Support NeoGAF

[Cth]

I need to run this comp but I don't want to take away the spotlight from ImRights Competition which requires no effort, not like mine! Remember, he is giving away some quality games.

 

[Infinite Justice]

King of the Fort!!!!! AHHH YEEEEAAAAAAA

Now this sale is officially over for me (unless kind hearts can gift Bulletstorm or Far Cry Complete to me )



Thoughts:

My first Steam sale was alright but i could feel myself almost losing control a few times :/

The sales themselves were cool as a few times i felt bad for buying a certain game way earlier before the sale since i should have just waited.

The biggest disappointment were the amount of repeats and i felt the sale ran out of steam in the final 3 days or so.

Machinarium
STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl
Still Life Collection
FEAR Complete Pack (ROW)
Fallout 3 - Game of the Year
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate

I'm a bit late to this, but as everyone was posting their Steam IDs earlier, feel free to add me http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/micknick

 

[HDgaming42]

Glad that was $2.50. 74 minutes later...meh.

I'm all for experimental entertainment experiences so I thought I'd be big on this. I wasn't.

The only thing you can "interact" with is the landscape--by walking through it. And backtracking wasn't fun at that snail's pace.

Thankfully I have many other Steam Sale games to play!

 

[Plinko]

Should I just accept that Doom 3 is not getting a flash deal?

Yes. I accepted that Lego Batman 2 wasn't. Some games just aren't.

 

[Deliverance]

No Puzzle Agent deal yet, I'm sad

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

Time on my contest has expired, here are the winners:

Audiosurf goes to

BuddyJoeHooker

Winners will be contacted shortly. Thank you all for playing.

Thanks so much!

 

[ReverseFate]

Not that bad for my first summer sale!

 

[The Grim Heaper]

And did this result in 6 fewer people on your friends list?

Nope! My friends list actually bumped up about 30-40 people within 2 or 3 days.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Anyone know what the badges are for?

 

[legacyzero]

So I'm considering MW3.

Did that game ever get mod tool support?

 

[Kingven]

Mission Accomplished!

 

[dragonlife]

Guys, should I play Bastion or Ys: Origin first?

Ys as Yunica.

What you guys think?

Anything that shouldn't be there? Anything I'm missing?

I feel like I really wanted to get Dream Machine, and Ys... I don't know why I'm not adding them... I don't even want to spend $34 :/

Almost everything on there shouldn't be in there.

GET YS, WHOREWOOD.

 

[blazeuk]

Could have bought MW3/Guide at 75% off, got to the paypal screen to pay for it anyway (not sure if it would have went through after i clicked pay now but i dont see why not), but then backed out...I've already played it to death on Xbox360, but was somewhat curious to see how it played on the PC. Considering I didn't buy Arma II, which I do actually want I think it was more of a "Buy it, its a mistake!" reaction which I managed to slap myself out of.

 

[iAmMaximus]

Damage

TLR + Binary Domain were from other sales.

 

[HiiiLife]

STILL no Hitman huh Steam? I once again see options for GTA4, Alan Wake, MW3 AND Revelations but the one game I missed won't repeat.

*shakes head*

 

[Levyne]

Thinking of picking up Hawx and Hawx 2, anyone know if the dlc for 2 is worth it?

 

[PaulLFC]

Should I buy Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands if I haven't played it?

 

[RedSwirl]

Just so you know, Revelations is currently $10 at Best Buy. It's just the console version.

 

[Acageron]

Couldn't have asked for a better game as my first steam gift.

Magical horses await me, Thanks blah!

 

[Roubjon]

Is there a reason why I'm not getting the "Join the Summer Sale Group" achievement, even though I've already joined?

 

[SteveWinwood]

Ys as Yunica.

Almost everything on there shouldn't be in there.

GET YS, WHOREWOOD.

If you want me to get it so badly you should buy it for me

 

[Xater]

Wait is MW3 75% off in the US? It's only 50% off here in Germany. What a rip-off!

 

[Jzero]

Here's mine

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

Is there a reason why I'm not getting the "Join the Summer Sale Group" achievement, even though I've already joined?

Because he doesn't like us, that Gabe.

 

[Hypron]

Competition Time

I'm completely broke, I would have bought way more if I had any money ...

Edit: I still got both badges though, any news on whether we're going to get anything for them?

 

[Gen X]

It's the same thing, minus me adding funds. :U

It's not cos nothing there says when you purchased the items. There is no date stamp, no proof they were purchased during the sale. I mentioned that in the rules. #4 "All July Purchases and the last one prior to the summer sale must be viewable in the image (See my submission below)"

I'm sorry, but I am just trying to make this as fair as possible on all entrants.

9 Minutes Remaining!

 

[Roubjon]

Because he doesn't like us, that Gabe.

I hope he knows that I don't like him either!

 

[Levyne]

Wait is MW3 75% off in the US? It's only 50% off here in Germany. What a rip-off!

No, just 50%

 

[Hana-Bi]

And I'm playing Krater right now. So at least 1 game was played till the next sale.

 

[tjohn86]

Anything particularly good thats $2.50 or under?

 

[Chaos]

Spaz is tempting me for the last sale purchase.

 

[dragonlife]

If you want me to get it so badly you should buy it for me

I don't think I can support a man who spends $34 on bad games but can't spend $5.09 on a good one!

 

[twinturbo2]

Finally got my summer sale badge upgraded to King of the Fort. I'm done now. Will start Binary Domain later.

 

[DeadFalling]

Is there a reason why I'm not getting the "Join the Summer Sale Group" achievement, even though I've already joined?

Leave and rejoin

 

[gabbo]

My steam username is grosvenor. not Gabbo, so I hope that's okay with Gen X

 

[Shurayuki]

You know, all three games are ace. I've finished GTAIV, I own FO:NV and own Alan Wake but if I was going to vote it would be GTAIV just for that mod, but then, would I really play the game again, or just be impressed for half an hour then never play it again?

Thing too, there are three genres here. A thriller, an RPG and a sandbox so not everyone is into all of them. I can't decide on where to waste my vote!

Oh the games are definitely all ace, I'm more a fan of Infinity Engine Fallout though and Alan Wake is already mine and I'm looking forward to playing it very much. GTA IV was really cheap on Amazon last winter (5$=free if you had a code from the earlier sale) and honestly people might want to not get it on steam to have less of a hassle getting the mod working, but who am I kidding haha.

What kind of framerates should you expect in order to be able to get the game looking like that.

Sethos makes it sound very easy but if we're honest many people have problems getting even the vanilla game to run acceptably so be wary!

 

[arts&crafts]

Anything particularly good thats $2.50 or under?

The binding of issac! But you seem like a reasonable man so you probably already own it.

 

[Danielsan]

Analogue or Splice, but I already gifted it to you.

Once again thanks a ton Xater. If I notice a good deal on either of those games you'll be the first to know.

 

[Sajjaja]

Anyone figure out that code?

 

[SteveWinwood]

I don't think I can support a man who spends $34 on bad games but can't spend $5.09 on a good one!

A lot of that is going to get cut. I just can't decide what yet.

Probably splice and shuggy as they seem like stuff that will be in indie bundles or daily deals in the next few months. It's kind of sad as they're probably the ones that deserve my money the most, but I gotta watch out for my wallet

 

[dani_dc]

Wait is MW3 75% off in the US? It's only 50% off here in Germany. What a rip-off!

It was 75% off for a few minutes, a mistake that was quickly corrected.

 

[Xater]

Here is my relatively small haul because I like playing on my Mac.

 

[Codeblue]

I ended up with:

Ys Origin and Oath of Felghana
Frozen Synapse Red DLC

for $15.06.

Debating Just Cause 2 and Prince of Persia 2008 at the moment, but other than that I'm done.

My most successful sale in terms of self control yet.

 

[Razek]

Anyone figure out that code?

No ones even working on it anymore, he should just tell us.

Do it...

DO IT

 

[The_Monk]

The Code... could no be...cracked!

 

[pock3tmonster]

If I buy Oddboxx, will I receive the HD update(s) for Stranger's Wrath when completed?

 

[Codeblue]

Do it...

DO IT

Well Ok, but only because you have a Fire Emblem avatar.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Another badge.

The OCD in me rejoices!
