Steam Sale Spotlight

[figmentPez]

GameFly has F.E.A.R. 3 for $4.99 until Thursday, and it redeems on Steam.

Sorry, I don't know about international prices.

[Darth Marsden]

Good find!

Don't worry too much about prices. The fact you found it at all is enough!

Oh, and its price-matched on steam now.

(So its like £8 for us in the UK if we already have Alan Wake on GOG, making it the best deal out of the two now)

[Darth Marsden]

Today's Daily Deal is... Wolfenstein 3D? Yep, the very first one is now the price it should always have been on Steam - 74p / $1.24. Note that this doesn't include the Spear of Destiny, though it is available separately for the same price. Return to Castle Wolfenstein is also reduced, down to £1.49 / $2.49.

The complete Wolfenstein pack (which DOESN'T include the recent one just called Wolfenstein, sadly) is also reduced, and the recommended buy if you're going to get this. It's got Wolf3D, Spear of Destiny & Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and it's a mere £2.50 / $3.75.

Finally, the offer apparently extends to the Super id Software Pack, which has so much stuff in it I can't be bothered to list it - have a link instead./ It's £37.99 / $49.99. And yes, RAGE is in it, but not Wolfenstein (2008).

On a completely different note, I just plain forgot to mention that the Steam version of Alan Wake also has a collector's edition for £13.49 / $17.49 (or there's the option to upgrade your normal version for £3.49 / $4.99). You get a commentary track, PDF artbook and the soundtrack.

Meh, right now I'm saving up for the Katy Perry edition of Showtime and Resonance anyway, so I'm not going to get any of the deals currently on.

Well, except for indie bundles. Me loves indie bundles.

[Darth Marsden]

Today's Daily Deal is Bunch of Heroes. £1.99 / $2.49.

There's also the Weekend deals, which I didn't post because I was half-asleep all last evening. Better now

First, there's the Tropico series. Tropico IV is free-to-play all weekend, and the entire series is on offer. Here's the list:

(Note that all of the following are the same price, whatever your currency (grr).
Tropico: Reloaded (Tropico, the Paradise Island DLC and Tropico II: Pirate Cove) - 2.37
Tropico III - 3.39
Tropico III: Absolute Power (DLC) - 3.39
...and the three above as the Tropico Trilogy is 6.79.
There's also Tropico 3: Gold Edition, which is just T3 and the Absolute Power DLC, at 5.09.

Then there's the Tropico IV stuff, which is thankfully converted!
Tropico IV - £10.19 / $13.59
Tropico IV Strategy Guide - £2.72 / $3.40, or together with the game: £11.38 / $15.29
DLC
Junta Military / Plantador / Quick-Dry Cement - £1.35 / $1.69 each
Modern Times - £11.24 / $14.99

...right. Onto the other stuff! Next is Company of Heroes.
Company of Heroes - £1.39 / $1.99
Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts - £1.99 / $3.99
Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor - £1.99 / $3.99
...and the trilogy is £5.39 / $9.99, which is fractionally more expensive than buying them individually.

Finally, there's stuff with Steamworks. These are:
Portal 2 - £5.09 / $6.79 (they're really trying to flog this, aren't they )
The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim - £23.44 / $40.19

...I'll do the prices in pounds in a minute. Patience, young padawans...

[Darth Marsden]

Today's Daily Deal is Mutant Storm: Reloaded. It's a SHMUP, make of it what you will. £1.99 / $2.49.

[Darth Marsden]

Today's Daily Deal is Steel Storm: Burning Retribution, another SHMUP. £1.35 / $1.69.

Also, The Dream Machine is now available on Steam. I'd recommend it.

[der_ketzer]

Already bought the dream machine this morning.

You're in for a treat if you haven't played it before. I got it for my birthday about a year ago. Unfortunately the episodes are really far between, but I got the impression they're working on the last two episodes simultaneously, so hopefully they'll be able to wrap up the story this year.

Hmm . I read on another forum , that it will come out on 29th of this month with the last DLC ( Harley Quinn's Revenge )

edit : for the consoles .

PC release : 07.09.2012

[Darth Marsden]

Today's Daily Deal is the Commandos Collection. The first three titles, and the stand-alone expansion for the first game. Individually 80p / $1, or £2.40 / $3 as a package. At that price, I highly recommend them.

[figmentPez]

Amazon has Serious Sam games on sale and they redeem on Steam:
- Serious Sam 3 BFE $9.99
- SS the Random Encounter $1.24
- SS Double D $1.99
- Serious Sam 2 $2.49
- SS HD: The First Encounter $3.74
- SS HD: The Second Encounter $4.99

Some are available in a 4-pack for sharing with friends.

[Darth Marsden]

...obligatory mention that you need to live in the US (or have a US based card, wink) to use Amazon downloads.

[Darth Marsden]

Gah, bloody new work hours.

Today's Daily Deal is Lucid, a puzzle game I know nothing about. 1.24, whatever your currency (grr).

Also, there's a bunch of DLC for Anno 2070 out today. It's not on offer, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

At first I was like "nice, a puzzle game", but then I checked the Steam store page and I was like "oh, fuck no". Is there really a need for more games like this?

[Gman5852]

Gamersgate has this nice little sale going on here
http://www.gamersgate.com/games?prio...areenixmidweek

Most notably is Just Cause 2 which is $3.74 separate and $6.25 with ALL the DLC...

My thoughts. Hot dang! I got this for 360, but I am still getting this for PC tomorrow, such a good deal AND such a fun game! Just don't get it if you have XP. Apparantly it doesn't work on that IIRC.
EDIT:Anyone know how long this deal is? I can't get it tonight...
And perhaps anyone that owns the DLC say which ones are good and which to avoid?
