Madwall has kindly donated a 75% of Trine 2 coupon, so I can hold a mini contest!

THE CONTEST

Write a one paragraph+ erotic fan fiction starring the characters of Trine 2 and post it here!

I'll choose the winner in an hour and fifteen minutes, at 9:00 PM EST!

GO GO GO!

It was a normal day on the journey of your three heroes. Amadeus was busy taking a short cat nap, Zoya off on her own, and Pontius drinking the night away. "Hark, thief," Pontius shouted to Zoya, "come over and enjoy a drink!" A sly smile crawls upon Zoya's face as she seductively walks over to the obviously drunk Pontius, bending down and rubbing her bosom against his shining armor. "Whatever do you need now, Pontius? Would you like... a kiss from a fair maiden?" Pontius, as confused as ever, starts fumbling over his words. "A-a-a WHAT?! You wish to show me your affection?! If you say so..." Pontius puckers his lips and leans forward. Zoya does the same, but right before their lips lock... Zoya reaches behind Pontius, grabs his sack of gold, and runs! Zoya laughs, "Thanks for the gold, Pontius!" Pontius is fuming at this point, he slowly stands up and runs forward, only to collapse back onto the ground in his drunken stupor! "When I catch my bearings, you'll regret this, Zoya...!!"

The end. Too much?

Spoiler

I don't want it.

I keep seeing the slowpoke everytime NSQuote posts...

 

[Jzero]

Except for the few times that it did of course.

 

[bigace33]

Annnnnd, mission accomplished, got my tree house badge. All is well in steam world. Now just waiting on August 15th to get my upgrade to 2 full years of dedicated steam service. Badges = awesome.

 

[Beast Legacy]

About to bite on Just Cause 2, but are the DLC items worth it?

 

[dragonlife]

Except for the few times that it did of course.

It never went beyond the 40% off price on Steam.

Oh, the flash deal! Right.

 

[ledman]

Damn I'm disappointed The Last Remnant never went on sale

Flash Deal
BELIEVE

 

[dose]

So... Syberia 1 and 2. Yay or nay?

 

[VandalD]

Glad the sale is ending. Spent much more money than I expected to. Got a lot of good games though. Trine 2, Lara Croft GOL, Ys Origin, Batman AC, Fallout NV DLC, Dungeon Siege pack, Fortune Summoners, Thief pack, Saints Row, and Dawn of War 2 Complete pack. Should keep me busy for a while, on top of the games I already had, some of which I haven't even touched. The only thing I might buy between now and the Holiday sale is Orcs Must Die 2, and I pre-ordered Torchlight 2 as soon as it was up.

Damn I'm disappointed The Last Remnant never went on sale

It did as a flash deal, if I remember right.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

I think TLR is $10 Steam redeemable on GMG

SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!

[pock3tmonster]

Okay, so looks like I'm closing with Oddboxx and maybe Call of Cthulu: Dark Corners of the Earth, or Krater. I've only played Cthulu on Xbox quite a long time ago, does anyone know how well it runs on PC? Particularly Windows 7...? :S

For the new page. Can anyone help me out with this one? I'd rather not checkout to find it runs horribly...

Thanks for the gift man.

I can't find you on steam so add me. My ID is DukeBobby. (I sent this as a PM too, in case you didn't see it)

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

I actually tried to get get Lara Croft: Guardian of Light (since it would've only cost me 1 dollar after trading in Commandos 3 and using the 20 percent off coupon) but GMG wouldn't take the card.

 

[Acageron]

Damn I'm disappointed The Last Remnant never went on sale

It's $7.20 on GMG with this code:

COSYO-UDIDN-TGET1

 

[Toki767]

The Last Remnant wasn't a flash deal. It was community vote that lost

 

[RoadHazard]

I'm done, I think. Doesn't seem like anything else I really want is gonna show up (at least not at a price I'm willing to pay right now). So, here's what I ended up getting:

Trine Franchise (Trine 1 & 2)
Monkey Island: Special Edition Bundle (Monkey Island 1 & 2)
Fallout 3 - Game of the Year Edition
Dead Space Pack (Dead Space 1 & 2)
Red Faction Guerilla
Star Wars: KOTOR
STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl
Oblivion - Game of the Year Edition

Total damage: €34,91
Average price per game: €3,17

Pretty happy with that! 11 games and many hours of entertainment for about half of what a new console game typically costs here.

Also, I was gifted Magicka and Beyond Good & Evil by two kind souls, so I've actually got 13 new games!

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Oh wow today is the last day. I had forgotten. I'm shocked. I actually got through a sale without buying anything. I can't believe that not a damn game I wanted hit a good sale price that made me bite. Oh well there is always the Winter sale I guess.

 

[Cth]

Heading out to grab some dinner, back in a few.

 

[DeadFalling]

Except for the few times that it did of course.

WAT. I remember it was up for a community vote but lost out to some bullshit game.

 

[wilflare]

if anyone still needs help with regional purchasing at this juncture,
drop me a PM

(1) Name of Game
(2) Link to Game
(3) Steam Email

would gladly help

in a way, i'm so glad this is finally over.

still looking forward to TLR but oh well

 

[mchal]

It never went beyond the 40% off price on Steam.

Oh, the flash deal! Right.

Was 75% off twice:

[wilflare]

WAT. I remember it was up for a community vote but lost out to some bullshit game.

it lost to Splinter Cell: Conviction...
presently, a daily deal.
-what larks-

 

[blackMamba1187]

Why aren't the Modern Warfare 3 collections on sale? I believe they were half off the week before the sale started, along with the base game. The sale provides a daily and a flash deal on MW3 and no discount on the dlc? Come on, dawg.

 

[Yaboosh]

WAT. I remember it was up for a community vote but lost out to some bullshit game.

Hmm, maybe I am thinking of the GMG deal then and remembering the vote. My bad.

 

[Fatal Futanari]

For the new page. Can anyone help me out with this one? I'd rather not checkout to find it runs horribly...

It ran like crap for me (Win 7 64-bit) and kept freezing in the beginning when

[legacyzero]

To be honest your better off getting COD4 or Black Ops. Or maybe even Black Ops 2 when it comes out.

Already there. COD4 is STILL the best.

 

[DeadFalling]

I'd jump... no. belly-flop all over that but the only money I've got to spend on games is already in my Steam Wallet :/

 

[Jobacca]

Thanks everyone who told me to get Bastion and Stacking. Girlfriend loves Bastion.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

[KirbYuuYuu]

Probably Oath in Felghana, but I'm going to say get both.

 

[AlexBasch]

Since most likely BttF won't be a deal again I'm hoping New Vegas wins the votes so I can buy F3GOTY and be done with this.

 

[Grakl]

Thanks everyone who told me to get Bastion and Stacking. Girlfriend loves Bastion.

Absolutely loved Bastion. Great choice.

 

[Jobacca]

I have no idea what you have linked to. Looks like a dodgy site.

 

[Eusis]

So Ys...never played either of them, thinking of trying one, which is better?

Depends on taste as Ys Oath has more of a Zelda-esque structure (though not fully) whereas Ys Origin is a straight up dungeon crawl, but Ys Oath is cheaper and better to jump in with first, plus there's the slim chance Origin gets a sale tonight or something. So get Oath, see what you think, and get Origin later whether it gets a flash sale or not.

Neither are long games by the way and have become one-of-a-kind, so I don't think it's like asking which strategy game you should be getting when you could spend dozens of hours on just one.

 

[dragonlife]

So Ys...never played either of them, thinking of trying one, which is better?

Get OiF first. But get both if you can.

 

[VandalD]

So Ys...never played either of them, thinking of trying one, which is better?

Origin has more replayability in that you can play as three characters. Oath is maybe better if you're just going to do a single playthrough and has more varied environments. They're both excellent.
