OOh baby. The Pit is MINE. Finally a game on my wishlist gets a flash sale!

 

[Warrozo]

To those who bought Just Cause 2 during the sale (or not, you still cool), there is a multiplayer beta going on right now, and lasting till Monday at 4AM EST.

Is it worth it?

I'm super glad Sonic Racing Transformed is on sale. That game is fantastic and I'm not really a huge racing fan. I can't speak to the PC version (I got the PSN Vita version when it went on sale a few months ago) but I'm sure it's worth every penny

I tried it on the free weekend a few weeks ago and it didn't click at all with me :/ just had no charm imo, for when I already knew Mario Kart.

 

[More_Badass]

Are most indies 9.99 or 14.99 (regular price, not discounted)? If I get PA, I'll have 11.01 left for after the sale, that's why I'm asking

 

[mclem]

Card delivery was remarkably punctual this time!

 

[roosters93]

"You have spent approximately $328.96 USD in the store since the sale began."
Here's hoping it's not accurate lol

 

[Warrozo]

Its confirmed that the price will go DOWN on release, because they chose a high price for the alpha to keep random people from playing it (and only the hardcore that are willing to bugreport/help with the game instead of complaining).

Ah I didn't know that! Well in that case I retract my previous statement

 

[Volotaire]

Is it worth it?

Just Cause 2 , at that price, heck yeh!

 

[toastyToast]

Thanks for the link, I did notice "no longer taking requests" at the top of the page though. I'd be interested in a couple of the games, but it seems I was too late!

He's selling those

 

[Toki767]

It's nice to wake up and see that Modbot is alive again.

 

[Acorn]

So Alpha Protocol, I remember reading some of the skills were borked. I'm planning on going stealthy, with cqc and some pistol (Old School Bond), are any of those skills borked?

 

[greendomo's ghost]

Played it. It is funny as hell sometimes. But its not easy. A pure simulation with some nice funny touches.

If you arent super hot on the game, on supporting the dev and dealing with bugs, I suggest to wait since they will release the game cheaper once they hit the full release.

Fun simulation game tough.

Thanks for these...I'm torn because i'm still interested but I only have $20 to spend, and think it would probably be better spent on Rogue Legacy and a few other cheap games...

At least I have 24 hours to decide!

To be fair, Disney's games division is so gutted that management of this stuff might not even have a real home. And the people that are left have really only had to worry about console before (and Infinity is all they're really worrying about now). Who knows... it might even be sitting in a group like business development rather than with a product management team since the transition from Lucas only happened recently. Maybe they'll figure it out by Winter.

They actually had the games on sale a couple months ago, after the transition of Lucas Arts.

The discount wasn't the best its ever been and I wasn't going to get to the game right away, so I went ahead and passed on Republic Commando at the time.

Worms Revolution.

Yay, or nay?

Enjoyed them in like 1996. Never played one since.

Nice job.

Sonic Racing Transformed has cards

 

[drhankmccoyphd]

I can host a Chivalry 4-pack if anyone is interested. PM for details.

 

[GazzaScotland]

Its confirmed that the price will go DOWN on release, because they chose a high price for the alpha to keep random people from playing it (and only the hardcore that are willing to bugreport/help with the game instead of complaining).

Just out of interest, where did they confirm it?

Can't see any mention on the Steam store page, and I can imagine they would have to mention somewhere that the current price is higher than the final.

 

[Fracas]

Okay, 4 pack is purchased. Waiting on payment from the people I PMed

 

[Wag]

So Alpha Protocol, I remember reading some of the skills were borked. I'm planning on going stealthy, with cqc and some pistol (Old School Bond), are any of those skills borked?

It doesn't matter. The game is still fun as hell.

 

[Grief.exe]

As you are going to be effectively funding their development, keep in mind that it'll be changing constantly. But once its released the price most likely will go up so keep that in mind too

read:

I've said this before, but the developers of Prison Architect decided to release the Alpha for a base price.

This was to allow only the truly dedicated players in to alpha test their game and help them towards release.
Rather than joe schmo, who see bugs, request a refund, and then go on forums and bitch because of his ignorance.

I believe the base price will actually go down as the game moves towards release.

Worms Revolution.

Buy Worms Armageddon instead.

Where can you see that information? I can't seem to find it.

Armageddon is also $3.75

Actually, stealthy CQC with pistols is the

best way to play the game. Carry on!

 

[intheinbetween]

well guys I guess this is the end for my Summer Sale, I will wait for tomorrow's Nuveem deal on XCOM and that's all

 

[Phatmac]

Should I get Natural Selection 2?

 

[Tesseract]

still no ssfiv ae. i've dreamed a dream and now that dream is gone from me. curse you, capcom.

 

[Korranator]

Strike Suit Zero vs Galaxy on Fire 2 HD?

Curious about this one too.

Anybody know?

 

[chrominance]

Should I get Strike Suit Zero for $2.99? flash sale.

Duh. Yes. Unless you hate space sims, I guess.

 

[Leon Belmont]

When's the last day of daily and flash deals?

 

[BibiMaghoo]

Buy Worms Armageddon instead.

Armageddon is also $3.75

I take it Armageddon is considered the better game then?

EDIT: It has no achievements or cards. Y U DO THIS TO ME.

 

[Torraz]

Should I get Natural Selection 2?

Same... Very undecided.

 

[Volotaire]

Buy Worms Armageddon instead.

Is it bad I enjoyed Worms 3D? lol

Too lazy to dig that up, but they confirmed they used an artificially higher price to keep random people from complaining. Admittedly, they didnt confirm it will necessarily go down according to that logic, but they wont raise it and for the money its costing and a good chance of them lowering the price on release, I feel like 17$ are better spent on 5 other Indies that equally deserve the love.

 

[zychi]

Ac3 is mandatory uplay right?

 

[FloppyDelux]

dead pool is tempting, but ill wait.

 

[Zia]

Worms Revolution.

Yay, or nay?

Grab Worms Armageddon instead. It's a daily as well and is the Saturn Bomberman of the Worms series in that it'll probably never be topped; the pinnacle of the series at its purest and most polished.

Pistols is a bit like cheating, if you upgrade them you can beat bosses in less than five seconds. But it's also very funny and rewarding. BTW, you'll probably fail at stealth in Saudi Arabia. It's normal, don't abandon like Jim Sterling, you'll eventually unlock the perks you need.

 

[Papytendo]

Is it worth it?

I bought it at $30 and I have no regrets. Yes. Try the demo, if you have concerns. Also, make sure you are running an OS above XP.

 

[PaulLFC]

No no, you are wrong. It only means he is no longer taking requests for games to be added to those that he already has listed. The ones he has on that page are STILL available. Send him a message.

Ah excellent, thanks!

 

[Soi-Fong]

Kentucky Route Zero or Prison Architect??? Help me!!!

 

[Grief.exe]

Thanks I just edited the post.

I appreciate it.

By a country mile.

 

[Tizoc]

Deadpool is the closest you'll get to a Suda 51 game on the PC, grab it if the price suits you for a game that's been released within 2 months.

Nice, this pleases me.

 

[xBlain]

And SSFIV AE still isn't on any sale.. Why do you wan't to hurt me so much Gaben!

 

[Warrozo]

I bought it at $30 and I have no regrets. Yes. Try the demo, if you have concerns. Also, make sure you are running an OS above Vista.

Thanks I'll give it a shot.

 

[Divius]

All this Alpha Protocol talk sounds so tempting, but I promised myself not to spend any more this sale.
