KyleJCrb Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Bastion is pretty much one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. Quote
Dhsu Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I recommend Auditorium to anyone who hasn't picked it up! Also I am officially $365.73 poorer than I was before the sale. $50.90 of that was gifts. $89.75 of that was from this morning when I went through my wish list and bought 25 games that were on sale. Quote
Darklink42 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Well, as a last farewell to the sale (and on the recommendations of several of you) I picked up both Ys: Origins and Legend of Grimrock. Not regretting it at all. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I wanted Ys Origin but now the sale is over and I missed it. Sent from my phone. Quote
Annie Felis Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I spent $61 and got seventeen games, so I wound up getting a whole bunch for the cost of one brand-new game. I missed buying Trine 2, but there'll be other sales. I tried the Steam calculator site, but it's not listing any of the games I've bought (maybe because I haven't played them all yet?). So I'm unsure of how much money I saved. Quote
Level 99 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Now that the sales are over, I feel a breath of relief coming. And yet, I feel empty. As though I should have spent more money but I didn't. I got some games but...what about the games I left behind? STEAM, WHY YOU TOY WITH MY EMOTIONS Quote
Penfold Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I ended up buying a number of games that I wouldn't have if not for the sale. Interested to start Bastion. Quote
Flash Strife Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Spent a total of $88.99 on the sale. Not supposed to be spending ANY money but there were a bunch of games I wanted or wanted to try so it's worth it. http://www.steamcalculator.com/id/FlashStrife Quote
The Author Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 First steam sale with a job... it was brutal. I got Fallout New Vegas, Train Simulator 2012 (don't ask) and a bunch of indy games out of it. I think the final tally was 60$ Quote
big giant circles Posted July 24, 2012 Author Posted July 24, 2012 All together I bought: World of Goo Tobe's Vertical Adventure CoD: MW3 Rayman Originals Solar 2 Indie Bundle 2 Terraria 4 pack BOI Wrath of the Lamb Tomb Raider Anniv Alan Wake Alan Wake DLC Vessel Skyrim RF: Guerrilla Dear Esther + OST CoD: Black Ops UT3 gift Torchlight gift Just Cause 2 gift UT3 gift NFS: Hot Pursuit DA:O Ultimate Thief Bundle Krater Collector Ed Beyond Good & Evil Nexuiz 4 pack Civ IV F3AR Crysis 2 RO2 Driver: SF Garry's Mod I went a little nuts.

BardicKnowledge Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 I got out pretty cheaply this summer; got only the Arkham City DLC and the Binding of Issac DLC -- an academic colleague bought me RAGE, which was nice. Quote
Unstable Hamster Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 So what's the daily deal after this past week? Jade Empire. It's 3.75, and it's what pushed me over 100 dollars. Well played steam, well played. Quote

RAGE is great. Looks amazing, and fantastic animations. But holy dang did they run out of money. It's the most unsatisfying ending I have ever experienced in any game EVER. You've been warned. So just enjoy the gameplay while it lasts. Quote
Dhsu Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Wingless blew their entire budget on drugs and expensive prostitutes. Quote
Flash Strife Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Meaning he spent it all on a life sized Samus Aran display so that he can snort a line of coke off of. One Girl in All the World indeed. =P Quote

I mean, to call it an ending doesn't even feel right. It's more like "the place where the game just sort of stops unexpectedly." Quote

If any game pulls this crap on me again... -the ending boss fight stops at 11:30, ending is the next 20 seconds. Don't watch if you might want to play sudeki at some point. This kinda spoils the game, but not really. If you're saying Rage is worse than that I gotta play it! Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Rage is on the bottom of my backlog -- I'll get there eventually though Quote

Except at least you got a proper end boss fight in Sudeki. Quote
Dhsu Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Welp it looks like FireSlash has us all beat. Had no idea he was a Valve employee. Quote
Flash Strife Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Bet he's played like maybe 10% of that list, if that. That's a whole lotta games. =P Quote
Darklink42 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Well, if anyone missed Ys: Oath in Felghana and is still interested, it's the daily deal on Steam at the same price it was up for during the flash sales. Also Fireslash: WHAA?...DAAAMMM! Quote
DJLionheart Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Thank heavens the madness is over. . . *Gulp* My wallet just gave a sigh of relief. Quote
