Steam sale now .... Off

[CaptainRAVE]

Ended up getting Black Ops 3 having just also bought Ghosts. I’ll stop there since the rest will no doubt be on gamepass soon.

Finally bought Disco Elysium, couldn't say no at just over 3 quid.

Tempting. Too many games to play first though. At least I have a PC backlog again. I also have a few gamepass games to compete.

Mass effect legendary addition for a fiver - sure why not!

I managed to play the intro bit of battlefield 5, and now every time I start it it babbles about anti cheat something and won't load
I'll probably be getting my 3 quid back then.

So far I've only bought Forza Horizons 4, both Zero Escape games and a lot of DLC for Train Sim World 4. I do have £30 in my Steam wallet from a refund though... what to buy.

Did buy Hogwarts via Greenman, took it down to 17 quid.

Check out The Bug Hunter and Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved. Don’t know if they’re in the same but they currently peanuts on Steam and are addictive fun games. Perfect for the SD

Good tip, always worth a quick glance at the key sellers before buying as they try to beat Steam sale prices on the odd game.

Disco is a brilliant game.

Yip picked it up myself and played about an hour so far. A little weird to say the least.

Bought two games the other day which were cheaper on Steam then elsewhere (well, from what I could see anyway). They both been on my wish list for ages, so now just have to get the time to play them as well !

The Steam reviews don't look good for these. Might want to keep an eye on the play time so you can get a refund.

Bah, I was going to get Witcher 3 but notice it's Windows only, still not Deck compatible, even though it runs on the Switch?!

When I look on Steam it shows as verified and fully compatible for SteamDeck?

Is it? I am just looking at it on the app on my phone.

That's what I see

to be honest i dont trust those ratings anyway, i have a bunch of games which work on my deck which are not officially supported. you could always buy on steam and refund if no dice.

Install Decky Loader plugin manager and install the Proton DB plugin, all seamless. Will show you on each games page whether it is Platinum, Gold, Silver or Bronze rated, as regards the level of Deck compatibility and steps to take to maximise compatibility. I think it will only show once a game has been installed though. But it is just a link to the ProtonDB web site in reality, so you can just go to the ProtonDB website direct on any PC to check any game. The plugin just allows you to check directly on the Deck.

Picked up Telltale The Expanse so far, first time bought a game on Steam sale in a few years, usually cheaper elsewhere.

That’s definitely on my list, forgot all about it.

Tempted by a few more CoD titles, but I know they’ll be on gamepass soon!
