Hot Heart Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Got Ben There, Dan That and Time Gentleman, Please! from Steam for 75p. http://store.steampowered.com/app/37400/?snr=1_4_4__106_1 I had the first one ages ago on my laptop because it was free (I imagine it actually still is) and figured I should actually try and get round to playing them sometime. Can't go wrong at 75p anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excel_excel Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Got Ben There, Dan That and Time Gentleman, Please! from Steam too. Fantastic. Here's just one brilliant bit of the writing! You can use Dan to interact with things. Clicking on Dan. Ben say "I can't have Dan interact with himself, who knows that that will lead too." Dan "Wanking!"

Thursday Next Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Got Infamous 2 (well played Sony, sucker me in with your freebies so I buy the new release...) and Shadows of the Damned. Still need to finish my "Good" playthrough of Infamous, and Alice. Too many gorram games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I actually got this at Best Buy instead of through Amazon. The problem I was having was that Amazon wasn't going to ship the game out until July. I was aware it would take some time, and for a cheap price it would be worth it. However, Best Buy lowered their price again and so it was $20 in the store. Add my $5 discount coupon and I cancelled my Amazon order in a heartbeat. I also saw something a little perplexing. There was a young couple ahead of me at the registers, and they must have been loaded because their purchase was: one Nintendo 3DS, one Nintendo DSi, TWO copies of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and one copy of Pilotwings Resort. If I'm not mistaken, that's nearly $600 (with sales tax)! Maybe they were going to sell it all online, or perhaps they had a rich birthday party to attend.

WTF Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 I finally caved in and bought one of my steam sales games - Portal 2. I know it'll be on sale but realised my wife wouldn't mind playing it on the PS3. So we can co-op between the ps3 and pc. She still uses my steam account and if anyone from here is on my FL which is mostly unlikely I guess (with the exception of the brainhurtbuy since his icon is the same as his steam one - we must have added on a kotaku thread). But yes Portal 2. Right now I'm trying to finish games off slowly. I know I'll be trying to finish some of what I have. Mostly bought/almost bought games for the next 2 months approx in order of release Catherine El Shaddai (both of which I've already tried Asian versions of when I was away for a few months) Deus Ex: Human Revolution Heroes 6 Resistance 3 Child of Eden (prefer the non-kinect 3D enabled version) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 For some reason, I thought Heroes VI was going to be a console release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 For some reason, I thought Heroes VI was going to be a console release. Nah heroes 6 is unlikely to hit consoles soon (if at all). However we do now have Heroes Chronicles on GoG (basically heroes 3 but individual stories like the second expansion). On Topic: Silent Hill: Shattered Memories purchased.

Strangelove Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I already owned the regular RE5. And I basically have the same criticisms as everyone else. that being said, i bought this one simply for the Move support. RE4 was awesome on the Wii, and RE5 with Move is pretty much like that. The 2 episodes were also pretty alright. I also bought the navigation controller. Feels good, man. I should probably replay Killzone 3 again with it.

Battra92 Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 I just bought Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale and Jamestown via the Steam Sale. Yes, I downloaded Steam. No, I don't expect to buy anything else. Not with this crappy computer anyway. :-P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4: Gritty Reboot Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 I don't expect to buy anything else. That's what I said 7 years ago when I downloaded Steam: "I'm just gonna use it for Half-Life 2, I'm not gonna buy anything else." Now, I'm living on the streets, I lost my job, my wife, my kids, and I leech electricity off the light poles in the park to keep my rig running, panhandling for any extra coin I can get to buy more Steam games. So yeah, good luck with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battra92 Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 The major deterrent for me is that I rarely boot into Windows. When I'm on my Desktop I'm in Linux 80% of the time. It's one reason that PC gaming doesn't appeal to me as much: Because I'm in Linux all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Bought TES:IV... because I figure I may as well start over as one of the characters you were "meant" to play the game as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
「Advent Chaos」 Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 I also bought the navigation controller. Feels good, man. So jelly right now. I don't even understand why the Move appeals to me so much, other than "Child of Eden" and "No More Heroes" I don't see myself using it much. Also, Last weekend I got all the "PSN Welcome back" games, LittleBigPlanet I once had and gave it away, but I'll give it another playthrough. I'm enjoying inFAMOUS so far, to be expected since I would replay the demo quite a bit. Dead Nation is fun, a little dark, but pretty fun, I have yet to tap into it's multiplayer options. SuperStardust and Wipeout I haven't played yet, I'll get to that sometime in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hocking Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Bought TES:IV... Ditto. I've only just re-installed from the disc as well, absolutely kicking myself that I now want to un-install that and re-install the mods on the Steam version.

deanb Posted July 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Recettear and all the Defence Grid DLC. Love that game. Can't say no to 40p DLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hocking Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Just picked up Just Cause, Just Cause 2 & JC2 DLC in the Steam sale. I already own the first on the PC, but I like the idea of having it on Steam. The second I already have on the XBOX, but at £4, I am interested in being able to use the mods on the PC.

P4: Gritty Reboot Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Hocking, have you by chance got a widescreen monitor? I could not for the life of me get Just Cause to run in any wide format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Being broke during a Steam sale is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, I don't add stupid amounts of new games to my already insane Steam backlog. But reading this thread right now makes me feel like a drug addict in need of a fix This sale is pretty easy to ignore otherwise, though, because I tend to game in "platform phases". For months at a time I'll game exclusively on one platform and ignore the other. I almost never switch back and forth between my PC and my PS3. It's always one or the other, rarely both. And right now, I've been spending a lot of time on the PS3 these past few weeks. I don't even log on to Steam when I'm on the PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hocking Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Hocking, have you by chance got a widescreen monitor? I could not for the life of me get Just Cause to run in any wide format. I have now but when I originally bought Just Cause on the PC, I had a 15".
