Can't say much about the dlc either but I'm happy with the vanilla game and I'm sure that's enough for my CK II fix. Still on my first "play through" clocking something like 15 hours and about to found the british empire.

Thanks! Yeah, it randomly fixed itself when I hit the back button from a store page.
If you only want to experience one "true" splinter cell game, get Chaos Theory.

Indeed. I wonder how front-page deals get picked. There are a trove of lesser-known games at heavy discounts that deserve to get checked out but won't because they don't get any front page exposure.
I'll just skip this vote, the chance of it screwing up and not giving the "vote every day" cheevo is pretty slim right? (got the 20 votes phew).
That's not really hidden flash sales, just games with big discounts which aren't advertised (either it's a conspiracy by gaben against them, or well the other just seemed more important).
My wishlist told me that and Aaaaaa.[..] for the awesome have been -75 for the whole sale.

Yeah, that's really annoying.
But it still works in the browser for some reason, or at least it did last time I checked.
Edit: Or not, I'm just way late here.

The problem is it doesn't even show up when you click on MP3, like a lot of the other past games do in other series. Like when you click on fallout:NV it also shows you FO3.

Me and my friends are still torn on which Splinter Cell to get.
We want good multiplayer but we also want a fairly modern looking game that isn't a pain in the ass to set up online play. Since one of my friends probably wouldn't be buying (he is still a poor college student with no cash), price is also an issue since I'd be ponying up for 2 copies, personally.

I just went back to the store and to the wishlist again and it had fixed itself.
I still see prices on my wishlist.

In the spirit of giving, I have purchased a Plants vs. Zombies (for the plebs that STILL haven't bought this yet!) Please leave it to just those that do not have the game.
The requirement!....an uncreative MATH PROBLEM! (make sure you post your Steam Id afterwards or I won't count it)
3 + 2 + 67 - 9 x 9 - 2 x 3 x .5 = ?

I should do this:
A guy did this for the Oktoberfest (in Munich obviously) and he had made by far the most money I've ever seen on a beggar! (of course they always take away the money so it seems they didn't get a lot but still)

Maybe there's some hope then. I mean with BF3 being out, idk who is actually still buying BC2. I played the hell out of it on 360 and just wanted to double dip for cheap.

Mr. Community
Is the Fallout: New Vegas DLC worth paying twice the price of F:NV alone?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Don't want any games, just wanted to say the people doing the giveaways and gifting games for free are pretty cool, thanks for keeping things fun while we wait to be disappointed with the new dailies batch!

Sword of Islam (which isn't in the collection) is the only DLC that really matters, and even that is only if you intend to play as a Muslim character. The collection just adds some cosmetic stuff, so it depends on how much you value those few dollars, but it's not needed.

Apart from suffering from acute Stack of Doomeritis and annoying random events (rulers with good stats will always inexplicably die, yet the ones who suck are cockroaches i tell ya) Paradox games are some of the most fascinatingly deep strategy games you will find.
For most nations, you will have to give up your dreams of grandeur though, just staying alive/unvassaled will be hard as nails especially in europe (is this only europe? never understood, always played japan in europa universalis)
It takes a while to get to grips with how to do anything, but these games are pretty amazing once they ironed out the bugs that their releases are infamous for.

Shit Sim City 4 was $5 I'm going to buy it for $10 right now, how the hell did I miss it for $5
Dang. I really enjoyed Machinarium, but I don't think I'd enjoy Botanicula as an interactive story. Watching the GB Quick Look just now gave me the same impression. I was hoping for another atmospheric puzzle game like Machinarium. Oh well.
It was up for 8 hours as a community vote.

I don't agree with that assessment. Sure, it doesn't have as much exploration as a traditional point-and-click adventure game but the puzzles are still there and they are challenging. You won't be gliding through the game like you would a storybook.
I Have a Windows 7 64bits, Geforce 570 and Intel i5 2500k. All my games runs flawless, just Splinter Cell have this problem. The game runs with really well, but in 3 minutes everything becomes slowmotion, until i press ALT-TAB and return to the game. If you go to the Ubisoft forum, there is a lot of people with the same problem. And Ubisoft does nothing about it. Anyway the game is great, even with this anoying thing. I love Splinter Cell franchise. Played all the games. Just wished Conviction had no problems.
