A gamers best friend and worst enemy

[Zeonix]

What don't you own that you'd be interested in?

I think I'm interested in a lot actually, it's just that I'm a bit hesitant because I'm usually more on my laptop than on my gaming rig. So I'm always looking to find games that are cheap, fun and playable on a Macbook Air. So that kind of thing really limits me and therefore I usually don't play AAA titles even though I would love to.

Right now I'm looking at Terraria only playable on Win (is it good?), Fez and I've been wanting Portal 2 for a while, if I find the time to play it on my gaming rig. But I'm thinking about other titles which I have missed and that people see as "must have for that price"... i.e. I just want your recommendations on what you have bought and are thinking about buying!

Terraria is great, I love that game. It's like a 2D Minecraft, but not as pointless. I'm not trying to insult Minecraft, I love that too, there's just a lot more of a game to Terraria.

So what have you guys bought up until now? I'm wondering if it's smart at all to wait until the final day, am I sure to get the best of the best deals that way? Right now, I just bought Castle Crashers and looking into buying FTL. Any other recommendations I can get from you guys?

Traditionally the last day of the sale has just been repeats of the most popular sales from previous days. If something is a daily deal, or a flash sale, or a community vote, that's as cheap as it's going to get.

FTL was on sale for 2.50. It might repeat that sale on the last day, so it's probably worth it to wait until then and see if it goes on sale. I bought FTL for full price, though, and I love that game too. It's very hard and unforgiving, so you have to go into it expecting to lose. I've played about 32 hours of it, and I haven't won a game yet. I'd say it's worth it, but I'm a huge sci-fi / Star Trek / space battles in general fan.

Sounds good Sub, thanks for all the info! I'll look into Terraria and FTL when the final day comes, it's actually been surprisingly hard to keep up with everything because of summer and nice weather (imagine that). But have you bought anything or will buy something?

 

[JTM]

I love this sale so ******* much.

I just got $55 worth of Alan Wake for 3.99. Whoa.

Could a moderator/admin merge this thread: http://forum.esforces.com/threads/155977-Steam-Summer-Sales-Thread with this one? So that we can continue saying what we've all bought up until now! I liked that other list in that other thread.

No regrets!

Edit: Got Hitman: Absolution, The Deus Ex pack, Natural Selection 2, and Infestation (WarZ). Also picked up Insurgency even though it's not on sale + still in Alpha.

What did they lie about?

Probably the annoying part so far but for now I just start a new character and delete anyone under 200 xp.

Originally I was supposed to have a Server for 3 months for buying the $50 bundle. They changed it from Server to Stronghold ( Which is just a section of a map instead of a whole map. )

I'm thinking of getting Natural Selection 2 and the latest of Worms.

 

[Horatio]

I've bought Worms Revolution and Dungeons and Dragons: Baldur's Gate. Both of which are really great games.

 

[Tenzo]

I see. It's good to hear that.
I was also thinking of getting Left4Dead 2 but instead NS2 seems a better choice.
I played the first L4D and it was ok but i got bored of it pretty fast.

 

[Z Power]

Torchlight 2 is damn good. If you are bored and have nothing to do, its a really good time absorber.

Anyone got the dead island card, I have doubles of everything else but Reus

What are the point of cards? I've just been selling all mine, but I'm not sure why anyone would buy them.

Extra friends list space and badges. That's about it I think.
