toblix Posted July 12, 2012 Hilarious joke about wallets! Annoyingly, when I loaded up the store, one of the nine deals of the day was a gray square saying "SORRY THIS GAME IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR REGION" Oh, also Crusader Kings 2 is 75% off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lu Posted July 12, 2012 Sold and I'll take that Sword of Islam thingy too! Once the store stops timing out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youmeyou Posted July 12, 2012 Aw I was really hoping Blur would get a discount. That game looks like exactly the kind of casual racer I need right now. I guess I can spring the 20 bucks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lu Posted July 12, 2012 If the Steam sales have taught me anything, it's to not buy anything that doesn't have crazy discount yet. I bought Bionic Commando for me and a friend for 20 bucks a piece when it was 25% off the 2nd last day of a summer sale. The last day it was on for 75% off.

Twig Posted July 12, 2012 Aw there's no fun metagame this time around. Probably for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanukitsune Posted July 12, 2012 Yeah, last time everything went a little out of control and they ran out prizes pretty fast. I'm not very "afraid" of the sale this time, there aren't that many games that I haven't gotten from a previous sale that I might care about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikemariano Posted July 12, 2012 I buy so many games during Steam sales and play none of them. I have an aging MacBook, which means I spent $25 so I could look at the name "iD Classic Collection" on a list of uninstalled games. So should I buy the PC only Bethesda collection?

Cigol Posted July 12, 2012 Aw there's no fun metagame this time around. Probably for the best. There is 'this' though; ...does anyone have the full badge and does it provide anything or is it just for show is the question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted July 12, 2012 Yeah I saw that. I'm going to assume no one can get that full badge until the last day, since you have to participate in at least one vote each day. U: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 12, 2012 Aww. I do enjoy their meta games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted July 12, 2012 "Pillar of Community" is a bit lame. I don't have a facebook account, so I can never complete that. Anyway... nothing of interest in the current sales. I already have everything I'm interesed in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyretic Posted July 12, 2012 Annoyingly, when I loaded up the store, one of the nine deals of the day was a gray square saying "SORRY THIS GAME IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR REGION" That happened to me the first time I loaded up the front page, but it's working now. It was the first Indie Bundle pack that was hidden, or it was for me at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toblix Posted July 12, 2012 Yeah, I haven't seen it since, and I just assumed there were more than nine things on sale. I guess I requested the page in the middle of an unsafe transaction or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyretic Posted July 12, 2012 The first post in this thread has a lot of good deals that would be easy to miss otherwise. I'm tempted to get World of Goo at 75%, as it seems unlikely that it will drop any more on a daily. I might wait and see though, you never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murdoc Posted July 12, 2012 I didn't end up getting Crusader Kings back when we were talking about so I picked it up today. Still no computer, but we should try to organize a Thumb game within the next month if anyone is interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkki Posted July 12, 2012 The first post in this thread has a lot of good deals that would be easy to miss otherwise. Ah, good. Found a couple of interesting ones: Scratches - is this the game Steve Gaynor mentioned in an interview about Gone Home? Robin Hood - a game with many flaws, but if you enjoyed Desperados or the Commandos games, you might like parts of it (at that price I dare recommend it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkki Posted July 12, 2012 Also, does anyone know something about Star Ruler, a 4X game? Seems interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted July 12, 2012 I'm considering Legend of Grimrock for a paltry €5,59 and The Binding of Isaac for 2andthensome. 500 euros? You won't see penny one from me, you slag! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youmeyou Posted July 12, 2012 Anyone play Dark Messiah of Might and Magic? It's down to $2.50 for the day. I want to try it, as it looks to be a great antecedent to Dishonored. (Devs in common) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkki Posted July 12, 2012 Anyone play Dark Messiah of Might and Magic? It's down to $2.50 for the day. I want to try it, as it looks to be a great antecedent to Dishonored. (Devs in common) I loved the game, mostly for the unique use of environment in combat (kicking Orcs into fires, spikes, down the stairs etc.), although it gets boring at one point. At that price, it's probably worth playing through the first half and not finishing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted July 12, 2012 I hear Dark Messiah is good fun with tactile combat. (Things I wish from the Might & Magic universe: a new proper Might & Magic RPG and an oldschool Heroes of Might & Magic game that captures the charm and 2D fantasy world the series was known and beloved for.) Question of my own: if I buy Shogun 2 (10 Euros), is it absolutely essential to get the Fall of the Samurai expansion pack with that (which is kind of expensive because it's new)?

Nappi Posted July 12, 2012 I don't know about the Falll of the Samurai, but I think Shogun 2 is well worth the 10 euros. You can always buy the expansion in the winter sale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted July 12, 2012 Unfortunately, my money is apparently not good enough for Steam, as it won't let me pass beyond the Paypal information screen. And before I can send a mail to their customer support, I need to create a second, separate account which I refuse to do for reasons of what the fuck.

dibs Posted July 12, 2012 I'm considering Legend of Grimrock for a paltry €5,59 and The Binding of Isaac for 2andthensome. 500 euros? You won't see penny one from me, you slag! Grim rock is great but rock hard. They are releasing a level maker 'soon' as well. Totally worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murdoc Posted July 12, 2012 Dark Messaih was neat for its day, but I stopped because of the cut scenes or a crash, or both, it was aweful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
