Ignore this user.

No, listen to that Guy. Shift 1 is superior in every way, plus Shift 2 is super frustrating at times

 

[WAR recon zero]

kicking myself for not buying l4d2 for a friend any chance it will go on the recap?

 

[Pancakes]

Out of all the driving games, which one should I get?

NFS, Driver, Burnout.

I haven't played Driver that much but NFS vs. Burnout Paradise? I personally believe that Paradise is far more fun than Hot Pursuit.

 

[throwawayname]

How is Shift's 2 multiplayer?

 

[Petrie]

Get Magicka, jump on the 4 pack deal for Dungeon Defenders, the rest is either over 5$ or not worth it.

Well I'm not opposed to over $5, it just has to be unlikely to drop much more and/or a must play at the price.

 

[VertPin]

Since when was Fallout 3 GOTY only $5?! EVERYONE needs this game in their collection!

 

[MRORANGE]

Out of all the driving games, which one should I get?

NFS, Driver, Burnout.

All, but Burnout is this gen's stand-out racing game for sure.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Hmm... Driver or Shift 2 Unleashed?

 

[NZNova]

Yes there seems to be singleplayer in RO2 but...eh

your money is better spent elsewhere if you're not gonna play MP

Alrighty, I'll give it a miss. Cheers.

 

[DukeBobby]

Just grabbed Far Cry for £1.24. Damn, the graphics look good for an 8 year old game (judging by the screenshots).

 

[Dingotech]

Still waiting...

Risen... buy or no buy considering TAGES DRM?

 

[Delusibeta]

What DLC is missing from Burnout?

The Pc version of Burnout Paradise is basically the Ultimate Box, there's nothing released after that (so no Cops & Robbers, no Big Surf Island and no premium cars).

 

[Jables Swan]

All, but Burnout is this gen's stand-out racing game for sure.

Oh is it that good? Maybe I should get it. Bargain really.

Oh god I hope Gaikai fails.

I don't need any garbage cloud gaming.

I was reading that earlier today lol, thought no one would be interested in Cloud Gaming if I posted it lol.

 

[wenis]

Strongly considering buying Deus Ex w/ all of the DLC...yay or nay?

Paradise is great fun if you like having to rely on your GPS to figure out which way to go, and having it wait until the very last sec to point you the right way. At which point, it's too late to make the turn without plowing into something.

Burnout is an open world racer. NFSHP is a closed, linear track (with shortcuts) racer.

 

[scorpscarx]

Why are you even asking us this?

 

[NZNova]

Hmm... Driver or Shift 2 Unleashed?

Of those two, IMO, Driver.

Errrrrr pretty sure you'd still have access to normal Steam stuff bro

Thanks a lot guys! I remember really good things about Burnout!
Getting ready to buy.

 

[Danielsan]

Ooh man. I think I have to get Burnout Paradise, even though I already own it for the PS3.

 

[kafiend]

OT, but has anyone successfully gotten ENB to work with Driver San Francisco? The lighting seemed a bit dull, and sure enough there appears to be a problem with HDR. I tried the files I found on the Steam forums, but those give me a blank, white screen. I can hear the game running in the background, so at least it boots.

Use the resident evil 4 version from http://enbdev.com/download_en.htm
Its filename is enbseries_re4_v0075b.zip cant link direct to the file.

 

[Varna]

All these racing game sales remind me... why can't there be one decent pc Twisted Metal clone.

 

[HockeyDud]

I have been having freezing issues with Driver all day. The game runs good for about a minute or two, then freezes. Anyone else with this issue?

Auto Assault

Spoiler

lol

 

[Petrie]

If anybody is doing a magika 4 pack, id love to buy 2 copies. Pm me. Want them for gifts.

 

[DeVeAn]

Fuck, got Hot pursuit and Burnout I wish I didn't know this sale existed...

 

[Dingotech]

Patched out.

http://store.steampowered.com/news/7496/

Sick! Thanks heaps.

I was sure I read that it was, but I wasn't sure if the Steam version got it.

They really need to remove it from the store page.....

 

[wenis]

Why are you even asking us this?

because i honestly don't know. i haven't exactly had money to buy games in awhile and havent been keeping up in this thread...

jeez.

 

[PBalfredo]

Bit of a tangent, but does anyone know how the Steam cloud works in regards to game saves? I got a virus on the computer I've been playing Saints Row the Third (first and best acquisition from the sale) on and want to preserve my save for when I reformat

 

[dragonlife]

I think he means "Of course you should," or "You know we're going to say 'Yes'."

You're fine with just The Missing Link for DLC, though.

 

[Sarcasm]

The Pc version of Burnout Paradise is basically the Ultimate Box, there's nothing released after that (so no Cops & Robbers, no Big Surf Island and no premium cars).

Than why get it? I am confused..so you buy ultimate all you get is some cars? No Cops & robbers..etc?

 

[MRORANGE]

Oh is it that good? Maybe I should get it. Bargain really.

yes indeed, Criterion was really pumped to get this game on PC and it's a fantastic port, shame about the DLC though, but that was more likely down to EA.

Game works with multiple monitors as well (not mine):

 

[Artofwar420]

So I live in Washington state, therefore I get taxed when I purchase things through Steam (located here).

How acceptable is it to change my address to one from another state? Would my account be at risk?

 

[jph139]

Agh. I bit on The Witcher... coin came up heads and hell why not.

Leaves me with $.74. Maybe I'll get, like... a hat or something.

Is that tax evasion?

 

[Mavromatis]

There is some discussion on Steam Forums about the DLCs, I think some managed to activate them using some "mods". Also the fixed 60hz wasn't nice for my CRT.

Pay your taxes dude.

Delicious :3 :3 :3

 

[DyslexicAlucard]

I still totally have 3 copies of GalCiv II to sell at $5. A few people how PM'd me and added me on Steam, but I'm terrible with names and forget the random names I just accepted by the time I scroll through my (decently large) friends list. So the first people to add me on Steam and message me get to buy them.

One more left...

Does burnout paradise require Origin?

 

[ShaneB]

Bought ITSP at least, and I'm always always always tempted to double dip on Burnout Paradise I'm enjoying Hot Pursuit, but man I miss that open world enjoyment. I'm down to 16 dollars... I can resist Burnout Paradise again, I played the hell out of it on 360. For those that don't own it, yes you most certainly should buy it!

 

[MRORANGE]

Blur.

Does burnout paradise require Origin?

No, but you can add it to Origin.

 

[Red Blaster]

Strongly considering buying Deus Ex w/ all of the DLC...yay or nay?

Do it

 

[Artofwar420]

Pay your taxes dude.

I have! About 20 dollars worth just this sale alone. I'm just curious is all.

 

[Dacvak]

The Dungeon Defenders is filled!

So far we have:

• Dacvak
• wanders
• pock3tmonster
• Reluctant-Hero

I'll buy it now and send you guys PMs.

 

[SteveWinwood]

That is the worst community vote of all time.

 

[Trojita]

Is there anyway to remove or hide games? I hate these expansions that have their own game banner. Like Allen Wake and its expansion.
