[Halo 2]

Having played AW on 360 is like not having played AW.

Is it really that different?
I got AW on Steam and was deciding if it was worth it to actually play through it again.

 

[corrosivefrost]

So now that it is on sale, what so people think about Cloudbuilt?

I think it's pretty awesome the 2 levels I have played so far.

Why does it being on sale factor in to what people think about it? :3

 

[Blak_Status]

Someone please win this game from me!

Awesome giveaway!

 

[Stumpokapow]

If you win a game on ModBot, but then the game is invalid (key was already used), you are still counted as "winning" right? So can't enter any contests that are restricted by winning day before?

Yes, that is correct. It's unfortunately a necessity for a few reasons. If nuking the key was enough to reverse the win, it'd be quite easy to abuse the system by just winning and then nuking everything you win. And I can't babysit all the instances of issues or follow up to sort it out, so there has to be a filter against that. Given the number of entrants it's better to bias slightly in favour of disqualification rather than slightly in favour of qualification :/

More people buy it so more opinions?

 

[corrosivefrost]

I think my summer sale has concluded. I am up a disturbing number of games, got everything I wanted (and more), and will never see the end of 99% of the games I now own. Now to wait for the winter sale!

Welcome to the fold, brother.

 

[Gangxxter]

So, will be there new Daily-Deals/Flash-Sales/Community-Choices tomorrow on June 30th? Or will there be only repeats?

 

[Mokoi]

I'm pretty sure he asking for first impressions by the people who picked it up today.

I got AW on Steam and was deciding if it was worth it to actually play through it again.

The gameplay isn't of course, it's no Last Remnant, but the atmosphere benefits immensely from the better tech, it's pretty obvious that they started on PC and then had to heavily downgrade.

 

[Widdly Scuds]

dear gaben,

please put valdis story in a flash sale.

sincerely, your secret admirer

 

[kevin1025]

Welcome to the fold, brother.

It's a pretty good fold to be part of!

 

[Kadin]

Bring on a great encore day!

 

[Pachimari]

Why does it being on sale factor in to what people think about it? :3

It doesn't factor in. If you were here, you would have noticed people were pretty excited for it being in a community vote, and thus I would like to hear more people's impressions.

This.

 

[Zeeman]

Someone tell me about Shadowrun Returns

 

[Tellaerin]

What's M&M?

Might and Magic, clearly. >.>

 

[~Kinggi~]

its fucking scary how even the flags are right now.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Alan wake should get another flash sale

 

[Vodh]

I've gotten literally hundreds of dollars worth of games from GAF generosity and hours of fun. this is but a small thanks in return



Make sure to read the message too

Wow, this is a huge giveaway. Wolfenstein has been sitting on the top of my wishlist for this whole sale, for the slim chance of winning through team victory

 

[Kaisersalsek]

I bet ISPs notice when it's steam sale time

 

[ViviOggi]

dear gaben,

please put valdis story in a flash sale.

sincerely, your secret admirer

Amazing game.

 

[MikeDown]

skybuilt is very tempting, though I think im gonna have to pass it up till next sale

 

[corrosivefrost]

Someone tell me about Shadowrun Returns

It plays like that Shadowrun SNES game.

 

[dorxan]

The day ends 6pm - encore will start tomorrow, ending 5.59pm Monday

I may be wrong here, but I actually remember the encore sales ending one hour before the 'regular' sales (4.59pm)

 

[Pickles Spill]

The image for Goat Simulator is staring into my soul, begging to be bought. Dare I leap into the great beyond?

I dunno, I thought it was kind of dumb. At best it felt like an elaborate Garry's Mod level. Maybe at $2.50 I could recommend it for a few hours of fun, but not at $6.

 

[the_firewithin]

ah yah Broken Age finally.

but shit i missed BroForce guess i can wait until winter

 

[Gangxxter]

What's M&M?

I think there is/was a promotion campaign in the US by M&Ms (the stuff you can eat) where you could get a prepaid credit card with 6 USD worth of money on it.

 

[Raxus]

So many games I wanna buy, too bad I spent so much. I am just going to wait on Broforce and Towerfall Ascension.

I really want my friends to play Mercenary Kings with me

 

[Pachimari]

My summer sale will conclude with Assetto Corsa and Anno 1404: Gold.

And then I plan on having a lot of giveaways during or shortly after the winter sale. I just gotta put money aside for it first.

 

[D4rth Man7iz]

Oh Come on Steam!

If Wolfenstein is 50% off make it happen with Dark Souls II tomorrow!

Tired of waiting :'(

 

[~Kinggi~]

I might just have to go Here in order to nab some Might and Magic X steam keys. Ill wait till the end of the day for some flashes.

 

[Xeroblade]

Gaffers!!! do i buy Shadowrun Returns Deluxe or just the regular version!?

 

[Lomax]

The buy order system just can't come close to keeping up with the kind of volume these summer cards are getting right now.

Gaffers!!! do i buy Shadowrun Returns Deluxe or just the regular version!?

Buy the regular and Dragonfall.

 

[Pickles Spill]

I bet ISPs notice when it's steam sale time

:lol Do you actually think we download our games? Is that what we're supposed to do?

 

[Ozium]

I dunno, I thought it was kind of dumb. At best it felt like an elaborate Garry's Mod level. Maybe at $2.50 I could recommend it for a few hours of fun, but not at $6.

Have you played it since the update? The game actually runs smoother now, has wall running and parkour, and the new area is twice as big as the original with about 3x as much to do...

and the best part is the world feels more alive now since the people talk now...

 

[Grief.exe]

I bet ISPs notice when it's steam sale time

Valve calculated a random Dora 2 update took up 1% of the earth's total bandwidth.

Spoiler

citation needed. Completely off the top of my head

ah yah Broken Age finally.

but shit i missed BroForce guess i can wait until winter

I'd imagine it will come back around well before that point.

 

[SourCinnamon]

Gaffers!!! do i buy Shadowrun Returns Deluxe or just the regular version!?

The Deluxe Edition. The expansion (Shadowrun Dragonfall) is better than the base one.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Oh Come on Steam!

If Wolfenstein is 50% off make it happen with Dark Souls II tomorrow!

Tired of waiting :'(

I'm pretty sure you'll only going to become more tired...

 

[LurkerPrime]

Someone tell me about Shadowrun Returns

The base game is wiz, but the real star is the novahot Dragonfall expansion.

The game has a real dedication to the setting and atmosphere of Shadowrun. It's difficult to dislike such a fully-realized setting.

 

[Red Comet]

Cannot believe that the Half-Life series has not gotten a sale yet, considering that it is Valve's IP.


I bought Chivalry today. I wasn't really aware of this game before, but a medieval FPS is something that I simply could not pass on at that price .

 

[Easton Dark]

Alan wake should get another flash sale

Orion: Terraria Wake

 

[Halo 2]

The gameplay isn't of course, it's no Last Remnant, but the atmosphere benefits immensely from the better tech, it's pretty obvious that they started on PC and then had to heavily downgrade.

I was hoping to hear something about the atmosphere.
Thnx I'll definitely replay it!

There are gaffers trading it for 3 keys (approx 6.60 usd). Juat gotta look for them

 

[~Kinggi~]

Cannot believe that the Half-Life series has not gotten a sale yet, considering that it is Valve's IP.

Eventually they will just give it away. I mean when they put it on sale its a firesale. They probably have metrics that nearly everyone who has steam has the games.

Thank you!!!

 

[Lomax]

Deluxe doesn't come with the expansion.

 

[Anteater]

:lol Do you actually think we download our games? Is that what we're supposed to do?

i download all my newly bought games, that's right

 

[Kadin]

Buy the regular and Dragonfall.

I second this.

 

[border]

Is it that horrible to pay $6 for 3-4 hours of fun? I am always surprised at how picky people are over games that are already mega-cheap.

 

[Red Comet]

Everyone except for me! Holding out for the last day.

I noticed this too, but maybe they figure that almost everyone who wants half life 1 + 2 already has it at this point and they'd rather not waste sale slots. *shrugs*
