Not part of the sale, but I just grabbed Age of Conan + Expansion as I did the trial and the game is actually playable now.

Just Cause 2 is the only decent deal. Metro and Battlefield need bigger discounts

$4.43 for all Just Cause 2 DLC too

I'd get Battlefield if I didn't own it. But Metro is supposed to be short and linear and needs to be more around a rental price. Plus for $25 more you get all the other THQ stuff and its a great deal.

Just Cause 2 DLC is also half off but the only one really worth owning is the aerial pack with the jet booster. I own that too.

archie4208 · « **Reply #1160 on:** July 03, 2010, 01:10:30 PM »

I'll grab JC2 for $15 during the Christmas sale, and I'm disappointed that M&B Warband isn't on sale. Oh well, I guess I'll play some more Borderlands.

I know all the Just Cause 2 DLC isn't great but for $4 I don't really care.

How much have you guys spent during this sale? I've only spent ~$51 which is less than I thought, although those $3 and $4 games really add up.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #1166 on:** July 03, 2010, 02:18:11 PM »

on myself only $23.50 this time

some nice folks bought me some games, and i bought some for people, and i still have one or two to pick up for others before it is over

i also bought the COD pack, but i don't count it because i'm just selling my disc copies to pay for it so i consider it more of a trade out

is there going to be a daily deal tomorrow, or was this the last of it?

archie4208 · « **Reply #1167 on:** July 03, 2010, 02:29:47 PM »

Tomorrow is the last day, although it could be possible that it is just a repeat of previous sales.

Bebpo · « **Reply #1174 on:** July 03, 2010, 05:09:13 PM »

The last day will be good for me because if it doesn't go on sale I'm nabbing Men of War for $3.74!

But Tomb Raider Underworld for <$5 would be nice too

Sorta tempted to spend $1.50 on JC2 dlc for parachute thrusters and agency speedboat but I doubt I'll ever boot the game again so I'll pass.
Same with DMC4 for $7.50 but I'll never play it cause I played the hell out of the game on console and unlike DMC3 which is amazing with a zillion boss fights, no reason to go back to DMC4

I'll buy Mount & Blade when it hits $2-4 eventually.
I'll buy Metro 2033 when it hits <$10 eventually.
I'll buy S&M S3 after I actually finish playing Strongbad, Monkey Island, and Wallce&Gromitt.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #1175 on:** July 03, 2010, 08:51:53 PM »

I'm really only interested in The Last Remnant or Batman AA, since Risen isn't even on the US store. Last day is likely to be

Has anyone here actually played TLR on PC? I'm curious how they tweaked the difficulty to counterbalance the removal of the leader cap

Winterbottom
Thief: Deadly Shadows
Flotilla
Cryostasis

$11.22

will buy Dark Void Zero tomorrow, so probably closer to $15. I own too much already to take advantage of these deals

A lot of people swear by it, it's by far the best version. I think Prole mentioned how awesome it was a few days ago

I think the monsters are a little bit harder, but still it's pretty easy. Still awesome though.

Bebpo · « **Reply #1180 on:** July 03, 2010, 10:26:54 PM »

My total for the sale:

Ghostbusters $4
AvP Classic $1.25
Flotilla $2?
Gothic 2/3 $2
Kane & Lynch $5
Flatout UC $2
Madballs $2
Tropico 3 $7.50
P.B. Winterbottom $2.50
Max & The Magic Marker gift received

So I'm just rounding and about $30. Add in Men of War tomorrow for $4 and about $35 unless there's something good in the deals.

Considering I got all those games + Puzzle Agent ($10) for less than the price of a single X360/PS3 game after Amazon discounts, I think I made out well. And having gotten Mass Effect 2 from the EA sale for $24, I think I'm totally good on PC game buying until Black Friday sales. Although I'll buy Fallout NV at full price to support Oblivion.

I read somewhere they did something to balance it. So it's not like they just removed the cap and left it as is.

and I'm done for the summer.

I got back into Borderlands after playing with Archie yesterday. So if you guys pick it up we should get an EB game going on.

I'll play Borderlands. I have a level 28 soldier right now after a friend of mine and I did some power leveling yesterday.

about to grab the DLC as well (not mad Moxies tho)

FatalT · « **Reply #1187 on:** July 04, 2010, 02:19:34 PM »

I bought Borderlands and all three of the DLC packs. I feel good knowing the only game I bought during this sale was this, Altitude (for GF), and Madballs (for GF).

cool breeze · « **Reply #1188 on:** July 04, 2010, 02:22:23 PM »

has borderlands been fixed up since the release? and when you guys play, do you do the DLC a lot?

iconoclast · « **Reply #1189 on:** July 04, 2010, 02:33:05 PM »

TLR on PC seems like a good improvement. The battles are sped up so you don't have to sit through 3 minutes of animations, and I read that they changed the way the Battle Rank scaling works. Though looking at the enemy health differences between the PC version and the 360 version, the leader cap removal looks like it makes the game a whole lot easier. The Fallen even had his health decreased in the PC version, so unless they changed the fight, he's probably a joke in comparison. Which probably just means you'll have to do less grinding to beat him and the true final boss.

I can't for the life of me get Trine or the Tell Tale games pack into my damn cart and finish checkout. I've tried deleting cookies and reinstalling freaking steam.

I even tried my girlfriends account and these two just don't like me. I was able to get a L4D2 4 pack no problem though. WTF!?

This sale has been great for me

thus far:

Witch Enhanced Edition $6.69
Shatter $2.50
Beat Hazard $2.50
Overlord Collection $4.50
L4D2 $7.50

I don't think we have enough people to do a full TF2 game (the best we could do is all join up on a server and play together), but we should have enough to do L4D. When are some good times for everybody? I would assume that weekends would be the best.

okay, all members can schedule events, now

officers can also promote other members to officers, i only ever do it when i remember, but as far as i am concerned everyone can be an officer

the only thing i kept owner-only is editing group decription, kicking members, and deleting posts, so just message me if there are ever any problems
