    73% played, 27% never played. The never played list is actually much smaller than that. For some reason many of the games I own have gone to 0 hrs. played.

    That's pretty inaccurate, lists at 0 played games that I finished, lists in the 0s also DLCs that I played.

    Yeah, it counts DLCs and things like all versions of Civ4 (including the mac ones which I have no idea why they even appear in the game library).

    Though as mentioned it's not particularly accurate. Plus I've got games I played before Steam kept track (Which was only a year or two ago) forever. Like HL2EP2.

    Finally, won't miss out on this one - the other DX sales were like just for 1 day or so; Also - do NOT buy the DX pack, you have only 1.16 euro compared to buying the individual games/dlc , but who wants invisible war anyway, that one is 2.49 so buying everything separately excluding DX:IW is the best option, Steamtards !

    New steam games released. The Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav, an adventure game based on the Dark Eye setting. 36 euros seems a bit steep for an adventure game these days but oh my god does the game look good visually. Made by the same people who made The Whispered World. Not surprising since I was instantly reminded of that game as soon as I looked at the first screenshot. This is definitely the #1 game I'll be waiting to get from the steam summer sales.

    'sup Drog. Anyway, was looking at Be-j00-eld 3 in the upcoming sale but now it's 80% off at $4. Honestly it's overpriced at $20 retail but I'm wondering if $4 is the lowest it'll go for a while or if they'll eventually just lower the retail price.

  13. Buddy gave me a free copy of Spore (On Origin, shudder) so that should sate that unnatural desire. Now I'm eyeballing the Civ5 expansion since it can be had for $15 at CDkeyshere, and eyeballing Quantum Conundrum since it's 25% off at the moment at Greenman Gaming and I've got $8 in trade in money there, bringing the game with "Season pass" DLC to $7.

    GABENNNNNNNNNNNNNN

    That's quite the conundrum you have there.

  15. Mildly tempted to dump $4 for the Avernum trilogy, too. Even as annoying as Avadon was I'm both a Steam and RPG packrat so that's two of my weaknesses in one. Comes out roughly 60% off from Steam price which isn't bad.

    And SWEET CUPPIN' CAKES that Dark Eye adventure game is pretty. I'll definitely wait for inevitable Steam sale, but holy hell. Know nothing about the game but the pictures give me an erection.

    :lol: I don't believe it's real though :lol:

    Well, after second playthrough it is fairly obvious they just mixed the voices from the other scenes. This blowjob though... :lol:

  20. Picked up civ5 expansion (Worked out a hair more expensive than what I spent per DLC civ at 75% off, but since it adds more stuff than just the new civs I went with it) and probably will do Avernum.
    Think I'll skip Quantum Conundrum, watched the Giantbomb quick look and it didn't look nearly as good as Portal for first person puzzling. More platforming than I would've liked (Portal series has a bit, but QC's looked like it had more room to get annoying), and the writing didn't look up to Portal snuff either. Probably won't get cheaper than $7 including the DLC for quite a while, but the credit I've got at GMG can be used on other shit in the future so I think I'll wait. If nothing else it'll let me pick up Sword of Islam for CK2 for $2 if it isn't included in the Amazon sale.

    Damn this videogaming monkey on my back. Guess there are worse guilty pleasures. That's how I'll justify it to myself at least.

    just think of yourself as a noir detective chainsmoking cigarettes and drinking in dusky bars, except the cigarettes are deals and the dusky bars are pages at steampowered.com

    Via CAG via Neo Gaf via t3h internets the Cubeman dev let slip that the Summer Sale won't start until July 12th (you can check out the Steam Cubeman forum for the conversation). I would die a little on the inside if true.

    I would be butt devastated if that was true. I wont be home for a few days since the 11th. Missing the first day of the summer sales spells bad luck until the Christmas sales.
