    Anyone else see CS:GO for -99%?
    It was listed as 0,13€ but before I could add it to the cart it had changed back to -66% :)

    You know what, I'm gonna change my mind and just get CS:GO,
    and use the €3 saved to get Amnesia: The Dark Descent tomorrow!

    It a sure-fire winner for the flash,
    that will be the lowest price it'll have ever been on Steam if it wins. :)

    I tried my best but by the time I got to paypal and back I just got an error processing the transaction. If only I'd been faster. :(

    Well I voted for Pay Day because I assumed that's what everyone wanted :P

    If Dungeon Defenders had Trading Cards I would be buying it right now :cool:

    Yeah I sorta voted for Payday too. Gav and dan were screaming for it. :)

    Payday was my vote too


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭McSasquatch


    Me too. Amnesia is great, but I already own it.

    That is, if Boardsies represent a fair cross-section of regular gamers. :P

    I got Amnesia when it went to €2.99 on Tuesday. :)

    Ahh, I missed that deal.
    I reckon there's no rush getting it then, as it'll probably appear
    on the last day of the sale at that price.


  • Registered Users Posts: 955 ✭✭✭Mister Man


    I've voted for PayDay. Have it on the PS3 (Free for PS+ memebers, if anyone cares)
    It's good fun, and I want to pick it up on PC too.
    Trine 2 is pretty good too though, if anyone is interested. Worth picking up if it comes on flash deal or something again.
    Picked up Magicka, Garys Mod, Ace of Spades, and Simcity 4 today. All v/ cheap. Ace of Spades was actually gifted to me. It's surprisingly fun! I hope a few people took advantage of the Dirt3 sale. Having a ball playing it today.
    I see Infestation is 75% off on the daily deal. Hope no one is falling for that!? It's The WarZ, re-named. STAY AWAY!
    I picked up Torchlight II during the week while it was on a flash deal. Haven't gotten around to playing it yet. If it's improved in anyway on the first, it's a great game, and worth buying.

    Not going to get anything else in this sale. Spent way too much alr....wait, XCOM and the dlc for under $20?

    Well played Steam. You win this round.

    Also do you need to play Witcher 1 for the story in Witcher 2 ?

    No you don't need to but there is no good reason not to as it's a good game in it's own right. I preferred the combat in the first but I'm only a little way into the sequel so my opinion may change.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,317 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    That's a great price for Company of Heroes. Well worth that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    Arguably one of the greatest strategy games ever for €2. Looks like Boardsie's are more representative of the general steam gamer than some would like to think. :D So, the question : Should we get Payday? :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭McSasquatch


    Yes. You have to put your money where your mouth is. :pac:

    Ye silver tongued boardies devils - Company of Heroes added to the list of my transgressions.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,317 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    Company of heroes was the first game I ever bought on steam. It's fantastic.

    I've put 100's of hours into COH multiplayer and purchased several copies over the years. At that price, it has to be one of the best purchases you could ever make. As mentioned before, Relic's RTS game before that, Dawn of War, is also worth checking out as it's also an unbelievably fantastic game, at the moment the Platinum pack is 4.99 (was 2.49 a few days ago, but it's still a good price). Like COH, I've also bought several copies of DOW over the years!


  • Registered Users Posts: 979 ✭✭✭_Puma_


    Finally caved last night and got out the card.

    Batman: Arkham Asylum €4.99
    Batman: Arkham City €7.49
    Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition €7.49
    Age of Empires: HD €9.49

    Also bought a Playstation 3 Controller on Ebay for the PC, €19.99.

    Total so far €29.46 + €19.99

    I've got my eye on
    Chivalry
    CS GO
    Far Cry 3

    CoH for €2 is a must for anybody who does not own it! I have it installed on my my PC all the time as I still give it go every now and again. The Best RTS game!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,575 ✭✭✭DeSelby83


    So when are we going to have a newbie CS:GO night :D I bought it a while ago but am just not able to play with all the seasoned vets online, man some of them are way too good

    Can never understand why people would use a ps controller on pc over an xbox one. The xbox controller is much nicer to hold, has some weight, and has triggers at the back that are great for racing games and games like GTA.

    The bother picked one up for 5 - 10 euro on ebay so cheap too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,389 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    Call of Juarez €11.39
    Endless Space €10.19
    Call of Juarez €10.04
    Dragonborn €9.99
    Blood Dragon €8.99
    Hitman Absolution €7.49
    Borderlands DLC €6.09
    Spec Ops €4.99
    Surgeon Simulator €3.39
    Deadlight €2.99
    Hitman DLC €1.52
    €77.07


    That'll do me, I think. Got what I came for, and then some. It'll do til Christmas.

    Doesn't the PS3 controller work out of the box? The Xbox needs either the wireless dongle or a pc-specific controller.

    No, a wired xbox controller works out of the box. You can pick them wired receivers up cheap on ebay if you want wireless. Got one myself.
