Steam Sale Spotlight

[Darth Marsden]

Daily Deal's coming later, but in the meantime here's another pretty impressive offer on Steam games.

Get Games is having another 2 for £7 offer, and all the games are on Steam. They are:
- Alien vs. Predator (2010)
- Company of Heroes (Gold)
- Jet Set Radio
- Just Cause 2
- Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days
- Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter

Not quite as great as the deals the site's had in the past, but it's still pretty good. Just... avoid Kane & Lynch.

[RetroVortex]

Aw crap. I have all of those.

I caved in and got Dark Souls. Dammit.

EDIT: Also I recommend Jet Set Radio and Just Cause 2 if you don't have them.

Jet Set Radio is actually a pretty good port, and my best friend absolutely loved Just Cause 2.
(I haven't played it YET because I don't think its a game on can just jump into and play for a bit)

[Darth Marsden]

Forgot to mention (because it never stops getting old) that you need Windows Vista or above to play Just Cause 2.

Also, there's a bunch of other offers at Get Games. Serious Sam, F.E.A.R, Civilization...

c-c-c-Combo Breaker!


I haven't played any of these games. Not even Nuclear Dawn, which has been given through free-to-play weekends, discounts and holiday giveaways out the wazoo.

Are any of these games actually any good?

Never played 'em. They're either multiplayer only (bleh) or just not my type of game.

Nope. Fray had a LOT of potential but shipped so broken and crippled that the couple cool things it does simply can't be enjoyed the way they should be. I don't know if they've patched it since launch but if I am willing to say "It had cool ideas but isn't worth playing because it's broken" then you damn well better believe it is rendered unplayable.

No. They are all pretty much garbage.

Well you could also do another thing. Close this thread. This way only mods can post here and even Vanomionadingdongadong would be very pleased with you. Think about it!

Yes. You also like The Binding of Isaac, whether because or in spite of how "cutesy-gross" it is, I'm not sure.

I'm not saying all of your taste in games is flawed, but I couldn't stand to play that game for very long at all.

I could. But that would require effort on my part, so I'll let it slide. THIS TIME.

Oh, before I forget - I'll be back late tomorrow, so you actually have permission to post the Daily Deal this time.

A TON of people did and still do play the game for hours. Maybe it's your taste that's flawed.

@Darth Marsden: Now I don't want to any more

Then I guess my taste is flawed as well, 'cause I didn't really like it either.
