I wish the Humble store would actually let me add things to cart.

[Rolan7]

I wish the steam store would let me buy multiple gift copies at once.  I want, like, a dozen copies of EYE at this price...  Good thing it's got a 4-pack for *even cheaper* at least.

Just one thing to be aware of if someone picks up Bloodbowl, Legendary is not the final edition, which would be Chaos edition. So you will have three less teams types available and certain bug fixes, particularly relating to the single player campaign mode, never made it into the legendary edition. If you are unlikely to want to play the singleplayer mode or not want to play the extra teams then it does let you save a small amount of money.

It was working when I used it 20 minutes ago, although it did leave the items in the cart after I'd purchased them, which may be an issue if you do multiple purchases.

Is EYE really that good?

Steam Sale time, huh? This might be one of those rare times I might have little to no activity this time; unless there's a series of challenges again. As of now, I'm still rebuilding my funds since my job change into freelancing.

There's always the Summer Sale, I guess. Unless I find a decent job that'll pay sooner than others; then I could make an exception. As of now, anything less than 5 bucks at most.

BTW, I still have a hell of a backlog to work on. Made decent progress so far with it (Quake is currently on my to-do).

EDIT:
Speedrunners is on sale right now. It's really fun. Been playing against my brothers online weekly. Yields some rather hilarious rounds, regardless of skill level. I'm usually Falcon the Chicken-man.

Be wary of dick moves when playing, they're inevitable. That said, you may have a hard time against me. I'm in the Advanced League, and still climbing.

EDIT EDIT:
Anyone else have Steam crashing like a bumper car? I'm not even updating anything, and it's randomly crashing. Too much traffic, I guess.

EDIT EDIT EDIT:
Traffic's not an issue. Not even at peak levels right now, and it's crashing like I am in RaceRoom right now.

The only way I'm aware of to get around this is to add wallet funds, then buy how many copies you want.  I do this occasionally when I want more than one copy of something and I don't want to get my card flagged for a flurry of authorization calls.

It's very hit or miss.  It feels very... off, and the translation is almost impenetrable, and there's a lot of walking.  But once I got the hang of it, I loved it enough to play through 4 times (completing the different story paths unlocks a final area which makes even less sense than anything else).

It gave me the sense of playing through a complicated story with interesting factions, except from the point of view of someone having a long psychotic breakdown.  This is intentional, I think.  On at least one occasion your character earns worried remarks from comrades for mentioning events which, apparently, only happened for you.  Taking a lot of damage or getting your implants hacked can make you hallucinate.  There's a neat infrared-like which highlights enemies, great for dark levels, except that "Meta-streumonic" monsters (borne of mankinds collective fears) become *invisible*.  It's creepy.

Maybe I just like the upgrade system, which reminded me of the good parts of Deus Ex 1.  With the benefit that you can change up your equipment between (and often during) missions.  Blocking bullets with swords is great, too.  And the cybernetic upgrades and skills are like System Shock 2 but expanded upon.  There aren't a lot of psi powers...  I think the last one makes enemies explode into a demon though.

Edit: It's certainly worth a flippin dollar though, if a person is into somewhat hardcore action-RPGs with spooky cyberpunk.

[Metalax]

Generally agree with the others about EYE. One thing to note, there is a fanmade translation patch that retranslated the game into comprehensible English. You are still likely to be confused by what exactly is said, but that is intentional confusion(rather than bad translation) that you will come to understand as you progress through the campaign.

There's always the Summer Sale, I guess.

And the spring sale. And the fall sale. "We heard you like sales" sales #1 & #2.

Also Dominions 4 is 40% off at the moment, in case anyone's been eyeing that and wishing it to go on sale.

[Metalax]

New flash sales - also it looks like new flash sales up every 12 hours but the actual discounts remain for 24 hours on them.

Monaco -91%
Defense Grid -66%
Doorkickers -50%
Broken Age -66%
Broforce -33%
Dead Space 2 -75%

So I was browsing the steam cheap seats, when I saw the following.



Interestingly, this is the second time I've seen something like this happen.

Ahem.

METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE -80%
I think it is the best deal atm

Found one that's better

Pretty certain it's just bugged though.

I think you've pounded your point, Metalax.  ^_______________^

Steam Sales time...

The time of year when I look at the list of games going...

"I bought that at full price."
"Nope, got, got, got, got, got, looks stupid, got, got, got, never in a million years"
OR my Fav
"Hey look. Nothing to add to my mount of games. Damn it, I think I might have more then Ross does from "Steam Train".
