Never ask if a game is worth buying in a Steam thread. GAF will always say yes. Most people here are paying 5 bucks a pop for a dopamine rush, not to actually play the game.
 
We have 1 flash deal and 1 community choice deal ending in 55 minutes as well as the poll closing for community choice in about 20 minutes and they still haven't fixed the flash deals. This is gonna get messy.

Am I the only one who's not seeing the new flash deals? Rayman says it has 10 days left or something for me.

I still see them as well, IT guy at Valve fell asleep.


EDIT: Holy Fuck, another Flash deal as well in 50 minutes. I am never going to sleep.
 
Gonna get Crusader Kings II to play the Game of Thrones mod, is the collection for 12.49 worth it or should I just get the game by itself? I really just want to mess with the GoT mod

I haven't actually played it, but from what I've gathered here in the thread is that the only really worthwhile DLC is Sword of Islam. If you only want to play the GoT mod the base game is enough.

I have about £50 to spend, give or take, and I'm hoping the following end up as Daily and/or Flash Deals:

- The Walking Dead
- Quantum Conundrum*
- Civ V: Gods and Kings*
- Max Payne 3
- Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning*
- Street Fighter X Tekken*
- All the Assassin's Creed games
- GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City
- Binary Domain
<B>- Spec Ops: The Line*</B>
- E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy

*Not holding out hope for these.

These are the ones I'm keeping an eye on, but I'll see what else catches my interest too. Very tempted to spring £9.99 on Rayman: Origins. Been on the fence about picking that up for a while now.

Spec Ops is in the 2k collection with Darkness 2 and Civ 5 for only 50$. it's a steal

Cave Story+ is one of the best games on Steam. Just started Lone Survivor myself.

Make sure the download server in your settings is right. The other day, mine had defaulted to somewhere overseas when I live in Florida o_O

I just bought a game called Flora's Fruit Farm. It's like, about fruit or something.

I've got it bad. :(
 
I'm tempted by darksiders...

Do you like 3D Zelda games at all? Yes of course you do. Buy it.

Eeeesh. That's what I get for Googling "How to speed up downloads" people were saying to change your server to Poland since there is less traffic. Lol. Changing it right back to Denver server.

I have The "Sega Genesis & Mega Drive Classics" that I bought a long time ago. It's one launcher with 40 or so games inside.

If I buy a single Mega Drive game, does it get added to the launcher or is it a separate download?

Is the Valve Store sales unique to the Summer Sale? Want the Engineer cup at $10, but shipping's gonna kill it.

Ok I'm sold on the indie bundle.



Some of you might be interested in
Space Rangers 2
Played this game a couple years ago, I wouldn't say any of it was that polished but it was amazing how many game modes they put into a single game. Every planet you land on is choose your own adventure, or maybe an RTS or turn based space combat. On top of a pretty solid arcade space adventure trading game.
 
I've been waiting for both Darksiders and Might & Magic Clash of Heroes.

Gaben gives them in the beginning of the sale.

I feel empty.




Go go go Cities in Motion DLC sale!

Everyone who likes old school shooters should buy Hard Reset.

Plan: Don't spend more than 30 Euro

Progression: Bought Saints Row 3 (7,50) and Warlock Master of the Arcane with DLC (8,74) = 16,xx Euro

Comment: Damn you Gaben!

For people who want to go to sleep.


This chart is completely wrong. Some of the sales are 12 hours, some are 6, some are 10-ish. Rayman and Warlock both ended at 1, but the two games that replaced them are ending at different times even though they started at the same time.

There is no uniform pattern.
