    I like to collect them more than play them

    If only we could all be so honest with ourselves :o

    Thanks for that! I've really just started building up my Steam collection. I "followed" this thread only last week. I don't really play many of them but I like getting them cheap like with the Humble Bundle offers. I have a rule to never go over a fiver for a single game (as I said I like to collect them more than play them so there's no point in paying big prices for the latest stuff). Have about 220 so far but now I'm going to give it more of my attention.

    The Reddit game deals forum is quite good as well as the majority of the deals are international and most of the bundles are discussed

    Steam sale page seems to be bugging the hell out, so check on SteamDB in the meantime. There's a lot of great stuff to be had!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,611 ✭✭✭tony1980


    I really need to unsubscribe from this thread, only on pc a few months and already have a big backlog because of bargains and Steam game sharing!

    I seen on Reddit Gamedeals that Alienware have coupons that can be added to the already discounted games,I got Shadow Warrior (2013) for €1.31 with a 75% off coupon.

    There is also coupons for
    Hotline Miami 2 50% off
    Heavy Bullets 75% off
    The Talos Principle 50% off


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    If folks want any recommendations, seeing as the whole thing looks like a mess to navigate right now, worth a look:

    Mark of the Ninja - 80% off
    Castlevania - Lords of Shadow - 75% off

    That's the situation I kind of want to get to...it'll mean I've caught up! I now have 245 games...may I ask how many you have please?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234

    this game is horrible!

    Some really nice deals to be had from some other sites:

    Alien: Isolation €9.99 (80% off)
    Castlevania - Lords of Shadow 2 €5.99 (80% off)

    I'd snag Castlevania in a heartbeat myself, if I had finished the first one :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭mahoganygas


    I picked up a few to keep me going:

    - Anno 1404
    - This War of Mine
    - BioShock
    - Cities: Skyline

    Hello weekend!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 388 ✭✭LFC CONNAUGHTON


    Both the Humble Bundles are tempting me! New weekly one has Massive Chalice and Grim Fandango Remastered. https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

    I wish I followed that logic. Then I wouldn't have both Darksiders, Prototype, Darkness, all Tomb Raider, Hitman, etc games. Though I don't have that Castlevania. Have the first one unplayed though, so may have to get it as well.

    My general rule with these things is, "Am I going to play this right away?"

    If the answer is no, I won't buy it. There has been some exceptions to this lately though, the Telltale bundle during the Humble sale, and the recent Capcom bundle. So I've given myself a little wiggle room on the rule when it comes to bundles that are too good to pass up.

    If the answer is yes, then woo-hoo! Out of all the games I've bought recently (bundles not included), Vermintide, Stasis, Red Solstice, Darkest Dungeon, I started playing them right away. Really helps when trying not to add to the backlog. There's been a few games that are tempting me this sale, but none where I think "Yes, I will play this right away!"

    Hmm, so I claimed that Alienware voucher for The Talos Principle, which brings it down to €11.99, and I gotta say it's damn tempting. What do?

    Actually, the 75% off voucher for Shadow Warrior... It's currently 85% off, so the voucher brings it down to a 'Silly loose change' price of €1.31! :eek: I have more than that in my steam wallet from selling trading cards, I'd be mad not to grab it! :D

    Just to make it a bit easier on you folks, Shadow Warrior, 75% off Voucher. You're welcome. ;)

    Edit: And I got me a free Viscera Cleanup Detail: Shadow Warrior too.
