No, there's no percentage off on the page. That's the normal price.

Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition is a wonderful port from Capcom.
Just bare in mind that it is out of date if you're into the competitve scene. We are still on version 1.6 even though the console versions were updated to version 1.7 ~5 months ago. We were told we were getting 1.7 but they accidently gave us 1.6 instead. We were than promised we were getting 1.7 ~3 months ago. We are still waiting. Same out-of-date / incompetence shit applies to Street Fighter X Tekken.
Basically, Capcom Port = Awesome. Capcom Support = Fucking Bullshit.

Oh OK. Had me worried there for a bit. Thanks.
Good to see more folks giving Space Marine a chance. Its a bloody fun time.
I'd also hope that Darkness 2 gets some love out of all this.

Oh, and if anyone needs someone to take a spot in a SFIV:AE 4-pack, PM me. You'll need to show me the ropes on how to do most of it through Paypal, though, since this would be my first time trying it...

Dark Souls is $40 but 40? Gonna buy in a sale. Won't support price discrimination on top of GFWL.

Botanicula is a beautiful point-and-click adventure game. There's not as much exploration as games in the genre typically have but it does have some tough puzzles. Also has a great soundtrack.

I figured out that my steam problems are on their end. Steam does *try* to load the page, but only about 2 images load and the rest is just text. The formatting of the page also isn't loading right, so I can only seem some blue html links where some of the graphics would be. ...Overall, the site is unusable and is only loading partially for me. It won't even load in IE, chrome, or firefox. It just spends the time loading, and if I'm lucky, a fragmented version of the page shows up like under the client. Occasionally, it gives me a Steam error code -118 (network time out) cause it took to long for the page to load.
I haven't seen the site this unusable in a long, long time. I'm running DSL at 6 megs down 1.5 up, and everything else is working fine, so I'm pretty sure the problem is on their end. Luckily, I bought some stuff about 1 a.m. last night, but it sucks to be missing out on everything right now.

Still got a spot in a Street Fighter IV pack, PM me if interested
EDIT It's gone.
EDIT It's gone.
Me too, but the "steam community" voted for Saints Row 3 instead. *shakesfist*
Thanks. Have you played Oil Rush or Universe Sandbox? Those are the other two that seemed the most interesting to me out of the lot.
Not a bad choice at all! I've been playing it for five hours now and it's a really positive surprise.

Worth buying at current price, but there will almost certainly be a daily/flash.

Damn u community!Definitely, I had no problem playing through it with K/M. The performance of the game is really nice as well, had a great time with it.
It's already at 75%
Same here. Namco is delusional.

I've never played Oil Rush but I have played Universe Sandbox a little. Not enough to have a proper opinion of it. I played it just enough to get a ticket from last years Summer sale. It's more of a toy than actual game, though. There's a lot to it, as I recall, so it's something you need to sit down and learn.
I like it a lot. The story is lacking, as the only thing it does is push you into more battles, but the gameplay is extremely fun. It's got some RPG-light elements in the sense that you can customize what units you can play and which special abilities/stat bonuses you can apply, but you can consider the majority of the game a puzzle battle of sorts, or at least that's how it feels to me. You need to strategically place units to break through the opponent's defenses to get to their base and avoid them from attacking yours and while doing so you have to almost puzzle your way into creating attack combos for more damage. Stacking the same type and color units vertically let's you attack and if you do that horizontally you create walls to defend from the enemy, if I recall correctly. It gets more complex with different unit types. It's a bit hard to describe, but there's a demo out that'll help you get an idea of how it works. Notch's current project, Scrolls, actually seems to play a lot like this game, except the tiles on the field are hexagonal.
It also has 360 controller support with on-screen buttons, I believe.

Guess I'm still waiting on Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, Alan Wake, Dragon Age and I REALLY REALLY REALLY want a racing game. Specifically Burnout Paradise but I'll take like a Shift 2 or whatever the good, fairly recent Need for Speed was (Hot Pursuit??? was that the good one?) was. Maybe Bioshock 2, and MAYBE Skyrim if it goes on a daily deal.

The gameplay is really good. And it's already on a daily deal. I think my first playthrough was ~30 hours. And as mentioned above, the story is garbage, but you can skip through it.
Edit - apparently I was wrong about load times on PC.

That's the best way to play it.

Cheers!
I'm assuming the Binding of Isaac DLC is bundled with the game if you purchase the pack as well? No separate install needed?
I did not detect any mouse acceleration fuckery.

*sigh* 2070 is still a bit to expensive so I thought the former one could be nice to start with. Oh well, if they don't want my money...
Load times are fine on PC. Load times on consoles however, are shit, LOL.

Stop wanting everything. I'm at about 100 games and I don't even want much out of the sale. Think Buddha.

Quit life and start playing.
Only $0.74 here. It's good being a sane cheapassgamer.

Welp, waiting for a sale for Dark Souls then... solidarity with my EU bros. Should've been closer to £25 than £30.
Relic is primarily a PC dev are they not? Not surprising its a well done port.
