The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

Levels are terribly linear though.

 

It's still available in the Groupees "Build your Bundle 4" for 75 cents.

 

oh, so buy the groupees one. Along with Robin Hood and Men of War! Stellar Impact is DOTA Sci-Fi, which means it's meh, Fanstasy Wars looks like crap, but I played it for 10 minutes or so.

 

Oh shit, Endless Space for $10 ($8 with all my discounts) on Gamersgate. I think I'll probably go for that. Read some "It's alright but kinda dull" things about it at launch but looking at the update history on Steam they seem to be supporting it well. And in the event it hits a 75% daily or flash sale on Steam I'd only be paying 50 cents more on Gamersgate.

They're also doing Darksiders 2 which I could get with my additional Gamersgate discounts. Hmmmmm!

 

Derpsouls is $15 on Amazon for the next 20ish hours or so.

Hmm. Might grab Deponia. Haven't seen any of their adventure games in any indie bundles and I'd sorta like to pick them all up.

 

Do you only get a Steam Code from Amazon, or you buy a boxed copy and have to wait until they ship it to you? I don't want to wait for it, I want to play right after buying this shit.

 

Well it's Amazon Digital Download so, yep, it's a Steam code.

 

Extremely recommended for everyone that still haven't played.

 

I dunno... looks like console hack'n slash to me. Or am I wrong?

 

Majestic Majesty pack is now live, $9.99 for Majesty Gold, Majesty 2, Defenders of Ardania (plus DLC) and Warlock (plus DLC): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AAHSFAK?tag=cheapassgam08-20

 

It's a action-RPG, definetly, but it's probably the one of the best ever made. Not only the combat is very rich and precise, but the atmosphere and overall design is fantastic.

 

Already own Majesty HD, the only worthwhile game from that pack.

 

Warlock is good for that quasi-MoM fix.

 

Anyone played starpoint gemeni? Looks kinda like freelancer, which I liked.

Is retail dark souls tied to Steam? 15 dollars looks like a good reason to go legit, but don't want to tie an actually good game to steam unless I have to.

 

Probably not, since it comes with GFWL already, but I'm not sure...

 

Broken Sword Trilogy is on sale for the measly sum of 1,99€.

From the system requirements when you follow that link:
"Additional Info:Steam account and Games for Windows Live required for game activation and installation"

 

He's asking about a regular-retail boxed version, not the digital Amazon version.

 

Actually it is, at least the euro retail version I've got. And Amazon usually doesn't give out steam keys unless it's a steamworks game. Dark Souls is one of the few recent games worth getting retail though, it has a artbook and soundtrack cd and everything.

Edit: 2 more mins for new flash sales!

 

was ready to buy dark souls, thanks codex for letting me know it has GFWL. won't be purchasing!

anyone think FTL will go on sale? that's one of my most wanted games right now.

 

Well, he mentioned the $15, and the boxed version is $48. Also, Steam will mark this code with "retail". So I wasn't sure.

 

So how bad is fable 3, it has c&c and everything? Does it have Stephen Fry? And is inversion any good or is it a popamole with a shitty annoying gimmick you can only use in special hotspots?

 

I never got all the "rebels" that pass on a great game because there's a extra login screen before starting to play... sure it's pointless, but it's really not all the horror that people like to think and make a stand against...
