So, I heard some of you were unsure weither to buy The Last Remnant or not. Maybe you don't have to.

Ooh nice giveaway, the last remnant is one of my favourite RPGs of last generation. I still can't believe I got it from GMG for 2,50€ a few years ago.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Is there one of those hidden gem posts/threads/links for this particular sale?

check again near the end. there are still ...like 13 days left of deals.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

You can buy a token on the market to change your colour. They're a bit pricey at the moment, though.

I don't like this.

 

[Sub Zero]

Is trading working for anyone? Been trying to get Dead Rising 3 from a trader for over an hour to no avail...

 

[ZoddGutts]

Only deal they'll be for Divinity: Original Sin for this steam sale. Best to get it now or wait till Fall Steam sales.

 

[Levyne]

Last Remnant is definitely worth a few bucks unless you highly prioritize story. Even then, it's not that bad

 

[Amzin]

Team Red. Awww yiss.

Also, bought a game already, for some reason I did not own Witcher 2 even though I'm pretty sure I did.

 

[Speevy]

check again near the end. there are still ...like 13 days left of deals.

Well I know that, believe it or not, some people are so obsessed with this stuff that they start creating those lists near the beginning. I'm talking about the indie/old games that are so cheap that dailies won't make them any cheaper.

 

[Kid Ska]

Team Red. Awww yiss.

Dammit now you're making me want Team Red.

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

So if I get this right, the only thing you get for being on the winning team is a fraction of a chance to win some games of your wishlist, and only if you contributed points for that day (and some extra summer sale cards)? Well that's something I guess

 

[CecilRousso]

That game is not on my planned list. Stop tempting me!

 

[Ezalc]

That shouldn't really matter. I think any sane person on GAF already owns these games after the Humble Weekly deal.

I don't have it either, there was a deal?

 

[aku:jiki]

Well I know that, believe it or not, some people are so obsessed with this stuff that they start creating those lists near the beginning. I'm talking about the indie/old games that are so cheap that dailies won't make them any cheaper.

Secret of the Magic Crystals is $0.99. If you're honest with yourself, do you really need any other game ever again? The answer is no.

 

[Phawx]

#TeamGreen we can do this.

 

[Lomax]

Haha, the A Wizard's Lizard devs are trying to claim on the forums that they weren't inspired by Binding of Isaac at all.

I think that's honestly the most obvious and brazen lie I've ever heard in my entire life.

Especially since when they spammed me via Raptr about their Kickstarter, it was specifically due to my Binding of Isaac playtime. I can understand them not wanting people to just make that comparison though. We need more binding of isaac clones in the world in my opinion though.

That message (they changed the name before release):

Hey there, I hope you don't mind me messaging you like this (apologies if you do). I noticed you've played a lot of Binding of Isaac and Don't Starve. I'm working on an indie game that people tell me reminds them of BoI and I was wondering if you'd like to check it out. It's a Windows/Mac game on Kickstarter and there' s a browser-based demo too: http://www.cryptrun.com/ Cheers, -Matt

Team Blue signing in.

Finally picked up Far Cry 3, since I don't have much else in my backlog that's like it at the moment.

Trying to decide if I want to get X-Com.

 

[masterkajo]

EDIT: Nevermind. The page loaded and I can see now that 30 members of the winning team that helped score points will get 3 games of their wishlist.

 

[Anteater]

#TeamGreen we can do this.

 

[Divius]

#TeamGreen we can do this.

edit: great minds..

 

[Hey_Blinkin]

I wonder if Enslaved will go any lower than %75 off. Have always been curious about that game.

 

[RavenValor95]

I finally managed to join a team, and I'm Team Red!
Yeah!

FOREVER RED.

GRUNTING NOISES, A-YAH

 

[Eusis]

So will the games that have minor discounts now DEFINITELY be in a flash/daily sale?

Or is it still random?

Huge games like DSII will probably go on sale eventually, so yes probably.

Seriously, you NEED to learn to wait with this sale, else you'll want to go back in time just to beat the shit out of yourself for being dumb enough to jump at a sale ASAP.

EDIT: And how do you go ten years as a Steam member without knowing the first rule of sales. Must've just jumped on for HL2 or something...

 

[Zombie James]

Democracy 3 sounds incredibly appealing to me. What's the mod scene like?

 

[SmithnCo]

10 points for team pink.

 

[Mavromatis]

Avatars if you want you want to use them while the sale is going on:

Would be great fun when people start team switching, *glares at team red*

Great, now I can't recognize anyone. Because you know names don't work without images, and you might as well name yourselves Yabba Dabba Doo! and I wouldn't notice.

 

[Necromanti]

Secret of the Magic Crystals is $0.99. If you're honest with yourself, do you really need any other game ever again? The answer is no.

The game came out more than 4 years ago, and they're still releasing patches and updates? Impressive.

 

[dot]

I am not sure about the winning of wishlist games yet. If your team wins and you helped score any points you are entered in the drawing of winning your wishlist? Also anyone who scored more than 30 points for the winning team wins the top 3 games on their wishlist? Is this correct?

Yes to the first question and no to the other one.

 

[Jomjom]

Yay was able to log in from my mobile browser. Team Red!

From a fellow blue, you don't want xcom. You need it

Spoiler

it was free on psn but seriously awesome game

[FloatOn]

yo is anyone on building a secret hidden sale of games worth a damn list yet?

I might get on that.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

C'mon Team Pink, time to don your shirts and get bad!

 

[Arthea]

Why nobody buys Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae? You know it's a fun game, don't you? and you can do insane comboing in it all day long.

 

[CecilRousso]

I wonder if Enslaved will go any lower than %75 off. Have always been curious about that game.

With this price, it really doesn't have to go lower.

 

[zma1013]

Okay I have to admit something. I've only played 2 of the games I bought from last year's sale and haven't beat any of them.

 

[Sub Zero]

So if I get this right, the only thing you get for being on the winning team is a fraction of a chance to win some games of your wishlist, and only if you contributed points for that day (and some extra summer sale cards)? Well that's something I guess

Yeah, and apparently only 30 people (out of millions) will win games each day, good luck with that

Personally, I am not bothering with this meta-game, I'll just sell the cards and hopefully I'll be able to grab a cheap indie game with the money I make

 

[Phawx]

#TeamGreen remember that you can get points by forming regular badges as well. All Valve game trading cards are stupid cheap. Get on it.

For those with a few bucks to contribute to the team, consider getting foils. They aren't as turbulent as the regular cards, which means you ultimately be spending less if you were down to go 10 deep anyhow.

Regular cards are going for $0.40~ (ones you can grab that don't sell out) and foils are $2.70~ which means they are $.27 for 10.

Let's get it done #TeamGreen

 

[Levyne]

WELL OKAY.

The three older games have a bundle, btw, save a few cents.

Also one of those games was apparently number 100. Not in diapers anymore!

 

[Whools]

The point deduction tokens are really cool, and would be a good way to keep all the teams within range of each other, but i doubt most people will understand/care about the game. They'll be too busy voting for borderlands 2 in the comm choice.

 

[Stabby McSter]

GO TEAM PINK

 

[Rickenslacker]

Secret of the Magic Crystals is $0.99. If you're honest with yourself, do you really need any other game ever again? The answer is no.

Recently had multiplayer racing DLC added for free as well. It's really the complete package and getting anything else on Steam is a fool's errand.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Man, that daily scoreboard is so bad, it reminds me of Fox News' attempts at making graphs.

 

[jshackles]

WELL OKAY.

You've done well.

Spoiler

I really need to pick up Original Sin.

 

[KenOD]

To prevent this thread from being clogged up, I'm giving away some games in another thread and I figure this is a good lull point between Flash sales so it won't hurt other giveaways too much.

If not, please do. Those are always great for finding gems you didn't know you needed, and then throwing your cash at Gabe.

That's why I said a fraction of a chance I'm not getting my hopes up for that either, I won't even contribute many points. I just like the hype of being on a winning team lol

 

[shmoglish]

Only Dishonored and Deadly P. for me.... I guess.
