This sale was evil so far. I bought Amnesia: The Dark Descent and I don't handle scary video games well, but I saw the "If you have any Penumbra game it only costs $4.80!", knowing that I got Overture from the Humble Bundle, I bought it.
The results of me playing this game are going to be certainly interesting.
[QUOTE=windwakr;27087259]It's worth it just for Beat Hazard, that game is amazing. Just don't play it if you're sensitive to flashing lights, or you'd be rolling around on the floor foaming within 10 seconds.[/QUOTE]
I could purchase just that by itself for the same cost :v:

Beat Hazard is absolutely nothing like Audiosurf and merely feels like playing a generic shmup while listening to music. And the fact that slow songs are much harder because your ship doesn't even shoot well enough is a blatant mistake in game design. Bosses appear at the most ridiculous moments too.

No, actually, Beat Hazard is pretty awful. On lower difficulties, it's a walk in the park ridiculously easy and dull dual-stick shooter. On the higher difficulties, it becomes impossible for all the wrong reasons: the visual effects make it literally impossible to see your ship, enemies take ridiculous amounts of damage, you lose all your power when you die, and bosses always spawn right before quiet parts of the song.
Not to mention the fucking stupid mechanic of collecting powerups to increase volume. You can't even hear the damn music until 3/5s of the way through the song when you've collected enough volume powerups to get it to max.
So far I've gotten Super Meat Boy and Oblivion GOTY

Just a heads up: Chronicles of Riddick has possibly the worst DRM I have ever experienced. I think I entered my key wrong the first time or something because I had to contact the company that made it and after like a day they fixed it for me. It's just a big mess.
Eh, I only plan on playing it once unless i really fall in love with it.

How do I find that?
So just yesterday I've found out about the paysafecard, and that I could buy it in [u]my town[/u]. I only have a maestro credit card (Steam doesn't accept that) and no paypal, so the only games I had on Steam so far are the retail ones. Needless to say, today i bought a 50€ paysafe card, then immediately purchased 9 games: :dance:
GTA4 pack, both Left4Deads, Amnesia, Mass Effect, Torchlight, F.E.A.R, Evil Genius and Judge Dredd: Dredd vs Death (hey, it was only 1€ and there was a thread on FP a while ago that made it look quite interesting)
Yeah, I'm not very up to date with games, but it saves me loadsa money.
[QUOTE=Mr. Agree;27096559]How do I find that?[/QUOTE]
Click on your username in the steam client or the webbrowser.
I need someone who is able to buy Stofe from American Amazon to buy me Mafia 2 Digital, I will repay you via PayPal. Your office will suddenly become more awesome too.
has grid been on super sale yet?
[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;27092109]Once you get to elite you start with max volume[/QUOTE]
I know, but before then it's aggravating as fuck. Plus, you still lose your volume pickups when you die, regardless of rank.

Still can't find it! It's something easy to find as well, half asleep :(

So I've been thinking of getting DEFCON (through the Indie Mix Pack), I like the gameplay of it and it's a great concept for a game. But is anyone even playing it anymore? I mean already back in 2006 there were very few players on it, I don't wanna put money into a game that is dead.

Lots of people bought it in the sales, should be more people now.

Ahh, thank you very much. Very helpful :D
Just realised that 88 cents i had left was just enough to purchase the two cheapest games on Steam right now: Shattered Union and Misadventures of PB Winterbottom. So i got them as well :v:
I've spent £52 so far but they've mostly been on games costing about 6 quid!
I feel robbed from purchasing GTA 4 complete pack, it's terrible. Ballad of gay tony just shows a black screen after I go into the club (first mission), in the lost and damned the characters face meshes dissapear with only their teeth and eyes showing, GTA 4 just runs like shit. Gay tony and lost and damned run bit better but still they all 3 keep fucking crashing.
I paid 8.75 euros for this shit, what the fuck suck balls rockstar.
I have ATI HD 5770, AMD athlon II X4 635. 2GB DDR3 1333MHz ram.

Odd. Someone I know says he has an AMD Athlon X2 250 3ghz with 4gb ram, 5770 card and runs it 1680x1050 with high everything on smooth.
