It's a pretty good platformer overall and there a lots of levels and collectibles.
Plus there's co-op and multiplayer if you're into that. It's really cheap right now too so if you're interested, now is the time to buy it.

Planetary Annihilation on sale! People that have played it, is it worth to get in the early access now? If I buy it in its current state, will I have the complete game when it's finished?
How is the game? It's being made by Total Annihilation and SupCom veterans, I'm a big fan of SupCom, even played the shitty 360 port.

I have to admit I don't really like what this particular metagame has done for the atmosphere of the sale thread. Up until now I've always looked forward to the sale threads - they've been a nice mix of people talking about the current deals and what they're playing now and the occasional bit of off-topic chatter, with a really pleasant, positive vibe. With this sale, though, half the posts seem to be, "Goooo team __________!" (Or "Team X rules, Team Y sucks!", or "It's rigged!") Kind of a bummer, to be honest.

Sleeping Dogs is not about the gun play (you rarely have a gun to use). The combat is so good.

Don't get confused, it is still an open world game. But it has a lot of charm and the city really feels different than the typical GTA cities. Also, gameplaywise you won't be doing much shooting (there is some but far far less than in GTA). Instead you are doing a lot of hand to hand melee fighting. Similar to the Batman games, I'd say. Pretty well done overall. And the most important part for me was that I actually cared for the characters. I never do when playing GTA or another open world game. I was never interested in the stories (Assassin's Creed, GTA, Saint's Row... I tried my share). However, as I said, I liked the story of Sleeping Dogs and cared the its characters. Can't really say why. So for this price, I'd say go and see for yourself. Can't do much wrong.
Just pick it up. That's what I'm going to do... doubt they'll make a complete pack.

Sure!
I went in blindly without even knowing what Fables was about and I was immediately immersed. Telltale does a fantastic job in introducing you to the universe of the game
going to make some dinner but I leave you with this
lol i fucked up the megagiver option >_> oh well the more the merrier I guess :/
i hope i can win this time

As someone who disliked GTA 4 and 5, I'd say Sleeping Dogs is one of the best open-world games last gen, and geniunely fun.
As someone who liked Walking Dead Season 1, will I like Wolf Among Us?

I did the same thing. I find myself liking Fables much more than Walking Dead and I really liked TWD.

It won't since that's the group I voted for. You're welcome.
Doubt you'll see that... the GOTY edition already contains every major piece of DLC. If you're in a rush to play it, now's the good time, the price is great.
Metroidvania
People called Romanes they go the house?
This one's probably a longshot, but I hope the Half-minute hero, second coming gets a bigger discount as well.

Won every vote so far, in my defense I've voted for the bundle that had the most games I didn't own.

No purple, purple please we can work this out. You, us greens, we can work together, see, no need to take second place, plz
I've heard this, but I'm not wondering if I can go in blindly and enjoy it. I'm wondering how much more I'd enjoy it if I read the comics first.
And thanks for the Borderlands 2 questions, guess I'll pick it up.

IIRC, The game takes place before the comics series.

Yeah, I've been sticking to Toma's Sale thread, you can actually have a discussion about games there. Pages and pages of team color crap is just boring, not what I was hoping for in the main Sales thread
Idk, maybe next year, a thread for the metagame stuff and a thread for game discussion?
I know it's charity and all, but part of me thinks you could get all of those games for under $25.

Yea, very weak bundle.
No problem, have fun!
I'm pretty sure blue is destined to lose em all. Not even reddit can save you.

How do I set up buy order again? Current situation is infuriating for manual buying.
edit: oh I see it's only for HL2?

Yup, exactly what I thought aswell
That was a pretty cool surprise to me since I'm a speedrunner on SDA myself. That said, the bundle is not that great.
Great idea to offer all these games at such a high price point while the Steam sale is running...
What a weak bundle..
