Go Red

 

[Tesseract]

why you no double dragon

 

[toastyToast]

I might grab Banner Saga and bow out.

Considering how cynical I was I'm surprised I bought anything

Call of Juarez Gunslinger
Splinter Cell Blacklist
Hitman: Blood Money
Risk of Rain
Can't Stop Laughing Bundle
Marlow Briggs

All in all a pretty cheap Steam sale

Spoiler

or is it?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Nothing for me again today. Consortium better show up soon after I've passed on GOG's offer several times now.

I gave up there, and just caved. Embarrassing that gog have shown steam up on so many offers so far.

 

[Divius]

Annnd that's a wrap for me and this sale.

No it isn't. You will return. They always do! Muahahaha

 

[Benedict]

It requires a SQEnix account so there's that. Initially it had crappy midi music but they finally patched it out for the original.

Sigh. Guess I'll skip out on it for now.

Bioshock Infinite's DLC won't go cheaper than 50% off (£7.99), right?

 

[Stone Ocean]

Very tempted to grab Child of Light.

 

[Cozmogramma]

Only $7.49 for the greatest MP FPS ever? You're practically stealing it at that price.

Haha, I know. Feeling a bit cheap this sale.

 

[Deleted member 57681]

Gave SpaceChem a try.

 

[Eklesp]

What's the good word on Batman Origins? Should I buy? I haven't played since Arkham Asylum.

I would play Arkham City if you haven't. I got kind of burnt out on Origins.

 

[Tellaerin]

Sounds better to me. At least pages of a comic book, once all collected, can tell a story. What do cards offer again?

Depends on the cards. Some of them offer interesting pieces of backstory or other trivia about the characters/creatures/whatever on them. Others are basically just pretty pictures. It's really up to the developers to decide how well they take advantage of cards.

 

[Peff]

Money for the key I used to buy Valiant Hearts with ? Seriously though, I actually bought them for the lulz since I doubt I'll ever spend the couple of hundred points I seem to have, so if anybody wants to know, it's four pages, no dialogue and it looks more like an (cool-looking) art collection to me, but maybe it makes more sense after playing the game.

 

[sabanoo]

PC gamer recently did an article about cheating. Here is a quote from the president of Tripwire:



http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/04/30/hacks-an-investigation-into-aimbot-dealers-wallhack-users-and-the-million-dollar-business-of-video-game-cheating/

Pretty interesting article but they didn't actually talk about not putting games on sale to stop cheaters.

 

[Rhaknar]

Valiant Hearts for 1 key is the highlight of the sale BY FAR

Spoiler

if valve doesnt remove it from all our accounts of course lol

 

[Anteater]

why you no double dragon

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

I kinda already know what you guys are going to tell me but i'm asking just to see if im wrong: how playable is CSGO with a controller?

I know that i had a ton of success with titanfall using a controller so i was curious.

 

[Deitus]

Pfft. Like you could play as a guy in Mass Effect. Shows what you know.

Spoiler

Sorry, BroShep.

True, FemShep was clearly the canon choice. But all of the marketing was focused around DudeShep, with the exception of the half-assed "you can play as a girl too" promotion for ME3.

And Dragon Age Origins doesn't even have voice acting, so there's considerably less effort put into their "female protagonist" than even Mass Effect.

 

[Kurtofan]

wasn't Banner saga already 50% off?

 

[Ibuki]

I could also offer on the 28th to just buy you a key in return if anyone wants to front me one. I know it sounds stupid, really want to grab this deal while I can. I will still give you summer cards in the mean time.

 

[kurahador]

Huh...The Secret World is 60%, but the Massive Edition is 75%.

Makes this the cheapest it has ever been. Get it folks!!

 

[Benedict]

what are the russian prices for Banner Saga, Child of Light and Valiant Heroes?
Enhanced Steam shows no global prices for me

And if it is in fact full English and not Russian.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

What's the good word on Batman Origins? Should I buy? I haven't played since Arkham Asylum.

It's good. combat is less balanced/finely tuned than Arkham City's, world is bigger than city's (much bigger than Asylum) but is really empty. Story is better than Asylum's and City's if that's something you're concerned with.

If you only like Asylum because of it being an imitation of Metroid-like games/the setting, then Origins doesn't have that kind of world design overall. City has better design than Origins, yet Origins is definitely worth playing if you like the series, same with it's Cold, Cold Heart DLC.

[Leatherface]

I would play Arkham City if you haven't. I got kind of burnt out on Origins.

Yeah I was thinking of getting Arkham City and holding off on Origins until the winter sales. I guess I'll pass for now. Thanks.

 

[Enco]

And if it is in fact full English and not Russian.

It better not be :lol

Installing it now. I'll update on how it goes.

 

[Khronico]

50% off for CSGO? Is this real life? That game has been on sale millions of times for 75% and more. What a bad set of dailies.

 

[hitgirl]

How do I get Valiant Heats? Someone learn me.

 

[ActStriker]

I'll ask again I guess. Can someone remind me what's bad about uPlay? I want to get Child of Light.

 

[Kid Ska]

I kinda already know what you guys are going to tell me but i'm asking just to see if im wrong: how playable is CSGO with a controller?

I know that i had a ton of success with titanfall using a controller so i was curious.

I feel like the faster pace of precision of CS:GO would make it much more difficult.

 

[TsuXna]

Conviction still only 40%- off my waiting continues. At the end i might not take it anymore and just purchase it.

 

[Kandrick]

And if it is in fact full English and not Russian.

It has 9 languages.

 

[Arthos]

Edit: Nevermind!

 

[Subject16]

I got it from a russian for 3 Battleblock cards

 

[toastyToast]

what are the russian prices for Banner Saga, Child of Light and Valiant Heroes?
Enhanced Steam shows no global prices for me

Banner Saga is $6.61

Can't see Child of Light atm

edit: It's more expensive $15.52

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Anyone willing to help out with getting a copy of valiant hearts?

I'm locked out of the community market until tomorrow night. Really not happy with this shit >_<

 

[Starwolf_UK]

What happens if you tell modbot Nojuniors and Juniorsonly?

Would that send him into a rage that was all fists and elbows?

I think the key would go unclaimed and in an annual cleanup Stump will throw the key out (I've seen a post of several hundred unclaimed keys happen before, sure most did not work but they got claimed).

How legit is Giana Sisters?

I hear it has some issues with the difficulty (especially the bosses) and needing collectibles to unlock boss levels.

Summer games done quick ran time attack mode this morning, completely blowing apart the target times. Do you like platformers with boost mechanics?

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Go red again!

 

[Sub Zero]

Now everybody owns Valiant Hearts... no way this shit's not going to get removed from our accounts lol

 

[RS4-]

Installing Valiant Hearts as well. I hope English!

 

[electroflame]

Sweet, I finally snagged a SangFroid giveaway.

Thanks, Benedict!

 

[AstuteClass]

No it isn't. You will return. They always do! Muahahaha

Hahaha oh I'm still going to check every 8 hours, I just have a feeling I have everything I'm going to get. Which is no slouch... I bought a tonne this sale.

 

[Yakkue]

I'll ask again I guess. Can someone remind me what's bad about uPlay? I want to get Child of Light.

It may randomly delete your save files.

 

[Anteater]

I'll ask again I guess. Can someone remind me what's bad about uPlay? I want to get Child of Light.

Some people get random save corruption, but it never happened to me, there are ways to back up your saves though, but uplay seems to run fine for me at least from steam.

 

[Fjord]

Also interested in Valiant Hearts for a key. PM

 

[Kid Ska]

Lol this valiant hearts shit is hilarious. We're all getting arrested

 

[Sourtreats]

2 Copies for 1 key, now that is a Russian Bro.

 

[Chance Hale]

It may randomly delete your safe files.

Ubisoft games are hardcore. Risk and reward.

I knew I should have saved a few keys and waited on Skyrim ;-; I have money though <3

 

[ViviOggi]

I got it from a russian for 3 Battleblock cards

Now that's a nice Russian.
