Same question. I'm adding things just in case I win, such as Saints Row The Third, but I have no idea what else to throw on there.

I just browse the store and add anything that looks even a little interesting. Thanks for mentioning Saints Row, adding that.

Sorry if it has been asked elsewhere, but the games that are listed under "Camp Activity" that you can get tickets from, are those daily deals also? Or are those prices going on all sale long?

I'm buying two people a copy of Recettear before this daily deal is done and SalsaShark is deciding who gets them. It's up to you guys to convince him. Sorry SalsaShark. You can handle this however you want. Two first, two best, two worst your choice.

Luckily I put that it's a fans dream come true :p

The story is where's it's at. I'm definitely not claiming this as the definite TT experience but it's more than solid.

True, without spoiling anything, you revisit some of the same locales in the first 4 eps (haven't played the 5th) but the story is so good and compelling that you really don't think that it's getting respective. And each episode lets you visit different parts of the town which aren't open in the others so it kind of makes the episodes more worth looking forward to. Anyways, I paid the full price BUT for 12, it's a great price. I'd say it's worth 20.

I'm a huge BTTF fan. It still didn't do it for me. The story has its moments. I'd love to watch an animated movie of this adventure but the game simply wasn't fun for me.

Finally, the two games that were missing from the Telltale pack for me have showed up in my library. Hopefully that never happens again.

Question for anyone with Medal of Honor, does it have securom or tages solidshield or something? I'm seeing a deauthorize this machine selection when right clicking it. None of this is mentioned on the store page, kinda pisses me off.

Edit: Odd, they put Puzzle Agent 2 in my game library as well.

How does it compare to Tales of Monkey Island?
Click to expand...

I havent played BTTF yet, i just got it.

The praise is pretty universal as long as reviews go. It sits at a "solid game" spot. Id say if you like Back to the Future and adventure games you'd like it, even if it could be better.

Thats me guessing though..

FML I seen Charlequin bought Dreamfall and I clicked to see the price.....

Bought the bundle for 6.24

I'm at about 27.08 for the day with 5 games bought. I still feel good since I've always wanted to try both the Dreamfalls and Vampire the Masquerade.

I hear you there. I will take the game but something like your suggestions would be cool.

Yeah, it's Steamworks. And totally different from DoW2. Third person action shooter as opposed to RTS. But if it's the universe you didn't like, then sadly the glare is permanent.

Are those prize booth prizes permanent? I get the feeling that there may be some TF2 summer cooler keys added to that list. SAVE YOUR TICKETS!

I've looked back several pages and checked the first post and haven't seen a definitive answer...

I know individual games can go cheaper for daily deals, but have the packs every shown up in daily deals? I've got an itch, and the Telltale Pack can most definitely scratch it...

Added $75 to my account, don't expect to spend it all, mainly because I spent so much on the other sales.

Never seen a publisher pack go as a daily deal, but who knows with Valve.

Im aware its a different gameplay and all, its just that i fear i wont enjoy it as much without being invested in the world surrounding it, although im looking to change that.

We'll see

So, as far as the "challenges" for the tickets go, do they have to be done today ? Or can we finish them any time before the sale ends?

I suspected as much. I was going to add it, hoping it showed Valve I want it back on the store.

Recettear! Recettear, Salsa! Gift me, boy! If you have a copy of Recettear and I have a steam account and I have a straw and my straw reaches across the room and starts to drink your copy of Recettear. I drink your milkshake...! I mean I drink your copy! I drink it up!

Hm, I already own and have completed Borderlands on 360.

Is the PC version for $7.50 different enough to warrant the purchase?
Click to expand...


Not in my opinion. The interface is a little shoddy as well, since it was made for consoles.

I wonder if the prizes will change every day, or at least some of them. If they had a new TF2 item every day people would go insane.
