I'd like Mortal Kombat any chance it goes on sale?

mORTAL kOMBAT cOLLECTION IS HALF OFF @ $4.99

The Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection, contains all three classic games (Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat 2 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3) available for download. All three games are complete versions of their original and can now be played online. Three iconic fighting games rolled into one hard-hitting, downloadable package.

I just bought it about a half hour ago for $6.74...checked my receipt to make sure. Strange things are happening.
Sometimes they mess up (or back pedal?) on deals, and change them to the correct amount, if you bought the game before they do it they honor the original price.
 
Its current price is as low as it has ever been. So you probably won't beat it for some time.

Yeah... some of the games have steep discounts, but other games (e.g. Call of Duty) just don't drop for squat. Usually, you can find a cheaper deal elsewhere and put it on Steam, but with a bunch of companies making their own PC-based front-end (i.e. uPlay for Far Cry 3), that's becoming harder to do.

I'm tempted to get Far Cry 3 as I don't own it, but I would certainly love a better discount.

Yeah, looks like they changed it from 55% off to 40% off.

I was lucky enough to snag it when it was 55% off.
 
In which case I will hand my Steam account down to my children and they will finish what I started. It'll be part of my written will. :twisted:

It occurs to me that this could conceivably be against the Steam Subscriber Agreement. Although I very much doubt that the issue would ever be prosecuted, I wonder what the letter of the agreement says.

It is against the EULA but it is also something they wouldn't pursue and more than likely never know about either.

I told my best friend he can have my account if I die lol.

So, all signals go for a backlog lasting into the next life, then?
 
Some people make their children becomes doctors, lawyers, dancers to do something they wanted to accomplish in life.

AT makes its kids finish playing through their Steam gaming backlog 🙂

You realize he's now plotting against you, right? :biggrin:
 
Is it just me or is it more fun to talk about/anticipate the new sales than to actually play the fucking games? lol
 
He should have led with that he thinks the Civ 5 DLC should be 66% off 2 days after it was released (in NA, it released for the rest of the world today).

To be fair the DLC is really making the game complete since vanilla Civ 5 sucked without the DLCs IMO. $30 for a DLC that fixes flaws/adds crucial elements that should have been in the original game makes it a pretty ridiculous price....which even the devs are aware of apparently since they gave it the green light for Steam summer sale on its release date. Can't believe people paid full price for it. Suckers born every minute.
 
BTW, if anyone wants to add me to their Steam friends list, I only have 1 friend so...my name on there is chalmers

Well if there is an afterlife I at least know I'm set!

Damn straight, they need to play the awesomeness of what will be old school by that time 😛

That's the free game with every sale 😀
 
Thanks, I figured as much. So it's a question of whether I want to sell them, or if I want to try and get all of them and craft a fancy Foil badge. :hmm:

To get a foil badge you most likely will have to either trade for or buy the foil cards.
