EssArrBee Posted June 26, 2014 Author Posted June 26, 2014 This Steam sale is really hitting me hard. I can't decide if I have more games from Humble Bundles or Steam Sales that I will never play. Can't recommend Arkam Asylum enough by the way. Love that game, originally it was GOFL, but I guess since that is gone Steam finally picked it up.
phazer11 Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 The Steam sale hasn't hurt me too badly yet only ~$30 the only real problem I have with playing other games is finding room for them which isn't exactly easy even with a 240GB SSD.
sgtnapalm Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Postal 2 Complete is on sale for $3 dollars. I'd highly reccomend it, they recently had a really big update where they implemented a whole bunch of user mods to be official including A Week In Paradise, which is a mod that merges Postal 2 and Apocalypse weekend to be a new game. They added in a dozen or so new weapons and fixed tons of bugs. Steam workshop for mods was added, and they are currently working on a brand new DLC that will come out later this year. It's a lot of value for $3 bucks. Most of these changes save for Steam Workshop will be coming to the GOG version at some time in the future. I would also like to throw in my support for the first two Batman: Arkham games. Arkham Asylum is very fun, and Arkham City is one of the few isntances of a sequel done right; they took every mechanic, improved on it in almost every conceivable way, and made the story larger and grander. I would highly recommend it. I don't know about Arkham Origins, though.
Neovalen Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I went ahead and got Arkham Asylum but left Origins to the next sale. Reviews are pretty horrible about bugs.
dem1an Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I went ahead and got Arkham Asylum but left Origins to the next sale. Reviews are pretty horrible about bugs.You get it at $11.99?
EssArrBee Posted June 27, 2014 Author Posted June 27, 2014 You get it at $11.99?I think it was $5 the other day.
EssArrBee Posted June 27, 2014 Author Posted June 27, 2014 I think every time System Shock 2 is on sale I mention it, so I won't break that streak. It's only $1.50 right now. Get it, get some of Vurt's mods for it, profit.
phazer11 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Thanks for the recommendation ESRB I'll have something to play next time I'm killing time in Linux.I wouldn't say no if a certain insistent penguin took this opportunity to get me a certain strategy game he mentions every single time I talk to him on Steam... Cough cough.
TechAngel85 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I'm considering picking up Alan Wake. Opinions?
Kelmych Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I've heard good reviews here on the STEP forums and at websites that review games. I bought it from GOG yesterday since they had a good price (similar to the current Steam price); given a choice I prefer DRM-free. Steam and Humble Bundles sometimes have the franchise version which also includes the other Alan Wake game.
WilliamImm Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I wouldn't say no if a certain insistent penguin took this opportunity to get me a certain strategy game he mentions every single time I talk to him on Steam... Cough cough....that is, assuming I have enough money ATM to get it before the deal expires, which I do not. (XCOM: Enemy Unknown is playable now on Linux, however)
dem1an Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Any thoughts on Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut for $5? Seem to be some mixed reviews.
TechAngel85 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I picked it up for that cheap but have never played it.
EssArrBee Posted June 28, 2014 Author Posted June 28, 2014 I like human revolution enough that I didn't feel like I wasted 60 bucks. So at the sale price it's worth it.
