Can recommend alien isolation, I usually get bored of games fast but this one is definitely holding my attention

Anyone played WarGame? It's currently in the flash sale. or do you recommend another franchise for this type of game?

The Wargame series is well worth a punt if you like your RTS. At £1.59 for the first one you cannot go wrong, in fact it's theft !!

Damn wasn't going to buy anything but Banner Saga looks pretty good

Spikey · 14 Jun 2015 at 19:50

Very tempted to buy CS:Go especislly at £5.99!

Tiny Clanger · 14 Jun 2015 at 19:50

Daft question - do daily deals sometimes appear later in flash sales? VERY tempted by Endless Legend at 50% off...

Defense Grid 2 for me today, been waiting for that.

Alien Isolation is just ridiculously good for £7.99 for anyone who still doesn't have it.

I was tempted, but it's been that price several times in the last few months and I'm sure it will be again in the near future (or less!)

@Spacedesk, woops too late! Gonna check what I've missed..

TheVoice · 14 Jun 2015 at 19:59

As good a time as any to recommend my three usual underrated favourites: Enslaved, Spec Ops and Singularity. Enslaved was £3-something yesterday but might go down again, Spec Ops and Singularity are about £6 and £7 respectively so will probably go cheaper at some point.

All superb games that were highly-rated but ultimately not very commercially successful.

FoxEye · 14 Jun 2015 at 20:03

The discounts are such pap this time. Some of the games were cheaper in the last sale!

Either Steam is getting greedy, or I don't know what's going on.

This thread is rather quiet. Steam sale threads usually go like the clappers.

Grabbed Wolfenstein The Old Blood.. well worth £7.50 and so far the best of the three wolfies since RTCW.

eekfek · 14 Jun 2015 at 20:14

I usually don't grab anything from the Steam sales due to other online retailers selling games cheaper, however ......

Space Hulk Ascension Edition + Space Hulk Ascension - Imperial Fists
How to Survive - Storm Warning Edition
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Transistor
Wargame: Red Dragon
Prison Architect Standard
Ultimate General: Gettysburg
Door Kickers
Homeworld Remastered Collection

I have made a few purchases so far !

Any thoughts on Insurgency? The realism seems nice.

Manners14 · 14 Jun 2015 at 20:16

This week has ruined me so far...

In my opinion it has been quite a poor sale by steam standards, maybe that's not helping!

I think there's been a decent selection so far, it's probably more due to people already owning the games they would have bought on the deal. Like the current deals I already own about 7 of them, if I didn't have those I'd be loving this new selection.

It's a really great game. I was a little disappointed that it's shorter than most games of the same type (running in around 7 - 9 hours, whereas games like XCOM can run you into the 50+ hour range quite easily) but it's hard to grumble at for £3.74. Hell, I couldn't even grumble at that downside if it was 3 times that as the game is excellent.

Wondering the same!

ED209 · 14 Jun 2015 at 20:41

I haven't brought any of the games, nothing has taken my fancy and the 1 game I was hoping to get using my steam wallet that ive been saving for has only been reduced by a fiver (10%) so no point getting it

Dr.Fate · 14 Jun 2015 at 20:41

Picked up the Microsoft RTS Bundle - AOE II HD, AOE III Complete, AoM and Rise of Nations. Had all 4 on disc at some point, lost them all over the years.

£15 (80% off) seemed about right for some nostalgia gaming. That's 12 new games so far...

Nothing grabbing my attention in the latest round.

Cheers
