    You know, I honestly can't think of any game I don't have right this second that I really want on Steam. Between Fallout: New Vegas, TF2, and Mass Effect alone, I have little time for new games.
    Same, except for I don't have any of those games (EDIT: oh yeah, I do own TF2 but never play it), and I have lots of time for those games but little patience.

    The way Scott is about board games I am about video games. "Seen it." "Seen it." "Same thing, different skin." "Oh boy, this looks fun! Sweet level 3... k it's all the same again." "Solved." "Does anyone actually try anymore?" "Fuck video games."

    As much love as I have for games like Dwarf Fortress, I still don't play even those that much. I live in a sad world of loathing.

    Anything actually novel coming out that I should care about and maybe look at on Steam?

    img of South Park
    Yeah, I mentioned that about myself in the Dating thread, I think. That would be a fantastic episode to be the very last episode of South Park ever.

  • I like to use steam sales as a time to collect on debts. I remind people of the circumstances that caused them to owe me money, the amount of money they owe me, and then request games totaling that amount or less. I kept being away when Super Meat Boy was on sale over last Christmas, so here's to hoping that it goes on sale again. And maybe I'll pick up HL1 if it is sufficiently cheap, if for no reason other than the cool mods.
  • If I recall correctly, I got HL1 for free because of my graphics card.
  • I got HL1 for like a dollar at a garage sale, activated it on steam and got a whole bunch of shit free like CS 1.6 because I guess the code worked as the Half-life collection thing.
  • I got a kid to give me his HL1 CD-KEY in high school. The day Steam came out it detected a legal HL1 on my machine and gave me all kinds of stuff for free like CS and DoD. I bought HL:2, HL:2 Episode 1, and Orange Box on Steam. Because of the way it worked out I had to buy Half-Life: Source on its own during some crazy sale. I'm pretty sure CS:Source was free for me as well. Don't have DoD: Source, though. I never understood that game anyway.
  • I bought a half life box set with 4 expansions once for $10. They all came with a code and, if I recall correctly, they all registered as a HL1 cd key, so I just have a ton of keys lying around. Whisper me if you're interested...

    But do not be surprised if I... ahh... collect on a debt at some point :P
  • half life box set with 4 expansions
    That's impressive when you consider that there were only two expansions for Half-Life 1.

    (Unless you mean Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat (or CS:Condition Zero))
  • Yeah, those two.
  • Never played CS:CZ.
  • Killing floor is having some event on the 30th this month. Just a hunch but this tends to be tied to some sort of sale, if you catch my drift.

    Got Killing Floor because it was mad cheap a long time ago. It sucks.

    I don't know, I didn't get to play it enough to really make a decision on it, a few of my friends on steam played that game religiously for a while.

    I'll agree it's not exactly a pinnacle of gaming, but it's decent enough for a laugh with friends.

    Well, it's certainly no Custer's Revenge, but it's not like I'm going to be spending a great deal of time on it.

    Nor I, admittedly. It's the kinda thing I'd play while just hanging out and talking shit online, where the game isn't really as important, or as a simple, cheap game to play with friends. It's like novelty maps in counterstrike or TF2, or playing some game with insane rules on smash brothers when you're drunk with mates - It's completely shits and giggles, kinda Meh alone, but in the right time and place, it's good for some laughs. I've also had a few cracks at it as a warmup game when playing online with friends, because it's simple and not hugely hard, enough to give a little bit of stretch to the metaphorical muscles, but not enough to be a serious exercise.
  • Looks like the Summer Sale will be starting soon.

    There's a couple thousand things listed in the Specials page.
  • Feels like we just finished the holiday sale.
  • Interplay games as half off at Good Old Games. I may pull the trigger on Fallout 2 (played the first one about a year ago).
  • Feels like we just finished the holiday sale.
    I feel like I just got my Gamecube...
  • Too many good sales everywhere, not enough money that I'm willing to spend.
  • Also, loved MDK 2 back in the day. May just buy again to play around with it a bit.
  • My bank account. Oh Jesus, my bank account.

    Holiday sale where I barely bough anything, because I had gotten most interesting games on previous summer sale. Let's see if there's something new and interesting this year.
  • My bank account. Oh Jesus, my bank account.
    It helps if you abide by these simple rules.

    1. think of games you want now
    2. add them to wishlist
    3. only buy them if they appear on the front page specials
    4. if they don't, buy them on the last day
  • It's almost impossible for me to get to the steam store right now.
  • Square Enix / Eidos Collector Pack saves you $328.50. It's kinda crazy, but I'm not buying it.

    God damn Valve, selling games for cheap!
