Bought Civilization V: Gods & Kings for £4.99

And Legend of Grimrock for £2.99.

Anyone here played Legend of Grimrock? I do tend to enjoy old style games, especially puzzles.

It's great fun to play with friends, if you can convince them to get it. It's just a great game all around, but lacks a bit of the rigid structure that was in place in Diablo 3. Also, it has a great mod community. So after you beat it, you can mess around and break the game for fun :P

[QUOTE="JigglyWiggly_"][QUOTE="BPoole96"]

YOu need to work on dat Arcane Shaft

BPoole96

More like 4 person coop. I move 1 meter i get teamkilled so there is no room for me to do anything. Actually I think they were all just picking on me because all of them have beat the game like 10 times /madcusbad

You can cast a shield around yourself or if they're doing a specific element to you, you can cast that resistance on yourself. Like if they are killing you with lightning strike, you would press A+E and cast it on yourself. I never did 4 player co op bc of that reason. The game is much more enjoyable with only 1 or 2 other people so you can actually coordinate attacks without killing eachother


I put shield, but it was basically this:
I was about to move to checkpoint
and then I get lightning'd 10,000 dmg right before I get there.
Team then lols > : |
mad confirmed


But my team is a bunch of trolls

and i wouldn't want it any other way

I bought Dishonored and transformers fall of cybertron, like the first one transformers seems to have been underrated here, thought it wwas great beat it in 2 days, dishonored on the other hand seems to have been overrated, just cant get into it, dont really like the feel of the game, have to give it some more time, but it may be one of the many steam game sales that I buy and never play.

If you can forgive the cartoony art style (personally I like it) then you will love TL2. Its the true successor to D2. D3 is just a pale imitation of what came before.

Pretty lame sale. Where are all of the $7 or $8 doorbusters they normally have? Hopefully we'll see those during the actual holiday sale in a few weeks.

the_ChEeSe_mAn2

Games are at an already pretty big discount and people are still complaining? Talk about spoiled.

This. This autumn sale was excellent. Flash sales were pretty darn good too. New games like Dishonored and Borderlands 2 being discounted to $30, and I gotta say it again SR3 full for a mere $12.49.

And The Witcher 2 for $12 once and now $7.49. What an epic game for a doorbuster price. Max Payne for $15. The list goes on. This sale was so darn good. That price kicked down the vault to gaming heaven.

Steam certainly busted my door this year.

Edit: P.S. Deus Ex Human Revolution for a mere $5. Somebody stop me. Do I need to keep going? :P

I bought it when it came out and devoured that game. It is brilliant. If you like the old school games like Eye Of The Beholder or Wizardry than you will love it. It eases you into things and doesn't get hard until five or six floors in but the puzzles get really devious later. I loved this game to pieces and hope to see more of its style being made.

Aside from Max Payne 3 I also bought Dishonored and Skyrim.

If XCOM had been at 50% off I would have bought that as well. But right now I feel like 50% for Dishonored is an absolute steal!

I'm almost finished with Max Payne 3. It's really quite good.

I'm on Chapter XIII and am 8 hours in. So I figure it's a 9-10 hour game. I'm interested to try the various Arcade modes for singleplayer, but not sure if multiplayer is even worth trying. The way I figure, if I wanted multiplayer I'd be playing a multiplayer game.

Dishonored is next just so I feel good about playing a brand new game.

Other than that, I kind of want Torchlight II since I love the first and was bored by Diablo III, but I figure I can wait on that one for now and save my $10 for a sandwich or something.

They've all been worth the price.

Honestly, I figure with my purchased games I should be good until the Winter/Christmas sale. And hopefully those prices are as ridiculously awesome as this Fall sale, because last year pales compared to what we got this year.

Yea! That's what I'm thinking. Still $30 for all those is freakin' good. My HDD is super full though. I have to get a new one, but it'll be a while. I also have considerable backlog and if I'm not going to play them now - I might as well hold off til later when they might be even cheaper. lol I'll sleep on it. :P

How is Arkham City compared to the first game? I played the first game for a bit but couldn't get into and stopped playing. Is the second different or more of the same?

If you didn't really like the first, you probably won't like the second. Although, Arkham City is a lot better then the first game.

Now that the sales over, I do have to admit I went slightly overboard. The fact that they converted the games to my country's currency helped, since now games that would cost ~60 new, for instance, cost around ~50. 10 - 20% price reduction on most cases and I'm not a victim of possible fluctuations. In any case, my purchases are... - The Witcher (4.25 BRL) - The Witcher 2 (20 BRL) - Torchlight II (26.24 BRL) - Crysis 2 Maximum Edition (21 BRL) - Thief 2012 Bundle (12.99 BRL) - Deus Ex: Human Revolution (8.75 BRL) - Mark of the Ninja (12.50 BRL) - Borderlands 2 (36~ BRL) - Metro 2033 (8.75 BRL) - Batman Arkham City GotY (12.50 BRL) - Sonic Generations (12.50 BRL) - Orcs Must Die 2 (6.25 BRL) - Alan Wake bundle (17.50 BRL) Total: 199.24 BRL : 99.62 USD It's impressive, really justifies the amount I spent to have decent PC hardware :). Had I waited on a few purchases, I could've saved around 5 - 10 dollars - not much of a loss. PS.: Just out of curiosity, how much does AC III cost on Steam in the U.S? It's up here for around USD 40, is it 60 dollars there or did they pick a different price tag?

I'm tempted to pick up Witcher 2, CS: GO, among some others, but I still haven't played games I bought from the Autumn 2011 sale. So many great deals on games, but not enough time to play them. :(

I hope that trends, I also noticed Hitman was below regular launch retail price. It does, however, confirm my estimates: it's USD 50,00 there and BRL 84,00 here - which translates to USD 42,00 - roughly 18% price cut from what it's retailing in America/Canada for. There's really no way for video game consoles to survive here if this continues: retail stores sell games at launch at, minimally, USD 65,00 - and the prices take years to drop. How is that going to compete with: 1) Steam prices, 2) Steam's constant discounts, 3) cheapening of computer hardware?

It's definitely a great game. If you're a fan of the genre from the 'Eye of the Beholder' times, you should disable the auto-map feature - having to draw everything on a grid-paper beckons to the early 90's dungeon crawlers like nothing else. I can definitely see it hard to get used to for anyone who didn't play the 'original' game, though - the gameplay has a touch of old and surpassed, what with the grid movements and lackluster combat.

They've got all these deals with the old price slashed out and the new price under it. Then I see Black Ops 2 - £39.99. Nothing else. No price reduction.

I can't stand Activision. I wasn't going to buy it but it still pissed me off.

Are you going to b*tch about Assassin's Creed III not being on sale? What about Hitman Absolutiuon? The newest games very rarely go on sale during steam sales.

I'm going to **** about a series which is repeadedly released above the regular price of a new release game and rarely drops in price at all even long after release. Are you going to deal with it like a good little adult?

IT's $49.99 which is regular price, mate. Too bad it wasn't on GMG though or else you could use the 25% coupon.
