Steam Sale 2012 - What games emptied your wallet?

[hazabaza1]

So far I got Trine 2 and Two Worlds 2. Hoping Arkham City goes on sale sometime soon, though I'm expecting it won't since it was on community choice once already.

I wouldn't worry about Arkham City not being on sale, it'll be on sale 100%. Mostly likely as a daily deal, if not a flash deal. Several of the community-chosen games that lost have already reappeared, e.g. Portal 2 and Brink. The community-chosen games are there for two reasons: gives the community earlier access to a deal that normally wouldn't happen till later or allows the game to resurface twice (once they have appeared on daily or flash deal).

Awesome, thanks for confirming that. In the meantime, I'll just be replaying Arkham Asylum.
Man, I forgot how good this game was.

Frozen Synapse is $4.99. Strategy fans: Buy this game.

 

[Total LOLige]

I couldn't resist buying Max Payne 3 for $30(!) but I also bought AC: Revelations for $13.

Now which one of you chose Plants Vs. Zombies over Super Meat Boy?

My brother voted on my account for Plants vs Zombies. The bastard. Luckily Super Meat Boy is on for 75% off right now.

I've only bought Portal 2 for £3.74. I'm currently debating whether I should get Brink, is t so bad that it isn't worth £3.74.

EDIT:
Portal 2 - I've finished it already so much fun, Stephen Merchant(Weatley) made that game.
Tropico 3 - £1.99 it's hard being an Presidente
Mirror's Edge - £3.24
Fable: The Lost Chapters - £1.94

That's all so far. All for £10.19 not bad considering they cost less than the total non sale price of Portal 2 which I almost bought before the sale.

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

Trine bundle £3.49
Bioshock Bundle £6.99
Sonic Generations £6.79
Frozen Synapse + Red DLC £5.18

Total £22.45 so far, still so many more deals.

EDIT

Just got The Witcher 2 for £11.99 (plus the free drm-less backup copy thanks to gog.com's offer) in the flash sale, bringing my up to £34.44. Well 3 days gone and I have got most of what I was looking for. I think I'm good unless QUBE, vessel or Rayman Origins goes on for a massive discount.

 

[Hazy992]

Nothing so far because my computer is actually Charles Babbage's difference engine so I can't run much. Might see if there's any decent indie games

 

[BloatedGuppy]

Jade Empire for $7.99 (never played it, figured it was time)
Alice: Madness Returns for $4.99 (not meant to be super good, but for $4.99 I'm not expecting much, and I like the visuals)

Would've grabbed Metro 2033 but it didn't get voted for.

Will likely snap on Arma II if it comes below $20. But 20% off is insufficient.

Now which one of you chose Plants Vs. Zombies over Super Meat Boy?

Probably people who like Super Meat Boy more than Plants vs Zombies and already owns Super Meat Boy. It's not a popularity contest, it's about what you want to go on sale next and why would you want a game you own to go on sale next over another game you don't own?

 

[bluepotatosack]

Max Payne 3
Legend of Grimrock
Alice: Madness somethingorother
That Binding of Isaac expansion

Ridge Racer was tempting, but I'm not so sold on the more Burnout-ish aesthetic. I miss the sunny skies of yesteryear.

Drift: Showdown looks pretty good, as well. But I already have 3, and it looks like a step back from that in some ways.

Captcha: two tone

Spoiler: Ask and ye shall receive!

Funny thing is... SUPER MEAT BOY is now on sale, 75% off, hidden flash deal!

Not on my end.

I have Sam & Max, KOTOR (who the hell is still running an OS that will run this game), Ys Origin and Brink

Ninja'd. KotOR works just fine with Windows 7. When you get to Dantooine there's a feature you have to turn off in an .ini file if you've got an AMD graphics card, but that's literally the only compatibility issue I've ever run into with it. And I'm really not sure what that feature does aside from choking AMD cards on that one planet; the graphics look exactly the same before and after.

I'm in a bit of a bizarre situation where everyone else is buying me stuff. Yesterday one friend got me the Blacklight starter pack and GRAW2, another bought me Payday and another SSF4:AE.

I really appreciate it but they know it annoys me that at the moment I've not the means to keep paying them back for all of these things. On top of that with my area's internet speed I'll be downloading these literally for the rest of the week.

 

[GundamSentinel]

Terraria
Defcon
Lara Croft Guardian of Light
GTA San Andreas (my original game disc broke and I wanted to have the game on PC again)
Some Shogun 2 DLC (faction packs and Rise of the Samurai)
The Witcher 2
and 2K pack:
Spec Ops The Line (is great)
Bioshock 2
Mafia 2
Civilization V
Borderlands
Duke Nukem Forever
Darkness II
Total of about ?90

 

[NerfedFalcon]

The Ys Origin Flash Sale is happening NOW.

And I missed it, because I was asleep for the whole time they put it on. Because this time zone always lines up really annoyingly with every other that's commonly used on the Internet.

fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

 

[The_Lost_King]

Only the assassins creed revelations gold edition. Was going to get the ubisoft bundle, but the main reason I was getting that was for assassins creed, and then it won the community sale thingy.
It was 30 aussie dollars, which I'm pretty happy with, although I'm sure it was far cheaper in other countries. Screw you steam

Hey, hey It's not Steams fault videogames cost a lot in you country.
OT:
Medieval 2: Total War-$6
Trine series - $5
Hard Reset - $3.75
Magicka 4-pack and a dlc - $21
Orcs Must Die - $5
also a couple weeks ago I spent $30 on a bunch of Warhammer 40k stuff when it was on sale
