Sale ends on Nov. 29 and there's still 2 indie packs left to go so there you go.

 

[dragonflys545]

The indie pulse pack is awesome holy shit! Wait there's going to be more indie packs?

OMG so what indie packs have i missed since the 24th?

Edit: hopefully they're going to have these indie packs in the Christmas sale.

 

[Baha]

I know there was the Story & Clever indie packs. The OP had the information but it's been removed since the list got too big maybe.

[EDIT]Ah the Energy pack on the 24th, the Story pack on the 25th, the Clever pack on 26th & today was the Pulse pack.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

The fact that I can't use more dollars until the 5th of December gives me a bad feeling on the stomach. I already missed Lara Croft and GOL; FUUUUUUUUUUUU

At least I got VVVVVVV dirt cheap.

 

[Schmattakopf]

Is there any DRM, Restrictions, or so forth?

Probably SecuROM with the retail version.

 

[IrishNinja]

huh....still a great package at that price.

hey, so im trying to play bit.trip.beat and after installing a few things, windows 7 boots it up but warns something's incompatible so it's going into basic color mode or whatever, and the game's stuck in window mode overlapping other programs, really makes it hard to play. any suggestions?

sorry to bump this, just wondering if i was flying solo here...i swear ill try the dumb gaming questions thread next if i get nothin'.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Seriously. I had always heard good things about Beat Hazard, but dang. Playing that with the right music is incredible. Polynomial/Bit.Trip are great as well. Such a great pack.

 

[shintoki]

Probably SecuROM with the retail version.

What about the Amazon DD? :lol

 

[Schmattakopf]

Oh, I didn't even see that it was a download. Unfortunately, all I can find is this:

Don't sweat it. You still have time to stock up on cash so you'll be ready for the end of the year sale. That's usually the best sale all year.

Can you just turn off windowed mode in the options? That basic colour mode thing happens from time to time, I wouldn't worry too much about that specifically.

I decided to give it a try. I figure if it turns out good. I get the game a bit cheaper. If it turns out to be a wreck, I'll just pick it up later down the road for like 5$ when they have another steam sale for it.

It's a competent service and the DRM is probably manageable.

see, if i can, i'm not seeing it in the options...shit's overlaying all weirdlike. i can click options, then video or whatever, but not seeing any change from there. and yeah, i set that problem to "ignore" cause the game's colors look fine, its just the screen itself, i move the mouse too far over and boom, now im controlling steam or firefox again while missing blocks in the game.

 

[Fredescu]

In video options theres a tick box for windowed mode. It's the third option in there.

 

[IrishNinja]

going to look harder next time, you're a saint.

I didn't read that, I don't want to be spoiled!

Going to the Steam Forum for that game is probably your best bet.

 

[bdouble]

Well I got the story pack and I'm thinking the Air pack will be my other purchase. Been meaning to get Gratuitous space battles for a while and Flotilla looked so damn cool especially after hearing it on Idlethumbs.

 

[pahamrick]

Damn, I already have everything but GSB in the air pack. I've got most of the puzzle pack but I'll probably buy it for the rest. But I'm sure I'll buy a few of them for gifts.

 

[Otrebor Nightmarecoat]

Thank you, Steam.

That is just awesome. Bless your luck.

 

[reggieandTFE]

Anyone think there's going to be a Witcher sale?

 

[Sysgen]

Seriously. I had always heard good things about Beat Hazard, but dang. Playing that with the right music is incredible. Polynomial/Bit.Trip are great as well. Such a great pack.

Just got done with my first sessions with Bit.Trip.Beat and Beat Hazard. Awesome especially Beat Hazard with its crazy visuals.

 

[Cronox]

If not this week, definitely during the Christmas sales.

Not now, Christmas like last year.

Hey guys, um... install Iron Grip from the Clever Pack. Make sure you get a few people to play co-op. It's a Tower Defense, First Person... RTS... and it's badass. I have 4 people into it now (including myself), it would be awesome if we could get 8 sometime.

We actually had to cut ourselves off in Iron Grip tonight. Last night things got out of hand and we went to bed at 4 in the morning. Tonight we stopped before 3!

Is the indie pack worth it if I already own Audiosurf and Beat Hazard? =/ bit.trip looks awesome, but I'm not very sure about the other two.
