So what are YOU getting from the Steam Summer Sale?

[ResonanceSD]

Borderlands, Oblivion deluxe, Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale, KOTOR, BIT.TRIP.RUNNER and Beyond Good and Evil. Looking forward to tomorrow

I'm also thinking about Swords and Soldiers and Deus Ex 1, could someone that's played them tell me about them?

Deus Ex 1 is nothing short of PURE AND UTTER FORGED AWESOME

I'm sure, but does it hold up well by today's standards?

Graphicswise, not so much, if that's what you're after.


Story, hell yes.


Other variables? You may have to use some tweaks to get it to work with win7.

Don't care about graphics, as I said, just got KOTOR. But the win7 could be a deal breaker, what's broken?

Nothing, it has the same compatibility as KOTOR, AFAIK, Gratuitous LOLBBQ and associated ACRONYMs.

There are several threads on steam on how to make games released before Win7 to work on Win7.

Ok then. Now for the real stuff, how's gameplay?

The best. Multiple methods of beating areas, upgrades, character and weaponry. Decent hacking, etc


Also a system which doesn't give you the ability to perfectly snipe shit the instant you start the game, you want to get good at shooting, you have to work towards it ^^.

Fine, you've sold me. But I think I'll wait a bit, it'll be on sale a good while after all.

It's $6.70 US.... >_> Less than a.. I don't know, how much does a bottle of soft drink cost over there?

 

[babinro]

Telltale pack for $49.99 has been purchased. Mainly for Back to the Future, but I've had my eye on Strong Bad/Monkey Island/Sam and Max games as well.

Defense Grid and all DLC for a $7.00 is now mine as well. I've been on a tower defense buzz lately so I'll try one that costs money and see if it improves at all on the hundreds of free ones.

Can't wait till tomorrow when I can actually download and play them without getting into overage fees from my ISP. 60gb monthly limit is surprisingly not enough sometimes.

A big one? Maybe $3. But I'll get it, don't worry, it's just that I've gotten 12 games already, and maybe it'll be even lower priced. Also, I might get the Square Enix bundle...

 

[MetallicaRulez0]

I'm considering buying Borderlands. I already finished it and 1 or 2 of the DLCs on the 360, but it was quite an awesome game. $7.50 is quite the steal for it, but I'm not exactly sure if I'd play it enough to warrant the purchase.

If anyone out there hasn't played Borderlands though, BUY IT NOW! Great game at an amazing price.

 

[80Maxwell08]

EDIT: Crap I don't think its possible to give them away since they were already purchased for my account sorry everyone. So I removed this entire post so it won't mislead anyone.

 

[MisterShine]

So far, nothing.

Though after 2 previous summer sales and 2 christmas sales, I've got most of the things I wanted pretty cheap. What kinda annoys me is for some of the packs they have there are 2 or 3 things I'd like, and to get all of them separately would be about the same price, but I can't justify getting the whole thing -_-

This is what I get for not waiting for summer and buying everything soon after it comes out.

 

[GeorgW]

Already bought every Dawn of War and everything else from the THQ hits pack. Although I only got that because it was 10$ more than buying all the Dawn of War 2 games and even then I still don't want Homefront, Metro 2033, Red Faction Guerrila, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadows of Chernobyl, Saint's Row 2, or MX vs ATV Reflex. Yep a lot of extras I'll never play just like the last sale when I bought the valve pack. If anyone wants any of them let me know.

What titles would you be willing to part with? They all sound good to me!

 

[Jazoni89]

I just purchased Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale, on steam for the low, low price of £3.50.

I can say I'm enjoying it very much especially for that price. I think it was the only one out of the whole lot that can run on my computer, so i'm not getting any of the others. I Just hope they give more price cuts to games that are not very graphically demanding.

Capitalism, Ho!

 

[vxicepickxv]

So far, nothing.

Me too, but it looks like unlike you, I can't get anything.

 

[Amberella]

Terraria. :3 I've been wanting it for ages! lol.

EDIT: Just bought the Magicka complete pack. xD And I'm about to buy something else! D: Someone help me! I'm going to be broke! hahahaha

Well, if you want to part with Saints Row 2 or Metro 2033, I would be happy to take them off your hands, if you like.
If you don't already have one of them accounted for, please send me a PM.
