They were up for about 30 minutes after the sale, but then went to regular price.

Eh...the pack is still on sale.

Saw this posted over on another forum. Just thought some of you might find this interesting.

"Howdy, folks. Allow me to spoil some of the surprises coming up in the rest of this week's sales.

There will be more large packs (like today's HL2 10-pack/Borderlands 6-pack/RUSE 6-pack/Deus Ex 8-pack) every day until the 29th. I'm not sure the exact days that each will happen, or what the prices will be, but here's what the games will be, and the quantities of the packs, so y'all can start to do some basic planning on group-buys:

- Aliens vs Predator (2010) 6-pack
- Audiosurf 12-pack
- Braid 10-pack
- Counter-Strike: Source 6-pack
- Defense Grid: The Awakening 10-pack
- Empire: Total War 6-pack
- Freedom Force 10-pack
- Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City 6-pack
- Just Cause 2 8-pack
- Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West 10-pack
- Left 4 Dead 2 6-pack
- Mount & Blade: Warband 6-pack
- Nyxquest: Kindred Spirits 10-pack
- Osmos 12-pack
- Portal 6-pack
- Puzzle Quest 2 10-pack
- Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale 8 pack
- Red Faction: Guerrilla 8-pack
- Splinter Cell: Conviction 6-pack
- Trine 8-pack
- Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Chaos Rising 8-pack
- World of Goo 12-pack

Also, there will be more packs of indie games similar to today's Indie Energy Pack. 5 game per pack, on massive discount, one day only. Again, I don't know the daily order these will come in, or exactly what the discount will be, but, here's what the names and contents of the packs will be:

- Indie Air Pack: Altitude, DogFighter, Flotilla, Gratuitous Space Battles, Plain Sight
- Indie Clever Pack: Doc Clock: The Toasted Sandwich of Time, Eufloria, Iron Grip: Warlord, VVVVVV, World of Goo
- Indie Pulse Pack: Audiosurf, Beat Hazard, Bit Trip Beat, The Polynomial, Rhythm Zone
- Indie Puzzle Pack: Cogs, Droplitz, Puzzle Dimension, Shatter, Tidalis
- Indie Story Pack: And Yet It Moves, Gish, Puzzle Agent, Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale, Jolly Rover

And of course, there will be more individual games on Daily Deals every day, but I don't have any info on what those will be. You'll just have to wait and see! Also, disclaimer: if any of this info is inaccurate, then oh well."

Meh, it's got 8s across the boards, there hasn't been any good city sims since SimCity4...Darn you for killing it EA! Darn you!

 

[KeithTalent]

I think I am going to finally grab the Batman game. That demo was a hell of a lot of fun.

Not too much else interesting there yet.

[RavenSEAL]

Bought Audiosurf and Grid Defense, too good to pass up for $2.50 ea.


By the way, for those even thinking about K&L2, that game doesn't even deserve to exist, it's a POS. Even @ $5, its a ripoff.

 

[DaveSimmons]

Recettear an Item Shop's Tale for $5, plus several other games, in the Indie Story Pack

Wait...what? None of those are on sale.

I did my best from their site, your turn

It's an awesome game if you like builders with a dictator twist. In a nutshell it's a direct descendant from the original game with updated graphics and sound, gameplay is pretty much unchanged.

His list sounds more like gog.com.

 

[Patrick Wolf]

Hah, just played the Defense Gird demo a few days ago and really liked it, but wouldn't pay $10 for it. Needless to say I jumped. Going to try out the the demo's in the Indie Pack next.

Yea, I know. I saw the list and immediately checked GOG because I though I missed a sale. :biggrin:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Audiosurf+ Hardcore Russian techno= seizure

Batman has, IMHO, the best intro into a game ever.

I'm about 25% through the game and still having fun.

I watched the movie for Jolly Rover. Looks pretty awesome, actually. Reminds me of those old Sierra Space Quest/Hero's Quest games with the snarkiness.

 

[Firsttime]

I bought the Indie pack. Played the Shopkeeper one for an hour an a half this afternoon haha. Seems fun enough, a real timewaster. The other games are just a bonus. 5 games for 5 bucks is awesome, especially when they are this good.

Sweet, going to grab it when I get home and let it download while I'm at the gym. Excited to play it. :awe:

[RavenSEAL]

Damn...i want to grab AA...but i want Just Cause 2 as well...darn you steam and your great sale.

 

[paperfist]

Is STALKER worth getting for $10 if you're a FPS fan?

 

[Gibsons]

Is this the combo pack?

I'm not an FPS fan, but I really liked both CoP and SoC. They have some RPG elements which I think turns off some hardcore fps people.

 

[Voldemort725]

Anyone think that Steam will put Black Ops on sale for Black Friday or Cyber Monday? I'm hoping to snag a good deal instead of buying it for the full 60

LOL, you realize you are talking about COD here right? It took a year for the console version USED to drop $5 and the pc version of MW2 still goes for $60.

 

[Voldemort725]

Eh..it was a small bit of hope
