Steam Summer Sale

[Syt]

Had my first boss fight in the new Deus Ex.  God, that's some annoying shit.  Boss fights are so not what this game is about.  Even despite that, it looks like a highly worthy successor of the original Deus Ex.

Funny but true story: the boss fights were outsourced to a different programming team.

I bought Ys : Origin (pronounce Eece, apparently) while it was on Flash Sale.

Holy Hell, the grind. I feel like I'm playing a Super NES game.

I hate checkpoint save? PC game damn it, save everywhere!

I remember play Ys for the SNES.  I had no idea that "Origin" was pronounced "Eece".

[Grey Fox]

It is? It's not!

[sbr]

EU3 is 75% off for the next 11 hours.  Complete is $3.74, Chronicles is $7.49.  Heir to the Throne is $2.50.

Picked up the new Deus Ex.  I can't believe I missed the release of that game last year.

I"m going to try to replay the original before I take start the new one.  It's been like a decade since I played that game.

What's the four flash sales at the moment? It says one isn't available in my region.

What's the four flash sales at the moment? It says one isn't available in my region.

It shows
Dungeon Siege III
EU III
Pendulo Studios pack
and has
Crysis 2 but shows no time left on sale and 0% discount.

[Syt]

Ok, that'll be Dungeon Siege III then, which I bought in a previous Steam sale.

[Syt]

Didn't it get pretty decent reviews?

- DX:HR
- Bejeweled 3
- Terraria
- Civ IV complete (so I don't have to use my disks anymor - yes, I'm THAT lazy)
- Dead Island
- Binding of Isaac
- Batman collection (too cheap to pass up on, though I didn't install that Imposters crap)
- Company of Heroes pack
- Theater of War complete
- Frozen Synapse (anyone want my second license?)
- Orcs Must Die
- Cities XL (yeah, it's supposed to be crap, but how many city builders are there atm? Not gonna wait for new SimCity)

No idea when I'm supposed to play all that crap, though.

Is Just Cause 2 worth $3.74?

Yes. It's my favorite sandbox game*, much more fun then the modern GTA.

*Haven't played Saints Row yet.

[Grey Fox]

The Damage :

Civ G&K + Korea pack + 2 other Civs.
Shoot Many Robots
Ys Origin
Saints Row 3

46.22$ (bought Civ G&K a GMG for 19.50)

Hoping Krater comes back as a daily/flash since it failed the Community vote & for a bigger rebate on Jade Empire

[Syt]

I like the Rail Simulator sale. If you buy all 100+ DLCs it'll set you back over €740, even though most of it is 50% off.

[Razgovory]

Is Just Cause 2 worth $3.74?

Oh yeah.  Game is a blast.  You fly around causing as much destruction as possible.  I do mean fly.  You can and often will steal jets and helicopters and if there aren't any, you have a parachute and a retractable grappling hook that allows you to para sail across the map.
