Waiting for Remember Me to drop to something better than 25%...

The love I bear thee can afford no better term than this: thou art a villain.

hope Hearthfire and Dragonborn DLC for Skyrim will be daily or flash deal this year, would love to get them. Is there some way to get a prompt when flash deal changes?

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Why do you need a prompt? It's all designed after a 24 hour clock. Daily deals last 48 hours and new ones start every 24. Flash deals and Community Choice deals are on an 8 hour clock. In my time zone that means that a new Flash deal and Community Choice begins at 7 pm, 3 am, 11 am. Every day. Just memorise when the shifts happen.

That said, if you put a game you are interested in on your wishlist, then you can get an e-mail or text-message from steam when that game goes on sale. Not quite sure if this system works perfectly during an event like this but I have received some e-mail from Steam so far.

Debating whether or not to get the Civ 5 Bundle for $22.50...

Already bought Dark Souls and Bastion so far.

The new civ 5 dlc, brave new world, is 33% off (which came out today I think?). Heard good things so i've grabbed it.

Civ 5 Gold for £7.50 is a great deal if you like the civ games.

very good...;)

Posted 12 July 2013 - 02:53 PM

The only one that I want or even thing about having time for is Crusader kings II it is 50% now. I think that I will wait a bit and see if it drops more.

How many fucking people do I have to hammer in order to get that across.

FTL is an amazing game. It's one of those games were you just want to take one more run, just one more mission, just 5 more minutes and then suddenly 4 hours just passed in the blink of an eye-

I want to buy something cheap to play for kicks

Any suggestions? The last PC game I bought was Neverwinter Nights (you may laugh)

HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

Seconded. One of the few games I keep installed at all times (it's also cheap and takes up no space).

Legalise drugs! And murder!

Well, you missed the flash sale, but Bastion is still only $7.49, and I'm really liking it so far...

Currently re-reading the entire series and waiting for Fall of Light. You can catch me in the chat to win a drawing request!~MISANDRY FOR LIFE MUAHAHA~

Just Cause 2 and FTL are musthaves if you don't already have them. Seriously, Just Cause 2 is ridiculous.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

With all this FTL praise, I'm sold on it. It's hard not to be at that price. Anyone play Space Pirates and Zombies or Gratuitous Space Battles before and have a comparison between those and FTL?

What kind of games do you like?

for myself, it would feel really weird not buying anyhting this sale. So I picked up Sleeping Dogs for under 7 bucks in a flash sale. Maybe I'll get to play it sometime in 2020-something

I got Dark Souls. I might get one more like FTL, but I'm good with what five games I've got thus far in my steam library.

I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.

I'm not seeing games that are listed as compatible with Win 8 and that makes me worry. Anybody have experience in this area?

All games "should" be compatible with Windows 8. The problems begin if a game says it is ONLY compatible with one system.

I run windows 8 and I have played both new and old games on it with out a hitch.
