How are you planning on paying them back anyway? Paypal doesn't let you send money to Russian accounts.
Oh.

Well, I'm not biting at 33€, too steep for impulse buy. that's 47$ for crying out loud.

I'll save the money for other impulse purchases :D

this :)
I can snatch a physical limited edition@around 25-26 euros, so I doubt I'd buy the digital that much.

Ask someone from the US/Uk? It's 24-25€ that way. Okay still not in the impulse area, but a pretty good deal

Could some kind soul please gift me with some DOWII: Retribution goodness?

I'm keen to avoid the usual Aussie Butt****ing that the pubs tend to give us...

Please PM me, I can pay via Paypal or Pokemon cards.

EDIT: The part about the cards was a joke, I need two copies BTW :D

The THQ Hit Collection is interesting, mainly for the Warhammer games.

Would you guys recommend Warhammer for a non-RTS gamer?

I am really trying to learn from years past and exercise discipline. I downloaded the Recettear demo and it was cool, but I'm going to save that $5 for something else. I wanted BttF to go on sale and it did so I nabbed that. I also was inspired by the Retribution sale to buy DoWII gold off amazon for $16 (I can't see those two being much cheaper on Steam and since they activate on steam it's all good). I also am passing on Witcher 2 for now because I didn't really get into the first one and I expect it will be super cheap during the Christmas sale.

I kind of want Medal of Honor, but I refuse to buy another PC FPS where I can't adjust the single player FOV. I'm not wasting money on a game that might make me miserable.

SO FAR $12 in for BttF and loving it.
I don't know how far the demo covers, but probably didn't let you do the dungeon crawling if you played it and decided not to drop $5 on it.
 
BTTF and Recettear for me, kinda want DoW2: Retribution but can wait :)

Also, I hope I don't over 100 in the end D:

While I can't speak for the quality of the games, I am fairly certain that some sort of Warhammer daily deal will occur somewhere along the trip. Wait till then ; it's not like the package will go away anyways ;)

I'm a non-RTS gamer and I enjoyed playing thru Dawn of War II and Chaos Rising on Recruit difficulty.

I'm also a bad person, so I probably wouldn't have bought them if they didn't have GFWL Achievements.

I'm on Finnish, getting about 300kb/s now. Thanks for that, maybe somebody else will try Swedish and report which is better :D
Both should be great. I get from both 1.5mb/s constant.

How difficult are the tickets to get for AAAaaAAA and bit.trip beat?

Easy enough, actually. Did bit.trip beat without ever playing the game before in about 5 minutes...AAAaAAA can be tricky if you haven't played before, but shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to learn the game!

I guess the other people in my office are attacking the Steam sale (and our precious width of bands)...god damn gamers

EDIT - whoops, double post, sorry about that, thought the thread was moving much faster. Forgot it starts to die out near the end of each sale day...
 
Anyone have a witcher 2 and or a Borderlands GOTY gift for trade??

I am going to be buying 2 or three packs this sale and I will gift you something back! You can help decide the packs I buy!

Maybe i'm alone here, but i'm just a tad unhappy that the THQ pack doesn't include RF: Armageddon. I understand it's a new release, but the 2K pack includes Duke Nukem, and THQ could have even raised the price of their pack if needed.

And the Valve pack includes Portal 2

So, what daily deals do you want to see tomorrow? I'm hoping for Portal 2, SpaceChem and Duel of the Planeswalkers 2012 (as if).

Frozen Synapse, so I can get you all to buy it.

I assume* it ends at the first repayment (the text on that day said the demo would end soon). I was able to do the dungeon parts (the 5 floor one for the gulid card), shame I died twice due to not knowing how to use items but I passed it in the end...on my last day.

*-I say assume as I failed to make the payment...only ~1000 gold short which is not bad considering the dungeon mess-up.
 
Quick question: are tickets only obtainable during the designated 24 hours, or will I still be able to get, say Toki Tori's achievement, later?

The Treasure Hunt let you get them until the hunt ended, but you miss out on the sale.

I can't see them requiring you to get 7 headshot in a row in L&G in just <24 hours. That's just cruel.

Even with farming, this achievement seems difficult to trigger.

Last date to obtain ticket is 10th July. So yes you can obtain toki tori's ticket later.

If you can find a russian or american to gift it to you, it's 8€/23€.

Is there anyone who can gift it to me here from the gaffers? (btw. I'm new to this and I don't really know what you mean by that but thank you!)

Should still be able to get it after today. Pretty sure I even read you can try to get them throughout the whole summer sale (like 10-11 days right?)

Exchange rates/wrong pricing make it that a russian steam user has to pay 13 USD, which is 8€. Americans pay 33 dollars as opposed to 33€, which is 25€ or so. Get someone to gift the game to you from that region, and repay them through paypal. Voila, a game for the correct price!
