Retr0gamer

RolandIRL

Beat Hazard for me. Nothing else i wanted that can't wait for another sale.

pablomakaveli

Picked up Rock of Ages and Bastion today.

joshrogan

Bought Bastion today, 66% off only a fiver. Really fun indie RPG with quirky narration to boot.

Zapp Brannigan

I can buy it for ya as a gift if you're desperate for it. You can pay me back by buying me a game of the same value later on in the sale. If nothing crops up that I want, you can send it by PayPal. Only €2.49 sure.

Cheers for the offer but I was just in my cousins and I saw you can get it from the Mac App store for 2.99 so I'm gonna grab it from that. But thanks anyways.

No worries

Retr0gamer

Some good stuff today. Nabbed Terraria for 2.49, also getting Sequence for 0.99, heard great things about this RPG/DDR hybrid

Trying to see how much Prince of Persia forgotten sands is.

Also why the hell is KOTOR 2 not on steam?

Retr0gamer

4.99 for forgotten sands, SOLD!

Colmo52

Steam are trolling me. I bought Arkham Asylum yesterday, wrote a review for the achievement and what do I get, 50% off Arkham Asylum. :mad:

Gunmonkey

€2.49 for Terraria is criminally cheap.

ShadowHearth

did a review and got orange box to gift.... i need shogun 2

pablomakaveli

Bought Terraria and Sequence.

Manach

My review got me a piece of coal ie more than any other piece of reviewing ever.

Fanny Cradock

Is Stronghold 1/2 any good? It's available in a pack for €10. I like the idea of building and defending a castle from attack but it gets mixed reviews.

Krusader

Solar 2 and Sequence for me

Helix

terraria for me

There meant to be pretty good,the newest one is meant to be buggy as hell

caspa307

if anyone has a spare copy of terraria i willing to trade 2 coal

nesf

Terraria, Sequence and Patrician IV Gold for me. Patrician is definitely not a game for everybody, it's fun if you really like detailed economic simulators/trading simulators and it's very, well, German in terms of game design.

Charlie Haughy

5 coal here to trade for something, a game preferably... PM me if interested.

johnny_ultimate

Want to pick up AaaaAAA (etc...) but seems to be some payment issues on Steam's side.

I've never been so glad to be a Mac user though - it positively limits your choice when buying games on Steam sales so you don't end up buying every random curiosity :pac:

Same happening here. I'd finally caved and the payment system is down.

Sephiroth_dude

I've only gotten batman arkam city and bloodbowl this sale..........I'm soo proud of myself :pac:

Don't feel alone. I've only bought Monday Night Combat, Psychonauts and Serious Sam HD: Gold Edition.

Sure as hell hope id do a Doom daily deal.

ionapaul

The only games that interest me slightly today are the two most recent Prince of Persia ones (played the other three in the past) - are either worth getting?

K.O.Kiki

F*ck you, Valve.

I KEEP BUYING GAMES!!

ED E

Same


Promised myself no more steam purchases till late jan at least. Need dosh for a laptop so I can play all of these games on the go again

Krusader

Solar 2 fun little game, like plaing space marbles

sound like my type of game so ....I'm playing anno2070 atm and love it....is it more detailed than that?

ShadowHearth

I am really getting away easy on this sale this year:

Portal 2
Frozen synapse
EYE

Dunno if sale is very weak this year, or I have waaaaay too many games.

It looks to me that they've been reducing the big names less (understandable since most of them just came out 1-2 months ago.) and giving more indie games the spotlight this year.

Retr0gamer

Well I've spent a ****load. Have to top up the O2 card today.

Charlie Haughy

Considering KOTOR purely for nostalgia reasons....

Completionist

Managed to spend €30 of my €50 budget for this sale so far, i don't think im doing that bad:)

MarcusFenix

Would Blops be worth the 30 bobs??

danthefan

Plants vs Zombies and X3:Terran Conflict + Albion Prelude are all I've bought so far.

Bit less than that I'd pay for it. I'd buy it if it had a lower price than 'the steam off my piss'.

You can buy it cheaper on disc.
I wouldn't buy any call of duty game after 2 from steam, activision like their money too much to give you a good deal on digital distribution.

Jet Black

Is section 8 any good? Kinda looks like halo..

Nollog

I asked about section 8 back last time it was on offer, was told it had poopy single player and nobody playing online.

Dead space 2 has my interest piqued, but I probably wouldn't play it for a few years,by which time it will be cheaper. :-\

Skerries

thats exactly what i'm thinking Nollaig as I still haven't played the first Dead Space or Section 8 that are sitting in the still to play pile

Moon54

Some good cheap games today....

Assassin's Creed - €5
Dead Space - €3.74
Tomb Raider Legend/Anniversary - €2.50 each

I've only spent something like €12 on the sale so far, well down on last year,
so I'll probably get Assassin's Creed & Dead Space, they were good fun to play before.

ED E

Too busy to download TF2, surprised I am not.

Nerdkiller1991

Sigh. Why did I buy the Serious Sam HD Gold Edition yesterday when it was going to be a daily deal, today? Sometimes, I hate Steam's daily deals for this reason.

Dead Space 2 deserves full price and it demands to be played NOW!

KillianS

I just buy the newest games from intkeys.com (although I have had problems with codes) but steam sale is great for those classic games. Already got

Hearts Of Iron 3 Complete
Red Faction 1
Stalker SOC and COP
Napoleon Total War
Shogun (Gifted from a friend)

Anyway anyone who has bought "The Ship" gets two extra copies free and once gifted the person who receives gets two copies and so on. Anyone bought it?

Gunmonkey

Rush to login in 3 minutes to 6 to gift a copy of Terraria to a friend while it was cheap.

Complete Dungeon Defenders achievement....free copy of Terraria.
