Since Steam is so freaking overloaded right now, I'm going to wait until things calm down a bit.

This game could honestly give out hand jobs for free and people would still bitch.

This sale...there goes my summer. Alright, a slightly more specific question.

Braid, World of Goo, or Aquaria? All currently 5 bucks, only getting one.

Of those, I enjoyed braid the most.  I couldn't seem to get into Aquaria for some reason...  Braid isn't too long though.


Strangely I'm really looking forward to getting Toki Tori.  For some reason I don't quite understand I really regret not picking it up during the last sale.

I got them all for 50cents during some indie thing where you could decide how much you would pay for 15 or so indie games ^^
Braid was fun, World of Goo was way too hard for me (that's probably just my fault) and Aqauria was terribly boring but if you're into arty games it you might think it is fun.
I'd say Braid, although World of Goo feels more like an actual game.

If you don't care about plot, go for Braid. If you don't mind only meh gameplay in exchange for an amazing story, go for Aquaria. WoG just doesn't compare with Braid and Aquaria.

The one drawback to this with the summer games part of the sale is that there are so many patches downloading for games. Although I suspect that they have been doing some of the patches ahead of time as there have been several for various games over the past month or so that have not been given patchnotes or announcments through the news.

I actually enjoyed World of Goo more than both Aquaria and Braid. I'm not into the whole puzzle thing, but love building stuff. World of Goo had a cute little story, nothing too fancy, gorgeous aesthetics, and nice gameplay :)

So, question about games:

Is Armada 2526 worth it? It has relatively mediocre scores at meta critic, but on the other hand, 4x games tend to get mediocre scores there. I tried to see if it had a TvTropes page, but it doesn't seem to have one...

I disliked World of Goo, as well as Braid (and Lugaru), and I couldn't bring myself to try any more from the Humble Bundles after that.

If anyone is going for BIT.TRIP BEAT's Sunbathing achievement, apparently it's really easy, but it's broken right now (won't register with them yet). Give it a moment before going for that ticket. aaAaAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity is challenging, but possible. To get it, click on the sun in the lower-left corner of the screen upon opening.

Working on Toki Tori and Lead and Gold next.


EDIT:
Actually, if anyone wants to get Lead and Gold's achievement ticket, I can start up a server, and we can mututally gain the tickets, provided I can set the rules for that to be possible. Choose a partner and take turns headshooting each other 7 times on opposing teams.

EDIT EDIT:
Toki Tori's challenge was a bit of a challenge. Keep your eyes sharp cause one can easily evade you (BTW, you only need 1 hedgehog to get the easy to miss one).

Might start a L&G server for that next one.

Oh, and B.TB needs to be updated before taking on Sunbathing.

It's very very similar to MoO2. I have it myself, but I haven't installed it yet. I plan to sometime soon.

You can search on youtube, there are some gameplay videos and a review or two.
