Hot damn, crafted From Dust. A game I'm actually interested in for the price of free!

Civ 5 GOTY and Fallout NV dented the bank account today. Then I keep telling myself that some day I actually have more time to play games again.

I got that achievement a few days after it was up. It was made harder by this crappy keyboard. You'll just need to practice, practice, practice. At least you can do Sweater in 10 seconds flat by jumping over the walls, unless it's been patched.

In other news, 7 coals crafted into 50% off Oddbox. That event is shit.

So I got Dota 2 as a gift. Is this a full game or what?

No, just beta access. Odds are the full/release version will be free-to-play with TF2 like microtransactions. Still you can trade it on the Steam forums for around $10-$20 worth of another game. Have fun wading through the muck!

Fuck it, I got Deus Ex: HR and Grand Theft Auto Complete Pack, both deals for $30. And New Vegas is $5 now? I got it when it was at $10, bummer.

Now I'm pretty sure that Human Revolution will be at $10 in a few days. Fuck you Valve.

I would have jumped on DX:HR on GG when it was at 80% for a bit, but I missed it. Bah, I can wait. I got enough popamole to play when I get home, like finishing Assassin's Creed 2 (which I enjoy far more than the first game), DA:O, Payday and Hunted.

I'm tempted to get New Vegas, but I'm pretty certain there will be a GOTY edition sooner or later. Same for Deus Ex.

Why do I keep seeing people say this? The base game and ALL the DLC is available now for... what... $15. You aren't going to see the GOTY edition cheaper than that for another year.

I used to say the same thing some years ago, I enjoyed having the physical game box with the complete game, all in one package. Now packages are shitty, there is no game manual and most games aren't even released physically here in Brazil, so fuck it.

Besides, most of the DLC nowadays are shit, I just by the ones I want apart.

Because I detest the idea of DLC. And if it's more expensive then I will just wait longer. Not a big deal.

these last couple of days have been worthless

games are either shit or i own them already

Yeah, though of course this is going to happen as time goes on... the more sales we go for... the more game we pick... the less choices there'll be.

Nevermind, I finally leagalised my copy of New Vegas (which I kinda felt guilty about not doing - because I enjoyed it so much) and picked up all the DLC for it to boot (none of which I've played yet).

Also got SpaceChem and GTA:SA - the only GTA I don't already own on steam. Just about everything else in today's sale I already own.

I don't think it's possible to trade DLCs.

edit: I may be wrong

Should be possible -- at the checkout you'll get the 'for myself' or 'as a gift' option.
