Now to wait for that Skyrim pack to drop in price a bit, SR3rd as well I think. Already gifted off some To The Moon.

Whoever you gifted it to, I hope they enjoy it. What a fantastic little game.

Indeed, I just had to add in the soundtrack too since it's so cheap and so good.

I mean I have 130+ hours put into my xbox version of skyrim across 3 characters... Not sure if 30 bucks is worth it to start over...

but you get mods

Yeah, but I don't have 130+ hours to deal with mods. I also own Oblivion and Morrowind for the PC, and I've not beaten either one... It's the idea behind, well is the addition of mods worth the time and effort to start completely over.

OH MY GOD IT'S A STEAM.


sale.

I did, I decided to not buy the pc version of skyrim, how's that for my own decision?

I have skyrim for 360 and I love it, but someday when I have a better computer, I plan to buy it again for PC and play with mods. Skyrim is one of those games like final fantasy tactics where you go back to it over and over for the next decade. Buying it twice is perfectly reasonable.

Skyrim with mods is a totally different game. The graphics of a modded Skyrim are absolutely stunning and amazing, making the console version look like dirt in direct comparison. Wars in Skyrim, Deadly Dragons, Player Horse etc. etc. The game's even better with mods. FAR better.

Speaking of Skyrim mods, which of those are essential?
And what about the official addon dlcs?

Both campaign DLCs are very good, but Dragonborn is amazing right away. You have to play dawnguard for a while before you get to the really cool stuff. Dragonborn is great 5 minutes in.

Hearthfire depends on if you're interested in building a house. Take it or leave it.

I see, thank you.
I've installed the legendary edition with all three DLCs included and will keep them switched on for now.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown for 9,99€ and Anno 2070 for 14,99€ ....

"Hey wallet, remember how I promised miniatures would be the only reason for you to be raped?"

".... yeah?"

"I lied."

Xcom?
Why the hell am I still here!
...
Oh dear...

Picked up at the urging of MrDWhitey and purps, Bastion, Mount and Blade: Warband (and the napoleonic expansion), and Dark Souls... WHY DID I PICK UP DARK SOULS?!

Did you get Sins?

No, is it cheaper than it was last night? Also gotta wait until payday near the end of the sale(maybe)

Having some problems with checkout now, keep getting heavy load on steam messages, guessing the sale is rather popular

It doesn't matter.

Because deep down you wish to suffer. You want to be in pain. You crave it, you desire. Welcome to hell!

.. Or maybe you just like tough games like the good ol' days

P.S: Be sure to download the fan-made patch. The game is HORRIBLE without that patch.

Faster Than Light is 75% off. Gonna pick that up.

Keep it friendly folks! We are all in this to get great deals together!

Walking dead for 6€. If you haven't bought it yet: BUY IT.

GOTY 2012.

Pickd up a few games so far:

Dawn of War 2 - I had the expansions/Standalones so why not.
The Walking Dead - Yes I paid £10 or so, but I'm 90% sure it will be worth it even though the price dropped.
Saints Row 2 - Played a bit of the third, want to know the majority of the story behind it.
Just Cause 2 - Holy balls its cheap.

Iv got my eye on a few others:
Farcry 3 - Unsure at ths one, looking to upgrade my GFX card at end of the month and its included in a special offer. Will Wait and see.
Civ 5 - Seems very interesting. Not played any Civ games and kind of want to try it. The demo seems confusing though.
Assassins Creed 3 - I'm really hoping this becomes cheaper, I love the AC games but I'm not happy with the whole "Cod Style" of franchise. If it goes 30%+ off then I may pick it up.


Funnily enough my wallet appears fine my bank account on the other hand must have a sore backside XD

Just Cause 2 is a bunch of fun as a sand box. I would compare reviews of Civ 4 and Civ 5 before you buy...I dumped a bunch of hours in Civ 4 but haven't bought 5 yet.

If you do buy Civ 5, go gold, or get the Gods and Kings expansion. I can't begin to express how much they improve the standard game experience.

Now off to snag FTL

Yeah, civ5 was kind of a let down, but with Gods and Kings it becomes the best Civ game ever. First one that made religion work, and not feel like some tacked on nonsense.

And now Sleeping Dogs for 6,24€ just before the Community's Choice changed... damn it, STEAM! ><

Batman: Arkham City isn't a perfect game, but it's pretty damn good. It's available for 75% off for the next six hours.

If you like jc2 take a look at red faction guerilla. It's explosive fun like jc2 but with different mechanics. RFG has few downsides lack of quick save (aka you fail mission prepare to repeat mission same with jc2) and you have to use gfwl.

Both games get even more fun with mods (superman for jc2 and walker garage replacement for rfg).
