Is Test Drive Unlimited 2 still as bad as all the impressions last year? I always loved the concept of the game but stayed away at release. PC Gamer gave it a 90%. It never got a daily/flash and it's $10 now.

Arkham City worth buying now or should I just wait for the GOTY version?

Well last year Arkham Asylum went on sale for around $10 in the Summer Sale then $5 at Xmas. I'm hoping this year will follow suit.

GOTY

The DLC is super cheap so just get it now.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Arkham City worth buying now or should I just wait for the GOTY version?

It'd probably be worth it now. You can pick up the Harley Quinn DLC for $3 for a total of $14. I'd assume a GOTY version would have that and maybe 1 more DLC at 3 times the price.

GO FOR BROKE

 

[Mutagenic]

I regret not buying Yesterday when it was cheaper. I may have to buy it anyways before the sale ends.

Yes.

It's built into the PC version, yes.

There's no resisting the power of Steam.

There's no resisting the power of Steam.

I am disproving your point

 

[zkylon]

Sorry I'm so late.

Hate that they moved the tree, makes the gif look weird.

Yeah it kinda ruins it. Good job though.

Some many adventure games to go around, did you play Christine Love's games, typing up Blackwell now from the Gemini Rue crew.

 

[EarsOfASnake]

Must resist Dead Island for another 50minutes, lucky Witcher will be done by the time I wake up

 

[ImRight]

What if somebody picks the same number?

Assuming that number Gets picked, They will be put back into another random draw.

34 Entries so far, draw will commence up to 20 mins after it reaches 40 or at 50

Your image isn't displaying. I have Gemini Rue but haven't played it yet. Never heard of the Blackwell stuff but may look into it. I need Yesterday and Lone Survivor, ugh.

If you wanna 4-pack it my friend keeps bugging me to buy it, I'm trying to resist as well

Cant recommend galactic civ II enough

The last frame just needs to be zoomed in to the top right corner by about 15%.

Splinter Cell Conviction... can't decide if I want it or not.

Must. Spend. Last. 5.52

 

[LOZLINK]

Pretty decent sale. Got Arma 2, mirrors edge, dead island, Vegas ultimate, Trine 2 and clear sky. Pretty broke til Thursday so I wasn't able to gift crazy like last year. Used to troll people with gifts like train Sims and Victoria 2 to people I know wouldn't play them :lol

 

[EarsOfASnake]

Oh no, I am in the same situation. Combined we are 4. This is not good.

Because it was supposed to be a link, steam sales make sleep go all awry. Play Gemini Rue!

 

[DeadFalling]

Well my friend already has it. So we are only 3 combined. We'd need another willing soul to complete the sacrifice to Gaben

SSF4:AE on the next community sale, BELIEVE.

 

[Chris R]

This can't be it right? If so wouldn't this be basically the worst final day of any steam sale so far?

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

SSF4:AE on the next community sale, BELIEVE.

Digital version of SSFIV:AE has been 10 bucks on Amazon for some time.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Okay I'm saying right now that the worst thing about this year's sale (outside of kingdoms of amulur not going on sale, stupid rhode island) was those indie bundles. It might be better for a lot of those devs, but it was terrible for me (and I'm assuming many others who have been on steam awhile and have some games built up). They rarely got discounts outside of them, and I'm not going to spend $10 to buy a game in a pack where I own the other 4. I'm looking through some of my wishlist as per last day tradition, and I'm kind of disappointed that I didn't get stuff like Splice or Lone Survivor, both in bundles where I owned all the rest of the games. By themselves Lone Survivor only got 35% off and Splice was 50% (which isn't too bad for a normal flat rate during the sale) but it's totally something that would have gotten a 75% off during a daily or something.

At the end of the day, it was a good sale overall, and I picked up a lot of stuff. Valve changes how they do stuff and experiment all the time. I'm glad they try new things, makes some of this stuff exciting. But I'm not sure the daily indie bundles were good for me. I'm sure Valve knows whether they were good for them or the developers though and I bet next sale we'll see, in what has changed, what did and didn't work in that.

The temptation is strong but I think I shall hold out for the winter sale.

Good thing I picked it up this morning then. Although it might be months, or even years before I get around to playing it.

I am a fool. Thank you thank you this is excellent news

 

[Glorified G]

Thanks to DTKT for Spaz. You Gaffers are much to kind.

Agreed. Thanks DTKT

Can someone tell me why Faerie Solitaire is so special? No one's answering in the other thread.

Splinter Cell Conviction... can't decide if I want it or not.

I will help you decide: Ubisoft secretly re-activated their always-on DRM a few weeks backs in SC: Conviction (after they patched it out before).

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

I am a fool. Thank you thank you this is excellent news

No Prob. It was getting worrying that no one has thought about Amazon, so I wasn't exactly worried about SSFIV:AE not getting discounted again during Steam Summer Sale (then again I'm not buying it for 2 reasons).

to add some weight to this question, i second this (just as in the other thread)

 

[Datwheezy]

Just realized I have a copy of Nuclear Dawn sitting in my inventory. First to quote me with their steam id can have it

 

[Beast Legacy]

Careful. I don't think that one activates on Steam if you care about everything you own being on it.

The dev gave away 20k or something like that code keys at steamgift and on reddit too I think a while back so lots of people know about it from that.

edit: I played it for a bit after I got a key, seems like an alright game.

 

[deejay]

It's sollitaire with collectibles and a story. You get quite a lot of gameplay for that price. I had fun with it

Just noticed that 11 of my Steam friends own it.

Also seconding the question now.

I tend to agree with this sentiment. If they would have at least made the extra copies giftable I probably would have bought a couple different bundles and hooked my friends up with games I already had.
