Steam Winter Sale 2011 is OVER! Good night sweet prince! :(

Decide for me, which one of Assassin's Creed II and Dead Space 2 shall I get? Oh, and does Section 8: Prejudice still have an active MP community, since if I were to buy it, that's pretty much what I'd buy it for.TheOtherTheoG

AC2 is very good. All the things that you might have played through AC thinking "It would be better if they added...", they added. It's a lot more varied than AC and is a good quality game. Never played DS2, so can't comment on that!

i'd go for dead space 2. i was so bored never finished ac2. ezio is no altair. altair was so cool...

Any of the Gothics worth picking up?MythPro1

Gothic2 is one of the best rpgs ive played in 20+ years, just awesome.

Gothic3 is good to (it had horrible issues at launch but with the community patches it runs well now and its a blast to play, very big game world).

Stay away from Gothic4, its made by different devs and its god aweful.

You can spend 100+ hours in Gothic2 and Gothic3 though :D

Dead Space 2 for $5 is absolutely insane. A perfect pick-me-up for the New Year's Weekend. It's highway robbery for DS 1 and 2. Also, SPAZ is a must-have indie title. My favorite indie game this year.

I already own the dead space franchise and the assassin's creed series, but no other games in the sale. Any you'd recommend?

Anyone here play Dungeon Defenders?

Kinda interested in it but don't have anyone to play it with :(

My friend and I gifted each other Dungeon Defenders today, just for the heck of it.

Steam also gave me Binding of Isaac, which I am getting better at, in small doses.

I bought it during the Thanksgiving sale. Two of my buddies bought it at launch and have had their fill with the game so I don't play it at all sadly. It isn't very fun by yourself IMO.

Fair enough. Thanks for the heads up.

Guess I'll leave it and get S.P.A.Z instead.

Is heart of irons worth it. At 2.49 its really tempting. It looks like civ

Any of the Tomb Raiders worth picking up? All of them? MythPro1

[QUOTE="MythPro1"]Any of the Tomb Raiders worth picking up? All of them? flipin_jackass

It's a fun game, but it's been on sale a lot and you can most likely get it cheaper soon.

The Dungeon Siege 3 expansion is not 60% off like the base game. Bummer.

I'll buy that and the Quake collection, as I never played the expansions for those. Now to track down Trent Reznor's soundtrack...

I knew I shouldn't rush to buy it :lol: But I got DS3 yesterday from Amazon for 5 dollars so I guess it evens out.

Is QUAKE 4 worth buying? Never played the Quake games.

Note: I did not like Doom 3.

Crysis Maximum Edition on Amazon

For anyone too lazy to click the link, it's Crysis and Crysis Warhead together along with Crysis Wars, for only $7.49!

I already have LFD2. Any reason to get the first?

This winter sale kinda sucks. Only thing I thought was worth buying was HoI3 so that I could have a steam copy of it. Other than that, the sale has underwhelmed me so far.shakmaster13

Really? I've been quite the opposite. I've bought quite a few games, but this is my first Steam Christmas sale and maybe it was even better, dunno.

Yeah, it's a lot more action packed than Doom 3. It's Call of Duty in space. It was the best looking game until Gears of War.

BUT! The first quarter or so is really boring. It makes a terrible first impression. Check out my screenshots on Steam :P

Buy the original Quake while you're at it, it's amazing.

Any thoughts on Men of War? It looks a bit look Company of Heroes, just not as good. Also, is it worth picking up the first two Serious Sam games?jfcundiff

If you had to recommend one total war game which would it be?

Rome, but I never played Shogun 2.

Rome is just incredible. Hard to say what makes it so good, I guess it's a combination of atmosphere and slick gameplay mechanics which weren't really improved by later games.

Medieval 2 is OK. Definitely lacking Rome's charm but the medieval theme is pretty cool. Empire and Napoleon are just... lol. Better play Cossacks than those.

F*ck my life.

Wanted to buy Amnesia off GamersGate.

Go on the store page.

Click buy.

"Insufficient funds"

Does anyone know where Steam stores soundtracks? I bought The Binding of Isaac with soundtracks but I can't find the soundtrack.

Edit: Nevermind, I found it.
