Lots of games on sale, but I highly recommend picking up The Walking Dead for $6.49 for a single player interactive movie experience.
Oh yeah, you can pre-order Season 2 season pass for 10% off.

Guys, pick up God Mode - it is a really fun (AND HARD) 3rd person shooter - with co-op for up to 4 players! I might just be looking for a co-op group for this right now.
Bought Swapper for 5€ and already finished it in 4 hours. Very short, but nice art style and athmosphere. If you liked Portal, you're probably gonna like Swapper.
Is God Mode really that good ?It's a 3rd person fast-paced shooter, where you have to survive waves upon waves of enemies, advancing along the level. Mechanics are very simple, but effective. Also, you earn gold and XP, which allows you to customise your character and get better weapons/weapon upgrades.

If this sounds ok for you, then yeah, it's a great game, especially for its price.
Me, Nessaj, Xant and Lezard were playing God Mode yesterday (far too late, couldn't get up this morning :( ), had fun, till it eventually went and bugged out at some point.
I would have liked to get Vampire: Bloodlines and Fallout 3 for my steam collection, but both come censored in my country, so fuck it. Valve is really pissing me off. After so many years, still no age verfication system to get rid of market restrictions made for minors...
edit: lol, sleeping dogs comes as "low violence version", too. Think I'll pass.
well i heard god mode was one of the worst games to come out in the last year. apparently it has terrible shooting mechanics and mind numbingly monotonous gameplay.
Overall my thoughts about the sales are "meh." What's up with all the shitty looking indie games that are coming out nowadays? Don't they realize that 8 bit games were a necessity in 1985. But 27/28 years later, not so much. Only a few NES games are still worth playing these days. And I don't see these new platformer/shit graphics games being worth my time or money.

Limbo, Deadlight, The Swapper... all great platformers for no money
Deals on Fallout 3 and New Vegas, Bioshock, Dead Space, Left for Dead, Sleeping Dogs, Both Amnesias, Penumbra, Both Darksiders... all that for less than 5-10 euros/dolars each..
Just because you got a full Steam library and bought pretty much everything you're interested in doesn't mean there aren't many geat deals for the people that don't have a big library or are new to Steam
Didn't see that bioshock deal. Just grabbed it. That's a steal indeed.
I still have a ton of games I need to finish but.. might as well put it on the backlog.
Because gaming is all about graphics. Best you stay with your GTA.
Yeh I still have games from the last Winter Sale I didn't even start :mrgreen:
Why do you care? If people want to play these types of games let them. There are plenty who never were a part of the early console/gaming days due to not being born :P
You had your time! Now make room for others :twisted:
So which of those games were especially shitty? Have you even played any of them? There are probably bad ones, but I have played a few that were pretty good. The best thing about them was that they did something that an AAA title would never do: dare to try something new. It wasn't always in the gameplay (Faster Than Light), sometimes it's just the mood of the game (Limbo), an unusual setting (The Binding of Isaac), the story that is told (To the moon), but sometimes, it's everything (Braid).
And seriously, if you ever have two dollars to spare, and Intrusion 2 is 75% off, you should try it. It's one of those 8bit platformers, but it's great. Short, but intense.
I agree that they are mostly overpriced, though. Not ready to shell out close to 20 dollars for a game that lasts for 5 hours. But a few dollars for a 5h break from the commercially streamlined standardware is a good deal IMO.
If you look at all the games that were made, there's very little link between game budget and game overall quality.Mostly true when it comes to gameplay, but it appears to me that lowbudgetgames have a habbit of being more often quite badly optimized. The grahicspart I wont bring into this, cause graphics stopped mattering long ago.
