How'd you get your money back for it? Out of curiosity?

If you knew some magic trick, to get a refund from steam. I wouldn't mind using it to get a refund for Arkham City.

People bought his Just Cause 2.

Is the Shark Gun the only worthwhile DLC? I'm looking at the list and have no idea. What about the Season Pass?

 

[Inkwell]

Would Sim City 4 be a good starting point for someone new to the series?

 

[CharmingCharlie]

Is the Shark Gun the only worthwhile DLC? I'm looking at the list and have no idea. What about the Season Pass?

It's a fun weapon but it is more of a novelty than anything else. The Season pass gives you access to the three DLC episodes which are :-

Gangsta's in Space
Genkibowl VII
Trouble with clones

If you enjoyed Saints Row 3 it would be hard to see how you wouldn't enjoy more of the same with the Season Pass.

 

[Credo]

I haven't played a Sim City since Sim City 3000 ages ago, so I'm pretty happy about a game I voted for actually winning for once!

 

[nickcv]

i'm tempted about buying super meat boy, but i kinda remember that there was some thought about porting it to 3DS, and i think i'd enjoy it more on a portable.

was that rumor ever confirmed?

 

[Giard]

Would Sim City 4 be a good starting point for someone new to the series?

Sure. There's a learning curve, but every game in the franchise has that IMO.

So everyone thinks Rebellion wasn't worth it? I should stick with Trinity?

 

[Dog Problems]

Is the Shark Gun the only worthwhile DLC? I'm looking at the list and have no idea. What about the Season Pass?

It's not the only one worth getting but it's by far my favorite. I played through the game with it and it was the primary gun I used. So much fun.

Nintendo turned it down, too offensive.

 

[froliq]

Really enjoyed Saints Row so far. Normally I'd say such a game wouldn't be for me and now almost 13 hours clocked. Got me some last minute DLC. Season pass + maximum pleasure pack.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Nintendo turned it down, too offensive.

Wasn't that binding of Isaac?

 

[Nelo Ice]

It's not the only one worth getting but it's by far my favorite. I played through the game with it and it was the primary gun I used. So much fun.

It is my weapon of choice to punish those who are against the Saints.

 

[Wazzim]

RAGE doesn't even work? It only shows a black screen after the (campaign) intro, I already tried turning of V-Sync and am using a Nvidia card so it isn't that either..

 

[Sissel]

Wasn't that binding of Isaac?

Yea

Just thinking about playing Super Meat Boy with the awful 3DS dpad is making me physically ill.

 

[nickcv]

Nintendo turned it down, too offensive.

didn't they say that about the binding of isaac?

 

[Minion101]

Tried checking for new drivers?

 

[HoosTrax]

Out of all of the cosmetic DLCs, this one is the only one that looked like something I might use:

Money Shot Pack

The rest just look tacky as hell.

 

[wilflare]

perhaps i should finish the game first and grab the DLC later? (SR3)

it sure looks fancy as X)

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Is Terraria like Minecraft?

 

[xJavonta]

It wasn't the 3DS, it was the Wii. But I think they said Nintendo had a small file size limit for the game or something like that, so they ended up not doing it.

Trust me, you won't enjoy it more on a portable. Grab a 360 controller and get the PC version. The slidepad on the 3DS is not meant for SMB, you'd end up breaking it or something.

The PC version is better than the Xbox version too, the Internets isn't implemented on the 360 version because of Microsoft restrictions, but it's on the PC version.

Is Terraria like Minecraft?

I'd say there's more to do in Terraria than Vanilla Minecraft. They're both fun though, I'd recommend it if you're thinking about getting it.

 

[Tess3ract]

I want anno 2070 but not for $25. I'll buy it at around 8 or lower.

 

[pramath]

My haul so far:

1. Medieval 2: Total War Complete
2. Rome: Total War Gold
3. Sins of a Solar Empire
4. Company of Heroes
5. Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
6. Sim City 4*

*as soon as it goes on sale in ~2min

Not a bad haul at all, if I do say so myself.

 

[pock3tmonster]

I think I might hold off until Amazon's sale tomorrow. I didn't want to spend more than $10 on anything.

The Shark Gun is a nice novelty but not essential (cool to get when it's this cheap though).

Regarding the Season Pass, I felt that you could go either way with it. You can play through SR3 without that content and still get a good experience, or play your main story with those DLC missions sprinkled throughout your playthrough. If you find the DLC missions interesting, get them and play them in-between the main story missions. I played through SR3 on the 360 then got the Season Pass and played the DLC missions as they came, and while it was still fun I feel that one would enjoy the missions more by playing them during their main story to help prolong that experience.

[scorpscarx]

Risen 2 Dark Water's is the new flash, recycling deals confirmed.

 

[The Outsider]

Risen 2 is new flash sale. 33% off ($33).

Meh. Do not want.

 

[Enco]

Is Terraria like Minecraft?

Yes but more fun.

It actually has cool loot, fun bosses and a load of different areas and things to do. MC is boring as fuck in comparison. To me at least.

:lol Fable 3, Payday and Darkness. What a joke.

 

[fredrancour]

One day I will be able to afford a new computer. The first steam sale after that, my wallet shall bleed. Until then I stare covetously at the things I cannot run on my laptop

 

[Double]

Gabe, please let the 20th vote be between Street Fighter x Tekken and two empty spaces.

Why would you want to buy empty spaces?

 

[ImRight]

perhaps i should finish the game first and grab the DLC later? (SR3)

IDK bout u but if i finish the main plot of an open world and then try and do side missions n stuff, i just burnt out it sourta loses its appeal to me, i just went all in on SR3 and bought the full pack, its definatley worth it even if there are some semi/useless DLC's,

i like to take my time n finish of sidequests and every time i start getting kinda bored ill go do some main missions....

also to anyone that gets the dlc the Bloodsucker? pack think thats what its called give u a new ability that if you chose it u will lose all the Neck snapping animations , which kinda sucks... Just sayn'

ALSO 1 minute!! BUY BUY BUY

Dafuq.... Wasnt Risen a Community yesterday? is it any good?

 

[The Outsider]

Nothing from Community sales that interests me.

Will this be the first day I don't purchase anything?

 

[scorpscarx]

lol @ the new vote

 

[Huevos de Oro]

Risen 2 33% off. Not too attractive a deal.

 

[honorless]

Oh man, clone tentacles. I thought nickcv answered his own question for a few seconds and was VERY confused.

 

[mrgone]

That looks downright mandatory

 

[KarmaCow]

Risen 2 33% off ($33.49) is new flash sale.

Meh.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Funny how that feeling you normally get from subsequent Steam sales of being less excited because you already have a game from previous sales is now self-contained within this single sale.

Valve ingenuity!

 

[Gintoki]

I guess thats that for the sale.

 

[cpp_is_king]

Why do they keep repeating the same shit over and over? Do steam sales always work like this? There's plenty of crap that hasn't been on a flash or community vote yet, this is getting lame.

 

[Mikor]

Yes but more fun.

It actually has cool loot, fun bosses and a load of different areas and things to do. MC is boring as fuck in comparison. To me at least.

:lol Fable 3, Payday and Darkness. What a joke.

Hey now, Payday is excellent...nothing wrong with another opportunity for more to grab it! Especially considering Fable 3 and Darkness 2...

 

[HoosTrax]

Darkness II it is. (Why is Fable 2 still not on PC)

 

[Scoops]

Voted Payday because I've enjoyed it. No interest in the other two.

 

[graywolf323]

why does the Risen 2 flash sale tempt me so...

 

[toddhunter]

If Fable 3 fucking wins this...

 

[Ultimadrago]

 

[zkylon]

Gave my vote to PAYDAY, since I really like the game and wish more people would try it too.

 

[canadian crowe]

So are they saving the big guns for the last couple days, or is the sale pretty much done now?

I just want Splinter Cell on sale damn it!

 

[The Outsider]

Why do they keep repeating the same shit over and over? Do steam sales always work like this? There's plenty of crap that hasn't been on a flash or community vote yet, this is getting lame.

They're saving the best for last! Right, guys?
