Steam Sale Begins Today 1pm est - GAME OVER :(

[totalnoob]

The Ball is definitely worth it if you enjoyed games like Portal. I also highly recommend Amnesia..one of the best horror games ever. The main page says it's $6.80 but it's actually showing up as $4.80 now!

[tedrodai]

It's $4.80 if you own any Penumbra games or something like that; otherwise it's $6.80.

Agreed :-\

 

[Graxe]

I have to agree on not so great deals. Oblivion is very solid, but its been discounted a number of times already. I might get Grand Ages Rome, it looks interesting.

Star Trek Online was supposed to be fairly horrible, right?

 

[Craig234]

Shatter is great for $2.50.

Star Trek Online, well, you can try it pretty cheaply.

My opinion, it's repetitive limited gameplay, but nicely produced in terms of some pretty graphics, nice music, etc.

 

[Mitch101]

Nice break for my wallet today. Save it for tomorrows sale. So far ive got everything I wanted except maybe a C&C pack but if it doesn't go on sale I'll take the current discount on the last day.

 

[SaDiZTiKStyLeZ]

I'd get Oblivion if it were -75%. I've had the game since release, before extra stuff was released for it, just not really a high priority to go out of my way for the extras.
Didn't get around to finishing game either, after I had rebuilt computer halfway through game, and forgetting to back up my save.

Someone said GTA IV complete is two separate installs & re-writes over your current copy of GTA IV if you already own it. So you can't gift it.

So could you gift it to another e-mail address then in steam goto manage gifts and send the copy of Episodes to yourself and GTA IV to a friend?

Only certain Steam games can be gifted. They have it in the Steam FAQ on their website which can and can't.

 

[Fenixgoon]

anyone know how the transformers game is?

 

[nyker96]

anyone know how the transformers game is?

yes, I'm a fan so bought it when it came out, in terms of a movie tied in game, it's quite decent but overall not a game of the year material. You'd probably like it if you are a fan of the series. I love it simply cause you can xform back and forth easily and the fact that I can fight giants like Omega Supreme is a treat. But if you are not a fan of the series you best save your cash for a truly great game like Batman Akram Asylum.

 

[Pollock]

I thought Shatter was pretty funny - got it in an indie bundle earlier for $5. Otherwise, nothing much that interests me or that I don't have already. Star Trek Online was pretty mediocre, IMO.

I had GTA IV and bought Complete during today's sale.

GTA IV seems to be unchanged and now there is a separate Game called "GTA...EPisodes..."

I'll launch it later and tell you what happened

 

[NeoV]

is Singularity any good?

I'm tempted on that and Transformers..

 

[ImpulsE69]

is Singularity any good?

I'm tempted on that and Transformers..

Singularity is good, but no MP and not a very long game, so I don't think it's worth the 24.99 they want for it.

 

[YBS1]

is Singularity any good?

I'm tempted on that and Transformers..

Think of a cross between Metro 2033 and Bioshock, that will give you a good idea of what Singularity is like. It's not as good as either, nor as long a campaign, but that is pretty close to what it is like. Twenty minutes left to get in on that deal.

 

[gothamhunter]

Today deals?

 

[SaDiZTiKStyLeZ]

Got S.T.A.L.K.E.R. bundle & Star Wars Jedi Knight Collection. Been waiting long time to play the former, since I heard they patched up majority of the game-breaking bugs.
Was hoping they would have put a <$5.00 deal on Lego Star Wars, like they did for Lego Batman.

 

[billbillw]

FarCry2 for $5
STALKER bundle for $5
Hitman series $7.50

Does anyone know if STEAM takes retail game keys? I see they give a discount for Empire:TW if u already own Rome or Medieval. I have BOTH, but these are boxed versions.
Steam wont take my keys though... : (

I am def jumping on the Theatre of War deal. The most amazing deal so far...

Steam does take retail keys but only for a limited # of games. Here's the list of supported games: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7480-WUSF-3601

Does farcry 2 have coop or a good coop mod?
