All of the Star Wars games are the missing deal according to the Summer Camp Steam Group

KOTOR, Force Unleashed 2, Battlefront II, Empire at War

Nice, BF2 is a nobrainer, FU2 if the price is good.

Hmmm, I'm considering Railworks at that price.

I'm also tempted to buy Black Ops, even though it's still vastly overpriced. I'm too cool for Call of Duty but I've played the console version at a friend's house and it's actually really fun. Will one of you guys talk me down?

I can't do that because it IS really fun. A group of us here still play it every other night. Just remember it is a Steamworks title, so finding a better deal is possible.

How the heck do you get 7 headshots in a row without dying unless you achievement boost it. You'd have to be a pro CS player to actually get it legitimately.

Death match or aim map. Or Headshot only mod. It's possible legit, but it's source so getting it in a pub would require extreme passiveness. In 1.6 this achievement would be easy.

The new one comes out in like 4 months.

You really don't, well perhaps in css you do.
The skill curve in cs is really long, even if you are in the middle that is more than good enough to destroy poor players on pubs.

Seems like valve were trolling the f5ers anyways =(

This post is just an excuse to echo the peer pressure to buy Just cause 2 : DO IT.

Guys, where are you seeing Just Cause 2 coming with JC1 and all the DLC? As far as I can tell, it's only JC2 that's 4.99.

The deals haven't fully switched over. Some of the daily deals are still priced at normal sale price.

Also Borderland is now $108% off. So you make 2.80 by buying it. Someone try it!
I tried. When I clicked it, the price was $20.08 or something.

At $2.50 if you haven't played it, not buying KotOR is a crime against humanity.
What if I like Mass Effect but dislike the Star Wars movies (except Star Wars V which is kind of cool)?

When I try loading the store page I got this message:

"Error 503 Service Unavailable

Guru Meditation:
XID: <series of numbers>"

Which is odd because Guru Meditation is Ian Bogosts Atari2600 game. Will it be on steam?

Nope. Pretty common web server error, likely inspired by the game (or the same thing that inspired the game).

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
I sort of want to buy KOTOR... but the old PC version I got from (D2D I think?) won't run for me....

I get like sub 10fps with my 4XXX series ATI card. :(
 
PEOPLE

The Star Wars Pack is THE MISSING DAILY DEAL

Force Unleashed II - 9.99
KOTOR - 2.49
Battlefront II - 2.49
Empire at War - 4.99


They're all listed as daily deals on their page. The Summer Camp Group page confirms this.

Another day has dawned and I see some of you forgot the sunscreen, yes I'm talking about you Sgt. Lawson, Jamie OD and Ranger .

Stop by the aid station to pick up some Aloe Vera.

You campers did great with yesterday's camp activities so we have added a bunch more to the list. And remember yesterday's are still available if you were not able to finish them up.

It's important to stretch before vigorous activity so get limbered up because here are today's deals.

SHOGUN 2
Call of Duty: Black Ops
GTA Classics
Star Wars: (KOTOR, Force Unleashed 2, Battlefront II, Empire at War)
The Heroes Pack
Dungeons
Devil May Cry 4
Just Cause 1 & 2
Railworks
Braid
SpaceChem
Hamilton's Great Adventure


P.S. Please let us know if you have seen the camp canoe. It seems to have disappeared during the night.

Ha! I got name checked. I wonder if the camp canoe thing is some sort of hidden easter egg.

ugh I don't like linking multiple accounts together but I guess I can stomach it until this contest is over and then unlink them.
For what it's worth: I linked my Facebook profile, got the ticket, then unlinked it straight away. The ticket stays.
