ordering it for $40 before there was any footage and people thought it would be ok. I'm ashamed every day.

 

[JaseC]

It's a horribly-designed game and the developers are equally terrible.

Also, what is Garry's Mod exactly? Is it an actual game? If anyone could shed some light I'd appreciate it very much.

It's not a game, more a physics sandbox. Since it uses the Source engine, you can also import models and the like from other Source games (e.g. Left 4 Dead).

Edit: Kindasorta beaten.

 

[botlite]

4 or 5 hours, maybe even a little longer if you take your time. It's good value.

 

[Roche]

Has it gone down past -50% yet? I'm tempted to buy it to play with PC Gaffers don't wanna take the plunge too early.

 

[NingenJanai]

Cool, I was afraid it might only an hour long.

Thanks.

It's definitely one of the better examples of paid DLC.

Go to your inventory, click the card, click sell button, set the price and watch the money

Spoiler

nickels

start rolling in.

 

[Pops Maellard]

Go into your inventory, select a card and click sell. For the love of god, don't undercut everyone by 40 cents. Just list your card for the same as the lowest price and it'll sell within minutes.

This thread only lasted like 2 days. Crazy!

How these threads get to 20000 posts is beyond me.

Nice to see some developers understand what DLC should be like.
