atmuh Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 http://store.steampowered.com/ this is my favorite time because EVERYTHING IS ON SALE ON STEAM and i cant resist sales so ill probably end up with ~50 more games after this is all said and done (and i wont play any of them) so what are YOU buying so far just defense grid for me Quote
atmuh Posted December 23, 2009 Author Posted December 23, 2009 i actually bought it during last years steam sale for $20 that was a great buy for that game and look its $20 again! http://store.steampowered.com/app/7200/ Quote
The Damned Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Hmmm, Mirror's Edge... never really thought about getting it, but for $5, I think i can swing it. If it's not my thing, then I spent less than burger combo at just about any fast food place. Oh noes, one less greasy burger with over/under-cooked fires. Quote
K.B. Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Holy fuck this is a good sale. I'm making a mental note of this for next year when I'll have a computer than can seamlessly run these games. Got my eye on you, IL-2 and Deus Ex. Quote
big giant circles Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Hmmm, Mirror's Edge... never really thought about getting it, but for $5, I think i can swing it. If it's not my thing, then I spent less than burger combo at just about any fast food place.Oh noes, one less greasy burger with over/under-cooked fires. It's got it's pros and cons, but it's well worth $5 just for the art style and music alone. The story is completely half-baked, but once you get used to the physics and handling, the game play is 'aight. I'm sure you've burned $5 in far worse ways I just bought a crap load of stuff including: -The Eidos Collector Pack (mainly for Arkham Asylum, which is on sale for $33.49 from the usual $50) but hey, the entire pack which contains 20 games which is normal $100 was only $50 for the whole thing, I figured I'd splurge. I'm sure there's some gems in there. -Star Wars Jedi Night Collection for $10 -Stalker for $2 -Borderlands DLC for like <$7 -Assassin's Creed for $10 -Painkiller Black for $5 I think that's it for now. I'm sure I'll buy more for their 1-day stuff before this is all over. HAWX is on my list, I'm just waiting to see if it goes well for one of the one day things. I might buy Ghostbusters too. I heard it's only kind of meh, but I like the movie, so we'll see. Quote
JadeAuto Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 I bought Mirror's Edge the last time it was on sale. Then bought Dragon Age for full price. This time, I'm getting Torchlight for $9.99 and Braid for $2.49. Good steals if I ever saw them. Quote
The Coop Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Ooooo... that Atari collection with the 10+ old arcade games for $5.09 sure looks nice. Quote
Dunnowhathuh Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Screw giving, I'm buying myself some games. Quote
Darth Lime Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 GTA IV for $7.49 Just thought I'd throw that out there. Quote
LuketheXjesse Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Screw giving, I'm buying myself some games. You, sir, are a true American. Quote
Sensai Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Braid for two and a half dollars? Absolutely for me. I think I'mma pick up Defense Grid or whatever for my dad...he absolutely loved Plants vs Zombies and I figure Defense Grid's the next logical step. Quote
Dhsu Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 My latest receipt: Lucasarts Adventure Bundle - $2.50 Complete Shooter Pack - $3.74 S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky (ROW) - $4.99 Rome: Total War Gold - $2.49 Indigo Prophecy - $3.39 Time Gentlemen, Please! and Ben There, Dan That! Double Pack - $2.49 Machinarium - $9.99 Grand Theft Auto IV (US/AU) - $7.49 Funny that the most expensive game on the list is an indie one. Quote
Level 99 Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 I might buy Ghostbusters too. I heard it's only kind of meh, but I like the movie, so we'll see. I found it was worth it for the story extension and voice-acting alone. It's a wonderful volume of Ghostbusters nerd-dom, even if the gameplay and direction can sometimes be a little uneven/predictable. I'm looking at the GTA4, Jedi Knight collection, and possibly HAWX myself. But...I dunno. Already have too much I don't play. This sale is ridiculous though. Quote
EdgeCrusher Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 I got Braid, Riddick Dark Athena, Ghostbusters, Atari 80 games in 1, Jedi Knight Collection, and the Borderlands DLC. 37 bucks well spent. edit: add Stalker Clear Sky to that. I had already got stalker the last cheap sale, so might as well pick this up too. Quote
Gollgagh Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 i actually bought it during last years steam sale for $20that was a great buy for that game and look its $20 again! http://store.steampowered.com/app/7200/ ooh, I think I'll get it then Quote
The Mutericator Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Broke and bought Trine for $8. Gonna get Overlord for my brother at $3, I think he'd like that. Quote
Schwaltzvald Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Broke and bought Trine for $8. Gonna get Overlord for my brother at $3, I think he'd like that. I got some games I can give away if you're interested... I'd send ya youtube vids of them to give ya an idea. PM me if you're interested. Quote
Hy Bound Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 LUCAS ARTS ADVENTURE PACK FOR TOO FITTY! I don't care what your relationship is with those games, but for TOO FITTY! its more than worth it. Also, STALKER for 1.99 is even more more than worth it. That game is hard but flippin' neat and scurry. Quote
DJMetal Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 Om nom nom Eidos collectors pack for 50. Arkham Asylum + hitman + others. I <3 steam. Quote
Zephyr Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 I think from now on I'll just not buy anything full price ever again, just wait for Christmas time. I'm still loving last years christmas deals! Quote
big giant circles Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 But...I dunno. Already have too much I don't play. This sale is ridiculous though. I understand what you're saying for sure! However, just think of it like I do. It's better to spend a little extra now, and stock up on a good variety for the year until next year's holiday sales I mean, seriously, this stuff would cost us hundreds of dollars if we bought it any other time. I did the math last night, and I bought about $332 worth of games for $83. I mean, that's like the cost of one new release and an expansion or something normally! Quote

I'll see if I give in when I get home today. Thankfully, most people in my family are aware that if they're gonna get me any presents, it's usually cash. Unmarked, nonsequential bills that have been laundered...which I will then use to purchase "goods and services". I'm eying that Borderlands discount very much... Quote
Nicole Adams Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 A friend of mine gifted me Beyond Good & Evil. I already have a hard copy, but I'd rather have a digital copy so I don't have to deal with discs. I'll probably pick up the Oddworld Pack for that same friend and me for five bucks total. I never played it when it came out. :\ I probably won't pick up anything else unless something catches my eye in the daily deals. Quote
