Steam Holiday Sale '10 (That's all, folks - What'd you get?)

[Ifafudafi]

And so it ends.

Feel free to post your loot and total damage to your wallet.

[TeeKup]

Holy FUCK. I know what I'm doing for my brother. LoL.

[Amit]

Fucking treasure trove of deals. I bought 6 new games already. BC2 is on for $6.79 so BUY IT AND JOIN OUR PLATOON!

[TeeKup]

I COULD technically buy it and install it later when I have a better PC...

[Timo]

Hopefully the Vietnam expansion has a similar discount :o

[Amit]

Vietnam probably won't get a discount at all. I have friends who bought it and feel like they got gypped. They said that the content should be more like $5. I agree after jumping one of their accounts and playing for a few hours. There's just not enough there to justify paying $15 of your hard earned cash.

[n00b1n8R]

BF:BC2 for $6.79 USD? Why the fuck is it $13.60 AUD when $6.79 USD = $6.83 AUD :mad:

[Timo]

It's $13.60 here as well :\

[Limited]

BF:BC2 for $6.79 USD? Why the fuck is it $13.60 AUD when $6.79 USD = $6.83 AUD :mad:
Super Meat Boy is $3.75, which is £2.41. However on steam you have to pay £3.00..Fucking steam pissing over international people.

[ThePlague]

Trying to get BF: BC2. I love having people owe me money.

e: No go :( If anyone could loan me the money...? I'll purchase you something worth ~10 dollars at/after christmas.

Add pyongpwnzu on steam, I'm sure we can think of something :)

[MXC]

I'm broke. I waited all year for a good deal on Bad Company 2 and it finally popps up four days before I can get the money for it.

Son of an old, cancer-ridden horse-bitch.

[Cortexian]

I would gift it to a couple of you, but I only have enough for two and they're going to RL friends.

Sorry :(

[Mr Buckshot]

Dang, too bad I already own most of the games that interest me for this sale.

Anyway, picked up a few Indie games (Super meat boy and zombie driver are awesome), Batman GOTY, and FEAR complete.

What's the status of GTA4 PC version right now after all those patches? If they managed to unfuck the game reasonably, I might grab GTA4 too so I can finally start inserting real life cars into the game.

[Phobias]

Seems to run fine for me, even though I haven't tried multiplayer yet. SP is fun to mess around in.

[Rook]

Super Meat Boy: get spare pants ready.

[Timo]

eh I played the super meat boy trial on the 360, didn't enjoy the game one bit :/

[jcap]

E: Oh and don't forget all the massive publisher deals (25-50% off just about everything!)
Just about everything...except Black Ops.

Ya know, it's funny. It's the only game in the top sellers right now without ANY markdown (not even a mere 10%!). What does that say about Activision?

Was considering getting BFBC2, but idk if I would actually play it. I know it's really good, but those types of shooters have never really been up my alley. I still need to get L4D2.......... :|

[Cortexian]

Cool, had enough left in my PayPal to buy myself the SPECACT upgrade via Steam. Merry Christmas me!

[Amit]

Cool, had enough left in my PayPal to buy myself the SPECACT upgrade via Steam. Merry Christmas me!

I swear even you expressed severe disapproval of the SPECACT pricing.

[Cortexian]

Yea I did, but my plan was to gift 3 copies of BFBC2 and I was 5 cents short. So I got SPECACT with leftover money in my PayPal.

[Amit]

Why waste it on SPECACT when you could save that $5 for when you want to buy another game?

[Ifafudafi]

It's day 2: The Witcher for $5, RE5 for $10. BFBC2 is still 25% off ($15) if you want it but you'll be a little less rich now

Got damn I love PC gaming

[Limited]

Just bought Super Meat Boy.

[iizahsum]

WTF is going on in that picture Con?

[Amit]

Holy shit, I'm getting that. The demo was ridiculous.

[Ifafudafi]

Just Cause 2 for $7.50, Ass Creed 2 for $15 (DRM though, so you might want to stay away), Monkey Island Complete for $17.50, and Call of Duty 4 for $15.

[Syuusuke]

[Amit]

I can't believe people bitch about steam being shit. Fuck them. They can go buy games for full retail pricing while I'm enjoying every second of these deals. Ahh, COD4 finally less than $30. After what? Over 2 years? Fucking Activision fuckers.

[Rook]

MW2 - $59.99
Black Ops - $59.99

[iizahsum]

It was on sale a couple months ago for like 15 bucks and it included every CoD but MW2.... Infact CoD 4 is always goes on sale when steam has big season sales.

[Ifafudafi]

hey so Mass Effect 1 and 2 are $10 each, if you're one of the four people who haven't played these yet do it now gogogo

the rest of the selection is pretty eh though, mabye Deathspank's up your alley but other than that

[Limited]

hey so Mass Effect 1 and 2 are $10 each, if you're one of the four people who haven't played these yet do it now gogogo.
Guilty! I'm really not a fan of RPG games though, do you think it will still appeal to me, it has FPS elements right?

[iizahsum]

Back to the futures is like $2 cheaper :p

Also Metro 2033 is about $10 cheaper and it is a great game.

[ejburke]

I would buy the ME games again on PC, but I'm too invested in the DLC on Xbox to make the switch. That disc swap in the middle of ME2 360 and again at the very end really grinds my gears, though.

[n00b1n8R]

Got ME2 for the US price (50% the australian, fucking bioware!). Thanks CN#### !

[Timo]

Overlord for $1.50? oh hells yeah.

[NullZero]

Tbh, nothing much to pick up here today. Looking forward to tomorrows.

[iizahsum]

Is the Ghost Recon page using MW2 characters for advertising?

[NullZero]

Is the Ghost Recon page using MW2 characters for advertising?
Heh, it does look like Soap doesn't it? :O

[Ifafudafi]

yeah you heard 'em, it's a fairly paltry offering this time; you can get Borderlands + all DLC for $25 bucks and BF2 for $5, or maybe you're into Torchlight which is $5

with tomorrow being the big day I'm expecting some serious hooplah

[iizahsum]

Heh, it does look like Soap doesn't it? :O

It's Soap and probably roach you can tell by the way the uniforms and the weapons look. I don't get why a game that has some of the most bad ass looking soldiers would use ones from MW2.

Edit: heres the original picture as well http://i.ytimg.com/vi/12fQdok1NEI/0.jpg

[ThePlague]

Overlord looked pretty cool, and it's only $3 for the whole pack.

[Amit]

I scooped up the BF2 Complete Pack. Too good not to pick it up again for that price.

Also, I think they fixed the GR vs MW2 graphics mishap. I don't see it on any of the GR games pages.

Is MW2 possibly going on sale? I doubt it but it just seems weird.

I was thinking about picking up the BF2 pack but I just bought BFBC2 when its was $6 and that should keep me busy for awhile.

Don't know if it's because I haven't cleared my cache, but GR page (page 10 on steam index flash deal page) still shows Soap.

Oh snap I didn't look through that haha! Yeah it's still there!

[Bodzilla]

Bought overlord.

Please tell me it's like dungeon keeper and i can build massive torture chambers for scantily clad misstress's of torment :fingersrossed:

Got i miss that game :(

[Amit]

Overlord is a game where you send your cutesy minions to do your evil for you.

[Bodzilla]

yes, but what of the scantilly clad mistress's that are only happy if you build them extensive torture chambers. what of the horned reapers????

WHAT!??

[Bodzilla]

just checked out some gameplay footage



AHHHH CUNT FUCKS

i gotta get me some dungeon keeper goodness

[NullZero]

Shame it's only a 16+. Imagine the kinky stuff they could have added if they upped the age rating :horny:

Also, Six hours =]

[iizahsum]

Hey I was right MW2 went on sale.

Double edit, Wow todays sale is.... bad. Bat Man is probably the best sale :/

[NullZero]

Eh, Batman Arkum Asylum is really the only interesting one.
Dragon Age: Origins, maybe.
Red faction is quite cheap, might pick it up just to say I've played it.
Quite a big reduction on Flatout, though racing games are not my cup of tea.

[iizahsum]

Is dragon age worth it?

NVM doesn't look like its my kind of game.

[Ifafudafi]

Oh here's some big names

damn I may have to finally plonk down for dragon age, also too bad MW2 sucks on PC

[Rook]

http://store.steampowered.com/app/47810/

$25 dollars for the game and all the DLC that priced around ~$100 individually. Damn good game and if you pass up this deal you're insane.

With that said I got the awakening expansion that I didn't have a few days ago and it's good so far. I wouldn't say better than the core game but it expands past what happened end game without screwing up the story, and is 20-30 hours of game play itself.


Oh here's some big names

damn I may have to finally plonk down for dragon age, also too bad MW2 sucks on PC

I'm not sure why people go around saying the PC version sucks because the only change to the PC version is their shit p2p system essentially making it the same level of shittyness as its console counterparts. Difference being you get your mouse and keyboard for an FPS which would make it superior no? Also HDRs if you're into that junk.



Double edit, Wow todays sale is.... bad. Bat Man is probably the best sale :/
I don't even know what to say.

[ejburke]

Double Agent is the only Splinter Cell I don't have, but I don't know. Ubisoft games on PC....

I already have Batman. It's okay. Games that employ Metroid-style power-up/exploration mechanics are like actors that play retards in films -- they just do it to get the critics on their side and it ALWAYS works.

I already have Dragon Age and its expansions and I did pay over $100 for it.

Pondering Red Faction. I always thought I would get that on 360.

[ThePlague]

Anyone else think Overlord seems a lot like Pikmin for Gamecube? It's a really fun game.

[NullZero]

Deals are just a round up of previous ones (possibly their best sellers?).

[Ifafudafi]

yep it's an encore, so if you haven't bought Meat Boy/BFBC2/Mass Effect, do so now

[InnerGoat]

Interested in BF2:BC but my SSD is basically full of steam games already. Welp.

[Cortexian]

BF:BC2*

[InnerGoat]

Yeah that!

Can Steam install games in multiple locations by any chance? :-3

[Bodzilla]

as far as i know it can.

think of it like wow, you just log into your account. it doesnt matter what system it's on.

just theres some fail from publishers on install limits ect though so watch out for that shit

could be wrong though

[Rook]

Yeah that!

Can Steam install games in multiple locations by any chance? :-3

http://www.traynier.com/software/steammover

Was reading up on this the other day, might have to squeeze enough room to install the game then move it over. Apparently it works decently though.

[PlasbianX]

Purchased meatboy and BF:BC2.

[cheezdue]

I bought BF:BC2 and Flatout: Ultimate Carnage.

[Ifafudafi]

Well today's lineup doesn't have many heavy-hitters (guess they've run out by now)

If you're the one person that hasn't played KotOR yet then do it now; you might get a kick out of Serious Sam if you love old school shootan' too

[iizahsum]

I'm probably gonna pick up KOTOR just because, and the killing floor. Lost Planet 2 does look interesting though.

[ThePlague]

I bought KoTOR yesterday thinking it wasn't going to go on sale :\

[PlasbianX]

BF:BC2 doesn't run on my laptop. What a shame. Hopefully it'll run on my PC. Will try that tomorrow!

Question though. I noticed a few games that I don't EVER remember purchasing in my steam library...
Where did:
-Mare Nostrum
-Red Orchestra: Osfront 41-45
-Darkest Hour: Europe '44-'45
come from? I don't remember having these.

[n00b1n8R]

Who the hell is buying games that arn't on daily sales. I'm going to get X3: Terran Conflict and Hitman: Blood Money but I'm waiting till the final day.
Also, I've been itching for a fighting game lately, is Street Fighter IV on PC any good? I was thinking more along the lines of an xbox one but at this price...

[Amit]

-Red Orchestra: Osfront 41-45
-Darkest Hour: Europe '44-'45
come from? I don't remember having these.

Facebook group gave free codes. I got 3 and gave 2 away.

[PlasbianX]

Facebook group gave free codes. I got 3 and gave 2 away.

OH I do remember that now!

[Ifafudafi]

Crysis and Doom are today's big ones; get Crysis + Warhead for $10 or everything Doom for $8.74

[iizahsum]

Might get Crysis. Really interested in Section 8, is it fun at all?

[PlasbianX]

Might get Crysis. Really interested in Section 8, is it fun at all?

IGN gave it an 8, gametrailers gave it a 6.8 (8.4 user). I personally thought the demo on XBL was rather bad. Felt like a bad example of a futuristic version of a Battlefield game clone.

If ya have an xbox, try the demo out first or look up some reviews. I wouldnt personally recommend it though.

[iizahsum]

Yeah I've watched some game play and read some reviews and it looks pretty bad. Going to go with crysis.

[Cortexian]

Section 8 isn't worth it. Battlefield 2142 is basically the same thing, only better.

[ejburke]

Going back and forth on the Crysis pack. Leaning against.

[iizahsum]

Crysis actually has a great story behind it if you like single player gaming, the multi players pretty dead though.

[ejburke]

I was only considering them as single-player games. I just don't think I'm going to like playing them. I have Far Cry and find Crytek's brand of sandbox-style combat experience to be too undirected. ONce you engage the enemy, the battles tended not to unfold in any interesting way. The scenarios devolve, rather than evolve.

I picked up Bad Company 2 last week and absolutely hated that campaign, but the real reason I bought that was multiplayer. I'm extra-leary of feeling committed to another single-player experience that I have to force myself to finish.

Also, my computer is a few years old and I would play these games in a compromised state. And what ever happened to the whole "number of activations" issue? Was that resolved?

[iizahsum]

Well Crysis is a lot less sandboxy and a little more straight forward. The first couple missions feel kind of like the Battlefield campaign, your just going through the motions. Go here do this, then shoot that throw in a vehicle to "spice" things up, but theirs also a sense from the beginning that a sort of suspense and mystery to the game surrounding the story, and once you get about an hour or 2 into the campaign it really picks up and just becomes a whole shit tons of fun.


And I played through it on a laptop, just had to use a low resolution (which sucked) but the game is extremely pretty even on lower resolutions. Lower settings also makes animals not show up, and you can't destroy certain things but those things only really matter on the first couple levels.

Edit- and it still uses SecRom sadly.

[ejburke]

I think I'm going to hold off. Maybe next year they'll have a pack with these two plus Crysis 2 for some absurd price.

[Ifafudafi]

looks like that's the end of the daily discounts; all the publisher packs/non-daily offerings should still be there until Sunday

E: Nvm Steam is slow. Dead Space for $6.80 (not nearly as scary as it thinks it is but fun action title), Amnesia for $6.80 (definitely as scary as it thinks it is), and everything Quake (not including Q4, hurr Activision) for $10.20.

[ejburke]

might get the BIA pack. Never got around to them.

[Amit]

I reinstalled Hell's Highway today and I'm playing through it right now. Such a good game. I liked the story line of the first two games but I absolutely hate the movement of the character. Not to mention, even when aiming down the sights you can't hit shit at point blank range. Hell's Highway remedied most of that.

[Ifafudafi]

Hey look Oblivion + all expansions for $10

Or you can go for Transformers: WfC (which is pretty cool) for $20 or L4D2 (do you really not own this yet) for $6.80

[ejburke]

L4D2 would have to get down to $4.99 for me to consider it. I just don't get that series. From what I've played, I derive no enjoyment from slaughtering endless paper mache zombies and then getting ambushed by cheap special infected. It doesn't help that I never bought into the zombie meme.

What's up with Oblivion GOTY vs Oblivion GOTY Deluxe?

[PlasbianX]

What's up with Oblivion GOTY vs Oblivion GOTY Deluxe?

"The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition Deluxe includes Knights of the Nine and the Shivering Isles expansions plus Fighter's Stronghold Expansion, Spell Tome Treasures, Vile Lair, Mehrune's Razor and much more."

For the few extra dollars, im just getting deluxe. Those were all paid for (1 of 2 might of been free) DLC's when it was on the 360. Got myself Oblivion (even though I had it on 360) and Amnesia. No more spending for me though, i need my $$$ lol.

[ejburke]

Yeah, I was more asking what all that extra stuff was and if it was worth anything. It turns out that they had OblivionGOTY and GOTY Deluxe for $6.79 and $8.49 respectively around the time of QuakeCon, so I'm just going to wait for that deal to roll around again. I do want to pick it up before SkyRim comes out, though. I skipped Oblivion after being a Morrowind addict for the better part of a summer.

[RedBaron]

I'VE FOUGHT MUDCRABS MORE FEARSOME THAN YOU!

Would so buy it if I didn't already own it. Still needs to beat shivering isles though, that's the best part I hear.

If memory serves me correctly, each of these were 400 MS points when they were released on the xbox, but I could of sworn atleast one or 2 were free. In my opinion, its worth it.

Easily a $50 game you should feel bad.

[Cagerrin]

a $50
No such thing.

[NullZero]

Today's line-up look pretty good.

Got nope.avi on sale there if you haven't already!(?)
Farcry 2 under $5
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. collection under $5
C&C3: Red Alert 3 there (though it is no AoE :sadface: )

[Ifafudafi]

Yeah don't forget the Jedi Knight collection; all the dark forces games are pretty sweet although JKII is the best imho (if you just want that it's only $2.50)

[MXC]

Ha, Command & Conquer 3 is $7.50, while Red Alert 3(sitting on my 'worst game I've ever played' chair) and Command & Conquer 4 are $5.

[Ifafudafi]

Today it's a bunch of high-profile games that wish they were good (the new Medal of Honor, Mafia II, and new Bionic Commando)

On the other hand Zeno Clash and AAAA are pretty cool indie titles and Half-Life singlehandedly revolutionized the entire FPS genre back in '98 (the sequel's pretty neat too, also mods)

How's Blue Shift and Opposing Force? They any good?

[Ifafudafi]

Opposing Force is pretty good (and the protagonist is something of a meme now) but Blue Shift's kind of meh

They're basically just more Half-Life

[ejburke]

I got Bionic Commando for 360 at Amazon for $10. It would have been a good game if not for the bullshit checkpointing. They give you probably the best grapple mechanic that's been in a game, but you're too afraid of falling into a pit to have any fun using it. I found myself inching along, playing super-conservatively, instead of letting it hang loose and going full-on Tarzan. The checkpoint guy pretty much singel-handedly ruined this game and caused Grin to shut down. I hope he feels swell about it.

Looks like my pondered purchase of the day will be the Company of Heroes offerings. Isn't that game, like, free now?

[iizahsum]

I bought the Half-Life pack, Plus I owned L4D2 so I got like an extra 10% off :D

The only one from the pack I haven't played is Ep. 2 though.

[MXC]

I would buy Episode 2, but having already beaten it once on the 360, that's not exactly the story I'd like to experience twice. It's way too good to be ruined with a second viewing for me.

I actually bought the pack for the originals since I lost my CD versions of them. I've also been craving a trip down memory lane, Just need the original crash bandacoots to come to PC now *sigh*...

[n00b1n8R]

So is this the final day of sales? It's already the 2nd here but IDK if the US has caught up to the present yet.

[Timo]

There's one more day I think

[n00b1n8R]

Still waiting for the obligatory X3 sale!
Glad I held off on buying Hitman in case it came on sale too (suckers!)

[Limited]

Ha a game my friend help make has 33% off.

[Ifafudafi]

Last chance to buy anything; gogogo

As for the specials, it's the weeks top sellers; Amnesia, L4D2, GTAIV + expansions, and Dead Space look like today's big ones

[Bodzilla]

Is hitman worth it? like i remember it being a cool game and i saw the movie the other day (it was wykd syk) but how has it aged? still worth playing?

[n00b1n8R]

Bought BM when it was on sale the other day, been itching to play it for months now.

[TeeKup]

Is this still going on tomorrow? I don't have any money damnit.

[Phobias]

Is this still going on tomorrow? I don't have any money damnit.

What are you after?

Also n00b, don't buy X3. It's shit.

[TeeKup]

The Stalker Pack. D:

[Phobias]

Not sure if the sale is going to be still on tomorrow so how about this; I buy the bundle for you today and tomorrow (or whenever you have the money) you buy me Zen Bound 2 http://store.steampowered.com/app/61600/ (works out at the same price after the sale is done). If it reverts back to a higher price then don't worry.

Sound like a plan?

[ejburke]

Total damage: just under $30 for 5 games + 2 expansions. I try to be picky when it comes to Steam. It's almost insidious the way they tempt you to part with small amounts of money for things you have no time and little inclination to actually play.

[ThePlague]

Total of mine comes to 39.76. Not bad, considering I got 10 games (Also bought one for Pyong, and he traded me for BC2 <3).

Sure that works. Steam allows you to gift things to your friends right? (Haven't really meddled with steam too much lately, too much Vegas <--)

[Ifafudafi]

Just under $15 - Meat Boy and BFBC2. I already owned most everything else (some for shitbox360 admittedly) and didn't want the rest, but damn this is why I love Valve.

[n00b1n8R]

Got gifted BC2, bought ME2, SMB, Hitman: BM, X3:TC
E: $27.50 AUD

[Timo]

I picked up Dead Space and AC2. Pretty average sale really :\

[iizahsum]

BC2, and the Half Life pack. Just under 15 dollars as well.

Sure that works. Steam allows you to gift things to your friends right? (Haven't really meddled with steam too much lately, too much Vegas <--)

Sales over sorry mate, you can only gift things to people the as you purchase them (it asks if you want to buy it for yourself or as a gift). I couldn't gift it to you because you aren't on my friends list. I did add you and tried to send it, but it wouldn't go through because you hadn't confirmed it or something.

Edit: if you still want it it'd probably cost like $30-40 or so for all 3. (shadow, clear sky and call of pripiwhatever it is)

I own Stalker Clear Sky on my Direct2Drive account, I can send you the info for it if you wanna see if you can DL it.

Yeah I'll just pick it up myself, 40$ isn't really that bad. Thanks for the notion though.
