STEAM IS OFFICIAL ON LINUX!

Awesome.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

.

LOL damn SteamGAF is stepping it up this year.

 

[SolarPowered]

Vote Deus Ex for the next deal. I know people will probably vote CoD, but I really want Deus Ex.

Edit: LOL I remember that GIF from last year's sales!

There's another 25 hours on the clock.

That is lovely. Thanks a bunch!

 

[Katoki]

hey no one told me about this!

Tony wanted to keep low profile about it because he kept getting flack about it so he had someone else post in the Steam thread I think. That or I was in the Amazon one for no apparent reason and it happened, but it's more likely to be the former.

 

[jph139]

Europa Universalis is so confusing - I can never even figure out where to start. But I feel like I'd be disappointing Tony is I took a free key and didn't use it, so I must soldier on...

 

[SteveWinwood]

i know this was prolly addressed a million times in the last OT, but: do i want dear esther for a snickers bar? i dont mind short artsy games but they gotta be good, ive no idea why i bought cemetery.

Buy it.

 

[xJavonta]

I'm so proud

Spoiler

ashamed

of myself

I haven't bought a single thing during this summer sale.

 

[Smash88]

Nevermind.

I'm hella late to the party.

 

[kevin1025]

Do you guys think any of the publisher packs are going to go down in price? I'm holding out for the Telltale pack.

 

[diamount]

I've been meaning to get EU3 after CK2 was on sale.

 

[Dacvak]

So do we need a separate thread for Steam officially being announced for Linux?

Close enough.

 

[SteveWinwood]

So do we need a separate thread for Steam officially being announced for Linux?

It got one like half an hour ago.

Edit: 2 hours! Besides it was already official. The only new thing is the blog.

 

[Exuro]

It's pretty big news and it's finally official with a blog post.

Are you using a guide?

I WAS LATE ALRIGHT! I GET IT! *sobs*

 

[Edgeward]

Subscribed, for science.

Anybody know if Singularity PC supports an xbox controller?

It does.

 

[Salsa]

So what recently purchased games have you guys played already?

gettin Sakura back in shape. Been a while, but im gettin there. Already dominating people on my friends list but being occasionally beaten to a pulp by online randoms.

Shazbot!


main reason im jumping back and forth between these is cause they allow me to play quick sessions and keep aware of the sales/the thread when im at my PC. Started a new playthrough of Alpha Protocol before sales started.. yeah that's not gonna happen now


might just dim the lights and jump into Dear Esther now, since I hear it's short.

 

[Dacvak]

We're all laughing at you. All of us, laughing at your lateness!

No that doesn't happen

 

[Jasper Avenue]

Today did some damage.

Fallout 3: GOTY
Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition
Fear Collection
Mirror's Edge
Civilization V: Game of the Year

Annnnnnd another $50 goes into the Steam wallet.

 

[Esiquio]

Bought Portal 1 + 2, Half Life 2 + HL2: Episode 1, Borderlands GOTY, L4D2, and pulling the trigger on AC: Brotherhood right now.

So far a pretty good Steam Sale.

 

[Zebra]

i know this was prolly addressed a million times in the last OT, but: do i want dear esther for a snickers bar? i dont mind short artsy games but they gotta be good, ive no idea why i bought cemetery.

I honestly think it's one of the definitive artsy games, certainly in terms of storytelling.

 

[statham]

Silly question: Is the Amazon version Steam usable and will the Amazon sale last past tonight?
I'd like a friend to pick up a copy in the near future.

I bought mine a couple of hours ago, and it was the steam version. they give you the steam code.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

So what recently purchased games have you guys played already?

I got about an hour into Saints Row III, which turns out to be pretty damn fun. I really want to try The Darkness II tomorrow, too.

Pretty far into Hard Reset. Really liked it at first, starting to wear thin, though. Still pretty fun, but ready for it to be over.

Few hours into Dead Island. Seems pretty mediocre, but having a few friends with you makes everything fun.

Few hours of Payday. That game is fucking tough for newbs. Pretty awesome, though.

I pity you. There's always winter sale.

 

[jph139]

Are you using a guide?

I've watch other people playing it and such, but no, no formal guide. Is there some sort of standard?

 

[NullPointer]

I played that game for 5 mins, realized it didn't have subtitles, quit it, and haven't touched it since.

Lazy.

So... no subtitles. OK, I'm going to consider that a clue in this mystery of mine. Thanks.

It does.

Ah thanks. Now hopefully I'll see a discount at some point. Cheers.

Binding of Issac. It's a pretty alright game, I've gotten more than my 1 buck and some cents out of beating the basement with him and the "extra characters."

I'm looking forward to trying Shatter next.

I just finished downloading SF4:AE. We should play.

Spoiler

I'm horrible.

 

[Pyccko]

Christ, I don't even wanna list what I got so far. Let's just say I'm going to be subsisting on a diet of ramen and water for the rest of this month. Best moment so far: buying Dear Esther this morning literally 5 minutes before it went up as a daily. "Naw, they wouldn't waste a slot on that," I thought, "I don't have THAT bad of luck."

5 minutes later END MY LIFE FOR $2.50

Whatever, at least I have some games on this PC now. Too many games.
oh god what have I done

 

[wheepenpen]

I've got a few extra Crusader Kings 2 song codes if anyone wants them, just quote.

Holy Land
Albion
Faith

 

[Nemesis121]

I hope JC2 shows up tomorrow...

Just sayin!

we should, but I bet our latency doesnt think so



im far away

 

[QuiteWhittle]

I really should have bought Fallout:GOTY and Ys:Origins when I had the chance
Any chance for the sales to return? On Monday, perhaps?

 

[Riggs]

Nice thread lovely salsa shark.

Loving Sr3 my dude is a big fat nerd hacker goth combat boots wearing pussy getting wonder boy.

 

[Gbraga]

I already have enough games to play until the next summer sale lol

 

[Zebra]

I've already beaten Deus Ex: HR and loved it. I am now playing Trine 2 and it's ridiculously gorgeous.

 

[Katoki]

Or the recap day!

You learned rule #1

Good morning Europe.

I see BG&E didn't win the community vote, stupid people

 

[JaseC]

So far a pretty good Steam Sale.

No Episode Two?

 

[Universaldamps]

Gah. I can't decide if I want Dead Rising 2. I liked the first one on the 360, despite being rather difficult. Is it worth my $10? I have 1 hour to decide :-(

 

[Katoki]

Neither of them have been dailies so there's a chance for that.

 

[NullPointer]

It's all good friend. I'll take what I can get.

 

[Card Boy]

Im spewing i missed out of SSF4: AE, but i already got it on PS3 and part of my brain said ef it when i woke up at sparrow farts in the morning.

 

[Zebra]

Nonsense. You must plow through them all before the winter sale.

 

[K' Dash]

I can't spend more money on this sale GAF, I went over my budget, what do I do, what THE FUCK DO I DO!, FUCK!
