Steam Summer Sale: What's on your list?

HangTime · 22 Jul 2012 at 16:40

Should be daily deals at 18:00 although past history suggests they will be a 'best of' selection of previous Daily Deals.

Given that most Daily Deals have already been done on Flash/Community deals anyway, I wouldn't hold your breath on seeing anything new.

Key thing you will need to do tonight is a sweep of all the publisher packs and other discounted games that haven't been on Daily/Flash/Community sales, there are some pretty good deals to be had.

Is Galactic Civilizations II, worth picking up?

Definitely! It's the only 4X space strategy game I could get into.

Pighardia · 22 Jul 2012 at 16:42

Galactic Civ 2....Oh go on then.

I have voted for Mirror's Edge in the next one, as it is the only one I do not have.

Trine 2 is a steal, is the co op any good?

Co-op worked for me on launch, then they updated the game and some people have series network issues - nothing i do seems to work, so buyer beware. Great game though

Restarting router didnt work
New router didnt work
Opening ports didnt work
Disabling firewall didnt work
Enabled/Disabled jumbo frames didnt work.

Perhaps my fault for having a rubbish TP-Link router

Why do people keep moaning about repeats in the community votes and flash sales?

In previous sales we didn't have the option at all, just the daily sales which lasted 24 hours, now they're 36 hours with a possibility of a repeat if you missed them.

They didn't have to give us a sale at all!

So quit your moaning

I have to agree fully. I missed one or two deals which I was then able to get on there repeat sales.

But then they wouldn't of made millions out selling all them games people would have never bought or even thought about buying at full price

I bet these sales rake in millions...

Ready for the all-in shove?

Marky · 22 Jul 2012 at 17:54

Well well well... last day of the sale...

This is usually the day where I spend the most

Any thoughts on "RAGE"? Worth £10.19? From the looks of the screenies, it looks a little Fallout-ish?

DailyGeek · 22 Jul 2012 at 17:54

My Hard Reset Extended Edition review has just gone live, so I'll link here as it's still on the Steam sale

It has problems on first release and just died.

Bit like BRINK really!

I may get Brink if it comes back up..
I really want War for Cybertron but I don't think it's going to happen

Overall, very nice graphics (nice lighting), though some textures look poor, very poor indeed (a bit all or nothing in that department). The addition of role playing mechanics is a welcome bonus imo, and the combat is great! Worth a tenner.

Yeah I thought about getting Brink when it was on sale... I think I'll crack if it comes up in this last sale
