Powerlord Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I see you guys are hoping Valve considers "through January 2nd" to mean that the last sale day starts January 2nd. I will warn you, Valve can count that in either direction. "Through Sunday" almost always means through 10am PST Sunday. They are usually better when they name specific days, but don't be surprised if they opt not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Grabbed Super Meat Boy and Mass Effect 2. Not even going to look at the sale for the rest of the time because I don't have the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their Black Friday sale began its last day on the final mentioned date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tensei Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I was hoping i could get mass effect 2 on sale... i've played through it once but have been wanting to again (not for $30 though) Was a daily deal twice already. You missed it, plain and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZealPath Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Not that I had anything else on my list to buy, and have certainly bought enough already, I am a little surprised that there was no final epic EVERYTHING IS BACK day. Then again, just about everything has been brought back once already, so it's more just a "oh... that's it then huh?" kind of feeling. Final tally for me: Deus Ex Collection Half-Life: Source (should have waited to get this yesterday I guess, thankfully it was only a difference of $3.00 versus the 50% I bought it for and the 85% I could have gotten it for yesterday) Civilization V (gifted to my brother) F.E.A.R. Complete Pack Crysis Complete Amnesia: The Dark Descent Shatter Half-Life 1 Anthology (never played the expansions and they were 74 cents each, hard to say no to) Between all these and the additions of any of the Humble Indie Bundle (1&2) games that I didn't already have to my Steam list, my library has grown considerably in the last month. Now, to actually play some of these games.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderwild Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Does anyone have the PC port of Dead Space and have anything to say about its quality? I kind of want to get it but I've heard some really bad/mediocre things about it. My tally: Super Meat Boy VVVVV Machinarium Far Cry 2 (Bought it thinking it was Uncharted; not sure why) I still have STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl from last year. Is this game good? I remember trying to play it, it crashed immediately, and I forgot all about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of want to get it but I've heard some really bad/mediocre things about it. I own it, but it's still on my "To Play" list. Anyway, my final tally is: Super Meat Boy The OddBox Puzzle Quest The Sherlock Holmes Collection Blue Toad Murder Files Global Agenda I thought about getting Amnesia, but having played Penumbra Overture and not really finding it that fun, I decided to pass on it. I got Killing Floor in the previous sale, but you should buy it if you play computer FPS games, so you can join us with our two OCR KF servers!

Jaswald Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 aw shit. Killing Floor went on sale the first time, and I didn't buy it. After that it was still discounted for the holidays and I figured eh what the hell I'll get it. Now after I bought it, it goes on sale again! I want a refund!

Dissidia Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Ok so I got the indie beat pack. Had to get something Besides, I haven't bought any new games in forever. I thought I was the only one with a Marche avatar I feel for you Jaswald (if you change your avatar ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaswald Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 uh no. i've been using this avatar since '05. probably before you were even born. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 uh no. i've been using this avatar since '05. probably before you were even born. Speaking of icons, if the forum admins would ever add the 64x64 TF2 icons, I'd switch to the ubered RED Spy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissidia Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 uh no. i've been using this avatar since '05. probably before you were even born. I see, I'm assuming you like Final Fantasy tactics advance then! Hi-five! No? Too early? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaswald Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 yeah, FFTA was a pretty good game. I completed 290/300 missions but I didn't have a black thread somehow so I could never get 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeCrusher Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I picked up the Killing Floor DLC today, just to finish it off. Actually had more fun playing the game than when I tried it when it was first released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderwild Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 FFTA's AI was really bad. I had an Archer attack my character with 'Block Arrows' which gives a 100% to block any arrow attacks. It did it again the next turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did it again the next turn. There was also a battle where you could hit the lvl cap without much effort. Just took some time. But I still think FFTA is good overall. Better than FFXIII.
