Hehehe, that means you've only played the first few levels of the first world.

Wait until you get to world 2...that's where it transcended for me from "fun" to "sublime"

Sweet, can't wait! Got to the boss of world 1 and figured out the first few steps of him but then I gave in for now. My eyes were giving in and failing to keep up.

Dude, what the fuck is up with that ticket challenge to join their Steam group? I tried to join earlier and it errored out and now it doesn't give me the option to join and I don't have the ticket.

So people are actually buying Toki Tori and using the guides to get a ticket?

*shakes head*

I'll slowly play my way through the 20 levels. If it ain't fun enough to play, it ain't worth the effort to get the ticket. Fortunately, it's worth the effort. Guides be damned.

Meh. I bought Toki Tori a while back, and that game doesn't even have an ounce of fun for me. So yea... I used a guide.

Hmmm so I joined the camp and then did 2 achieves to win the TF2 glasses, now I've done another achievement but it says I don't have any tickets and joining the camp achievement/whatever is grayed out and my little jar only shows 3 tickets. Working as intended?
 
Just saw the home page and the deals are good. I saw lead and gold for 1 fiddy and rushed to the page only to find out that I already bought it lol.

Oh, and Capcom must be really full of themselves to price SSF4 at that price lol.

Edit: Went to buy oblivion and I got hit with the same thing. I already own the sucker.
 
Is it me, or did TDU2 just went back up from 4,99 to 9,99 euros?

Also, the Unreal Deal pack at 25 euro is 10 more than during the christmas sale. First day of sales: nothing I want. ok, Bit Trip Runner, but that's a 'maybe' at best.

Don't understand all the Lead and Gold hate a few pages back. The game has serious net code issues, but aside from that I really enjoy it. Not something I would play on a regular basis, but the art style and general shooting mechanics are enough to make me come back every once in a while.

Thinking about MoH but don't like having to decide in next 12 hours. Fortunately Amazon matched priced on download version so I'll ponder a bit longer. I want a deal that gives me Airborne too

I have 17 hours logged and feel like I've barely gotten anywhere in the game. D:

Mainly because I keep restarting quests and stuff to play with my friends and whatever, BUT ALL IN GOOD FUN.

I believe it. I see myself playing a lot of this game. The only complaints I have are gamespy really? Then the lack of options to customize my graphics. That however I can deal with because Halo 2 Vista was more limited then this game and besides it runs damn good on my PC. lol

Any tips for getting the ticket for AaAaAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity?
It helps if you have a monkey, and he's all yours. He should be wearing a hat and trousers at all times.

Let me show you through these halls, my friend, where treasures of indie gaming await...
I bought the "golden ship"ticket for Beat Hazard but cant see any changes. Does anyone know what it does?

The Daily Deal is basically the lowest a game will be for that sale period.

damn...want the game, but ive got a few in my backlog now, and i can wait on a better price.

just saw the fallout collection for $10 - fallout 1 & 2, plus tactics. is tactics any good?

Alpha Protocol is already at 33% off, but what do you guys think the chances of it being a daily deal are?

I'd say high enough. Don't buy games unless they're a daily deal until the last day. There's always a chance.
 
Sorry if this was mentioned before. I purchased a bunch of packs and 3 of the daily deal games. For some reason, Assassins Creed Brotherhood appeared in my Library, and I don't believe any of the packs I purchased had this game. Did anyone else have this happen to them? I looked at the installer and it says its 10GB. Haven't gone through and downloaded it yet.

It was on sale for $7.50 (or maybe 6.80 like the guy above said) during the winter sale. Highly recommended, of course. ;)

Really OT, but this is the most active thread around.

How long is Bulletstorm? I just finished the building part, started looking for the monorail. Chapter 5, I think. Am I almost done?

Wait until the final day of sales. If it gets cheaper you don't lose anything, if not you can always buy it on the last day.
