Definitely go for Tropico 4. Picked it up at 66% off and been having a blast. Made away with the Tropico Trilogy today.

Yeah, for the price I'll risk it. I like city builders but I suck at them so I always get frustrated before I complete what I want to because I'm not micromanaging enough. Sounds like this has some options I'll like though allowing me to just build and stuff without much issue.

Bought a few games, and I've been holding off on some.

I'm surprised that I haven't been storing many games in my inventory like usual. Probably doesn't help that I already have extra copies of the good games. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to get your (real life) friends to play a game for free... much less play with you!

Taking some solace hoping my compuker can't run some of these things gloriously, but downloading said demo as we speak.

Orcs Must Die! isn't a terribly demanding game. If you've played Sanctum, the games are similar, but in my opinion, Orcs Must Die! is a far better game. I played Orcs Must Die! before Sanctum, and I just couldn't get into the latter. Just didn't feel as fun or fast paced.

I want to buy L4D2. Would somebody revive Steam please.

L.A. Noire vs. Alan Wake... this is a tough one.

So far I've picked up the first indie bundle (mainly for Cave Story+) and Renegade Ops.

I have all three of the games in this community's choice (and, of course, haven't played any of them yet (though with Alan Wake I have an excuse, since I just got that earlier in the summer sale)). What to pick? Hmm.

Damn, those are all good games... eh, I'll just vote for Amnesia. One of my favorite games from my favorite developer.

$58 total spent so far on the sale. 21 games. That's ~$2.90 per game on average.

(Granted, I've mostly been buying games $5 and under. The only exception was Dead Island, which was still only $7.50 because it was a group-buy with gothamhunter.)

Edit: I lied, ended up voting for LA Noire because it deserves more attention.

Oh my, The Witcher 2 for 16 dollars I don't know if I can possibly resist but I keep thinking it might hit -75% (10$) later D:

I doubt it. It didn't win the 66% markdown vote early on with the flash deals (which would've been $13.20) so this feels like a consolation discount. At best they might revive the deal on the final day.

Yea I figured best case scenario would only net me 6$ dollars and its too much of a risk to pass up such a great game so I pulled the trigger. I LOVED TW1 and can't wait to play 2.
Only wish Skyrim was 20 dollars and not 30 :biggrin:

Hmm I realized that Kingdoms of Amalur isn't even on sale (was a recommendation on The Witcher 2). How lame!

Hey, can someone with screenshots on their Steam profile add me a friend?

My last achievement to get a badge is to comment on a friend's screenshot and my only friend doesn't have any!

Steam name is wiseup216. Thanks.

While everyone revels in the seconds one I'm just excited about The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director's Cut for 2.49.

Now let's see GTA and Dragon origins at 75% off.

Wait. I bought Alan Wake for $7.50 yesterday on whatever extra sale it was.
This is going to put it back on sale (if it wins) for the same amount... they're doing that?
