Any opinions on Dragon Commander? I have heard some good and some bad, but I also have almost no idea what you actually do in the game still.

RTS game where you can turn into a dragon. Has Risk-based conquest mode and cards to use for advantages on both the board and in battle and a Starcraft 2 style hub for researching and conversation. Lots of moral-based choices that give trade-offs on benefits and race relations.

RTS battles aren't base building focused (although you do construct buildings) and are designed to be quick and furious.

It's fun.

Is Deus Ex: The Fall really that bad? I'm thinking about it because I have enough Steam credit to knock the game down to 30 cents.

I'm not expecting a console-quality game here. I know it's a mobile port, but is it at least a decent immersive sim?
 
Alright, I've finally decided what I'm gonna pick up to end this sale. I'm gonna pick up Civ5, and any $2.50 game that looks good. My friend has Civ5, so I might be able to play with them. I'm pretty interested in Hotline Miami and Deus Ex for $1 each.

By the way, when Deus Ex Human Revolution was a deal. Did Deus Ex go on sale as well? Enhanced Steam doesn't tell, since the lowest price for it was $0 before.

So from the look of it, we aren't going to get a sale on:

Gunpoint
Teleglitch
Strider
VVVVVV
or Rayman Origins

And please don't start with the "you should just buy them anyway" nonsense. I might pick up a couple of them, but all of these games (except Rayman) were community choice, and people voted against them. Rayman Origins was just bullshit that it didn't go on sale when Legends did. Thanks Valve for the sale taunt.

Gunpoint was on sale, I got it 75% off I think.

I feel like that game used to hit at least 75% off for a ton of sales in a row, and now get's almost no love. Really wished I picked it up when all those were hitting.
Yeah, me too. I still haven't forgotten that day when it was on sale and I gave the demos a try, only for my internet connection to die once I decided to buy the Carpe Fulgur collection, and not coming back until the sale was already over.

Good times. Not.

I know people are whining about the community options, but are State of Decay and Deadlight as good as they look? Never heard of either of them.

(LOL @ the teams still neck and neck 8 hours into the day. Surreal. I wonder if the servers are going to be able to handle the last 30 minutes of so)

Okay I just played a little bit of Transistor and holy shit, this game is goregous and plays incredibly. I thought I would regret dropping more money on this game than I did on RE4, but nope. Totally worth the daily sale price.

This music, omg.
 
Quick question about Enhanced Steam, can it scan all your games to see how many and which ones you have installed, and display how many GBs (or TB) it would take to install the all of the games in your Library that aren't installed?

That would be neat.

I have $2.56 left in my wallet and i was thinking in The Last Remnant,

Thoughts?

I bought it a while ago and haven't had time to really dig into it, but it seemed neat. Pretty cool combat and decent visuals. For that price, well worth the shot if you like JRPGs.

I'm pretty sure that was actually before the Summer sale though. I remember passing it up because I was sure it was going to be on sale the following week, and then it hasn't been.

But that is my bad for skipping out on a good deal.

to be fair gunpoint was 75% off the day before the sale
