update:

Dead Island fourpack:

- THE NO LIFE KING
- SalsaShark's friend
- YianGaruga
- LatvjuAvs

closed

who can host?

Well crap, I can't believe I missed this group! If anyone else wants to do a Dead Island 4-pack, I'm in. I could host (which I assume just means get paypal'ed, right?), but I won't be back at my computer until tomorrow so if you wanted to play today, you couldn't.

Hmm, I think I'll skip it then..

Personally, I prefer it to Oath, but only by a little. Bosses are better, and while none of the sections are as great as Valestein Castle (then again, how many dungeons are?) the areas in the second half of the game were really good, since the early ones are a bit simple to ease you in I guess.

Damn, I really want to try Dead Island, but I'm not sure if I'm even willing to spend $10 on it. I've heard it's like a zombie survival BLands, but I don't know...

Maybe I'll wait for a $5 Christmas sale on it.
 
I'm not too sure if I should go aheads with Ys. How does the combat to compare to the action sections of Recettear? Does it have any significant improvements over it?

- SalsaShark's friend

so both YianGaruga and LatvjuAvs get in contact with THE NO LIFE KING through pm so you can send him the money.

Got both Freedom Force games for $3.74.

This Steam sale thing is addictive.

WOAH! I didn't even know that the Freedom Force games were up on Steam. I loved the first game, I think I paid like $30 back in 2002 or so? Long time ago. Never did play the expansion. But both for $3.74???

Yeah, I have to buy that. I'll have to play through the first game again though, it's been almost a decade since I last played it.


And yeah, Frozen Synapse looks interesting enough for $4.99, I'll probably just get that too while it's cheap.

And I still have to try out Orcs Must Die, which I just bought. And Portal 2. And I just started playing Defense Grid which is freaking awesome so far, which I paid $4 for. And I need to dig into Binding of Isaac which I got for less than $2.

Plus the other games I've bought in this sale.



Good thing I just took out a home equity loan, lol.



Now I just need to quit real life so I have time to play all of these......o_O

Man I'll be fucking pissed if they put The Witcher 2 as a flash sale while I'm sleeping :mad:

Damn community, it should have won the first voting.

My ludicrous comment was more about the percent the poster was using.

Skyrim reappearing @ 90% off would be pretty fucking crazy

I can wait for the Winter Sale :)

Anyone want to do another Dead Island 4-Pack?

"Hosting" just means one person buys the 4-pack, then gets paypal-ed back right? I can host it, but can't distribute the games until tomorrow or Monday. I'm on my phone :)

That is of course, unless this gets settled in the next 15 or so minutes. I have to stop by home to grab something.

I paid good money for this Dynex!

Gotta say, it's pretty funny watching you answer the same question over and over and over again.

Which is great, actually -- the more Ys we sell, the better.

ME. I'm pretty sure we can get this settled in 15 minutes. :p
 
In the case of Left 4 Dead 2 winning the community vote, I am looking for 3 others to split a 4 pack with. I can host.

It will be $3.75 a person.

Yes, I know this is only $1.25 less than the base game. But that's a $1.25 toward something else.

PM me if interested.

KotOR is 2.50. Does it really matter? ;)

I know, I said that before, several times :p This is my first summer sale and I'm trying to be careful, I'm keeping it in check but then again, it's only the third day.

I'll probably grab it, but the question was more focused on the second part. Also, should I grab L4D2 when it comes on sale. And the first one along it as the franchises come together into it.
