My first giveaway. Hopefully I set it up correctly.

And you chose a great game for that one. Good luck, GAF!

 

[Dictator93]

Shadow warrior is on sale, it is mine.

Mine.

Any Dota2 player want my level 1 reward? I think you have to have the game to open it.

Friend me and I'll give it to you. http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198035390630

friend request send...will take it

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

I'm thinking about getting Nidhogg but I have zero experience using multiple controllers at once on my PC. I have a DS4, a 360 wired pad, a DS2 with a USB adapter, and several DS3s.

Is there any chance I'd be able to use the wired 360 pad and DS4 (with or without an Xinput wrapper) and have things work smoothly or is it all a recipe for disaster?

 

[RelentlessRolento]

My first giveaway. Hopefully I set it up correctly.

already own it but good prize. almost as good as bad rats

 

[Madrugador]

Voted for Rayman Legends. Hope everyone gets it, amazing game.

Over 50 hours played and I got every achievement in the game <3

 

[JaseC]

I wonder: if you put a game that's no longer being actively sold in your top 3 for your wishlist, like cryostasis for example, will they give it to you if you're one of the 30 winners or just go down the list to your next game?

JaseC, this might be your ticket to Wheelman.

Others have already answered your question, so I'll just say that it's not possible to add Wheelman to one's wishlist. Some yanked games can be added just fine (e.g. Crysis 2 vanilla and Dragon Age 2), but others refuse to play along.

'Prey or Pray" has to be the dumbest tagline in recent memory. Most companies would have let it quietly slip away into oblivion but these guys just keep on truckin'.

I choked on my water when I saw it..

 

[fantomena]

Why are people buying Murdered? It will bomb quicker than Thief which bombed pretty quick.

 

[kris.]

Do it.

ughhhh i did it

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

Except we don't have Cornettos in America.

They may not be called cornettos, advertised under a different brand or made by a different manufacturer, but pretty much the same thing. And probably 100+ varieties.

 

[ChimpanzeeThat]

Just bought Splinter Cell Blacklist, hells yeah.

This brings my Summer Sale haul to 27 games. I'm fairly stoked with what i bought, got my Wishlist narrowed down to just 5 games now and might just pick up one or two more.

 

[rtcn63]

I wonder if it's good.

(If it's actually Bad Rats, you're going down..)

It's not.

 

[X05]

So Uruguay won!!!! yay

(sorry to the Italians in the thread)

I'll do a giveaway in celebration when I get home.

 

[Madrugador]

I might be wrong, but i believe LEGO movie DLC is a cheat to get more bricks. Marvel DLC is new characters and vehicles.

Cheat DLC are the worst DLC ever. Learned my lesson after buying all those awful Sleeping Dogs DLC by mistake

I just played through that. It was a good game although I'll admit I found the controls a bit wonky and taking time to get used to. Played with KBM of course.

Looking for a stealth game. Which is the better one...hitman absolution or sc: blacklist?

Blacklist is the superior game. Hitman peaked at Blood Money.

Plus we need more people on Spies vs Mercs.

[Yusaku]

I hope Divinity: Original Sin goes back on sale. Isn't the last day usually just games that were already on sale? I wonder how they decide which ones are selected.

 

[JaseC]

Not sure if this has been posted before, relevant:
http://www.dorkly.com/post/64641/the-true-purpose-of-steam-sales

This is accurate.

Oh, no, I have games that I actively dislike (hello, Fable 3!), but I don't mind their presence. Steam games are like Pokemon...

 

[Facism]

I'm interested in blacklist but put off by the wealth of content closed off behind a nonsense digital deluxe/dlc paygate.

[Lomax]

I'm thinking about getting Nidhogg but I have zero experience using multiple controllers at once on my PC. I have a DS4, a 360 wired pad, a DS2 with a USB adapter, and several DS3s.

Is there any chance I'd be able to use the wired 360 pad and DS4 (with or without an Xinput wrapper) and have things work smoothly or is it all a recipe for disaster?

I do it all the time, sometimes the wrapper will do odd things depending on the game but usually I have no more issues than just trying to run a single controller with a wrapper. Depends from game to game of course but honestly I've have much fewer issues with indie games like that than I have with mainstream games which tend to only support the 360 pad without some effort.

 

[cicero]

Yes, Blacklist is legit. If you're solid at stealth games I also highly recommend playing on Perfectionist difficulty. No dumb Execute maneuver, sonar goggles can't see through walls, enemies spot you more quickly, and you can't refill ammo mid-mission so there's more emphasis on stealth and being tactically adept with how you use your various tools.

Plot and scenario design are typical Clancy technothriller garbage, characters are just as shallow as you'd expect, and the economy is comically broken, but the actual core stealth is pretty strong.

The levels are fairly layered and individual missions can be quite lengthy your first time through; enemy AI is competent and on level retries they change their routes; the game is fairly well-balanced as far as allowing playthroughs for pure ghost stealth, lethal stealth, and all-out assault. The former approach is going to be more difficult than the latter, but that's by design, and in my experience so far there's only been one section where trying to ghost stealth was a little aggravating.

Spies vs. Mercs also makes its much-needed return, and every side mission can be completed in co-op, so the multiplayer element is also significant.

Very nice review and impressions, thank you.

One more question that I had seen asked 2-3 times earlier today but I never saw an answer to. Is the Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Blacklist Deluxe Edition worth buying? Is the extra content worthwhile or is like so many other Deluxe Editions with over powered game breaking weapons and worthless skins?

Swapper is so good.

 

[harrypmgaga]

Been a while since I have done one of these so I apologize in advance for any issues. Whoever grabs Frozen Synapse there is also a multi-player key I will PM you later. If any of these games already show as redeemed I apologize.

Anyone want to do another round of add a friend?

http://steamcommunity.com/id/blak_status

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Well shit. Ended up buying a pair of games that I probably shouldn't have.

Add Splinter Cell: Blacklist and Arma II to the damage list. Dayum.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

Looking for a stealth game. Which is the better one...hitman absolution or sc: blacklist?

I would recco deus ex HR over both if you haven't played that yet.

I played it with a controller. Worked pretty well. Probably the way to go.

I prefer KBM over controll in most shooters. I probably could have modified the bindings a bit to make it better but my primary complaint was that space was used for two different things that could conflict with eachother. Space was to jump from cover to cover and to climb over cover. And getting into cover was Q. So it was a bit odd but I got used to it.

Deux ex HR controls are 10x better though.

 

[kinoki]

So far the cheapest sale for me with only The Wolf Among Us (great btw) and Duke3D+Shadow Warrior picked up so far.

 

[Gurrry]

So this has been a terrible summer sale for me..

I only bought ONE game so far. Papers Please.

All of the other ones I kind of want just arent priced right... and I missed the flash sale on NBA2k14. Oh, and we STILL havent gotten a King of Fighters deal... cmon Gaben.

Im not sure if I should be sad or happy that my wallet is safe.. but ehh..

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

So I'm giving away one of the games in the banner above, which one though is a mystery.
