Today the steam sale starts. If Sega were smart, they'd release Jet Set Radio HD today. You fucking cunts I hate you.

Brehvolution · « **Reply #1 on:** July 12, 2012, 09:48:54 AM »

I predict I'll buy some nice games for $5 and not even play them.

cool breeze · « **Reply #2 on:** July 12, 2012, 10:27:39 AM »

and I don't think Sega can release it anytime they want. It needs approval from Steam, Sony, and Microsoft since it's a simultaneous release. Same thing is happening with Retro City Rampage.

Timber · « **Reply #6 on:** July 12, 2012, 01:02:10 PM »

The Indie Pack games are only 0-50% off. What a waste.

Buy Grimrock, you fools.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #7 on:** July 12, 2012, 01:03:10 PM »

that's a neat idea

there's also something called "flash deals" with varying discounts which end anywhere from 6-12 hours

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #8 on:** July 12, 2012, 01:04:01 PM »

SALE IS NOW

Ys Oath of Felghana is $5.09. Kinda tempting...

ARMA II is only 20% off. That's gotta mean daily.

Witcher 2 for 60% is good. Witcher 2 for 75% off is better.

i will be the guinea pig and buy rayman origins.

cool breeze · « **Reply #18 on:** July 12, 2012, 01:52:49 PM »

so, in about 4 hours and 30 minutes it's going to be one of these three deals (in order of likeliness):

Batman Arkham City for ~$10
Saint's Row 3 for ~$12
Witcher 2 for ~$16

I was hoping for Witcher 2, but Batman Harley Quinn DLC for ~$3.50 would be nice too.

demi · « **Reply #19 on:** July 12, 2012, 01:54:09 PM »

The Harley Quinn DLC sucks uncut DICK

Dont buy it

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #20 on:** July 12, 2012, 01:54:18 PM »

Some of these publisher packs are good. 2k one is basicly buy Spec Ops get 5 other games free.

I've been waiting on steam sale for it.

Himu · « **Reply #26 on:** July 12, 2012, 03:30:49 PM »

Shatter for 2.49

Steve Youngblood · « **Reply #27 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:00:19 PM »

Picked up Rayman for $15.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #28 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:01:15 PM »

I voted Witcher 2 even though I already own it. You guys can thank me when it wins.

Purple Filth · « **Reply #29 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:02:46 PM »

Voted for Arkham City since i don't own it

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #30 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:03:05 PM »

Buying Grimrock, hope it's ok

Steve Youngblood · « **Reply #31 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:04:20 PM »

I didn't vote because I have Witcher and Arkham and don't care about Saints Row. Yes, I'm that cool -- what with the apathy and all.

Portal 2 and Grimrock are steals, if you don't own them you should after today.

I just bought Deus Ex HR for $7.50 for no discernible reason!

It takes more than having an obscure DC character avatar to be cool around these parts.

Being apathetic about Saints Row 3 is a capital crime.

I didn't want to have to go down this route, but just to put this to rest, I think my Steam friends list establishes how cool and well-liked I am. Do you have 3 friends on Steam? Yeah, that's right. Three! I almost can't count them on one hand.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #40 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:46:39 PM »

This is probably all I'll get today:

-Grotesque Tactics 1 and 2
-Hydrophobia: Prophecy
-The Bard's Tale
-Ys: Oath in Felghana

$15 total.

Himu · « **Reply #41 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:47:37 PM »

I just gifted a friend Stalker for 2 bucks. Now it's back to 4. What gives?

Steve Youngblood · « **Reply #42 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:48:39 PM »

I'd recommend Heroes VI, but $25 really isn't all that impressive for a Daily Deal on that one.

etiolate · « **Reply #43 on:** July 12, 2012, 05:23:34 PM »

Picked up the indie bundle since it has a few games I've been interested in.

they dropped the discount percent from 75 to 50 on those 2 games. Good thing i got them while they were in the former state

Seems someone fucked up earlier or their system is on the fritz but yet their price for the collection still makes no fucking sense.

They are supposed to patch those in at some point, right? Or are they saving that pivotal feature for an expansion?

Edit: Wait, hold the phone. Apparently the did just patch in town screen updates today! I'll have to check this out when I get home.

Hey, so which of the other STALKER games are good? I played through Shadow of Chernobyl but am also seeing Call of Pripyat and Clear Sky. Are they worth the time?

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #48 on:** July 12, 2012, 06:23:02 PM »

If you have a controller for your PC, I'll gift you Jamestown. Because it owns.

Or should I wait to see if there's a daily deal to say this.

Purple Filth · « **Reply #49 on:** July 12, 2012, 06:39:11 PM »

Looks like Saints Row 3 won with 36%

Batman 32%

Witcher 2 31%

Plus its THQ so its bound to have 5000 issues on PC.

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #58 on:** July 12, 2012, 06:51:41 PM »

it's a million times better than GTA
and a billion times funnier
and the PC port runs at locked 60 fps because Volition knows how to code
not buying it should be a bannable offense
