Support NeoGAF

[Jive Turkey]

Was going to buy Bastion, but I tried the demo and it's really, really hard to control with the keyboard and mouse. So I just gifted a copy to a friend of mine who had it on his wishlist instead. Feels good man.

Yeah I couldn't play it without a controller.

 

[stevematic]

Already have GTA IV so will go with JC2.

 

[Yoshichan]

Holy shit I love the activity in this thread. I'm new to the "upgraded" version of Steam. I'm LttP because I've had this hate towards Steam because of how shitty it was a loooooong time ago.

So now I'm checking it out again and heavens, so many awesome deals. Just bought Bastion, fuck yeaaaaaah

 

[HiiiLife]

Which to vote for..

 

[Chinner]

fukking vote just cause 2 or i will slap you

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Why exactly should I play OiF first? I don't even know if I'm going to like Ys so I started with Origin because the trailer looked better (I know, I know... don't kill me!).

Oath is a little bit better paced, and eases you into the mechanics a bit better. It's also a longer game, if you don't plan on playing through Origin with multiple characters. Though it's not an especially long game, itself (like 8-10 hours your first time.)

 

[mchal]

Actually yes - Tales of Monkey Island + Monkey Island 1/2 (not bundle) are hidden flash sale

 

[frozzted]

A one week "flash" sale for Gothic and Arcania bundle. Cool!

 

[mr. grape]

I'll vote JC2 to get the DLC. I wouldn't buy GTA IV alone, better wait for a GTA Complete Pack sale.

The thing is, if GTAIV gets voted through.. the complete pack will probably be 75% off too. That's how a lot of these deals work.

 

[Dibbz]

Oh man GTA 4 is in the community choice with Just Cause 2 and Dead Space 2 all 75%.

I have a felling that JC2 is going to win though.

 

[JonCha]

Vote Dead Space 2 people.

 

[TheBear]

If you have a pc capable of running JC2 (which should be everyone here) you are fucking crazy not to buy it.

 

[Wilsongt]

And Bastion get.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

i think i tripled my friendlist

 

[The One Who Knocks]

Everybody should vote for Just Cause 2, the game is mad fun and the the multiplayer mod for it just came out today

http://jc-mp.com

Exactly, please everybody, vote for Just Cause 2! The GTA IV port isn't particularly optimised (or at least it doesn't seem like it to me). The multiplayer mod alone makes it worth the price but I have no doubt that Grand Theft Auto will win unfortunately.

 

[Sianos]

The masses will vote GTA, but Just Cause 2 is a much better game.

Worst comes to worst it'll be a flash or daily deal like all the other community votes.

Why exactly should I play OiF first? I don't even know if I'm going to like Ys so I started with Origin because the trailer looked better (I know, I know... don't kill me!).

Well, you already bought Origin, so my "It's cheaper" angle won't work. That said, I enjoyed OiF more than I enjoyed Origin the first time through, but that's probably because I went with Hugo (ranged character) instead of Yunica (female version of Adol/sword dude in other Ys games). You also unlock a third character once you beat the game with one character. With OiF you only have the one character, but it has better music and the dungeons were better. However, saying "better" doesn't mean anything in Origin is bad.

Both are good in different ways, and everyone should get both eventually.

 

[Enco]

The thing is, if GTAIV gets voted through.. the complete pack will probably be 75% off too. That's how a lot of these deals work.

And that's why I voted for GTA.

JC2 is absolutely amazing and one of my top games of all time but I have it and GTA SA would be nice.

 

[LobLob]

I see the poster above says Bastion is hard to play with keyboard and mouse. Is this true of others? I rather play my games on pc with KB/Mouse unless it is a sports/flight games.

 

[Franklinator]

Voted Just Cause just cause

If we're all sharing profiles, then here's mine

 

[HiiiLife]

Voted for just cause 2. Have high hopes to the people who want the game lol.

 

[Thermite]

WHY WON'T YOU ACCEPT MY VOTE, STEAM?

 

[TheBear]

Monkey Island bundle costs more than buying seperately.

 

[iNvid02]

just cause 2 - vote for it

steam still isnt registering my vote, wtf

 

[Card Boy]

Vote Dead Space 2 people.

Don't support EA please. This needs to be drummed into peoples heads.

 

[Jak140]

I just read that Telltale has already announced that there will be a second season of the Walking Dead game. If that's the case I think I'll just wait and get them all together for cheaper in a year or two.

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

Voted for GTA. Would be nice to get the whole pack for cheap

 

[TheChits]

Please vote Just Cause 2. That multiplayer looks like a blast

 

[Deliverance]

Don't worry about the community votes, all those games are pretty big and they'll very likely appear on the daily (or flash) deals.

 

[Dibbz]

Vote Dead Space 2 people.

Dead Space 2 is constantly on sale man. GTA 4 is where it's at.

 

[Jzero]

I see the poster above says Bastion is hard to play with keyboard and mouse. Is this true of others? I rather play my games on pc with KB/Mouse unless it is a sports/flight games.

I've had no problems with keyboard and mouse but i've never tried with gamepad.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I didn't find it to be hard. I haven't tried using a 360 controller though, so maybe it is superior.

 

[nubbe]

Just Cause 2 is the better game.. but I already own all 3 flash games :|

 

[Hakkuei]

Thinking about buying Warband just cause of Napoleonic Wars. Do a lot of people still play it?

Right now there is two NW 200 player servers almost full, so, yep!

 

[Spierek]

Just Cause 2 gets my vote. I'll be thoroughly disappointed if it doesn't win, that's like the only game I really want to get out of this sale (because of JC2MP).

 

[alphaNoid]

Finally bought Bastion how is this with kb&m? Should I just get a 360 wired controller or what?

 

[legacyzero]

Voted for JC2 considering Multiplayer is coming.

and HOLY SHIT, I'm already not regretting buying Walking Dead.

 

[Apdiddy]

Saw this for Monkey Island: Special Edition page. I'm hoping it'll get fixed soon.


Two games at $2.75 each and you buy them for $8.99?

EDIT: Oh okay, it got fixed.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Damn Valve, why can't these transitions go smoothly. I know there are probably a lot of people hammering your servers and it isn't that much to complain about in a great sale. But still, if you implent a voting system, make sure it works... And the flash sales are acting funny also.

 

[The One Who Knocks]

Wait, is anybody getting their vote through? I know many users on the previous page are getting the voting problem too but I'm wondering if it's universal.

 

[HiiiLife]

Don't support EA please. This needs to be drummed into peoples heads.

But I like Mirrors Edge

 

[Tukker]

Voted for JC2 considering Multiplayer is coming.

and HOLY SHIT, I'm already not regretting buying Walking Dead.

It only gets better

 

[Chinner]

Wait, is anybody getting their vote through? I know many users on the previous page are getting the voting problem too but I'm wondering if it's universal.

vote a few times and forget about it. it goes through eventually.

 

[Sianos]

Just Cause 2 is usually a daily and like all the other community choices will at the very least get a flash deal.

 

[filipe]

I own Just Cause 2 and it still got my vote. That game is just too much fun.

And Bastion at $3.74? Fuck it, bought.

 

[kitzkozan]

Tales of monkey island? flash... Edit: nope - but still 75% off

Monkey island 1 & 2 are also 75% off, but separately. The bundle is now 75% off, so time to buy this shit.

 

[toddhunter]

All 3 are 100% certain to be daily deals where you will get the DLC as well.

So just vote for whatever the hell you want.

 

[Glorified G]

Has anyone played Vessel. Is it good for $3.74?

 

[Hanzou]

Flash sale just changed from Arcania/Gothic Bundle to Monkey Island?

 

[EatinOlives]

Flash sale just changed from Arcania/Gothic Bundle to Monkey Island?

I just noticed this too. WTF?
