The Damned Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Borderlands 2 twice (one for my bro), as well as Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep If you're playing Borderlands 2 and TTAODK, you might as well get all four DLCs. The Torgue campaign alone is worth it for a high level Double Penetrating Unkempt Harold. It's a pistol that shoots 14 explosive bullets in two horizontal lines. It's one of the most powerful handguns in the game, if not the most powerful. Seriously, it does over 112000 damage with a direct hit. Quote
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 So this sale has me hooked. So far I've grabbed Bioshock Infinite Skyrim Torchlight II Castle Crashers Dark Souls Sim City 4 Super Street Fighter IV AE with costume DLC RPG Maker VX Ace and a few gifts for other friends. Damn, my poor wallet. Quote
Flash Strife Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 So far I've grabbed NOTHING. Gots no money. Quote
Mirby Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 got gifted Castle Crashers Fez Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe Bastion (with soundtrack!) and got myself Half Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax Ultimate Boy (had the original on PSP, so fun so good so funny) Castle Crashers DLC Quote
Melbu Frahma Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Broke from buying a house two weeks ago myself, but I still managed to snag: Thomas Was Alone Knights of the Old Republic Magicka Bought and gifted: Bastion So far, out of my three new games for myself, I've only tried Magicka, which apparently my laptop is too slow to run (whoops), but I've being eager to play KoTOR since I enjoyed the second one so much, and Thomas Was Alone seems like it'll be a fun, humorous little puzzle platformer, so I'm pretty content.

DmC: Devil May Cry (ROW) Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gold DLC Only Reus Castle Crashers 4-pack Dust: An Elysian Tail Kerbal Space Program Fallout New Vegas: Gun Runners' Arsenal Fallout New Vegas: Lonesome Road DLC Fallout New Vegas: Old World Blues DLC Fallout New Vegas: Courier's Stash Blood Bowl: Chaos Edition FTL: Faster Than Light Ys I and II Chronicles Bully: Scholarship Edition XCOM Enemy Unknown (ROW) Just Cause 2 Bit.Trip.Runner 2 + Soundtrack + Good Friends Character Pack Scribblenauts Unlimited Skyrim Hearthfire Skyrim - Dawnguard Quote
Fureddi Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 And here's me with just Fallout NV with all the add-ons (despite owning NV on ps3 already)... I spend money on random crap outside of gaming far to easily... Quote
Annie Felis Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Glad I had some money left that I was willing to spend, because the Baldur's Gate remake is $5 today. Go get it, it's a classic. Quote
SirChadlyOC Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Looks like I got...(stuff) Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gold DLC Only I almost bought "Gods and Kings" expansion for $7.50, but then I noticed that it was included in this Gold DLC Only pack for $5. I saved $2.50 and also got Korea, Wonders and another expansion I didn't have yet. Quote
Lyrai Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 If you're buying Civ 5, yes, get the Gold Upgrade. It includes every DLC except Brave New World, the new one. Quote
Kanthos Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Anyone have some extra cards to trade? I need: Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, Skyrim, and Torchlight II Extras I have: 3x Bioshock Infinite, 2x Kerbal Space Program, 3x Prison Architect, 2x Tomb Raider Once I get the three I'm missing, I'm happy to give my other extras away to anyone who wants them. Send me a message here, or [OCR] Kanthos on Steam. My haul: Age of Empires II HD Assassin's Creed III Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition Civilization V: Brave New World Eador: Masters of the Broken World Street Fighter x Tekken Quote
Fureddi Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Shame that my payday isn't until Thursday and I just borrowed £100 to spend on bits at the War and Peace Revival... Priorities, priorities... Quote
relyanCe Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Grabbed Strike Suit Mega Bundle for 6 bucks looks like tits Quote
Brandon Strader Posted July 20, 2013 Author Posted July 20, 2013 Rexy gifted me Assassin's Creed III because she's awesome Quote
The Coop Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Not a big haul, but... Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition Deadlight: Soundtrack Edition Ether Vapor Remaster Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition Steel Storm: Burning Retribution Titan Attacks Torchlight II Not bad for $32. I almost bought Tomb Raider, since my old rig might actually be able to run it decently, but $12.49 just wasn't in the cards by the time it went on flash sale last night. Strike Suit Zero would have been nice, but it doesn't run on XP, so I'm SOL there. I also broke down and bought Sine Mora, a funky little shmup from Greenmangaming (which gave me a Steam code)... two days before it went on sale on Steam for $2.49. The game's good and worth what I paid, but still, that was just mean. Quote
Wiesty Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Are Steams out of the blue price changes starting to bug anyone else? Seeing games advertised at a price lasting until the end of the sale and buying them only to have them drop another 50% the next day kind of punishes customers for buying now instead of later. That being said, this sale has been insanely good. Quote
Kenogu Labz Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 It's not punishing. Anyone who's used Steam for a while knows that's how they operate, and therefore must decide to either take a risk and buy now or wait until they're sure they can get it at a lower price. Conversely, seeing a game you weren't looking for show up at a lower price is more likely to trigger an impulse purchase. All this is multiplied ten-fold when they're running a major sale like they are now. Pick up a game now, or risk it going off sale entirely? That's something the consumer knows about and has to consider before purchasing. Annoying? Occasionally, but it's far better than getting no deals at all. In the end, it's up to each person's level of risk tolerance to decide. Quote
DarkeSword Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Are Steams out of the blue price changes starting to bug anyone else? Seeing games advertised at a price lasting until the end of the sale and buying them only to have them drop another 50% the next day kind of punishes customers for buying now instead of later. That being said, this sale has been insanely good. First rule of the Steam Sale: Never buy anything that isn't a Daily Deal, Flash Sale, or Community Pick until the very last day of the sale. Quote
Flash Strife Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Probably not gonna happen but a sale on Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara would be awesome. And here's hoping Ys 1 & 2 goes for $5 again. Quote
Annie Felis Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 First rule of the Steam Sale: Never buy anything that isn't a Daily Deal, Flash Sale, or Community Pick until the very last day of the sale. Second Rule: never buy any game on your wishlist during the Steam Sale unless it's discounted more than 60%. Steam randomly puts things on sale throughout the year and you may be able to pick it up again at another date, and they usually do 50-75% off when they do that. Meanwhile during the sale every last item on your wishlist will be 20% or 40% off because pretty much every damn game is on sale for that much. Quote
Rexy Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 So my haul of the sale ended up being Scribblenauts Unlimited, Evoland (which I already finished......), ASRT and RPG Maker VX ACE. Brandon also gifted me To The Moon near the start of the sale as well. Not a bad run this Summer =) Quote
Jandalf Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Damn, that was an expensive week! All those reduced prices do really stack up... Here's my basket: * The elder Scolls 5: Skyrim Legendary Edition * Psychonauts * Borderland 2 Season Pass * Saints Row 3: The full package * Fallout 3 GOTY * Fallout New Negas GOTY * Mirror's Edge * The elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion GOTY Deluxe All in all that is more than 90 USD in games. That will have to do 'til Winter (when the next sale will be) Cheers, Jandalf Quote
Native Jovian Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) My damage: Saint's Row the Third: The Full Package + Unlockable Pack ($7.98 ) System Shock 2 ($2.49) Dishonored ($10.19) Monaco ($7.44) Terraria ($2.49) Total: $30.59 I'm also thinking about picking up Rogue Legacy, but it's only 20% off -- it'll probably be on sale again, for less, before I actually get around to playing it. So yeah, basically what The Damned said. I didn't get nearly as much as I have in sales past, but that's probably a good thing, overall. Edited July 21, 2013 by Native Jovian Quote
