Well, GTA4 runs somewhat choppy but it's playable enough.
I paid $5 for it a year ago and I regret it.
It was a gift. Can't really complain.

Could be worse, when GTA PC first came out tricore AMDs ran it better than Quadcore of the same line. Lulz. I when I saw benchmarks I seriously contemplated popping my old x3 back in...but that would have been too much work. So I uninstalled it and haven't played it since.
Ah my mistake
Ah my mistake
I suppose it's about time I get into quad cores.

There's like one flash deal left, and I have a feeling that none of them are going to be Chronicles of Riddick. Goddamnit Gabe. You gave me so much but not that last wishlist item.
Is it available (steam-key) for cheaper than 10 USD anywhere?

Hmm aren't they extending the whole flash deals too or it's strictly daily repeats this week-end?
I understand now. Every deal is repeated three times. It's a hint!

So what's going on with this extension anyways? Does it only cover the daily deals? I'm looking at a bunch of smaller indie titles to maybe pickup before the sale is over but some of them have been flash sales and community sales already so I'd like to wait until the last minute in case they pop up again. The countdown clock on the store pages shows the deals ending in 15 hours but they also haven't updated the front page to reflect the extension either. I can't recall what they did for the previous encores.

So I finally bought witcher and witcher 2 with these sales. I can barely run witcher 2 would anyone think I might have a better chance with Dark Souls ?
Amazon has it for $7.49 I thought... $2.49 if you have the $5 coupon.

Amazon isn't a option at the moment I'm just buying games with my steam wallet.

Weird. I got 6 DOTA 2 invites all at once
Seriously, who even asked for encore deals? Just makes this terrible sale even more silly.

Check your PM's in like two minutes.
YAY, Thank you very much.
Just finished Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. Wow, the game is still great, but I had forgotten that the combat was frustrating and annoying, and how one of the final puzzles dragged on and on. And the game had terrible changes of volume during dialogue, which made me lose half the conversations (even though I manually upped it during those moments); I don't remember those happening in the Spanish version that I played long ago.
And why the fuck does Farah scream like she's having an orgasm whenever an enemy hits her? I didn't remember that either, guess my 13 year old mind back then was too innocent.

You could probably ask someone to buy it for you in exchange of a Steam game of the same value.

is max payne any good? i bought the old ones. maybe i should just play them and then decide.. i spent so much on this sale already.
If you're not in a hurry to play MP3, you can always get it later. The first 2 are still very enjoyable (particularly MP2).
That too.
Yes, they're super duper great.

If I could just get Risen at 75% off this sale would be complete.

Hell? I bought Evochron: Mercenary but can't play because 'the key server is down'. What gives?
I'm inclined to agree, although I just wish it were longer. My first playthrough didn't take me more than ~6 hours.
"Failed to contact key server" typically means Valve has ran out of keys.

Ahahaha!
Edit: That's the last Flash Sale, everyone! Start making your final purchases!
I just had another "25% off? What kind of deal is that?" moment. I keep falling for the deals that aren't showing updated numbers yet.
Anyways, Dishonored is high on my wishlist but I've waited this long, I might as well hold out until it starts hitting a lower price point. $20 is my breaking point, I'm looking at you GMG.

awful last set of deals
Welp, do I have a likelihood of running Dishonored on 2gb of ram with a ati 4850 512mb ?
When I mean run, I mean at 1280x800 and medium settings.

Anyone who bought R.U.S.E. having trouble communicating with the server? I can't believe you have to sign in with a Uplay account before even starting the game.
