Everybody wins! Community gets more Grimrock to not buy, Tiny and Big developers get an extra $2 from LobLob!

I voted Grimrock.
Damn it Grim won (by 51%) it was an easy win.
Tiny big did not even get second place.
I would imagine the other 2 will show up as a Flash Deal eventually.

ARMA 2 probably won't go more than 25-33% off, I'll predict.
Surprised Grimrock won, as we already had the deal. My budget is almost at its end, but I have successfully managed to get just about every game I really wanted to pick up during the sale. Just a few more to keep my eye out on.

I wouldn't say that yet. If the game moves to the top of the top sellers then maybe word of mouth from day 1 sales convinced others they needed it. If it doesn't crack the top 5 or so, though, then we're simply seeing more evidence that Democracy Doesn't Work (which strikes fear into my heart about Project Greenlight).

wasn't the biggest complaint that it was only 2 hours long?

They've been down for a while. Over six hours.
And that it just reuses a map from the game.

Just woke up. LA Noire? Really? $5 is still too much. I wanted Alan Wake. I blame everyone

I voted for Grimrock. To me it sends a message to devs that 'hey people like these sort of games and want more of them'... because I do. Hopefully it gets a lot more sales because it deserves it.

Grimrock won the vote? And got half the votes?
They have apparently been dead for the last 12 hours. Yay, Ubisoft!

Alan Wake already went on sale.

Alan Wake was just a flash deal...
I was going to buy Anno 2070, but seems I dodged a bullet on that. Have gone for Tropico 4 instead as I have a building / ruling itch to scratch and CivV isn't doing for me. Would be nice if the download was quicker then 100k.
Was also going to buy Frozen Synapse, but it seems I already own it. Was it in a Humble Bundle or something?

Can you give impressions of Tropico 4 as soon as you can please, i really want to buy it before it goes off daily deal. I understand if you can't though.

Yea and of the list it was the best of the games. Its not about letting other games get turns. Want fair, don't put it to a vote. I'm sure the others will be flash games at some point.
Plus troll voting is fun when you aren't going to buy any of them anyways

I was at work during the Alan Wake flash deal and didn't get home in time. I'm hoping for a franchise daily deal now

What, when? I know its been a flash deal but I don't remember it being a daily.
EDIT: Hey you edited your post, that's not allowed or something.

IIRC, for Asylum they changed it to be even worse on the GOTY version. The original AA you can revoke the licenses and keep them effectively forever.

When is Ubisoft going to learn to stop using their own shit? =/

And Gaben said, 'Let there be sales,' and there were sales.
Most of the people who voted for it probably already own it, so don't expect much of a sales bump. They don't mind shitting on two other devs for boosting their dev of choice.

hey guys how much is the Borderlands GOTY (the one with all the dlc) bundle at the US valve store?
Damn it Grim won (by 51%) it was an easy win.
Tiny big did not even get second place.
I'll buy Tiny Big regardless, but that's sad :/
$7.49
Dusk Golem
A 21st Century Rockefeller
The GOTY edition is $7.49. The regular edition is $4.99.
Well its definitely making sure I never buy a title from them again with their shit in it.
And the funny thing is that it says nothing about using it on the From Dust page, nor on Giant Bomb's page is it listing that it uses this shit.

Yeah, perhaps. I do hope your wrong though (and I also hope Tiny & Big and Quantum Conundrum get flash deals).
It does.
I played it with a 360 controller and I can't remember using Xpadder.

So I bought just the Civ IV complete edition since I'm giving away my physical copy, but I find out that it apparently has the Mac version as well. Is there a way I can remove this from my Steam window? My OC-ness does not want anything uninstalled in there. or does this disappear when I install my copy?
