Ha! Dragon Age Ultimate is showing up as 125% off (-$7.51).

Too bad I already have it...that sounds like a good deal!

Cant believe I missed Bastion..
I know I played it before, and was like meh.. Grabbed it last night when it was $2 and some change and I have been enthralled.. Fantastic game.

I have Brothers from the last sale.. It was another "meh" game for me as well. Guess I better give it a second look too..

I guess its easy to overlook these games when you are buying 4-5 per day during the sales and have dozens in your backlog you need to play..

First time I tried Bastion it I didn't care for it either... but then I gave it another shot about 6 months ago and just loved it, got every achievement even lol. Waiting for Transistor to go on sale now

Dragon Age: Origins

Ya or na?

Definitely Ya. DAO was some of Bioware's finest work, because EA dismantled them.

Some of the Steam forums posts for the Steam version claim Origin still causes problems though, as you have to register the DLC through them.

Anyone played Child of Light?

It looks pretty good from the movies on the store page.

I thought it was a platformer, but apparently it's an RPG with leveling up and crafting and turn based combat - things I like. But, I'd like some input.

Yes sir.

I'll add to this. The graphics are pretty decent. The music/score fits very, very well. Combat is fun, and the game makes it so that all of your characters are useful at one point or another. Also has a decent amount of exploration if you're a 100%er.

I like it :thumbsup:

I was interested in Gone Home and saw it reappear at an even lower price than $4.99 (which wasn't "cheapest ever" on 9+ sites according to cheapshark) which I paid. It is $2.99 now as a community choice, so I checked the price history at steamprices:


Uh huh. The price went up one $/€ before going on sale, likely to create higher sale percentages. Check the upper blue line.

Seems to be a common practice.

Anyone play space engineers? I may just pick up gta 4 since I had it for ps3 and never finished it.

Remember me looks kind of cool I'm just not sure about it yet.

last time that happened, it would work if you had something else in your cart to have a total above $0.

I think that steamprices is probably off. Not that Retailer don't do what you are suggesting, but I have been keeping a semi regular eye on Gone Home and its been 19.99 for pretty much the last 3 months. On top of that 18.99 is a horrible price I would challenge a person after the sale to find me even other Item regularly priced at 18.99.

I watched Gone Home on youtube last night. While an interesting concept, I'm glad I didn't buy it.

I've had Remember Me on my wishlist for a while, but I think I'll wait until Christmas.

Bioshock Infinite Season Pass was on sale last night (might be still on) for $10... I got it for $12 a week or two ago. I am shame.

Ikaruga for 75% off better win the community vote.

If it doesn't, then I don't know how to help you people. Sorry.

Look on slickdeals, there was some place selling it for $6 yesterday and it activated for PC on steam.
