Steam sale - what have you picked up?
So far for me -
Star Wars KOTOR
Saints Row The Third
Trine 2
The Walking Dead
Hoping Dead Space 1 and 2 come up in this sale. I want to go through them on Master Race and offload the PS3 games.

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
Pretty tame so far for me.
Crusader Kings II
Tropico 4
Binding of Isaac
Dead Space was a flash sale yesterday. But it's cheaper in the US, was still $18 here.
Hoping for Driver San Francisco or the Civ 5 expansion.
Good to see you getting in on Saints Row Candy

$15 for it, worth the risk.

Trine 2 is absolutely gorgeous, and fun to boot. As is the first one

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
The Walking Dead is great Candy, definitely worth playing through each part in one sitting at a time (roughly 3hrs each ep). I picked up the Season Pass for PS3 and have enjoyed both so far (and I've never seen the show, nor know anything about the comics).
I didn't even know there was a sale. Tempted on a few games, but nothing really stands out, although I am tempted to see what this Dear Esther is about, even though the Metacritic doesn't seem too favourable. I've definitely never heard anyone talking about it.

Picked up Bioshock 1 and 2 as although I own 1 on the 360 I far prefer mouse and keyboard for FPS'es. Also got one of the indie bundles for Botanicula, and picked up From Dust and Trine 1 and 2.

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
As much as I'm loving the Assassin's Creed franchise at the moment, I'm not sure I could recommend picking up PC versions of them.
When I had issues with the 360 version of their Uplay system, I was reading up on Ubi's boards, and it seems that the PC version of uPlay (which acts as DRM as well as a store) is seriously screwed up. Keys not working, games not playable, savefiles being lost, etc.

I didn't end up getting the AssCreed games, sounds like I made the right choice. Thanks Seraph

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
It's unfortunately a case of DRM = Deters Real Money. The console versions don't suddenly stop working when Ubisoft can't keep their shit together, but the PC versions will have better performance (given a PC with sufficient grunt). As a result, if you don't care about the multiplayer portion of the game, a pirated/cracked PC copy is the best decision.

Dead Space 2 is a flash sale Candy. US pricing is better though so get someone to gift it to you.

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
Far too fucking much. Sitting at $135 at the moment. But that has netted me Rayman Origins, Max Payne 3, Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, AssBro, Arkham City, Race Injection/On/GTR:Evo... amongst other things.

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
that's a fuckton. I think I'm up to around $40 for myself, but I've probably sent another $25 in gifts.

Got Driver today
Just waiting for Anno to drop now. Probably will be only 50% so it's unlikely I get it.

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
It was $5 mid June.
What is the current Communities Choice game? Says it's not valid in my region, yet prior to this we could vote on all three. I think I chose Two Worlds II.

Re: Steam sale - what have you picked up?
Well I paid $4 for Burnout Paradise Ultimate Box...
...but I never paid for Driver. Shaneus gifted it to me in return for teaching him to cheat at driving games.
