Steam Summer Sale 2013
« on: July 12, 2013, 12:08:46 AM »
It's that time again.  Post here about stuff that is real cheap I guess?

-Currently BioShock Infinite is half off.  It's a very good game so you should think about getting it.

-Skyrim Legendary (the version with all the DLC) is $35 bucks.

-Fallout New Vegas: Ultimate Edition is 11 bucks.  BUY THAT SHIT IT'S GREAT.

-Most of you either have already played DA:O or aren't able to appreciate why it's better than animu trash but the version with all the DLC is 9 bucks.

-Civ 5 gold edition (base game, all DLC, Gods and Kings... basically everything but BNW) is $25.

-Sega will sell you basically the entire Sonic franchise for $15.

-The Last Remnant is $3.40.  I guess that's some people's thing?

-There's a ton of quality indie games for between 2.50 and 5 bucks right now.  Stuff like To The Moon, Hotline Miami, FTL and so on.

Just remember:

Last Remnant is actually very good if you're into really complex stat systems and such.  You know, like the entire DL.

Civ V: Gold edition (includes all DLC except Brave New World) is on sale for 12.50. Brave New World is on sale for 20 bucks. If you like 4X games at all I highly recommend it. It's a flash sale so it's only available for few more hours.
Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

BNW is incredibly goddamn great. That one is done though. Now you'll have to be content with X-COM and Darksiders II for ten bucks and Telltale's Walking Dead for like 6.50. I cannot stress enough how people need to play TWD.

The 400 Days DLC is not on sale (it is, after all, like a week old), but you should probably go ahead and buy it anyway.

So the FTL devs are matching the Steam price when you buy direct from them, which is pretty neat. If you're only paying $2.50 for the game, might as well send it all to them.

NBA2K13 is 7.50. I think that's a fair price for the latest version of... probably the best sports franchise currently running. Plus it's got the '92 Dream Team in it, so you can destroy everything in your path if you don't wanna try.

Scribblenauts Unlimited is back at 75% off on flash sale.

Sleeping Dogs is at 75% off. In my opinion, by far the best game of its kind.

Mark of the Ninja is 75% off. Excellent stealth platformer.

Dust: An Elysian Tail is on sale for the rest of the day. Only 50% off, but so, so worth it. So far I'm comfortable calling it one of the best platformers I've ever played, and IIRC the DL is pretty friendly to Metroidvanias.

Serious Sam 3, four bucks for the next 7 hours. DLC, 99 cents. The "classic" original games, sixty cents a pop. SIXTY CENTS. Remastered versions run less than two bucks each. Or you can get the entire friggin' franchise for $9.50.

I know the Serious Sam games have some of the feel of old-school FPSes. Do they just have the run and gun with more than two fucking weapons aspect (which is good enough), or do they have the exploration and resource management elements as well?

Abso-freaking-lutely, especially on the exploration side. You're even scored on how many secret areas you managed to find in each stage, just like in the old days.

The full-franchise pack for that one is worth buying too. The first game is still well worth playing even with the second one around.

Sold. I miss that style of FPS.
