dat autumn Steam sale
or spring if you live on the south hemisphere
The Steam Autumn Sale is great, time to get my cash.
I hope Wargame AB goes further on sale at some point. Same with DMoMaM. Those are really the only two games I want. It sucks too because I bought European Escalation just a little bit before AB, which is apparently a million times better.
Edit: Go to the main store page and then scroll all the way to the bottom. There’s also a wishlist button down there that when you click it apparently takes you to some random person’s wish list.
Edit 2: Can DMC4 be played with kb+m or should I just go straight to a controller?
It just took me to my own wishlist /shrugs
The other buttons go to the pages they’d normally go to as well… but upside down.
(maybe it works differently depending on which season sale you see, North/South hemisphere)
Sweet, Rogue Legacy is on sale. I’ve had my eye on that for a while.
So does the Steam sale end tonight at midnight or tomorrow at midnight? It says it ends on the 3rd.
IIRC they don’t end at midnight they end in the middle/start of the day pacific time.
Damn, it does end tomorrow, doesn’t it. Dishonored went on special, but its DLC never did… I was hoping I could get Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches for cheaper.
I have it on PS3 already, haven’t really gotten anywhere in it. Plus when it’s at 720p on my monitor it looks like shit. Worth getting on PC for the graphics? I could always sell the PS3 copy to someone else…
It’s not all that impressive looking but it looks good enough. If you have a good enough rig you can force sgssaa too, which is pretty cool. I’d get it for the 60 fps though.
Has anyone seen Wargame AA go on one of the daily or flash sales? I wasn’t able to keep up with the sales over Thanksgiving.
Knife of Dunwall is a resounding ‘meh’.

The assets are a bit better than the console versions + you can run it at your native resolution + it runs very well even on older hardware (I got >40fps on a 9600GT at 1920x1080, max settings except for FXAA - which I always turn off anyway). Newer hardware could probably get 120fps and/or run it in 3D.
If you feel like tweaking and have a PC with enough firepower you can get it looking a bit like some of the posts in the Neogaf 2013 PC screenshot thread
EDIT: Wrong thread.
GOG.com 2013 DRM-FREE WINTER SALE
Also, Fallout 1 + 2 + Tactics free for 48 hours.
EDIT: Their servers have been hit pretty hard, might be best to wait a little while
EDIT2: They’ve set-up extra servers, site works pretty well now.
Just Cause is on sale on Steam for midweek madness. Worth it? Six bucks for both titles and all DLC. It seems to go on sale an awful lot.
Me says Aye.
Got the first from a local shop, and the second in a pre-order, had a great deal of fun with both…
(Aw man, that JC2 ending was SO MUCH FUN)

Oh, I might grab that.
