I loved the demo and was waiting for this to go on sale. It was up for a steam community choice discount, but people voted wrong.

A must have IMO, especially at that price.

Same here.

Ah it'll probably go on daily or flash sale sooner or later anyway.

EteRnal PAL · Dec 24, 2013

Don't miss out on this game guys and gals! One of the best gaming experiences in 2013!

zeeaykay · Dec 24, 2013

One of the top five games of the year. This game should be studied.

Levyne · Dec 24, 2013

I want to play it but not enough to unbox the 360.

Papercuts · Dec 24, 2013

Damn. Definitely jump on this if you haven't.

The Dear Leader · Dec 24, 2013

You'd be hard pressed to find 10 better games this year.

Disappointed right now.

Neverfade · Dec 24, 2013

How long does this deal last? Not at home and I assume I still cant use "points" from the website.

Marauder Shields · Dec 24, 2013

This thread is making me even more salty about the Steam vote. Had already added Brothers to my cart.

Dead Man Typing · Dec 24, 2013

"I've never done that before" - a phrase I said constantly while playing Brothers. Starbreeze deserve a lot of succes with this game. Well worth full price, never mind $5

VibratingDonkey · Dec 24, 2013

It'll probably be a daily eventually. And it's just 2 moneys more or some such as it is. But whatever, as long as you buy the thing.

Lemstar · Dec 24, 2013

It's unsure right now whether it's one of their rotating 12 days of Christmas daily sales or a weekly sale. I'd get it earlier than later, if possible.

jbug617 · Dec 24, 2013

I listed out all the sales that are on 360

I am deeply disappointed in the Steam community. Who even wants Chivalry?!?! I thought it was supposed to be dead!

and its not like it hasn't been on sale many times.

Charles Alan Ratliff · Dec 24, 2013

Thanks for the post! I was disappointed when it didn't win the Steam community vote. This is a good enough deal for me, however.

Yeah, wth guys. I would at least expect Fez to be next in line.

Natiko · Dec 24, 2013

Bought! Thanks OP, probably wouldn't have known it was on sale otherwise.

this had bad timing with new gen coming out. Glad whoever discounted this game, microsoft or developers.

friskykillface · Dec 24, 2013

Bully for $3.74 . I'm in B^) fantastic price

Cheddahz · Dec 24, 2013

If I recall, this is a week long deal as well

I really hope so. I want this but don't have the money right now for it

Colonel Nasty · Dec 24, 2013

I haven't played it yet but it'll probably end up in my top ten

Skinless · Dec 24, 2013

Sadly, this game was ruined for me by having to hold down those awful PS3 triggers. I didn't find out about the trigger attachments until AFTER I had finished the game...

border · Dec 24, 2013

I don't get what's up with Steam sales. Everyone cries because some game didn't win a stupid vote. But then it turns out that the game's Holiday sale price is like $2 more than the Community Sale price would have been. "Boo hoo, I have to pay $7.50 for one of the greatest games of the year instead of $4.50!" If the game is that important to you then why are you letting three bucks stand in your way?

It's what happens when you're dealing with a sufficiently large group of random people. Though I guess there is the potential rationalizations of being an MP game to try to get more people on, or to get the DLC on sale, but given that I swear it was on sale just a few days ago and it seems DLC rarely goes on sale (further) with the community vote winners... yeah, they're kind of imbeciles.

Cheap as hell, plain and simple, ha.

Man, this one stings so bad.

Brothers is being hailed as one of the best games "ever" by a few reviewers out there. I was expecting the Steam community to be on the ball, but alas .. fail.

Get with the program people!

Its official Steam is too mainstream.

Overdoziz · Dec 24, 2013

Neat little game with original (although sometimes confusing) controls and mechanics and a pretty nice storyline too. Definitely worth picking up.
Even if it doesn't come up as flash or daily sale on Steam it's still only €7,- which is still a steal.

Then you're missing the fuck out. It's one of those gaming experiences that reminds you why you like this medium in the first place.

Yup. I played it Saturday night and was blown away. It's rare to see a game that tells it's story so effectively through gameplay.

No_Style · Dec 24, 2013

I really wanted it for $4.50 on Steam.

When will people learn?!

DTLIONS1013 · Dec 24, 2013

Awesome, only two sales I wanted were this and ME3 DLC

SexyFish · Dec 24, 2013

It isn't like Brothers won't go on sale on Steam since it didn't win the community vote. It will come up as a flash sale or daily sale soon most likely.
