Hmmm... Cave Story's definitely worth getting, though I think the game's kinda overrated. It's quite a good game, but it's not as good as some people have hyped it up to be. And I'm a huge Metroidvania fan.

Agreed.

Well i couldn't even get rid of Dead Island on Steamgifts for some reason. If anyone wants it reply here and i'll send you a PM in an hour or so (i'm just nipping out).

It won't activate on Steam unless you're from the US or use a VPN.

I do I do!

I'm probably too late but I'll take it!

 

[Vlodril]

Devs made a post on the Steam forums saying that they thought it was too soon. Otherwise that's one of the games I'd really like to buy right now.

that means no sale? Well ill wait for winter then. disagree with the dev btw. Damnit.

 

[Sissel]

My basket says right now:
Fallout 3: GOTY
Hydrophobia
PixelJunk Eden
Red Faction: Guerrilla

Yay or nay?

I've only heard really negative things about Hydrophobia

 

[Panda Rin]

I've never played a Total War game. Is it hard to get into, specifically Shogun 2? I've been eyeing to get one of the games for some time now.

 

[Speevy]

How is Cave Story? I have no idea what its about.

It's possibly the most celebrated "indie" ever released.

Has an old school flavor with underground exploration gameplay, challenging enemies.

 

[goober]

So which DLC for Shogun 2 is worth the money? Already have Rise of the Samurai, plan on getting Fall of the Samurai when it's a lot cheaper.

 

[ShaneB]

I didn't really enjoy BG&E as much as I was expecting when I played the XBLA release. Mirror's Edge is one of my favourite games of this gen, so that got my vote. Not sure I'll double dip on it, but it definitely deserves to be played more by everyone who hasn't yet!

 

[davidsaurus]

it was actually only 40% off and the fact on the store pages it said "deal lasts until July 23rd" should have clued you in that it wasn't part of the daily

this is why you always wait until the last day to buy anything that isn't further discounted



the DLC not the game itself

It was indeed 40% though I have a funny feeling that it said was a Daily deal price.

 

[kafiend]

Did anyone ever play the Grotesque Tactics games? I would love a FF Tactics style SRPG on STEAM.

It's not even a pimple on the arse of FF Tactics.

Now I've got that out of my system I can say I kinda like it. Its peurille, full of generic humor that thinks its being ironic when its just being generic. However, it ticks all the right buttons for me and ever since they fixed the fucking awful camera panning mostly it's a little easier to recommend. Imagine me as an actual seal giving it my Seal of Recommendation.

Do want

 

[Vastag]

The shogun DLC was only discounted a 40% when it was a daily and now that is a flash deal it has a 75%? I don't know how steam sales work anymore.

 

[Xamdou]

it won Community Vote. was $3.79 iirc

Aw I missed it... Does anyone have any extra copies of it? I can gift a game of equal value for it.

 

[Gintoki]

I just checked Dear Esther and now its %50 off ($4.99). It didn't have any discounts before.

Fantastic game

I wanna take a stab at something else tonight. The Walking Dead would be better served by a single long play session right?

I wanna take a look at it, but I'm thinking maybe I should leave it for when I can dedicate enough time.

 

[davidsaurus]

Probably all of it bar the Dragon War Pack. I enjoy the option to play the other 2 clans, the Sengoku units are quite cool and make each clan a little more unique and the Blood pack is sort of awesome.

I've never played a Total War game. Is it hard to get into, specifically Shogun 2? I've been eyeing to get one of the games for some time now.

They aren't too hard to get into. It can be a little daunting and first but you'll soon pick it up in no time and get 1-more-turn-itus just like Civilization gives you.

Fixed the list for you. Hydrophobia is a waste. You'll regret it if you buy it.

If you guys don't vote for Mirror's Edge I'll stab you in your sleep.

Everyone play RFG multi. I want people to play with.

2 of 5 eps are out now, you could get through what's there pretty fast.

How is Cave Story? I have no idea what its about.

A platforming 2-D shooter indie game about a boy and girl who go out to save their land.

It's quite fun enough to justify the 2.50 sale.

 

[Kelegacy]

I need a Mass Effect bundle and the Geneforge collection to hit a higher sale (it might not which is fine) and some of my most wanted will be over. Sure there is a ton of other stuff I want too though.

Hoping for bad deals today! I am running out of credit!

 

[1-D_FTW]

I've only heard really negative things about Hydrophobia

Yeah. With so many games on sale, it could be spent on a more worthy title.

[Carlisle]

F3 GOTY for $5 is a steal. I haven't bought any games yet, but I might get New Vegas UE for that price.

Still haven't finished The Witcher, so I'm not sure if it's the best decision.

Yeah, I'm pretty pissed at myself. I have FO3 + 3 DLCs on 360, and the last two DLCs came on sale for $5 each so I got them. But now the whole GotY is on PC for half what I spent on the DLC.

I want to get the PC one anyway since it's, well, PC and only $5... but I know I'll only hate myself more if I do.

Man, these Steam sales really breed a lot of introspection and self evaluation.

 

[Megasoum]

Everybody needs to vote for Lara Croft. Amazing coop game!

Spoiler

I know I'm biased cause I worked on it but it's still amazing lol

 

[scorpscarx]

Take out Hydrophobia and the Call of Juarez and the list is solid.

 

[Danneee]

Any american that would want to gift me Shogun 2??

 

[Bricky]

Mirror's edge; yes please! I've wanted to replay that game for quite a long time now, so 75% off would be an instabuy. I loved the gameplay an the graphics.

BG&E is a good choice to, because the game is awesome and if lotsa people buy it the sequel will come sooner (I hope).

Wtf, it's a shooter? I thought it was ARPG-ish. That's the impression I got from the cover art.

Delete Hydrophobia. It's not even worth it for $1.24!

If you don't have Nimbus, I'd substitute that for Hydro in a heart beat.

Call of Juarez, Hydrophobia

 

[Borgnine]

GOD FINALLY SOMETHING. Guerrilla and New Vegas. New Vegas wasn't even on my list, it was nice to have that feeling again. That feeling of being taken advantage of.

Say what lol. Rest assured. I already picked it up.

 

[PaulLFC]

Gah, people saying Fall of the Samurai was 75% off got my hopes up, it's only 50%

Damn it SEGA.

 

[Megasoum]

I worked QA on it for a couple of months. Doing 2-3 playthroughs minimum per day 5 days a week hehe.

Is it really worth it considering they're are free versions available elsewhere?

Call of Juarez, Hydrophobia

Also Alpha Prime. Go get some French Fries.

 

[Ledsen]

Im seeing ti for 75% (1,74) euros in europe for Fall of the samurai.

I dont know if i really needed. Does it make the game much better?

That's rise, not fall. Fall is the expansion.

 

[scorpscarx]

You are lucky man, some of us in here (me) have been on call on pretty much every flash sale.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Apparently only the DLC is 75% off, not the actual game.

 

[KingKong]

Alpha Prime rules

 

[Sora_N]

Might pick up Total War Shogun 2, how is it? Also eyeing the DLC (not the expansions), are any of those worth picking up or should I just get the game itself and play that first?
