Do the sale prices fluctuate? I swear blind that a saw Stalker: Call of Pripyat for £3.24! It said -75% off. I went to see some other games, came back to Stalker to buy it and it had gone up to £6.49 -50% off! DAMN IT!

I am 100% sure it was 75% off one moment and then 50% another. I missed my chance

Yes that seems to happen

Steam is so slow....Is steam that busy with the sales or is my internet poop?

Evilsod · 12 Jul 2012 at 22:17

Its not a steam sale without:

"Added to Basket"

Wtf, why is the purchase option greyed out?!

"You already own this game"

Ah...

Even worse is, its the Deus Ex DLC which I only purchased last week!

WatchTower · 12 Jul 2012 at 22:19

I'm very tempted to get the classic Deus Ex stuff myself I'm just worried that I'm looking back with rose tinted glassies. Anyone played the original Deus Ex recently?

Hastarius · 12 Jul 2012 at 22:20

Still looking whether S2:TW is worth it.

I hate the sales. Not only do they entice me in with a sweet deal for the original game but then they lower the prices on the main three packs for the game. £19.99

I'd be happy to pay for that but then they lower all the prices for the DLC units. I'm unhappy that they can't just include all the units into the £19.99 version. If I enjoyed the game I'd be looking to pay an extra £20+ for all the extra units...I hate DLC.

I might pass on it.

I remember trying to get throughout most of the game by just knocking people out.

Jae-So · 12 Jul 2012 at 22:25

Looks like if you have Hard Reset you automatically get updated to the extended edition, the DLC started downloading as I logged in

I think my last attempt I tried it melee weapons only which was... interesting. Once I got Run Silent maxed out it was great fun.

Syther101 · 12 Jul 2012 at 22:34

Really hoping I can download all the game I want without hitting BT's 300GB throttling limit. Already downloaded 50GB this month so 250GB left to share between the steam downloads and my normal downloading. Could come close with having 2 brothers in the house also.

Damm you steam!!! XD

WatchTower · 12 Jul 2012 at 22:36

I so need a higher capacity harddrive.

Sometimes they do - some games they have x number at 75%, y at 50% and so on.

WatchTower, I know what you mean. I could really do with a 2TB+ HDD!
