Pleased with my purchases, spent a little over £30 in the end, though the sale didn't pick up for me until about half way through.

I bought :

Batman Arkham Asylum - (playing it right now and loving it, initially after the demo I didn't think it would be for me, how wrong I was. Best game I've played this year so far).
BFBC2 - bought for the SP really which I've completed, enjoyable, £5 well spent.
Fallout 3 GOTY edition.
Just Cause 2. Quite looking forward to this one.
Amnesia...
Universe Sandbox.
ME2.

I don't think it's possible to do so many pricing errors in a controlled sale.

I'm pretty sure they're doing it deliberately to attract attention and possible gain a few more sales by misleading unaware customers.

Yeah it's bang out of order, really. Isn't it classed as false advertising? Steam are bait and switch scammers.

Is Borderlands any good? Looks a bit fallout-ish.

Very good and a great price atm.

Pretty bloody annoyed with the whole Retribution issue, saw it at £7.49, was going to buy and then it changed! :mad:

dante6491 · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:49

Anyone recommend any of the summer prizes? Already have DOW2:R helmet thing but still have 10 tickets (3 prizes left).

sammo62 · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:50

I really hated Empire, but I'm loving Shogun 2 so far. Glad to pick that up in the deals.

gronf · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:51

Missed Frozen Synapse when it was up days ago, but thought it would be in the best-of...nope

Oh well, I'll get it eventually.

Semiskimmed · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:51

im am really dissapointed with the last days selection

GTRacer · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:52

£83.58 in total for me, although I hardly have any PC games since I've been using my PS3 more. £3.98 per game isn't too shabby.

Vtec9k · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:54

Well decided to pickup Fallout NV + DLC.

Not a bad sale really, only spend about £25 if you exclude DCS Black shark and A-10C.

Murray · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:56

Not getting Dawn of War now anyway.

GTAMADDOG · 10 Jul 2011 at 18:57

Up to now I've bought:

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Company of Heroes
Fallout 3
Left 4 Dead 2
Medal of Honor
Railworks 2

Also bought Amnesia: The Dark Descent last week during the sale time but not actually from the sale. Don't even care that it was in the sale and I spent double the price getting it, because it's awesome.

Grand Total:
£37.02

Or excluding Amnesia: The Dark Descent:
£30.53

Just trying to decide whether to get Assassin's Creed 2 or not, probably won't though as I left it when it was a Daily Deal as well as during the last sale.

privateeye0 · 10 Jul 2011 at 19:00

Bought over past week:

Anomaly: Warzone Earth
Batman: AA GOTY Edition

badcompany · 10 Jul 2011 at 19:01

Alien Breed 2 is a complete standalone game.

Depends on what you own - the 4x Defense Grid maps are insanely good fun, and great value too; even more so for free.

matt1 · 10 Jul 2011 at 19:01

Bit annoyed I missed out on ME2, was hoping it would be back today. Will have to get it at Christmas!

7 Jul 2011 £1.74 Company of Heroes
6 Jul 2011 £3.74 Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY
3 Jul 2011 £5.77 Magicka Complete Pack (June 2011)
2 Jul 2011 £5.00 Battlefield Bad Company 2 Standard Edition
2 Jul 2011 £1.74 Star Wars: KOTOR

£17.99 isn't too bad. I gifted L4D and Magicka packs aswell.

opethdisciple · 10 Jul 2011 at 19:01

Is just cause 2 worth £5?
