Support NeoGAF

[legacyzero]

My last purchase I think may be World In conflict.

 

[Double]

Does the demo allow you to activate idols that increases the difficulty tenfold? Does the demo let you use a fully upgraded katana and slice enemies up? Does it progress you throughout the whole entire development of the story?

It does not!

Mine did!

 

[Martian]

Damage Done:


Alan Wake Complete : 7 €

Dear Esther : 5€

Fallout 3 GOTY : 5€

The Witcher 2 : 16€

Shogun 2: Total War : 10€

Tropico 3 : 3,50€

Total: 46,50€

Way more than I would have like to have spent, but I'm completely happy about my sales.

Now I see that Payday: The Heist's sale has gone? Was hoping to pick that up, and maybe AC:Revelations.

Spoiler

Unfortunately my laptop is being repared, and is gone until 2 weeks from now. So the goods will have to wait.

 

[LuffyZoro]

I am 80 percent sure it was! but I don't know how to check the past.

I'm 97% sure I saw all the deals, and it never came up.

 

[Yoshichan]

Today may be the worst day of sales of any type of product I've seen in the history of my life.

:lol the hyperbole begins!

...



I'll take it from here.

Hahahahaha

 

[jaundicejuice]

I would've bought Dustforce had it gone on sale. It hasn't been part of the daily indie bundles, it hasn't been a vote and I don't think it's been a flash.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Is FM12 one of those games that transcends the sport or do i need to know about players and teams more specifically to get the most out of it? I follow soccer from time to time and know the stars and leagues but don't know much beyond the bigger names. The series has always seemed fascinating though and the people that do play seem to get incredibly into it.

 

[Link Man]

Well, I've got Ys Oath in my cart, but I think I'll wait until tomorrow morning just in case.

Also, we really should have a 3rd thread by this point.

 

[Cheddahz]

Well, I've got Ys Oath in my cart, but I think I'll wait until tomorrow morning just in case.

It's not going to get any cheaper, just get it now!

Lol, you can't be serious. Have you seen this? http://store.steampowered.com/sub/12367/?snr=1_7_suggest__13

Or this: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/15360

Or this: http://store.steampowered.com/app/107100/

Or this: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/13701/

Or this: http://store.steampowered.com/app/35720/


Quit bitching. Just because you already have some of these games doesn't mean today is a bad day of sales.

 

[Wok]

I am 80 percent sure it was! but I don't know how to check the past.

I know it was not.

Edit: And here is the summary of my sale puchases. I would not have thought I would spend 35€, but that's what happened.

 

[Ostinatto]

how is Bioshock 1 & 2 (pc versions) ?

 

[arts&crafts]

I know it was not.

you all win I lose, i will buy some stuff now to ease the pain of being wrong

 

[Chairmanchuck]

My wallet is a bitch! Dont have any money for BS2 *lol*

 

[Yoshichan]

Yeah for sure, today isn't a bad sale-day. Heck, I should really buy Witcher 2, Trine 2, Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 (WOW, that's a lot of 2's)!

 

[Link Man]

It's not going to get any cheaper, just get it now!

But that would be violating the golden rule!

 

[HoosTrax]

Dustforce was -50% off for a Midweek Madness back in May. That's it.

 

[legacyzero]

how is Bioshock 1 & 2 (pc versions) ?

Pretty well optimized.

never dips below 60 FPS on my lowly 4890. Amazing games!

 

[Razek]

I don't want to jinx it but whats the biggest (after the rule) that a gaf thread has ever gotten before closing?

 

[Pancakes]

Well, I've got Ys Oath in my cart, but I think I'll wait until tomorrow morning just in case.

Also, we really should have a 3rd thread by this point.

It's not going to get any lower.

Yeah for sure, today isn't a bad sale-day. Heck, I should really buy Witcher 2, Trine 2, Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 (WOW, that's a lot of 2's)!

Buy Witcher 2!

 

[Dacvak]

My wallet is a bitch! Dont have any money for BS2 *lol*

Got any games you'd want to trade?

 

[wenis]

how is Bioshock 1 & 2 (pc versions) ?

If you can get only part 1, do that, but if there's a deal where 2 comes along with it, go for that. I wouldn't re-buy part 2 willingly unless it was tied in a sale with part 1.

Part 2 isn't bad, but it isn't great. Its good, but just more of the same.

my haul (minus the buttload of games I gifted to my brothers), really surprised by my restraint this Sale... I remember when I was droppin like 50 bucks everyday

my profile

 

[dani_dc]

Anyone know if Football Manager is any good? Never played any of them. Do they actually have license to use the players names?

That game is definitively not for everyone, you either wont care for it at all or you'll spend 300 hours on it.

I'd give the demo a try before buying it.

 

[RoaringHawk]

Yeah Dustforce didn't get a sale all week.

I know because it's the only game aside from Skyrim that I wanted from this sale... and I missed Skyrim 3 times so it's a double fail for me :S

 

[RedSwirl]

Ends in 23 hours 20 mins

So pick up Dark Messiah now or wait till tomorrow morning?

 

[Double]

...



I'll take it from here.

Uh-oh.

 

[Apdiddy]

Such an underwhelming end to the whole sale, but if you haven't gotten them during the whole sale or missed them, today's deals are pretty good. Although I'm hoping the flash deals today are good too. Beyond Good & Evil was only on sale once (and I was asleep when it happened ), no Doom/Quake packs, and most of the flash deals were starting to be recycled.

Still, for what I got, it was great.

At the end of it:

7/12
Legend of Grimrock
SpaceChem (very happy to have gotten this)
Back To The Future: The Game
Ys: Oath Of Felghana (gift)
Chantelise (gift)

7/13
Trine & Trine 2
Half-Life Complete (only time I saw this on sale)

7/14
Alan Wake Complete
Alice: Madness Returns
Ys Origins
Frozen Synpase
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Sam & Max Complete Collectiion
The Witcher 1 & 2

7/15
Monkey Island Bundle

7/16
The Longest Journey (gift)

7/18
Unreal 1 & 2
Just Cause 2
Grand Theft Auto Complete Package
Torchlight
Saints Row: The Third + Season Pass

7/19
Dreamfall: The Longest Journey

7/20
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines (only time I saw this as a flash deal)

I shudder to think of the cost at this point. Close to $100 I think.


Can anyone recommend the Operation Flashpoint games?

 

[arts&crafts]

It's not going to get any lower.

I voted for it in the community vote right before i went to bed last night, but i awoke to see something else

 

[Jzero]

Yeah for sure, today isn't a bad sale-day. Heck, I should really buy Witcher 2, Trine 2, Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 (WOW, that's a lot of 2's)!

Definitely buy Portal 1 & 2 if you haven't played them already.

 

[Cheddahz]

But that would be violating the golden rule!

I know, but it's ten bucks cheaper than it normally is and was part of a indie bundle (basically shooting the idea that it's going to get cheaper) and the experience as a whole is worth five bucks

 

[Tomat]

Alright, I think my purchases for this entire Steam sale will be as follows:
Crusader Kings II - $23.99
Mount & Blade: Warband : $11.00
Galactic Civilization II - $4.99
Total: $39.99

What say you GAF?

I'd grab that CK2 deal on Amazon but I don't have a credit card (Unless someone wants to trade the Amazon deal for an equivalent amount of money in Steam stuff).

 

[Dacvak]

Yeah for sure, today isn't a bad sale-day. Heck, I should really buy Witcher 2, Trine 2, Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 (WOW, that's a lot of 2's)!

You don't have Portal 2? That's WAY dumber than people not owning Bastion.

At least tell me you've played through it on (the entirely inferior) console, right?

 

[mneuro]

I don't own either witcher games. How is The Witcher 1? I am interested in them and Witcher 1 is 2.49. How does it compare to something like elder scrolls.

 

[Mavromatis]

Pretty well optimized.

never dips below 60 FPS on my lowly 4890. Amazing games!

Also too scary for me. If that isn't your cup of tea stay away.

But I got someone to play it for me, so that I can watch that beautiful graphics, especially water effects.

 

[The Wizard]

Yeah for sure, today isn't a bad sale-day. Heck, I should really buy Witcher 2, Trine 2, Portal 2 and Bioshock 2 (WOW, that's a lot of 2's)!

Get everything here except for Bioshock 2. Do it.

 

[Tess3ract]

Fine! Here it is my try, I'm horrible with Paint... Sorry jarosh!

Would like: Tobe's Vertical Adventure for the cuteness in pixel-art form.

This is kind of like that dude where he drew a picture of him going pee in the bathroom, but instead he was shitting and pissing at hte same time and he was on the ceiling. Kind of like that

 

[Pancakes]

I voted for it in the community vote right before i went to bed last night, but i awoke to see something else

That was Origin not Oath. Oath has been at $5.09 for most of the sale.

 

[Cheddahz]

I voted for it in the community vote right before i went to bed last night, but i awoke to see something else

That was Ys: Origin, not Ys: Oath

 

[Semblance]

I don't want to jinx it but whats the biggest (after the rule) that a gaf thread has ever gotten before closing?

Forget actual numbers, but this one won't even come close. They used to be absurd back in the day. The last World Cup thread basically broke GAF lol. Halo and Rock Band threads were enormous as well.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Got any games you'd want to trade?

Sadly not.
The only thing I have to trade is some 50cent Just Cause 2 Rifle *lol*

 

[Koroviev]

Last time that I beg here... but I am desperate since my paypal is empty.

Could someone gift me a copy of Arma II: Combine Operations in return of games from my inventory?

You have Arma (._. )

 

[Yoshichan]

You don't have Portal 2? That's WAY dumber than people not owning Bastion.

At least tell me you've played through it on (the entirely inferior) console, right?

I played the original Portal and thought that it was okay. When it eventually became the most overhyped piece of shit on this planet, I decided to dislike it. This was around the time when Portal 2 had just been released, so I decided to ignore it!

Mm-hmm!

 

[Martian]

Does anyone know what happened to the sale of Payday: the Heist?

And is there any chance at all there will be some last sales (Like crusader kings II?)

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh we're beyond 200 pages? My nipples are hard.

Anyway any games to suggest for 6 dollars?

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Well, I've got Ys Oath in my cart, but I think I'll wait until tomorrow morning just in case.

Also, we really should have a 3rd thread by this point.

It's not gonna get any lower. It was that price all summer sale.

 

[RoaringHawk]

Flash sales? Polls?

 

[FtHTiny]

No Alpha Protocol.
Everone said it will be back next sale. Everyone lied. =(

 

[Cutwolf]

Quit bitching. Just because you already have some of these games doesn't mean today is a bad day of sales.

That's false.

 

[LightofRohan]

Got a couple of dumb obvious questions that I shouldnt be wasting time asking, but want to just validate it.

1. I'm building a new computer, will everything I've been purchasing transfer easily w/ my steam account?

2. My gf is also getting a computer, could she use her account on this comp, buy games and then use it on her computer when she gets it?

Thanks

 

[K' Dash]

I just want you to know I'm up for buying a AC Revelations for $15, steam wallet money, I know it's not much, but I'd really appreciate that, I'll pay it forward.
