I've honestly lost all hope in community sales at this point. I'm just going to buy games now. Screw that I hypothetically get a super insanely good discount on all of the ones I want, because I know that won't happen anymore. The Steam voting community is complete idiots, none of the winners have been very good, and the good ones loose to the crappy ones. I'm Done.

Here guys. Knock yourselves out.

$5 Game -- MB-DD40DA24DCA5DE00 - Taken by topyy

$5 Game -- MB-DD40DA24DCA5DE00 - Taken by topyy

$5 Game

 

[The Grim Heaper]

The community votes for two games that have already been on sale and one that has been on sale for years.

Brilliant.

Don't forget Risen 2, which has been in one or two bundles before. :>

 

[BruteUA]

That's just such a huge differential tho. I might start making another foil hat to put on.

 

[phantomspiker]

Guess kinda old already, but I laughed:

Saw that the other day and it's still amazing.

 

[JakeD]

the reason they win is because they are 80% off. the reason they are 80% is because they are old and have been in fucking humble bundles and on sale numerous times. i'll be actually pissed if the losing deals aren't featured later on. this actually happened a couple times last year.

The community votes for two games that have already been on sale and one that has been on sale for years.

Brilliant.

The infinite logic of community votes

 

[Codeblue]

That vote percentage, damn.

Hope Pac-Man Museum crops up again sometime.

It's already $5, what was it getting discounted to?

 

[Jeremy]

I swear, you could put Transistor/Rust/Child of Light/Strider for 95% off vs. Borderlands 2/Magika/Just Cause 2/Batman: Arkham City for 50%, and the second group would win by 80%. Nothing against the games in the second group, but if you had any interest in buying them in the last 4-5 Steam sales, along with other site sales, you've had a billion chances to get each of those for cheap.

It makes me want to scream because it's so true.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I don't have Risen 2, and that was the only title I was interested in.

Well Risen 2 is exactly what you deserve for voting that way friend.

 

[SolidSnakesMyStepDad]

Arcade lost? What is this maddness?

2 Many Bros on Steam
#Confirmed

 

[JawesomeJaw]

I mean making plans for Double Dragon Neon might have been premature, but I didn't think we would be rebuked that bad.

 

[Kadin]

It's mind-boggling how good Call of Juarez is. I think I might just enjoy the nuggets of truth more than the action itself. Okay maybe not but seriously, learning some of this lore of the Wild West is damn intriguing.

 

[DexterPepper]

Blue team winning today is an absolute pisstake

Were you saying this yesterday about Pink and the day before about Green?

GIVE US OUR CHANCE

 

[Pickles Spill]

I almost forgot to buy Hitman: Contracts -80% $1.39. Only about 25 minutes left on the flash sale...

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I'll be picking up that one too.

 

[Haunted]

How the fuck did retro arcade lose....

;_;

Definitely would've snagged Double Dragon Neon!

 

[Tenrius]

Where did the "stope page" button go from the community hub layout? This doesn't make sense. I'm browsing my wishlist and clicking games takes me to their community hubs. If I want to actually buy them, I have search for them via the regular store search, which kinda defeats the purpose of the wishlist. I mean, I know there's a store page link on the wishlist itself, but it's still not very convenient not to have it on the community hub. Or maybe even switch it up and let clicking game titles take you to store pages and have a separate button for community hubs.

 

[Altazor]

*snip*

what? are you afraid of a couple of bad rats...?

 

[The Grim Heaper]

It's already $5, what was it getting discounted to?

$1 off, WHAT A DEAL

 

[vg260]

Aw come on. I wanted DD Neon. Thanks community.

 

[SmithnCo]

It's already $5, what was it getting discounted to?

4 bucks, lol

I will definitely get it on the last day if they don't discount it more by then

 

[Toki767]

Is that a real price?

 

[Rhaknar]

if you blacklist someone does it show on the modbot post?

So that's not only on my end. WTF.

if you blacklist someone does it show on the modbot post?

Yes, it says that certain member are blocked. No names.

 

[Ivan A Nguyen]

Broke down and got BL2 GOTY. I had thought about getting it on VITA and now that I have a Nvidia Shield, I might as well follow through. I liked the game last time. I look forward to playing a better class than Zero. Any suggestions?

 

[dot]

These community deals are very infuriating...

First the fighting games lost, then retro. Like come on!

why

 

[mrgone]

Brilliant.

Don't forget the one that was available in both Humble Deep Silver bundles for $1

$1

Risen 2 was $1 in two separate Humble Bundles

 

[Beelzebubs]

if you blacklist someone does it show on the modbot post?

Don't think so.

 

[Toki767]

if you blacklist someone does it show on the modbot post?

I don't believe so. Unless you really want to shame someone in public.

 

[Saganator]

Whoa, I won something! I finally have Limbo. Thank you bakeray. I'm working on my own giveaway now.

 

[TheSeks]

if you blacklist someone does it show on the modbot post?

No. It won't even tell them if they're blacklisted. It'll be like they didn't win in the first place.

 

[phantomspiker]

Yup, one of the few times I went out of my way to find collectibles.

I almost posted about this but I figured steam was borked at the time or something

yeah, it's ridiculous. I can't right click on a game I own and go to the Store page anymore. Not even going through Community first now, which was already annoying.

Now the only way to do it is type it into the store page's sarch bar.

go figure

 

[rtcn63]

There should be a way to blacklist bad rats. Or at least any future incarnations of the gaming in name or meta presence.

 

[Cody_D165]

Just Cause 2 - $3
Risen 2 - $5
Planetary Explorers - $15
Wasteland 2 - $40

 

[Haunted]

Is that a real price?

hush, you

 

[MUnited83]

if you blacklist someone does it show on the modbot post?

Nope, the blacklist is effectively "secret" afaik.

Spoiler

You are going to blacklist every American on GAF, aren't you?

 

[Vazra]

Open world exploration? Really?

 

[EdmondD]

Thank you INDIGO_CYCLOPS for Cargo! Ice-Pick Lodge is quite gifted at making these strange and unique games. Look forward to checking it out.

 

[Metroidvania]

Just got back from work, and wtf @ the backstep in dailies and community choice options.

Sigh.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Bwahah! Crank up the waterworks, you goobers!

 

[Rhaknar]

I don't believe so. Unless you really want to shame someone in public.

why else would I blacklist someone

Spoiler

never blacklisted anyone nor do I intend do...maybe CorrosiveFrost

 

[Biochet]

no

 

[RavenValor95]

I almost forgot to buy Hitman: Contracts -80% $1.39. Only about 25 minutes left on the flash sale...

Thanks for pointing this out, totally forgot to look it up and see if it was discounted, I just gifted it to my brother who's a big hitman fan.

 

[Nickle]

Are their still people who haven't played Just Cause 2? Anyone with even a half decent computer needs to buy Just Cause 2.

 

[drakaenae]

Been waiting to do this for a while now; there may or may not be an issue with RAGE/Far Cry 2 (accidentally clicked the links before sending them to ModBot, but I think I took care of it.) I apologize if there is. Enjoy, GAF!

Thanks for Septerra Core!

They could still go on sale during either the flash/daily sales. Wait for those, and only buy at the last moment if those don't pan out.

Could just say it in the post
