I'm seeing lots of Binding of Isaac purchases, but not nearly enough. Sessly folks, the only reason not to pick it up is if you know that you really dislike rogue-like games. If you like roguelikes, you have to get TBoI. If you don't know what a roguelike is, then you can discover a whole new style of gaming for under 2.50 and that's a really sweet deal.



I'm thoroughly tempted by Metro 2033. But I'm trying to resist the temptation. Although I really don't know why, considering it costs 2.50... Anyone want to make up my mind for me? :D

Hmmm,

Metro 2033
Assassin's Creed Revelations
Witcher 2
Dungeon Defenders
Lone Survivor
All Magicka DLC
Batman Arkham City: Harley Quinns Revenge
Trine 2 Collectors Edition
Noitu Love 2
Worms GotY edition

And now I must hold back, and not buy anything else, even though I have like 5 more games on sale on my wishlist...

I got Cave Story for £1.75

I'm rather low on funds at the moment so I'm sitting on a fiver waiting for a good deal, I might get one of the indie packs.

A friend of mine loves it and he's the most picky person to ever walk the earth when it comes to games.

So I figured it must be awesome :p

Completed 2033 about a month ago despite owning it for some time, absolutely loved it - one of the best I've played in a while. I really dug the depressive, often claustrophobic atmosphere and conservative gunplay.

Plus if you have the hardware it's one of, if not the best looking game I've ever seen.

Steam Store has gone down just when I was about to buy AoE III :(
Yeah, that's what brought me here too.

Strange it's dead, can't be busier now than the first few days?

Maybe a really popular game was on Flash Sale :p
I'm sure it will be up again soon. Till then I'll just be running around in circles screaming.

Well, I cracked and grabbed Fallout: NV Ultimate Edition yesterday, and seeing the Dungeon Siege bundle on sale made me freak out. So far I've only bought two things, but I'm hoping that ME2 complete goes on either the Flash Sale or Daily deal sometime soon.

Even the steam community is down, I can't access anything on steam other than my games. What a time to suddenly break when I was refreshing the store to see the new flash sales. I've spent a good $50 already and plan to spend at least that much more.

Store and community seem to be back now. Going to wait a tiny bit before I purchase though, don't want it to suddenly die mid-download.

Yeah I got connected. Now for the topic, so far I've bought:

Sonic Generations + Casino Night DLC
Rayman Origins
Starwars KOTOR
Dungeon Siege Complete

I will buy before the sale is over

Halflife Complete
Ys Origin
Ys The Oath in Felghana

Possibly Devil May Cry 4 as well.

I'd get more but my computer can't run them,(I can barely run sonic generations as it is, the thing actually froze on Sky Sanctuary a few times)

Good point, I've not listed my Summer Sale purchases yet;

Saints Row the Third
Half Life: Source
Trine 2
Crysis (lost my original somewhere)
Crysis 2 Maximum Edition

The indie packs have been somewhat lacking IMHO and I already own much of what has gone on flash sales. C'mon Valve and partners, don't let me down as I have money to spend!

Okay, well I haven't had my wallet emptied quite yet. That'll happen when dungeon defenders goes at least 75% off... all dat dlc!

I did cave and buy Legend of Grimrock though, fucking awesome game.

And I'm SO tempted to buy metro 2033 but I don't think I'd personally like it... 5 bucks... hnnnggggg

Everything is so tempting. If I had any money right now I'd probably have dropped about 50-100 bucks.
