Steam Summer Sale: What's on your list?

Just had a blast on the Sky Drift demo..only £2.37, takes a little while to get the hang of it but using a 360 PC controller is what I use.

Any takers?

I might get it when my new hard drive arrives. No more space left.

I bought it, it's a good price considering F3AR isn't even that old.

Just noticed hitman blood money is on there for £1.50! If you haven't got it you need it. Fantastic game!

I couldn't sleep after playing through Dear Esther. Not because it's scary or tense or anything, but it's just quite a touching interactive story. And damn, the island is an exercise in bleak loneliness - an excellent design example for budding game developers.

You should help promote games

Considering I thought I had bought all the games I had wanted, steam still managed to scrape the following pennies from my wallet:
Alan Wake
Borderlands + DLC
Fallout 3 GOTY
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition
From Dust
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light
Metro 2033
...
As well as treating the better half to L4D and L4D2
...

God help me for the rest of the sale!!!
(Still waiting for A.V.P and S.T.A.L.K.E.R (Chernobyl)

I have this urge to buy AOE 3 purely because of nostalgia, I suppose it isn't on offer much either.. Should I do it??

weyland yutani · 16 Jul 2012 at 20:41

Can any one recommend a good indie game? I always go for triple A games (bought Max Payne 3, L4D2 and Arkham City) but with just a few quid left in my steam wallet I fancy something a little different too.

shootersam · 16 Jul 2012 at 20:41

I have 2 guest passes from when I bought Killing Floor if anyone wants them.

gronf · 16 Jul 2012 at 20:41

Finally got Dear Esther. Will play it in the wee hours and then ruminate over it on my early morning walk

Would maybe get AoE3 if it were half of what it is now, nevermind the 'regular' price Microsoft set :rolleyes:

Fingers-crossed AoE 1 & 2 make it to Steam soon, particularly the 2nd + expansions ~ potentially awesome MP revival there!

badcompany · 16 Jul 2012 at 20:43

galactic civ II is 50% off

strumpusplunket · 16 Jul 2012 at 20:43

Hmmm... four hours left to decide whether Fable 3 (perhaps plus a couple of DLC packs) is worth £7.50 or so.

I did enjoy Fable The Lost Chapters, but I've heard decidedly mixed things about 3...

I was thinking the same thing. I also thought that AOE on steam was 1, 2 and 3. The retail price is silly!

I have only ever played the first Assassin's Creed briefly but found it a bit repetitive. I assume the newer ones are better? Which would be the one/ones to go for?

Tibbz2 · 16 Jul 2012 at 20:44

URGH! So ****ed off because I can't get any money on my account soon, so I will miss Trine 2 sale! For ****ing hell sake :mad:

Personally I thought fable 3 was a steaming pile of turd.

You really need to play them all to understand the story... they definitely get better although I've only played up to brotherhood, unfortunately I did not complete it as the game decided to wipe my save with an estimated hour before completion.
