I put in 5 hours into Mad Max. I highly recommend this very informative documentary. Edit: In seriousness, it's great for the sale price they're giving. Buy it.
Subnautica is scary as fuck...
This is my first sale. Instead of spending money, I've made a 6€ profit so far from selling cards and items. I hate myself.
I'm glad I got Dishonored for $5. It was a lot of fun and I don't know why I waited this long to play it.
Was just about to preorder the next South Park game along with my new Summer Sale games only to find I now can't find it in the store. For some reason I can't preorder it any more having been able to a week ago.
Does anyone know if [url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/383120/?snr=1_7_7_topsellers_150_1]Empyrion - Galactic Survival[/url] is any good? It seems like an interesting game for co-op

I bought Fallout 4 & Season Pass because it became more profitable to. I'm REALLY enjoying it for PC. I mean holy shit Far Harbour was absolutely fucking amazing.
[QUOTE=The bird Man;50631565]Dude that's like 6-7 Bad Rats... nothing to be ashamed of[/QUOTE] maybe england could switch over to a bad rats-based economy? Seems far more stable than the euro tbh
[QUOTE=The bird Man;50631565]Dude that's like 6-7 Bad Rats... nothing to be ashamed of[/QUOTE] I keep saving more to get "better games" and eventually end up buying nothing at all, because I don't want to spend that much for one game. It's a brutal cycle of life.
I got a question Contagion is on sale for 2.49, is it worth buying it?
[QUOTE=DaWhatTheFox;50629986]So what makes them so great? Also what's wrong with Arcania?[/QUOTE] I would take Antifuffins statements about arcania with a grain of salt, gothic fans are fanatic about complaining about it. It is somewhat mediocre though, but it's not as bad as they would have you believe. It's simply different.
Current damage: Metal Gear Rising Revengeance Downwell Serious Sam Classics: Revolution I've spent too much in the other sales already
Went for the cheap strategy like always: Age of Empires II LISA Plants vs. Zombies Super House of Dead Ninjas + DLC To the Moon Geometry Dash Stacking Brutal Legend Costume Quest LISA was fucking good, might get The Joyful later. I never tried Plants vs. Zombies before and played it for like 15 hours between two days, god help me.
I've got $4.80 left. Should I buy Bioshock, or something else?
[QUOTE=AbbaDee;50632915]I've got $4.80 left. Should I buy Bioshock, or something else?[/QUOTE] I think both Bioshock 1 and 2 are getting the remaster update that comes with the new collection so theres no reason not to. Both are great games, 1 more than 2. But 2 is still good.
Only thing I bought this sale is the Steam Controller, which I'm happy to see is on the cycle for sale prices with the rest of the Steam Hardware and general games.

I just love the idea I was able to give away my virtual hats and whatnot and be able to buy a physical piece of gaming technology. Just shows ya the craziness of the Steam marketplace.

Just shows ya the craziness of the Steam marketplace.[/QUOTE] TF2 is a great game to play with the Steam Controller. It has an official configuration. One tip: Use the gyro! It has motion controls, which you can use for aiming. Valve's FPS games like Portal 2, CS:GO, and TF2 already have the gyro set up. [video=youtube;B43ibnztDLc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B43ibnztDLc[/video] The center area has an icon now, so you can see it clearly. You can also use the motion controls as a steering wheel in racing games, it's really neat. [video=youtube;ZwW6uB-tvqY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwW6uB-tvqY[/video] Also, if you have Super Meat Boy I recommend trying that, and using maxrunner's configuration. He's near the top at the community list, so it's easy to find. His configuration works really well.
Anyone recommend any games that are on sale that are open world RPGs or good FPS games? Things akin to Fallout and things like Insurgency and what-not.
[QUOTE=MissZoey;50633648]Anyone recommend any games that are on sale that are open world RPGs or good FPS games? Things akin to Fallout and things like Insurgency and what-not.[/QUOTE] DOOM is a good FPS game, and it's on sale for $40.
I had no idea the steam controller had motion controls... thinking of getting one now
They never advertised the motion controls at all. They said "wanna step up your competitive game?" in the commercial but then showed the dual-stage triggers instead of the motion controls. Probably because the sixaxis controller was a failure or something (I don't know a whole lot about the sixaxis controller but wasn't it hated by a lot of people?) and they made the dualshock 3 with rumble motors.
Shame that they don't ship the controllers to my place. A lad told me that once the delivery enters South East Asia, the rate of it being successfully brought to my house decreases significantly. Hah
What are some good turn based combat RPGs? I bought Divinity Original Sin and I'm enjoying it, and am wondering what else is good. If it has guns that's a plus. I already have Fallout 1 and 2. Wasteland 2 any good?
I'd love to try that South Park stick game, but Australia is [i]still[/i] stupid and only offers the censored version on Steam

So uh, anyone want to trade cards with me? :v: I need "Everything is fine" and I can trade anything except "X marks the spot" I managed to get 9 of "don't go chasing fireflies" but can't get the ONE card I'm missing to make the badge.

is it me or was this sale kind of lackluster

Probably not as good as the slew of sci-fi sandbox games that are gonna be coming out within the next 2-3 years but for a game that's like 10 bucks it seems worth it.
