Oh. Okay then, thought I messed up in grammar. Ever since I started studying for the SAT I've started getting paranoid about grammar errors.

Haha, nah man you're cool!

What is broken sword?

A Point and Click Adventure game. It's a classic.

It is?

 

[ImRight]

I don't know if anybody noticed it yet but now the "All Games" list on my community page displays their sizes, installation status and percentage.

But the listing seems to be quiet random.

Uhh i had this but that was only when i was downloading the games? are they ones ur downloading or updating atm? cause mine was showing that but not anymore....

 

[FloppyDelux]

Broken Sword? BROKEN SWORD?!

*searches for it immediately*

HOLY SHIT it's the fucking entire Broken Sword collection for 2.50 Euro! I'm buying this shit NOW.

edit: Thanks for the reminder Tess3ract!!

wait for daily deal?

 

[Yoshichan]

What is broken sword?

An amazing point'n'click adventure game with ridiculously good atmosphere.

 

[Moppet13]

I really want terraria to go on sale.

really?

 

[Smash88]

Man fuck legos.

Not sure if making fun of me or....?

I'd rather another solution because I'm noticing the new beta drivers (which i don't have) give like a 20% increase to Arkham City on a GTX 670.



I will give it a try

Fair enough. If you can find another solution by all means try it. But I've had this before for some other games with an older ATI card and had to roll back.

 

[Tess3ract]

also which stalker should i buy im only gonna buy one...

for the billionth time:

 

[Danielsan]

Picked up Metro 2033 during the last winter sale and it was all I played for the next 2 weeks. I loved the atmosphere and the feeling of being a survivor, picking up un-cracked gas masks and charging my torch so I don't get lost in the dark. Loved it.

Damn, 2 weeks? Just how long is this game? The gas mask effect is stellar. I love how you vision slowly gets worse as your filter runs out, you start breathing heavier and condensation forms within the mask. The sound effects are fantastic and really get under your skin. Also the fact that ammo equals currency is brilliant. It adds an extra layer to being conservative with your ammo.

Oh fuck yeah, glad to hear you're enjoying it! I have so much shit to play (I NEED TO PLAY JOURNEY NOW!) but I really want to play Metro 2033 the first thing I do tomorrow morning!

Yes you need to play Journey Yoshi. No more excuses! If you do start Metro 2033, give it at least 2 hours or so. Once you get to the Dead City you truly realize how good this game's atmosphere is.

 

[phantomspiker]

Why isn't Alan Wake an option for the vote? Please Steam!

I really want terraria to go on sale.

...

I'm on to you!

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

What is broken sword?

A 2D Adventure game based around mainly Europe, it stands out for having a really amazing voice cast and a script that takes advantage of that.

The first 2 are some of the best games ever made.

 

[Yoshichan]

wait for daily deal?

It's 2.50 euro, I'll gladly give them the extra euro or whatever :3 Broken Sword II was my frikkin' childhood!

 

[Mavromatis]

edit: Thanks for the reminder Tess3ract!!

Both the first and the second game has been remastered and I can say the additional content for the first one is quite good. It was a daily deal at June for the same price.

 

[Betta Lines]

Is it worth checking out Thief after all these years? I have a copy of Thief 3 somewhere, but it ran really badly on my shite system back then, so I never got into it. But it's the first two that people seem to mention whenever 'stealth done right' is discussed...

 

[Lyude77]

Since we're over halfway there...I'm curious how other people are faring when it comes to the games they wanted to pick up. Have you been able to get what you wanted for the right price already, or are you waiting for better deals/the last day?
(...Did you even make a list before the event at all? Have you just been impulse buying everything and anything?)

This is mine:

crossed off the list
Q.U.B.E.
Trine 2

will buy
Dark Void Zero
Satazius
Splice
A Virus Named Tom (not technically part of the summer sale, but currently 50% off)

might buy
Adventures of Shuggy
Waves
Blocks That Matter
Diamond Dan

it could happen, maybe
Season of Mystery: The Cherry Blossom Murders
Fortix 2
Waveform
Cogs

only if dropped to 50-75% off
Krater
Yosumin!

The only purchases that I didn't plan on making pre-sale were Terraria and Binding of Isaac. If Krater gets to 50% that'll be another.

I actually didn't plan at all, but it's gone well so far. I've stayed under my budget and gotten game I really like. The only one I'm really looking at that I haven't gotten yet is Tobe's Vertical Adventure. I'm gonna wait on Lone Survivor, and I may get Solar 2 and Eversion eventually/next sale.

You're not done until Gaben says you're done.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

wait for daily deal?

75% and $2.50 is pretty safe.

 

[Tess3ract]

I really want terraria to go on sale.

Guys I heard Crysis 2 is on sale!

 

[arts&crafts]

Does anyone have Krater? I am going to buy it at the end on sale (Dear lord i will never forgive this world) or not and I am wondering if the dlc for it is good.

 

[Reagan's BR]

...

I'm on to you!

Haha someone got it.






But I actually did miss Alan Wake...

 

[PaulLFC]

Just bought Railworks... I figured there's only so many 90% off sales I can resist before my curiosity gets the better of me.

Surprised it's 13GB though, does it download all the DLC with it and just lock it off until you buy it or something?

 

[inky]

How's LA NOIRE DLC? Important or skippable?

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Sold!!!

 

[MrCunningham]

I loved Sim City 2000 back in the day. Never played Sim City 3 or 4.

Is 4 worth picking up?

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

You're not done until Gaben says you're done.

Gaben just called, we ain't done.

 

[Smash88]

wait for daily deal?

I played Tobe, it's not fun. The controls are annoying and the game just isn't very enjoyable.

 

[Big Chungus]

How do you know if a copy of Left4Dead 2 is uncut or not?

Don't want to end up with a gutted version if I trade with someone.

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Sold!!!

Hope you like them.

That beard suits him.

 

[Yoshichan]

Gaben is cute :3

 

[bryehn]

Thankfully, my CC takes a few days to update, so I can't tally right now, but I've bought at least 35 separate titles (mostly SteamPlay).

Haven't really gamed on PC since 2002/3, so most of the stuff I bought is new to me.

 

[Card Boy]

I will give it a try

update: Going into full screen mode breaks it into those crazy textures. I tried replacing the files with the 64bit version as suggested on the Steam forums and it fixed it completely and I even got a massive FPS increase.

Steam overlay doesn't work though with the 64bit version. Any suggestions?

 

[Gbraga]

Does the Director's Cut changes the game enough to be worth a consecutive playthrough or it's more about the beginning?

 

[SteveWinwood]

Not sure if making fun of me or....?

Yep.

I don't play with legos because clue has a story.

It's called imagination. You can use it every once and a while.

 

[Smash88]

Gaben is cute :3

I'd marry him.

Spoiler

I'm not even joking. DAT BEARD!

 

[shintoki]

Looking at some other gaffers on Steam. I actually have a good amount of my games played.

/proud
/Buys more

 

[Tess3ract]

My beard is better but not greying, if you've seen it.

 

[Mavromatis]

Does the Director's Cut changes the game enough to be worth a consecutive playthrough or it's more about the beginning?

Assuming you are talking about Broken Sword, I'd say yes. It gives a nice background story to Nicole.

 

[NullPointer]

I'd marry him.

Spoiler

I'm not even joking. DAT BEARD!

And seriously, think of the discounts you'd get.

 

[C.T.]

broken sword is amazing. Played the first 2 two years ago and loved them. Haven't finished the third though. The 3d (and controls) kind of put me off.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Well, about to break my two day Steam sale dry spell with:

Thief Collection
Fortune Summoners
Sim City 4
and Broken Sword on impulse (even though I've bought way more adventure games than I have patience for this sale).

Time to open up the spreadsheet of shame

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

so was the last Broken Sword any good? I've played the first 2 in iOS (which has gone free a few times).

 

[c0Zm1c]

Can I vote Fable 3 be loaded into a rocket and fired into the sun?
