The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

[Merkwürdigliebe]

This game is not available in your region. What am I missing out on here? Oh well it's most likely shit any way.

Hard Reset -75% off and it just got a free DLC too, wasn't gonna try this originally but now I have no choice.

 

[Azalin]

Ok people I have a question,what's the Kodex Kritical Koncesus on CK1?should I get that one too along CK2 now that the franchise is on sale or should I skip it and just go for CK2 instead?

 

[Don Peste]

Here people post deals that are not in the front page, like Kohan series (5€), Delve Deeper+Exp. (1.12€) or Penumbra Overture+Black Plague (4.49€): http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2799277

don't know if it's a summer sale price, but I got divine divinity for -30%.
none of the deals today were of any interest.

I would like to buy all the Civ V DLC + the new expansion in a bundle but I don't want to re-purchase the original...

 

[Turjan]

uhhh i hope ppl vote for SR3. TW2 is really old and Badman is boring.

I definitely voted for SR3. I guess we will get Batman, though. Let's hope that my gift of prediction sucks.

 

[Gord]

Hm, I'm kinda torn between TW2 and SR3. Both have something going for them in my book.
Probably tend towards TW2.
Batman doesn't make sense, it's on sale somewhere about every two weeks.

 

[Gerrard]

I looked at the SR3 store page and holy DLC batman.

 

[Metro]

TW2 is really old? SR3 goes on sale like every other week at some digital retailer or another. I bet some of the people voting for it won't even buy it this time and proclaim next week: AMG WHY ISNT SR3 ON SALE!!!?!

Voted for TWitcher because it rarely gets discounts on Steam... usually just during the big sales. Seems like a pretty dumb idea to hinge the one out of three times a year it goes on sale on a vote. Ah well.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

Yeah, I'm mostly waiting on a sweet SR3 pack deal/ideally overall discount of 75% and above so I can just pick the non retarded dlc

how's robin hood?

[Multi-headed Cow]

Anno 2070 bundle is $40. I'll probably buy that if it doesn't hit a daily/flash/community/whatever sale.

Let down that Rebellion has no discount and the Stardock bundle isn't out yet. And Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 doesn't have a discount. And there isn't a picture with video game characters in it. SORROW!

So this is the 'great' Steam Sale? Colour me unimpressed. I got better deals from Gamersgate every other week, and get shit with blue coins for free too.

Shit, I got better deals just picking individual things up like the Dawn of War franchise stuff a couple weeks back. 2.50 euro per title was great.

 

[IDtenT]

Most broken sale yet, imho.

 

[Infinitron]

Finally got Portal 2 cause I'm cheap like that.

Is there ever gonna be a Shogun 2 bundle that includes everything?

 

[Konjad]

Eschalon Book I is for 2€, Book II is for 3€.

Guys, I like Anno and Sim City series, but I dislike The Guild and The Sims series, will I like Patrician III?

 

[Turjan]

Well, I bought Sword of Islam. That took me two tries and about 20 minutes, so that's it for the day. There isn't anything else on sale I'm interested in at the moment, anyway.

I guess this is the "too many sales" syndrome. I bought most of the stuff I really want already during previous sales, and some stuff I want never gets good sales anywhere. But prices for the regular sales items seem to be better on amazon, too.

 

[Konjad]

Is Grand Ages: Rome good?

 

[Turjan]

I guess we will have to wait till next year for this one.

I have a feeling publishers have discovered people are waiting for the inevitably GOTY edition and have just decided not to have one. (no DA2 Ultimate either, not that I'd want one)

I bought DA2, I think including one DLC, when it was on sale together with DA1 Ultimate edition, which included all DLC, for $10 altogether. I haven't played it yet, as I didn't really buy the bundle for DA2. Which reminds that I still have to go on with DA1. I got stuck after one too many mobs of derpspawn.

Regarding your actual point, I still hope to see bundles with all DLC from publishers other than EA at some point when the games get older.

Patrician is a decent game. It's not comparable to any of those games listed though.

Grand Ages: Rome isn't too bad either. A bit of a throw back to Impressions Games era, but not quite so good.

Keep in mind you have to wait for the daily deals to pop up for the good discounts and we've only seen a day of them. That said, as I mentioned, the base discounts are pretty tame. I see 40% off Warlock which leads me to believe it'll only be like 60% off on the daily. Meh. I put $50 on Steam wallet in advance of this and, as of now, I'd be surprised if I spent all of that.

Same here. Been waiting on TWitcher 2 until it goes on sale, and that never really happens. I guess I don't need it, so if it doesn't go on sale I will just have more time for other things.

 

[Brayko]

Sega Hit Collection, about 70 or so games including all Total War games as far back as 'Rome' and Expansions/DLC for 88% off, plus a few of their old Sega Genesis and Megadrive classics. 49.99 Kwanzanian dorras.

So glad I didn't purchase Shogun 2 last week as I intended.

 

[Infinitron]

Heroes Pack costs more than each game individually today (75% off each game, 33% off pack)
