    Steam Summer Sale 2015

    Here we go again~

    So this year instead of the typical community sales the gimmick is a community-wide incremental type minigame, which unlocks new game deals with certain activity levels on the game [# of clicks, # of monsters defeated, etc.]. (Only problem is that the servers are full to bursting, so unless you got a friend who already has access to the minigame, you might have a hard time getting into it.)

    Also, Rockstar has pulled GTA5 off the steam library, re-released it as a bundle for $85, and are "selling" it for $60. So you may want to avoid them.
    The renegade has betrayed me.

      Rockstar is a myth

      (Honestly hate what they have been doing as a company as of late).

      As for the Sale it makes me wish I held off buying some of the games because they are lower than when I purchased them D:!

          ...WHEN THE FUCK DID BLACK MESA GET ON STEAM!?

          God damn, I was waiting for it and then I forgot and now I see it being early access.

          EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

          All of the other Snivies
          Used to laugh and call him names
          They never let poor Charu

              So that's what happened to GTA5, huh? Wonder what's the story behind that


              Also, am I the only one who can't seem to play the Summer Sale Minigame? Everytime I try to start a new game for myself it'll just give me a connection error, and while I can somehow connect to a friend's game nothing happens on the screen (and trying to rejoin just gives the same connection error.)

                  At this point in time I have so many games that I tend to focus more on earning the unique badge. I've managed to get it each time since Summer 2011 so I don't really want to stop now.

                  The mini-game is decent, if only because you can join a game, level up your auto-cannons, then close it again and let it play itself. I came back this morning after sleeping and spent all the money I had earned and left it to play itself again. Fun through dissociation!

                  And I've bought one game so far: Valkyria Chronicles. I've been meaning to get that for years and now I can finally play it. In a few months (a year...) once I've played a few other games in my backlog.

                          Both XCOM and Valkyria Chronicles are very good strategy games if you're into that kind of stuff

                                  Yeah, I had a game running for about 18 hours. Was around level 280. Got 2 trading cards from it. It's not working right now though. The guide says it resets each day so that might be why, give it an hour or so and it should be working again then.

                                          Because it's just a remake and you could play the original for next to nothing?
                                          Because it's only 25% off and would likely be cheaper in a flash/daily deal?

                                              Yeah, when I saw Black Mesa, I got super excited because I thought that meant they finished Xen and all that good stuff.

                                              Nope

                                              I then went, wow, what the fuck!?

                                              And promptly ignored it.

                                              Still cool to see it on Steam though, but I won't get it until I see it's "OUT" of Early Access and finished.

                                                  There's a few good deals for today.

                                                  Child of Light is worth £3 (~$5). It's a solid RPG that'll last around 6-8 hours and has a fun battle system.
                                                  Rogue Legacy is easily worth £1.50 (~$3). I put near 30 hours into the PC version then, when Sony gave it to me for free, I played it again and got platinum.

                                                  There's also Legend of Grimrock 2. I've only played the original but it was a great dungeon crawler so I presume the second one is just as good.

                                                  Or you could always get Hunie Pop...(I've actually played and beaten it and it can be fun in a completely stupid kind of way)

                                                      It will be updated eventually. I'm not in a hurry and it wasn't expensive. Early access games don't really get massive discounts either. If I wanted another game I'd just get that too.

                                                      Those might be valid enough reasons for some people though.

                                                          Decided to grab Wings Of Vi in the flash sale because it's supposed to be a stupidly difficult platformer and I haven't played one since Eryi's Action in January.

                                                          And what a difference one day makes in that monster game. I was level 270 yesterday when it reset and I'm already at level 685 today with hours to go. Anyone else playing it?
