Steam Sale Hidden Gems

[Gankytim]

Okay so the latest rotation is shit, nothing on the front page looks appealing so it's time to go hunting for stuff to buy on the 30th just in case it doesn't go on daily deal/community pick/flash sale.

Reccettear: An Item Shops Tale - $9.99 USD http://store.steampowered.com/app/70400/

Elven Legacy - $1.24 USD http://store.steampowered.com/app/25850/

Aliens VS Predator Classic 2000 - 2.49 USD http://store.steampowered.com/app/3730

Anyone else find anything?

LA Noire is 70% off, right now it's pretty darn cheap, still holding off though, in case Gaben decides to bless us with 80%

The original 5 XCOM games for £4.74. I'm not sure if this is cheaper than normal but I'm definitely fine with it!

Skullgirls is £2.99 for the next three hours.

Can't speak for what it's like in high-level play, I've actually heard some negative things to do with long combos, but it's quite beginner-friendly (with a nice tutorial that explains fitegaem lingo) in single-player. And at that price, could always buy it for your friends as well

The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition was $3.26 when I bought it. Also Deadly Premonition is $6.75 as well. Both great prices for great games.

Remember the first rule of Steam Sales guys; don't buy anything that's not on a daily deal or a flash sale before June 30th.

With that being said, Guacamelee is currently £3.99 which is still a really good deal.

The Wolf Among Us is a pretty great narrative experience from what I heard.

I might pick it up tomorrow, because I am sucker for a strong narrative focus, and its ~£7 for all 5 episodes, roughly translating into 12 odd hours of gameplay, with the last episode yet to be released.

Also, The Witcher 2 x10 next time it's on daily deal/flash sale/community choice.

That game is one of the PC's flagship titles in my humble opinion.

as always wait for the last day in case these get some flash/daily deals, but even at their current discounts, they are all worth it, i mean you can buy commandos 2 for less than a freakin' dollar

I got the Stanley Parable. A tag line is, if they had to explain why this is great, you wouldn't understand. $6. I am sure it will be $1.99 in the next 18 months. I'm impatient.

morrowind GOTY edition

Not to actually play it (though I'm not stopping you), but because you'll need it if you want to try the skywind mod when it's finished. More info here: http://tesrenewal.com/ So you might as well get it now that it's 50% off.
