They started sending out emails when games on your wish lists are discounted, finally. Even the mobile app was giving out notifications.

Bethesda collection shows 96 bucks now. Does anyone know of anyone at all managing to get it when it was 30?

I did. But I already had a GamersGate account. That seemed to be a key factor for people on GAF who also managed to get it. Once I got through the GamersGate pages to the one that sends you to PayPal I was able to buy it in like a minute and GamersGate immediately e-mailed that the games were in my account. (And my card got charged.)

Only have managed to get two-thirds of the keys though because of the site servers falling apart. Rogue Warrior will have to wait to be activated another day...

I got one because I had a bunch of incomplete orders waiting so I just paid for one. Was hoping to gift some over Xmas but I can wait till mid jan for them.

Assholes on GAF selling keys for $10 each from this bundle are worthless humans.

No, no, not another sale where I buy more games I'll probably never play. Wallet's closed!

XCOM is $21 right now at one of those polish CD key sellers. I don't know how you guys feel about linking to them but I've bought from them before and hadn't had any issues.

If you're referring to Simply Games, they're legit.

You're doing it wrong, Valve.

Purple Filth · « **Reply #70 on:** December 22, 2012, 01:21:24 PM »

GMG has sleeping Dogs for about 12 with that 30% coupon and you either get $4 cash back or $6 in GMG credit.

Damn

Why would you vote for Ace of Spades over Primordia or Hotline Miami?

I swear, Steam is just trolling with these community votes. They have to be selecting the ones that get the least votes.

I've asked myself the very same question with multiple tower defense games and the answer is always "no".

Seems like Valve got a desired number of people in the door on Steam the past few years and now they're starting to chill on the sales.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #90 on:** December 23, 2012, 01:14:18 PM »

well, to be fair, most of us already own just about everything we wanted, for someone new to it the sales are probably pretty rad

i can't really think of anything else i want, and my wish list is just sort of there in case i accidentally win a contest or something

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #91 on:** December 23, 2012, 01:15:11 PM »

oops. yeah.

i've pirated it before, and I think the save file was messed up because I've never been able to do the tutorials so I've always found SC4 obtuse. Playing this store bought steam copy, and doing the tutorials however...it expands upon everything SC3 did in a much better way and explains the depth and secrets to playing in a far more fluid and friendly manner to the point where SC4 is no longer overwhelming for me.

archnemesis · « **Reply #104 on:** December 24, 2012, 11:02:31 AM »

Anno 2070 is a great game even though I prefer the older games with a historic setting. The DRM didn't cause any big issues for me, but I understand people who don't want to support anti-consumer practices.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #105 on:** December 24, 2012, 01:38:21 PM »

I'm tempted to get that Mass Effect pack today on Steam, just so I don't have to fire up Origin [or use a disc] whenever I want to play the only games in the franchise that matter.

Edit: Doesn't come with DLC, never mind.

Half-Minute Hero is fun as hell. It's an RPG parody where you level-up in seconds and try to beat each area as fast as you can. You have a 30 second timer than can be reset a few times, but still you'll beat most levels in no more than 2-3 minutes. The mechanics are really fun, and it's good for picking up and playing.

Both games are pretty polished as far as Lego games go, I'd say go for whichever universe you like the most: DC or LOTR?
