I guess. Then again, I had to put in my DLC since I won it off of steamgifts, and they're so demanding.

I put 175 hours into Isaac before the DLC and thought that the new item additions made it significantly easier, but I'd put in a few hours before adding the new dungeons. Spiders suck.

Just want to say that I've really grown closer to you guys during this sale. Love you guys

I'd recommend Ys: Oath in that case. It's only five dollars and has an amazing combo system, combat mechanics, and soundtrack! I'd recommend Ys: Oranges as well if you have the extra cash.

Anyone play both games? Am I going to be sorry? Which one did you like better?

I will probably pick up Skyrim at a future sale anyway.

What's wrong with Skyrim controls? It supports kb&m as well as a 360 pad and has super easy modding. I like both of those games though and would not skip either.

I have no idea about that, but I think a 15 machine limit is plenty.

I just learned that a Mac version of Endless Space is coming. So my planing for the Steam Holiday Sale already begins right now :P

At last year's Summer sale, I bought over 15 games. This time I only bought one: Dear Esther.

The main reason is that I only played a few since the last sale and also, if there is a console version then I prefer that copy due to pads. I can never get used to how unatural and weird it feels to play on the keyboard (even the basic directional buttons aren't alined!) and fighting with the software to plug in my DS is annoying in itself.

I really wanted to get Witcher 2 and Anno 2070, but I'll wait for it to get cheaper since I almost didn't touch my PC gaming wise. Why buy more PC games when I have a catalog of 80 games?!

Cloudius12 · (07-23-2012, 04:45 PM)

15 min...and we are done.

Danielsan · (07-23-2012, 04:45 PM)

Just got back from work. 18 minutes left on the clock. Get Saints Row 3 or not? Decisions decisions...

Tell her you wrote the novel she's reading. She'll fall in love with you.

Trust me.

I'm good with women.

Yup.

The whole Summer Seal thing dates back to 2011. And to answer your next question, yes, there is a TF2 "hat".

Yup.

Better yet: you star in the novel she's reading.

Might want to buy some condoms beforehand, because it's going to get pretty crazy.

thiscoldblack · (07-23-2012, 04:47 PM)

I can't believe I will not get the Fort badge because of this 'Join the Summer Sale Group' issue. Anyone in the same boat?

marrec · (07-23-2012, 04:47 PM)

In the last 15 minutes or so:

If you haven't bought the Broken Sword Trilogy yet then BUY IT.

Brick · (07-23-2012, 04:47 PM)

Here's my last minute decision: Lego Batman 2 for $20? Yay or nay, GAF? YAY OR NAY?

I bought it for more than double of that and really enjoyed it.

PaulLFC · (07-23-2012, 04:48 PM)

If I have no New Vegas DLC and could get only one (or two at a stretch), which should I get?

Nope.. I just need to buy a game

Is anyone else having trouble checking out?

I H8 Memes · (07-23-2012, 04:49 PM)

Got pretty much everything I wanted for the sale except Psychonauts, costume quest, and the season pass for Saints Row 3. I always feel like the next sale isn't going to have much left for me to buy, then it rolls around and I see dozens of games I didn't even know I wanted. : D

Vlodril · (07-23-2012, 04:49 PM)

No one has any opinion on jagged alliance? Good or bad? (I guess that says it all doesn't it :P).

Celegus · (07-23-2012, 04:49 PM)

I'd vote yay on SR3 pack, game is so much fun! I haven't even liked a "GTA-style" game since GTA2, and I'm having a blast with it. And I vote nay on Bioshock 2, nowhere near as engrossing as the first. Sure the combat and gameplay is tighter, but it felt like a slog to get through (but that could be from high expectations from the first game).

Danielsan · (07-23-2012, 04:49 PM)

Bought!

I also want to thank everyone in this thread for making the sale a wonderful and exiting experience. And special thanks go out to Yoshichan, Xater, Salsashark, echothreealpha and Almostheathen for the great gifts. And Dragonlife for the Left 4 Dead 2 tips and Ys button configuration.

Steam GAF is awesome!

none of us are, but (not trying to come off as all high and migthy about it) some people in class are waaaay below the level of others, so not only was she going deep about the book but she was also doing it in all kinds of wrong ways, fucking up sentences, bad pronunciation, just any kind of mistake you could imagine

I know they're all there to learn but man, I was dying. I feel justified though cause whatever she was defending that god awful book

Reluctant-Hero · (07-23-2012, 04:51 PM)

So, OMD!, is the DLC worth getting or is the base game enough?

After reading numerous gaf impression on DLC, it is between Honest hearts or Lonesome Road. But I think it was more toward Lonesome Road.

Fuck, 175 hours?! Now I really want to play Binding of Isaac... thanks again for gifting me it Credo!

I'd say base game is enough. It's fun but I really had no desire to play more after the story mode is over.

Fireblend · (07-23-2012, 04:52 PM)

Last 10 minutes. It's been a wild (and fun) ride, gentlemen, I must say I'll be sad to see this thread die. See you all in Winter.

I haven't really played the maps much yet but the items are good. I use the Floor Scorcher and acid bomb things a lot. I'd say the maps are worth it too of the little I played.

EDIT: Also if you buy only the weapons you wont have enough points to fully upgrade every weapon/trap. You'll need the maps that if you care about that sort of thing.

I think I mentioned it before but after watching the Giantbomb QL of it I wanted no part in it. Today I tried out Jagged Alliance Online which is browser based and F2P. You actually get single player missions in it and PVP. Seems to be the superior game.

Not sure about the DLC, but the game id awesome. If you like it, I believe the DLC is new weapons, abilities, and missions.

Kirbyguy · (07-23-2012, 04:54 PM)

I thrive in the Winter. Because that's half of an Alaskan year so I'm forced to do it. Should prepare (GOOD) hot cocoa, none of that watery crap.

don't forget there is also a fall & halloween sale before the winter sale :)

Yoshichan · (07-23-2012, 04:54 PM)

I'm gonna head to dinner now (15-20 minutes) and when I'm back, this thread will probably be locked :( I'll miss you guys, but I'll see some of you in the official Steam thread!
