If AC2 gets the vote...any hope AC3 gets a discount?

 

[PaulLFC]

Damnit, US only.. Can I bypass this restriction ? (I'm living in Sweden)

Tnx anyway = )

I use Borderlinx - they give you a real US shipping address, for free. It's supposed to be for ordering physical items which they then ship on to you for a price, but since Amazon downloads don't ship anything, using it for that is free.

god dammit Retro City Rampage

these sales should serve as a reminder that I really shouldnt spend all the money I have for them on the first couple days. The first-days-suckness of them tricked me. Gaben is evil.

 

[gabbre]

Anyone for a Borderlands 2 4-pack?

 

[CambriaRising]

If AC2 gets the vote...any hope AC3 gets a discount?

I was kinda hoping for a bundle deal so I could get them all.

 

[ShaneB]

Have a gaf lurker awaiting registration on my friends list looking to part with a copy of Borderlands 1 goty for 5 bucks or any trade, or I believe he mentioned the cheap x-com dlc.

That be his id if anyone is interested.

It's possible, but don't expect more than 25% off.

I can't believe I missed MotN by five minutes.

dammit

To those that have the PC version of Dead Space 2, did they ever fix the horrible 360 pad controls from the first game?

I have it on origin and it controls fine. (As in just like the 360/PS3 versions)

 

[PaulLFC]

Same for me, well I had it at checkout at £5.99 and then, Steam being Steam at sale time "an unexpected error occurred", and then it was £8.99 again. Great.

 

[CaptainRizla]

Hoping that there will be an AC franchise pack now that AC2 has shown up in the vote

 

[Omega]

i have no interest in any of these games, which should i vote for?

 

[Sanic]

Hopefully this post isn't lost...

I reinstalled Windows the other day. All of my Steam stuff is on a second, separate drive. Problem is that some games just straight up don't work, and others only work if I verify cache integrity. Is there something I need to do here?

 

[SolarPowered]

I'm sure it'll be back sooner or later. There are still nine days of sales left.

 

[GabDX]

I swore I wouldn't buy any game before I went through at least half of my backlog.

...I bought:

Mass Effect
Mass Effect 2
Galactic Civilizations II: Ultimate Edition
Civilization IV
Botanicula

About $25.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Close your eyes and click on them.

You're sure? I may come off sounding like an asshole, but its just the first one had botched analog controls and when I brought it up everybody acted like I was crazy. If DS2 is properly fixed then I'll gladly vote for it.

 

[PaulLFC]

I hope so, I don't remember it being a daily deal yet so if it hasn't been, I'm pretty sure it will be before the sale ends.

Sort of tempted on Tropico 4...

 

[codhand]

last night i buy a friend far cry 3, cause he says he got no presents from anyone, this morning my boss gives me a $50 gift card his niece gave him, because he said his backlog is too large to need any new games. karma. :0

got:
dead rising 2
trine 2
rochard
rocketbird
sine mora
shank 2
mark of the ninja
deadlight
hotline miami

 

[GK86]

How is tropico 4?

 

[Mrbob]

This is like the 3rd time that Borderlands 1/2 has been on sale -_-

Yup. I'm guessing the sales have been crazy good with each time it has been on discount. So there is demand to put it back up on sale. Strike while the iron is hot.

 

[Deadbeat]

You're sure? I may come off sounding like an asshole, but its just the first one had botched analog controls and when I brought it up everybody acted like I was crazy. If DS2 is properly fixed then I'll gladly vote for it.

Its properly fixed from what I remember. edit: with the vsync off.

 

[CambriaRising]

I have the PS3 version and got it on origin for free. They both control the same. The only issue I ran into was a tiny bit of input lag from the Vsync.

Edit: You didn't come off like an asshole, you just want to be sure of your purchase, its cool

 

[Snapshot King]

Its properly fixed.

Thanks, much appreciated. Shame DS1 was never fixed as well.

 

[Salsa]

Dead Space 2 is so bad you guys

I mean whatever some of it is good

but that final section uggggggggggghhhhhhhhh

 

[The Atticus]

Sorry to ask again, but how much was Mark of the Ninja (UK) when it was on sale? Feel like buying it now if there wasn't much of a discount.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Sort of tempted on Tropico 4...

Kinda tempted too.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Gal Civ 2 is pretty damn good, even if flawed in some ways.

Probably been discussed already, but people should totally give it a try.

 

[SolarPowered]

I hope so, I don't remember it being a daily deal yet so if it hasn't been, I'm pretty sure it will be before the sale ends.

Indeed

You can sate your appetite by buying something else in the meantime. Already got Castle Crashers, Endless Space and Hotline Miami to make me feel a bit better.

 

[Snapshot King]

Didn't you make a topic about how shitty the final level was?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Tropico 4 is really good, however you MUST buy it WITH Modern Times expansion.

T4 + MT = 10 bucks and it's actually a great deal.

 

[cicero]

Decided to finally sleep and missed out on Sine More on GMG once again. "OUT OF STOCK"

 

[Cfuentes]

Thinking about tropico 4.
So, the best choice is base game + modern times?

 

[Infinite Jest]

Is Brotherhood or Revelations steam redeemable?

According to a number of GAFers, no. I'm going to wait until the new deals come around today and if it isn't on there (good chance it won't be with AC II being up for vote) , I'm just going to grab it from Amazon.

 

[codhand]

someone got me dead space 2 for 5 bucks on steam, i still havent played it

 

[ithorien]

The Dude from Just Cause 2 is bringing a Christmas tree

EDIT: JC2

You wanted the worst? You got the worst.

JC2 please.

If I win I'll take Just Cause 1, thanks!

I hope I'm not too late.

I've always wanted to check out Just Case 2

According to Babelfish, the words mean "I love Just Cause 2". I'm sorry.

Never played a hitman game, I would like to.

I'm super impatient, and since these are all so damn good, just bought you guys extra keys. Merry belated Xmas. Gimme a couple mins to PM.

 

[Mihos]

Thinking about tropico 4.

I loved Tropico 4. Had that 'one more turn' effect that kept me up way too late many nights, though.

 

[drizzle]

In over 120hrs I have never played with a team I knew beforehand and consider the community as one of the best out there. What class do you play? What level are you? Difficulty plays a big role also, everything over 'normal' and the ones who don't play as a team won't make it far.

I didn't play much, because I didn't find the game appealing, but pretty much every gameplay session I had with the game went like this:

Ok, I need to find a place to.... wait, where is everybody. I'll try to follow them.

Oh shit there's a billion monsters coming my way I need to shoot them or I'll die.

Wait, everybody is missing. I guess I'll have to deal with these monsters by myself for now.

Ok, I wasted all my ammo but I killed these monsters and didn't die. Hope I get to the store to buy more ammo.

Oh shit the store closed just as I was getting there, because I can't navigate this fucking map and nobody is helping me, where should I go? Great, half went that way and the other half went that day.

Oh, it doesn't really matter as there are 8 billion exploding monsters coming my way and I only have these 3 pistol shots and I'm dead.

I'm usually a medic. The only good match if Killing Floor I had was during the christmas event where people were actually helping each other out and somebody was calling the shots, like "hey let's weld this door down" or "let's all cover these entrances".

Every other time was fucking mayhem and whatever.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Thinking about tropico 4.
So, the best choice is base game + modern times?

Yup. Tropico 4 alone feels like T3 with some small additional gameplay changes. MT really amps everything and should have been base T4. With that said you can't go wrong with T4MT at 10 bucks.

You are a God sir, a God. Merry belated Christmas to you as well!

 

[Snapshot King]

I know it's a bit outside of the purview of this topic, but I noticed on GMG you can get pretty significant amounts of credit back if you pre-order new games (Like 15 bucks off Bioshock infinite.) Are these safe bets or should I wait and hope for like 25% off vouchers?

 

[Salsa]

Didn't you make a topic about how shitty the final level was?

I did, it was awful

 

[Snapshot King]

I did, it was awful

It was great, though.

 

[dark_inferno]

Well no discount on the Season Pass of Borderlands 2 AGAIN. Seems like assholes are now on the line.

 

[Salsa]

It was great, though.

I will accept that it is up to a very specific personal liking for that kind of section, but I thought it was cheap and terrible

 

[cbox]

Sweet, just bought Thief and Thief 2. Was tired of always finding my cds when I wanted to play them.

 

[Raxus]

I did, it was awful

A Horror game that forces you to conserve ammo becomes an action game in the last 10 minutes? Why you mad?

Spoiler

Salt in the wound my man. No worse than people actually thinking about buying Assassin's Creed 3.

 

[Zeeman]

Tempted by the Thief collection, although they'd just go right on to the backlog. Are any of the Thief games standouts? Do any of them have trouble with modern systems?
