STEAM: Deals Thread

[Insanecyclone]

Don't buy anything unless it's the daily deal/flash deal until the last day. It is incredibly likely any game you want will go even further on sale at some point and you'll kick yourself for not waiting.

But it's also a double edged sword because it may or may not go on sale again for that price.

Think Witcher 2 will go under $23? Trying to decide when to pull the trigger.

Pretty sure it will. It was a choice in the first community poll, just that that it was up against 2 other big titles.

I'm not seeing those Origin deals at all. Is it just a EU thing?

Yeah seems to be EU only sorry.

fffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck EA origin.

Guess its back to october and BF3 launch

Unless it's a daily deal/flash sale, it stays on sale until the very last day.

A lot of the Amazon download deals for this month are better than what steam is offering atm

How does amazon work? Are the games just their own programs or does it use its own steam-like service?

Most of their games codes work w/ steam. Just need to look near the bottom of the page for "* A Steam account is required for game activation."

[6souls]

you can either activate them in steam or use their own download service

Picked up Portal 2 to play some Co-op with a friend, even tho I didn't care much for Portal 1, wont hold my breath for #2 to be any better, all spoiled don't care might have some fun with the story mode who is to say, 5 bucks was too hard to pass up, considering I got Portal 1 for free when they did the whole tease thing last year for Portal 2.

Is the PC version of Sonic Generations any good?

[Arelian]

With a gamepad, yes.

[Corrderio]

With a gamepad, yes.

Can any gamepad work? Or will only certain ones (Like a 360 controller) function?

[Pabst]

Different game but I been using motion in joy and a ps 3 controller to play walking dead. Just set the option to xbox controller emulator

[Corrderio]

That might work to. I'm usually cautious about PC games that claim they have gamepad support since quite a few don't seem compatible with a large range of gamepads.

Dead Space 2 and Bulletstorm both on sale for $5 on Amazon. Can't decide between the two, trying not to spend too much. Still want Ys Origin lol, camping that shit for a potential extra price cut.

I already have it on xbox, but is sonic generations capped at 30FPS like consoles or can it run up to 60?

[Kaisha]

It can do 60.

[Hitoshura]

PC Master Race is definitely 60FPS

Dead space 2 is awesome, but I highly recommend playing in the dark with headphones on. It adds so much to the atmosphere.

I haven't had that much fun playing a horror/3rd person shooter in so long, that game is definitely up there for me.

[Hitoshura]

I actually decided to buy it, downloading. Think I am going to watch the original Thing movie while I wait since the client is sapping all my bandwidth. Can't wait.

[Salodin]

You won't be disappointed!
