So I'm currently being screwed by Steam. Bought the Anno 2070 Collection and it's stuck in limbo. Can't launch it because my purchase is still being processed. It's in my library but no money removed from Paypal or e-mail confirmation. Can't purchase any more games with any payment method because of errors. Hope this resolves itself but I sent a support (lol) message off just in case.

 

[Mangotron]

So, which LC/Tomb Raider games are good?

Guardian of Light is great, especially if you have someone to co-op with. It's not like the other 3 games though. Anniversary is probably the hardest of the other 3 since it's a remake of the PS1/PC game. Legend is really easy, and Underworld is the prettiest.

Honestly all 4 are pretty great if you like puzzle/action games.

 

[Druz]

Ghost Recon 2 was the communities choices? I hope all of those morons play that game for five minutes.

 

[RionaaM]

Honestly, at €2.34 for the game, soundtrack and DLC or €1.24 for just the game you might as well and just go ahead and chance it I reckon. Even if you don't enjoy it too much it's not a huge amount that is lost either way.

You're right, $1.98 is actually cheaper than a coffee at a local Starbucks, so I'll bite on it.

...and done!

 

[drizzle]

Any other tomb raider games worth buying? I never liked the original tank control, but I like the legacy of kain type control. Which of the tomb raider games would I like?

All of them are pretty awesome. I bought them all last years for pretty much the same price I think.

 

[irishcow]

So this makes three, anyone else want in?

I would be in on a SSF 4 pack unless someone has asked before me.

 

[j0hnny_385]

The Binding of Isaac Collection
From Dust
...
are mine.

P.S. my backlog is locked in the basement, chained to a wall, crying in agony...

 

[Sora_N]

Total damage done so far:
Max Payne Bundle 3.74
Portal 2 4.99
= 8.73

I'm just waiting to see if Ys Oath and Origin will drop more and I'm done!

 

[DTKT]

So, there is no big ol' metagame? No tickets? Coals?

Nothing?

 

[.nimrod]

alright, catabarez, Alex and Def Jukie, i sent you guys PMs, let's get a steam chat going

 

[JaseC]

Dungeons of Dredmor DLC bought
Lara Croft: GoL DLC bought
SpaceChem DLC bought

Curse you, Gaben.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Don't know if it's been posted but Max Payne 1+2 = $3.74, and each game alone is $2.49. It says daily deal also.

I guess that's what I'm grabbing today, been meaning to try these games.

Say what? Nice! Cheers for telling this, I've been waiting a while to buy it.

 

[TheFightingFish]

Ohh, so it's a Tomb Raider series sale. That changes things as I already have Guardians of Light, but none of the others.

I know that Anniversary is the one that I usually see recommended, but I think that I played a bit of that on 360 already, so I might go with Underworld instead. That one is pretty well received as well, right?

 

[HiiiLife]

The servers are usually hit with heavy traffic during these sales correct? So would it be wise to just buy the game then install it later? Maybe early mornings? Or even after the sales? Cause right now I see Shogun 2 and TF2 occupying a lot of my time.

 

[Emitan]

Can't get Anno 2070 to remote install. I wanted it to be there when I got home ;~;

 

[jj984jj]

I really want Anno but I will never buy it with Tages, I hope it ends up on GOG someday if they won't remove it.

 

[chiablo]

Is Binding of Isaac's save file still a flash cookie or did they fix that?

I lost all of my save data when I reinstalled windows (despite keeping my My Documents and Steam folder). So no, it's still a cookie.

 

[Levyne]

Just got Guardians of Light due to the positive impressions here.

1 sale game, woo

 

[Glass Rebel]

I am in utter disbelief. SS4AE is a GFWL game and I didn't read one person dog it or the game! Wow GAF I am proud!

7.50€ is the price point for a AAA game where I begrudingly accept GFWL so I bought SS4AE. Still don't like the fact that it uses it.

 

[zbarron]

Sorry if it has already been asked but at 116 pages the thread is somewhat impenetrable. Is there anything in the registry for an Ys pack with both Oath and Origin? I want to pick up Oath for 5 and don't mind if it goes a few dollars cheaper.

 

[sazzy]

Indie Pack 2.

Indie Pack 2.

Indie Pack 2.

BUY IT.

(and if you ask why you're doing it wrong)

 

[Lemming]

I'm up for hosting a SSF4 AE 4-pack, it's 5.62eur each (that's ~$6.90 or ~4.45GBP)

I still need 3 other people

Pack closed? I'd like in, but won't get back home until a couple of hours.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Damnit Ubisoft. Why couldn't you go -75% on Anno. Guess I'll pick it up later then.

 

[shintoki]

From Dust get rid of the crappy Ubisoft DRM? Or does it still have it?

 

[Enco]

I lost all of my save data when I reinstalled windows (despite keeping my My Documents and Steam folder). So no, it's still a cookie.

What the fuck is this shit? Cookie save?

Nothing interesting in the dailies. Hopefully the next vote and flash deals are good.

 

[kami_sama]

Today I got GRAW 2, and the two Max Payne.

 

[BioHazard]

Anyone still have any spots open in any SSIVAE packs?

 

[KingKong]

are the Tomb Raider GOL challenge packs worth buying?

I'm not sure if thats some kind of multiplayer only thing or extra content, are challenge packs full levels or just like score attack arenas?

 

[KarmaCow]

I lost all of my save data when I reinstalled windows (despite keeping my My Documents and Steam folder). So no, it's still a cookie.

That's weird, I just copied the steam folder with the text file that's supposed to be the save and it worked just fine for me.

 

[Valnen]

All of them are pretty awesome. I bought them all last years for pretty much the same price I think.

So do you think someone who was a huge fan of the PS1 game would appreciate getting anniversary as a gift?

 

[Levyne]

I also want to know this. Also the Character DLC pack

Listen to this man

 

[Joe Molotov]

I bought Anno 2070 Collection for $25, even though I said I'd hold out for $15. /weak

 

[DarkLegion]

Picked up Portal 2 and considering The Binding of Isaac.. but I probably will get it though, how can you go wrong at that price?

 

[throwawayname]

It's fine

Then I'm buying it.
How is the online community compared to the console versions? (Talking about Super Street Fighter 4 AE)

 

[Weenerz]

What's in Indie 2?

 

[Falxix]

Ha! So glad I waited on Max Payne 2. Wrath of the Lamb too. What a fine day this is turning out to be.

 

[Decado]

Hmmm...thinking The Binding of Isiac, Space Marines and Worms Reloaded.

Is Worms Reloaded worth it if you have Armageddon on XBLA? Has it received great mods or patches for single player or local co-op?

 

[1-D_FTW]

are the Tomb Raider GOL challenge packs worth buying?

I'm not sure if thats some kind of multiplayer only thing or extra content, are challenge packs full levels or just like score attack arenas?

I personally feel they're a waste of money. After playing the full game, I had no desire to play the challenge maps I bought. Which is not a slam at all. The game is awesome. The DLC, not so much.

And yeah, from what I could see, they're more score attack. Not adventure levels like the full game.

Any other tomb raider games worth buying? I never liked the original tank control, but I like the legacy of kain type control. Which of the tomb raider games would I like?

None of them have tank controls anymore.

 

[The_Monk]

Fellow GAFfers I know you are all busy creating a great Backlog but don't forget to VOTE for you MS Paint Winner here:

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=482290

I'm counting the Votes, only 20 Minutes to go. Thanks.

 

[OniShiro]

I'll get the indie bundle 2. Don't have any of them and they look interesting.

 

[Rickenslacker]

What's in Indie 2?

Botanicula, E.Y.E., Oil Rush, Splice and Universe Sandbox

 

[Shambles]

Looks like worms went up on the flash sales. I've always loved worms but don't like how they cut up the game into so many DLC pieces. I'd normally be tempted to just buy a 4 pack so i can give it to people to play with me but the 4pack doesn't include any DLC. On the fence.

 

[Sianos]

Hm, Max Payne 1 and 2 for $3.75? I'm tempted. Looks like I do have a deal to think about.

I'll wait until tomorrow to see what its deals and flashes are before I bite.

 

[shintoki]

I bought Anno 2070 Collection for $25, even though I said I'd hold out for $15. /weak

It really does look like a fantastic game(I own 1404), but I just can't get over

"Solidshield Tages SAS
3 machine activation limit"

 

[Boss Doggie]

From Dust is still shitty I take it?

 

[Fare Godmace]

According to the Steam description for Max Payne 1, it says that it won't work on Windows 7. Is there a workaround for this?

I know I should use Google, but I don't have too much bandwidth usage left

 

[Harbinger of War]

That's weird, I just copied the steam folder with the text file that's supposed to be the save and it worked just fine for me.

Yeah, I believe it was fixed shortly after the game was released. Now it's either the "myFile" or "serial" text files in your Binding of Isaac Steam folder that you want to hold on to. I've used CCleaner numerous times to clear flash cookies and it's never once erased my data.

 

[Merguson]

Max Payne 1/2 bundle for 75% off too. Sold!

If you didn't post that I would have completed missed that... and it's part of the daily deal.. how am I suppose to know that from steam?

See a sequel on the daily deal, check the previous iterations to see if it's on sale? I mean.. I clicked on the Lara Croft flash deals and it gave me a list of Lara Croft games on sale..

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Sigh, average daily deals once again. ):
