so, about those coupons, they seem to be regional or tied to account, I'm still not sure, if someone from EU wants one, you are free to have it and test if it works

FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 50% OFF
Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris with Season Pass 33% OFF
FINAL FANTASY III 50% OFF

Hmm that Ubi free game for the AC season pass seems to have given me a Steam key. Is there anyway to test it without using the key to make sure it's a steam key and not a Uplay key?

It's a Steam key. You'll see "STEAM" directly below the key, plus Uplay keys are either XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX or XXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX depending on how old the game is versus XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX for Steam.

Probably been posted already, but the Square Enix Christmas box turned out to be pretty good value for £5.

Thief
The Last Remnant
Murdered: Soul Suspect
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light
Deus Ex - The Fall
Nosgoth Founders - Warlord Pack

Two more games than last year, and the only game I had already was Last Remnant. Better than I expected to be honest.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Is there an enhanced steam port for Safari?

Nope, sorry. I was working on one about a year ago, but it turns out that Safari doesn't support cross domain communication in it's extensions like Chrome, Firefox, and Opera do. Since Steam exists on two different domains, that's kind important.

Wow, this is really good.
 
real shitty that crusader kings 2 is still so expensive
and after some research having the main dlcs is heavily recommended
but there's a little problem
nda7i7b.png
game is about 3 years old
doesn't look promising

same goes for europa universalis iv
main dlcs add lots of functionality
wonder how paradox' games keep so steady while most other games get a lot cheaper much faster

I remember getting a retail copy on the cheap years ago from Amazon.de (by accident). Maybe they still have stock.

Looks like new copies are selling for 9 Eurobucks (factoring in shipping), which doesn't save me much. I think I'll just wait until it's a Daily again -- the game's not going anywhere.

So guys...I have about 20 games ready to go for my giveaway.


Would you rather I curate specific dailies throughout the event and do one at the end, or look for good 75% or so off deals and do them all now?

You probably own the old ARES version in your library, giving it a bonus 50% discount.

EDIT: You should totz gift me that, if you're from my region. I would kindly reimburse. =]

half and half? :p

EDIT: Oh, if you have 20 already, then I guess that's the same answer as "wait?"

I mean I have picked 20 games, but I could choose different games and have a sort of "best of" giveaway.

In other words, if I do it now it's going to be more smaller games with huge discounts, as opposed to bigger games with daily discounts at the end.

Note to self, get more servers for the next sale.

I always make this note, always get more, and am always disappointed when they catch fire

Something is wrong with the download speed. Can't get over 1.1 MB. Usually I have 3-6 MB in speed.

Edit: Switched download server. Better.

Most of that DLC is cosmetic and not needed. You only need a couple of expansion DLCs for each (like Old Gods for CK2) and they're not that expensive. You can grab them on sale quite often at places like GamersGate and GMG.

And the value per hour played is well worth it. The full pack was like 36€ when CK2 was 75% off which was totally worth it IMO.
