5 dollars was the cheapest it has ever went (and it's still half as cheap as DMC3:SE at their lowest price :/)

well I decide to finally play some of the stuff I got on sale but when I try to play Anno 2070 I get an error in Uplay saying it can't download the game information? :-/ X-(

I just wanted the story in Brotherhood to end and found it so boring. I loved finding out what happens to both Altiar (spelling?) and Etzio (spelling?). Far better story in Revelations.

All right, going to do a small giveaway as a thank you to Steam GAF for being so awesome.
So here we go!
Giveaway Contest: Create your own Indie Bundle XII
New to the steam sale this year was the concept of steams own Indie Bundles. These were bundles of 5 games priced at 9.99$/. However personally I found them lacklustre, often including games that I already owned or contained one or two interesting games coupled with some not-so-interesting games.(except for the awesome Indie Bundle V!) Thus I was inspired to create this contest, challenging gaf to create a better indie bundle than the ones we've seen on sale so far.
How to enter: Choose 5 games on steam that total up to 10 - 15 $/ and take a screenshot of those 5 games in your cart, with the total cost visible. Please write impressions or reasons for why you think your indie bundle is the best.
Remember to quote the image. For example:
Check this thread for suggestions on good cheap indie games you can use to build your bundle. feel free to post your impressions and reccomendations for the bundle over there, too.
Winner: I will choose one winner based on how convincing they were in selling their indie bundle as the best.
Prize: The winner can choose one game under 5 on steam. (Wish I could give more, trying to stay on budget.)
You don't need to quote this post, just mention Indie Bundle XII in your post.

It was a year or two ago as a daily deal, but only for a few hours. capcom noticied this and changed it to $10.

Yeah i remember that. That was so dumb how they bumped up the price. I regret it too, since it hasn't been 5 bucks since. Though i'm not too bummed out since i have the ps3 version already.
YOU'RE WINNER

still games I want, we could work something out. You just need the steam code right?
ohh wow, so it sounds like they don't have any intentions of going to 5 bucks agian?

Or wanting money by actually taking part of a sale.
I've been playing so much of ArmA 2 because of DayZ that I'm really interested in Operation Flashpoint but I really can't afford $11.24 (I know how sad that is). What are the chances it drops again in the near future? I'd rather not wait until Winter for another stab at it.

Indie Bundle XII contest entry:
I'll go with this:
It's five games that haven't been in any indie bundle (Humble Bundle, Indie Royale, Indie Gala, or Steam) yet, so right there it's a fantastic bundle. Plus every single game is quality, including the criminally overlooked and under-received The Adventures of Shuggy. On top of that, there's something for everyone, with one puzzle-platformers reminiscent of Braid and PB Winterbottom (Adventures of Shuggy) and another clearly inspired by Yoshi's Island (Offspring Fling), an RPG/rhythm game (Sequence), a zombie twinstick shooter (Nation Red), and an RPG/Arkanoid game (Wizorb). Oh, and GAF's very own feep is represented in the bundle. How could it possibly get any better?
And as a bonus, none of these are dailies today or have even been featured in any way during the sale at all. This collection of games truly captures the spirit of indie bundles.
So, I'm guessing all games are valid as long as they weren't included in any bundle I through XI, right? Or can there be repeats from those?

Damn! I got the following message:
"There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance."
How can I fix this? I'm trying to buy the last games I'm interested and Steam doesn't want my money! =(
Thanks in advance!

Its tomorrow but thanks a bunch!
What the fuck are you talking about.
The Borgias downfall in epic Rome>>>>>>>>>>>>some shitty story about instanbul's little prince.
The only good thing about Revelations' story is the Ezio and Sofia parts, the rest range from meh to bad (at least they made altair more likable than in his own shitty game)

My new attempt to break the code:
4th set of numbers: 01100100
Where blue is 0 and white is 1. So, we have ._ _ (for the blue). If I repeat this for the other 16 sets of numbers: _ ._ _ _. .. .._ ._ ... _. _. _. .. ..._ ._ _. .._ And that's TATNIUASNNNIVANU (?). If I use the white cells instead: TUTWMSDRAMNNSNIS.
Final status: The code is unbreakable ;_;

Hidden gems that weren't on daily deal are preferred, but I have no problem with people reusing a game or two from previous bundles.

A little mix of everything. A schmup, hard as nails platformer, an easier platformer with a clever gameplay mechanic (descend/escape), a horror game, and an action RPG with great production values and soundtrack. All for under the price of Minecraft.

I'd go with Bioshock 2, though SC:C is definitely not a bad game.
Haha why?
I was worried about Bioshock 2 drm but saw there was no machine limit.
Edit: haha thanks everyone. Think I'll get B2 and Psychonauts to end the sale. Renegade ops would have been nice too

GAT DAMN right I will!!
It really isn't
I just hate Ubisoft for taking out Spy vs Mercenary multiplayer. Plus the single player (even thought it wasn't bad) just wasn't real Splinter Cell IMO.
how... how do you have a picture of that? also 2010? someone else in the thread said that was a mistake and capcom made it 10 bucks after a few hours. should i not be expecting it to got 5 bucks again?

Also, it seems like SSFIV:AE won't be marked down again. And since I doubt LucasArts Adventures won't go less than 40% now, I just went ahead and bought it.
