Support NeoGAF

[Firebrand]

Damn, now that's a good deal. Thanks man!

Btw, another pack with some DLC and different games: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008G0ZVLE/?tag=neogaf0e-20.

The game alone was $9.99 but looks like that deal's over.

Pretty sure it's all Steam codes but probably should make sure before purchasing.

[HiiiLife]

No Counter Strike or Hitman? So many Portal 2's dooeeeeeee. I am disappoint.

 

[MRORANGE]

This is my humble appeal for everyone to buy Team Fortress Classic. The game for some reason is not free, but is only 2.49. It's a truly classic game and in a lot of people's opinion a lot better than the sequel. Please buy it, play it, love it. I wish Steam would just make it free to help revamp the community again, but I digress.

Why? TF2 is much better, I don't think valve have any intention of supporting that community anymore.

 

[LuffyZoro]

Only if you have a friend for the coop'.

No, it's brilliant all around. Hell, I barely played the co-op due to connection problems and still think it was well worth my Day 1 purchase.

 

[Cheddahz]

Ugh, I'm just going to let Ys: Origin sit in my cart until the last minute I guess..

I'm sure everyone owns it already.

No. And yes, I know that.

 

[JaseC]

I'm done. I still want to buy The Walking Dead if it happens to reappear, but I've enough left in my Wallet for that (which I only began using during this sale).

 

[hitoshi]

How'd you get that picture?

I made it in Photoshop?

[LightofRohan]

Yep, you can access your Steam account from any computer.

1. Yes. Have to install of course.

2. Not really supposed to but I doubt there is a problem with it.

Yes you should be fine.

Cool thanks! Nice to just ease my subconscious doubts a bit.

The removal of grenades is the best thing valve ever did. Tfc was fun back in the day but in no way is better than 2.

 

[Cheddahz]

Believe in the flash.

And if it does get another flash deal, I guess I'll pick up Bastion as well

i felt bad for buying it at discount. It's THAT good.

DAAAAAMn. You had a good year LOL

 

[Chrysalis]

Fuck that so hard. Some may say it's mediocre compared to the original and I think the original does some things better like story, but Bioshock 2 is a fantastic game with better gameplay, a good enough story, excellent atmosphere and amazing music.

It's got my favorite story moment from either of the games, too. You know what I'm talking about if you've played it. The pacing is also much better. Don't play both back to back, but Bioshock 2 is definitely worth playing.

 

[AlexBasch]

I have ten bucks remaining in my wallet and have no idea what to spend them on.

I'm even juggling with the idea of getting The Witcher 1 just to have it on Steam rather than a stand alone game. :/

 

[brandonh83]

Also you get to go outside and in the ocean.

Game is just fun as hell. It's easily one of the best first person shooters I've ever played. I think it lacks the nuance and storytelling momentum of the first game, but that's about the only thing I find to be lacking about it.

If you go into Bioshock 2 wanting good gameplay and awesome atmosphere, you will come away more than satisfied with it. If you go into it wanting something as memorable or as striking as your first experience with the original, it may come up short, but I highly doubt you'll regret it.

Yeah. I think overall the first one had a more interesting story, but the sequel definitely had at least a couple of "okay I did not expect that" moments. And the great thing is that these moments are payoffs to details, not really the core narrative, but things you hear about as you're playing the game.

 

[Tellaerin]

The "What Goes on Sale" logic of this sale is baffling. I hope that whatever market research Valve is doing they determine that recap days are better than having some games up for multiple flash/vote/daily (Witcher 2) while other games show up only once (SFIVAE, flash sale) or only potentially once (King's Bounty, lost a vote in community choice).

The problem with recap days is that it kills incentive for people to follow the sale and encourages them to hold off until the last day, rather than spreading out the traffic. (I can't imagine the hit the servers take on a recap day is a good thing.)

I don't know, man. I actually liked following the Flash Sales and seeing what popped up, and I'm not feeling the complaints from people. But that's just me.

 

[Truespeed]

I've been on the fence about Choplifter HD. I love the original and it seems to be along the same lines. Impressions?

 

[LuffyZoro]

I'm done. I still want to buy The Walking Dead if it happens to reappear, but I've enough left in my Wallet for that (which I only began using during this sale).

Holy shit dude, you've spent nearly $400?

 

[evilhomer]

Alright, I think my purchases for this entire Steam sale will be as follows:
Crusader Kings II - $23.99
Mount & Blade: Warband : $11.00
Galactic Civilization II - $4.99
Total: $39.99

What say you GAF?

I'd grab that CK2 deal on Amazon but I don't have a credit card (Unless someone wants to trade the Amazon deal for an equivalent amount of money in Steam stuff).

CK2 doesn't seem to be a deal on amazon anymore sorry

 

[mneuro]

I have ten bucks remaining in my wallet and have no idea what to spend them on.

I'm even juggling with the idea of getting The Witcher 1 just to have it on Steam rather than a stand alone game. :/

How is Witcher 1? I haven't played either of them but I'm thinking of getting part 1 to try the series out.

 

[Yoshichan]

And if it does get another flash deal, I guess I'll pick up Bastion as well

You'll eventually end up regretting not buying Bastion right away; this is something I know for a fact!

It's like $3, that's nothing!

BASTION because of Yoshi!

LONE SURVIVOR because I can't have buy it now so you should buy it and play it!

how much Aussie Tax did you have to pay lol.

 

[Wok]

No, it's brilliant all around. Hell, I barely played the co-op due to connection problems and still think it was well worth my Day 1 purchase.

With the solo only, I have played between 10 and 15 hours maximum.
With the coop only, I have played 50 hours.

 

[Tess3ract]

I would soooooo get Rage

but my PC is sooooo not running it.

RAGE isn't very good but it scales very well. I was running it at 60fps on a 4890 card and a tricore even at 8xAA iirc.

 

[JaseC]

Holy shit dude, you've spent nearly $400?

Slightly over.

 

[jaundicejuice]

So do the Commando's games work on Windows 7/64bit machines? I'm eyeing the Commando's Complete bundle, but maybe that's something i should get off of GoG instead.

The recap prices aren't as low as the daily deals, or at least not to my recollection. So it's always better to buy during the sale.

 

[ImRight]

[Chrysalis]

It's the best RPG series currently running- especially if you appreciate good writing and voice-acting.

 

[Truespeed]

HAWX 2 got a lot of hate but its awesome, i dont get it - you should buy it

This may be a reason:

Ubisoft’s Online Services Platform. Ubisoft requires a permanent Internet connection to play this video game at all times.
