I'm going broke from all these cheap ass games.


I've been refurbished and reissued, prepackaged and precooked, decontaminated and deloused, but I still smell, sound, look and feel like shit.

L4D2: $37
Half-Life: $3.99 (not now... was a long time ago, far far away)


It is ok to make fun of America. But if you make fun of any other country in a vague or joking way you get banned.

Half-Life was $0.98 on its 10-year anniversary (came out in '98).

Eh, the super deals today aren't all that great, besides BF2, which I already own. It still implies there are more to come when the timer reaches zero though, so I hope this isn't the last batch, because there are still a few games I want to get but I'm holding out to see if they get on the deal list.

It says it lasts all the way to January 3rd.
Or maybe I missed something?

The general sale on so many games lasts until January 3rd. (So Dawn of War 2 is going to be half-price at £10 until then, also you should really buy that game).

But the daily offers reset daily, so once the timer reaches zero they return to a normal price. Just to clear it up.

I'm hoping for UT3 to be a daily sale, Because I've been thinking of buying it (Never tried but good reviews and sounds good), but I'm really trying to save up £230 so I can get a proper gaming PC monitor

Don't waste your money.

The community for UT3 is dead. Even UT99 probably has more players.

Yeah, this is pretty much true. I got the Unreal Pack a while ago when it was on sale for a pretty good deal, and I was having a hard time finding good games in UT3 that weren't full of bots. UT 2004 and the original UT still have a pretty decent community though.

That's because UT3 is utter garbage.

I really want Killing Floor and this little Gem right here but the thing is I can't pay for them 'cause I don't have a paypal account or a credit card or anything like that.
I have an offer for yers though: I'll buy NG stuff for 20 bucks + shipping for the one who gifts me those two. PM me if you are interested.

No really, PM me. I want those games.

I have both those games, they're okay, I didn't really enjoy them though. If you wait until Monday I'll gift them to you (for free) as it is the season of giving! (get my funds on monday).

What's your steam name?

My Steam account is called 'Racoonmario'. And that is quite generous of you, but I really gotta give you something in return. After all, it's the season of giving.

So I got that Star Wars Premier pack, since I haven't played a lot of those games, specifically the Jedi Knight ones, and I never got around to beating KOTOR. I have no interest in Galaxies though.

But, after buying it and looking through my list of games, I noticed KOTOR was nowhere to be found. I got jipped a game! Anyone else ever have this problem with Steam?

I had a few days without buying anything on Steam up until now as I just bought Day of Defeat: Source. I thought this game was in Counter-Strike Complete pack but turns out it's not, so it's a good thing that game was on sale today for me to catch. I'd get Dead Space as well but seeing as I got a PS3 for Christmas, I'll save it for that. Here's hoping more games I'm after will go on special deals as I still have a lot more to get.

It's good old zombie killing action with some kinda level up system. I'd say yes, especially with that price.

its fun, and it makes it more intense knowing that your all alone having to take down hundreds on mutant/zombies.

but online, ITS JUST FUCKING SWEET.

Torchlight is pretty good, but Foreign legion sucks.

Also, anyone else gonna get Mr Robot? Its like £1.19 ($1.82) and is a fun INDIE platformer.

Foreign Legion is really fun. All it needs is online multiplayer and some bug fixes.
