Titanfall is honestly my most regrettable gaming purchase in the past 5 years.
Can get it cheaper than that. Origin Mexico for example has it for 20 dollars.
Regional pricing. It only cost an equivalent of 32 US dollars in asia.
Agree, agree and agree.
I have to start up Van Helsing II this weekend, see how it stacks up.
I don't get paid until Monday
Where do you find this?
Now with bigger plants and slower zombies.
It's Plants versus Zombies: Casual Edition!
(I did have nothing to do while my Internet was out for a while, and played some endless vasebreaker.)
See my earlier post on this same page.
Go to badge section > summer cards > click on 'How do I earn card drops?'

And how do you expect to get it from Origin Mexico onto your account? There isn't game trading like on Steam. If you use a proxy, they can find out and flag your account, making you unable to buy any more games on it forever. Do you want to risk it?

This is what I did. The game is definitely worth it. I have a lot of fun playing it.
Oh, nice. I got £20 worth of wallet top up for £17.50 on a deal before the sale. I've currently spent £18.50 in the sale and I've got £5.59 left in my Steam Wallet.
Doing alright.
You guys, don't push me.
I'll just change the store to Mexico but if I remember right, I need some kind of plugin and enter Origin through a web browser?

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
Many people use VPN on Origin with no problem.

$30.05. This is very, very likely to be the Steam sale I've ever spent the least on.

"You have spent approximately $80.43 USD in the store since the sale began."
Not that bad. I was planning to limit myself to $100 anyway.

I guess you just expect me to READ THE THREAD...
You have spent approximately $96.93 USD in the store since the sale began.
Not too bad imo. My first Steam sale. Divinity is taking up a lot of that.

Just crafted the badge and it said I got some "guest pass" or some game, but it kinda bugged out and I couldn't see what it was... I'm checking in inventory and can't see anything unusual.
Any ideas?
Any ideas?
I have spent like 16 usd so far (Borderlands 2 Goty, ff8 and fable) and it seems I won't be buying much for the rest of the sale, might end buying dark souls 2 later
"You have spent approximately $489.57 USD in the store since the sale began."
Steam is killing my wallet. To my defense, it's my first ever Steam sale, and I sold my Sony HMZ-T1 for this sale.
I was also looking out for this. However, it did not receive any discount during the Castlevania 2 daily so i highly doubt it will be discounted during this sale at all.

Sure they could check people living outside Mexico buying the games. The question is whether EA would do anything about it. Considering how many people do and they haven't banned anyone for it? No i don't think they would. If anything they'd fix it so it'll wipe your cart when you turn the VPN of before logging in. Which would partly stop it. Using a vpn to actually put payment details in is risky and flags digital river's protections.
Where do you check this?
It ain't easy being red.
I keep seeing complaints about the quality of this sale. Am I the only one who thinks it's been pretty good? Outside of community fumbles there have been a lot of good, exciting new titles as pretty nice deals.
But then , I think the indie scene on Steam is one of the best things about it. There are a lot of debut efforts or early access titles released by developers that don't quite yet have their footing... But it's still the indie section where you're going to find the most variation, the most experimentation, and the freshest ideas. On top of that, the contemporary indie scene has an aesthetic sense that really jibes with me. What you lack in budget and focus-tested polish you more than make up for with artistry, visuals, and sound design.
I would rather support projects that are the culmination of a dream, personal pursuits by small teams trying to produce the game they want, over projects that exist as franchise cash cows and sequel derivations.
(generalizations ahoy!)

I'd like to know this as well, I guess I can just look at the steam purchase emails and add them up.
Badges > On "Steam Summer Adventure 2014" click "How do I earn card drops?" in the top right corner.
I think the sale has been one of the better ones. I think with the abundance of random sales now with video games they just don't have the same impact as they used to, especially for those of us who frequent Slickdeals or CAG.

Haha, perfect avatar. I don't know, to me it seems like the majority of titles that have been flash/daily/community choices so far are titles that already have been on sale many, many times (and for cheaper in some cases). We'll see how the rest of the sale goes! I might also feel like that because I've bought a lot of these in previous sales (steam or otherwise) though.

-_-' I needed you yesterday. Killing Floor was on a deal and nobody could get the US version sadly.
You don't happen to have it in your inventory?

And some people have been caught and locked out. It is a risk you take.
They can, would, and have.
$168. Wow. That does include wolfenstein though.
I hope thats proper dollars though and not £ which is my local currency.
