    So far :/

    Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition
    Fallout New Vegas ultimate edition
    Sim City 4 Deluxe Edition
    Borderlands Game of the year
    Mass Effect Collection

    There's about 1000 hours of gameplay in there alone if you want it.

    Is there a bundle I can buy to just add all the stuff you get with the gold version in with V or is it just a case of waiting for the gold version to show up cheap?


    I believe there is. I seen keys going for them for $5 on cheapassgamer so it seemed like good value.

    Really? It's probably the weakest of the last 4 in the series.

    Meh, it was only 2.49. I have V too ( and to Revolution on the xbox).

    Cheers, I'll keep an eye out for it so. Doesn't appear to be on steam itself though.

    Oh i know the problem is that there is still 7 more days of sales :eek:..... Need to get a bigger hard drive :cool:

    I would hold on on to Steam sales ones though. Those are the only ones unique. Only can be gotten on sale. Not just by buying game. So price of those might be a lot bigger later on. There will be always achievement Badge whores.

    Yeah I've got two of them. No I sold off a duplicate that I had for Kerbal.

    Third down. Underneath the actual gold version. Five euro.

    If anyone sees a car bombing it up the M50 between 5-6PM it's probably me trying to get home to get Mass Effect before the sale on the bundle ends. :pac:

    Steam App apparently can't establish a secure connection over my 3G connection for whatever reason when I'm trying to pay for it :mad: Damn it steam just take my money.

    Aye, who knows what you could get for the sale cards down the line! I am a hoarder myself, haven't sold anything yet. :D

    Excellent, not sure how I missed that! Only paid a fiver for the game in the first place too.

    It'll hardly come down more than that will it? Or was it already discounted the other day?

    If you are worried about time, I could buy it myself and gift it to you. I have a paypal, but I'd probably prefer a gifted game of the same or less value to be honest.

    Thats a lot of content for a fiver. I dont know if Gods and Kings is included at that price. If it is I would get it now.

    Been a very light sale so far; tempted by a few but not given in:

    Left for Dead 2 - 3.49
    Poker night & Poker night 2 - 4.48 (I'm a sucker for TF2 items)

    Do people bet tf2 items or how does the poker yoke work?

    Well it appears that Steam finally took my money for Mass Effect :cool: Now to find time to play the damn game :o

    It is included as far as I know, will grab it for sure. Thanks again.

    A fiver for Civ V? Previous offer or something?

    It was on offer on G2PLAY.net about 3 weeks ago. Pretty sure someone posted it up in the bargains thread here and that's how I saw it. It's 9:99 on there now.

    Ah balls. Still, €9.99 is a fantastic price for it. Do the DLC packs ad much to the main game?

    Gold has all the DLC packs barring the latest one has it? I take it its worth the extra?

    Only had a spin in the first one but basically the guys (NPCs; not seen any multiplayer so far) will all throw in 10k USD but sometimes they will instead throw in a TF2 item instead. If you eliminate the player who threw in the TF2 item you unlock it.

    it has everything but Brave New World and is worth the €5(?) extra over the standard

    I got the gold edition for €10 on a flash sale I think so it may go back to that price in a community or daily deal again before the sale is over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,496 ✭✭✭✭kowloon


    It's small money but these Steam sales put me on edge. I spent $20 on Kinetic Void a few days ago, was something like €7.50 in the sale. I feel like I've been cheated out of a fortune :pac:

    If you get it for a tenner off g2play and get the gold upgrade above from steam then works out 5 euro cheaper than gold edition is on steam at the moment.
