I think Rayman will go cheaper.

I think so too. That's the one deal that's making me wary of the whole flash deal thing.

 

[benjipwns]

Not if you want to play the game now.

You can play these?

 

[Vastag]

Im sad that there is no freebie meta game this time around.

=(

Yes, I love the achievement hunts.

 

[Vinterbird]

In case a Steal sale isn't enough. There's also a sale going on at the Valve Store - http://store.valvesoftware.com/sale.php

 

[Joe Molotov]

Steam sales, crack would be cheaper

What if you could buy crack from Steam?

 

[Yaboosh]

Ubisoft pack looks very tempting, but $50 is slightly too high to be an instant purchase.

I really want Heroes VI and Rayman Origins, which buying today would come to $40, but wouldn't mind having Driver San Francisco, Beyond Good and Evil or Assassin's Creed.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Rocket Knight is 100% off

Too bad you can't add it to cart...

 

[marrec]

A mate on Vent just bought the Terraria 4 pack and is gifting the 3 others away to 3 of us for free so we can play some together. Score.

Thinking about Ys and Grimrock.

Don't think about Grimrock, just buy!

 

[LiK]

Flash Deals are 12 hours instead of 24 hours. not too much of an impulse.

 

[Last Baron]

I hope DeathSpank goes on sale. I don't know if I've ever seen it on discount.

 

[Meatvillain]

None of today's big deals appeal, my wallet just breathed a sigh of relief.

 

[bender]

I think Rayman will go cheaper.

I doubt we will see flash deals become daily deals.

 

[Dog Problems]

Seeing as how Heroes of Might & Magic VI is 50% and it's a daily, I'm thinking the same will happent to Rayman if it appears as a daily. In which case you might as well buy it now.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Ugh so much stuff on sale...not sure if I'm missing any must haves.

So far:

Ys felghana
Rayman origins
Grimlock

 

[goodfella]

Well the shogun 2 deal is shit.

£20 and not even for everything.

 

[krpiper]

Portal Bundle will be my first Steam buy! Yay! Never played Portals. Wait for my new computers grows...

You have started Steam buying at the best/worst time.

substitute best and worst with how much money your wallet has

 

[Exuro]

Flash Deals are 12 hours instead of 24 hours. not too much of an impulse.

So the timers are just off or they're staggering the new deals?

 

[KingKong]

so do those badges do anything?

good thing I could actually finish up the Pillar of Community badge from my work PC, but since the sale is going to be about 12 days and they're asking for 20+ (25 total?) votes on sales, there's going to be 2 votes a day?

I'd bet the flash deals and votes aren't going to be running at night, that would be too weird

 

[Thoraxes]

I would've gotten Rayman for that price, but I just picked up the Vita copy for $20 a few days ago >.>

Oh well.

 

[Toma]

I doubt we will see flash deals become daily deals.

Thats my guess too.

 

[MRORANGE]

Seeing as how Heroes of Might & Magic VI is 50% and it's a daily, I'm thinking the same will happent to Rayman if it appears as a daily. In which case you might as well buy it now.

Ubisoft going the Capcom route.

 

[Mavromatis]

What is the verdict about Mafia 2? Is it a bad PC port or a masterpiece?

 

[Yaboosh]

I would be very surprised if Rayman Origins goes lower after being featured as a flash deal.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Flash Deals are 12 hours instead of 24 hours. not too much of an impulse.

They should really send you alerts over the phone regarding flash deals. I could be sleeping or away for 12 hours and miss out on the deal!

 

[Einbroch]

Wouldn't count on Witcher

Already have it.

 

[Sianos]

1st day buyer.

no regrets.

Do it. Game is amazing.

Yeah, I think I'll do it. Game looks fantastic and I love a good platformer.

 

[Sissel]

Might bite one this. I surprisingly don't own any of those games.

Worth it for CS+ and Lone Survivor alone.

 

[CharmingCharlie]

503's everywhere, I assume the steam summer sale has started

 

[Joe Molotov]

What is the verdict about Mafia 2? Is it a bad PC port or a masterpiece?

It's pretty good, I liked it.

 

[benjipwns]

So the timers are just off or they're staggering the new deals?

Looks like they're staggered, but as long as you check in once per 12 hours you should be okay?

THIS ISN'T A GAME!

Why do I want to buy it?!

 

[krpiper]

I hope DeathSpank goes on sale. I don't know if I've ever seen it on discount.

The baconing is part of the indie deal, which IIRC is the sequel?

 

[The Elite]

I doubt we will see flash deals become daily deals.

I think we will. I think that Gabe is playing with us.

 

[KingKong]

I doubt we will see flash deals become daily deals.

I think we will, I can't imagine a high profile game like Deus Ex not being a daily deal

Also, which Ys game is the good one? the one thats $5 right now? is the other one worth it too?

 

[elkayes]

If I use a vpn client to log into a dutch network, can I legally buy games that are restricted in my country?

 

[MRORANGE]

What is the verdict about Mafia 2? Is it a bad PC port or a masterpiece?

amazing, especially the lighting system alone.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Wouldn't count on Witcher

...Dammit.

 

[Mairu]

Wouldn't count on Witcher

Damn it

 

[Kerub]

What is the verdict about Mafia 2? Is it a bad PC port or a masterpiece?

It's a pretty good port. Buy it!

 

[justjim89]

So... math escapes me at the moment, but if Witcher 2 wins it'll be like $16, right?

 

[A Human Becoming]

Worth it for CS+ and Lone Survivor alone.

I kind of want CS+ on 3DS for the 3D, but fuck it, this version will suffice.

 

[Palette Swap]

Fuck that. I own all the dailies and there's no metagame.

 

[j0hnny_385]

I don't like this Flash Deal & Vote deal thing... I fucking hate camping in front of a computer. :/

 

[Guanoape]

I was hoping for a better deal on Might & Magic 6. I want to play it, but I'd rather get something like The Witcher 2 for that price. If The Witcher 2 wins the community vote that is...

 

[thelatestmodel]

Fuck I want to buy YS and Pixeljunk but...I know I need to wait for the daily deals...this is terrible.

I'd just buy Pixeljunk. Doesn't get much better than 80% off and $2. If it does, you're only out a few cents.

I'll be waiting for Ys for sure.

 

[sazzy]

I've gotten:

CKII Sword of Islam+DLC
SpaceChem+DLC
Clash of Heroes+DLC
Swords&Soldiers+DLC

Not bad for 12 bucks..

 

[LiK]

my mistake, DXHR Flash Deal is 6 hours. guess they're not the same per game.

 

[Clever Pun]

Everyone should pick up Grimrock. I pre-ordered it from the developer and it was worth every penny.

 

[Teknoman]

I dont have it yet, but everyone should buy Ys Origins.

 

[Monroeski]

If I haven't played Saint's Row the Third before would it still be a good idea to just go wild on DLC purchases? I see a lot of stuff about new vehicles and weapons and such and I'm wondering if any of it is overpowered for somebody going through a first runthrough.
