Recommend a cheap game on steam!

shamzzz · 15 Sep 2011 at 20:09

I have £6.99 in my account on Steam, because I bought company of heroes completely forgetting i already own it! So i sent them a support message and they refunded the £6.99 to my account.

Problem I have now is I have no idea what game to get with it!

I'd rather not spend any money on top of it, so if anyone could recommend me a good game for 6.99 or less I would be very grateful!

VVVVVV £3.99
Braid - £6.99
Limbo - £6.99
Terreria - £6.99
Portal - £6.99
Half-Life 2 - £6.99

There's an "Under £7" section on Steam.

yeah i've been looking through the under £7 thing but nothing really jumped out at me.

thanks for the suggestions, ill have a look at braid and VVVVVV, I've already played/already own the others

Both very good.

There's a few good games on sale at the moment as well. Kotor is a steal at £3.50 now.

Save it for Thanksgivng/Xmas sales?

Gratuitous Space Battles

Is a good game, never seen it mentioned in these forums but it IS a good game if you enjoy space strategy games. Basically what you do is, look at the enemies forces then choose your fleet from some stock designs, or design your own using those stock designs with different attachments in different placings.

You then watch the battle play out, you don't interact.

You might get addicted, you can download some enemy fleets to fight against that other people have put online.

Try it.

Star Wars Dark Forces 1 and 2. Bargains, bit of 'good old' gaming.

Good spot.

It was definitely £6.99 when I linked it up last night, so must be a special offer for a short while. Grab it while it's there!

anuraj · 16 Sep 2011 at 07:32

Yeah portal is free till 26th may.

Uh.. it was back in may. I doubt the offer will last that long this time round tbh.

anuraj · 16 Sep 2011 at 07:48

Oh yeah May has passed or is it till 2012 may?

CaptainRAVE · 16 Sep 2011 at 09:41
