The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread - AUTUMN SALE 2024

[Angthoron]

What I've read in many cases about Patrician IV is that it's a dumbed-down decline for the series. Haven't played it myself, but this is generally held as truth even in mainstream media, so, just sayin'.

 

[20 Eyes]

Thanks, bros. I guess I'll get III. Older graphics aren't as big a deal as dumbed-down gameplay.

I thought I read that first Commandos has some issues with the Steam version on modern OS's. It might have changed since then but you might want to check that out.

 

[AlaCarcuss]

Oooh, just picked up the complete Commandos collection for $3.74 and something called Partricians and Merchants pack that included Darkstar One, Partrician III and The Great Art Race (huh?).. for $2.49.

All up that's less than a happy meal.

Yeah, there are ways to fix'em though if you check the forums - anyway, the tissue I just blew my nose with cost more, so WTF right?

Works without any problems for me on Win7 ultimate, 32-bit. The save/load and speed patch that some guy made that's on steam forums works without any problems as well.

Works fine on 64-bit 7 HomeP too.

Weekend Deal is Serious Sam stuff -- don't bother it was cheaper during the Holiday sale and will probably be cheaper during the Summer sale.

 

[20 Eyes]

Hearts of Iron II and III are also on sale. I'm only getting one. Any recommendations? I've heard III isn't quite as good, but Codex opinions are always welcome.

Edit: Wait, son of a bitch. This is the Steam deals thread, I thought it was the TF2 thread. I HAVE DERPED WITH THE HAT MADNESS

 

[BlitzKitchen]

Yeah, each Railworks 2 DLC is just a goddamn half priced game that comes with... a new train you can drive. Who they market it successfully to I have no idea.

Railworks 2 has 75 pieces of DLC:

$1226.30 ADD ALL DLC TO CART

What. The. Fuck.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

considering how expensive models can get as a hobby I think that is a fair price for anyone who secretly wants to be a train in scenic locations all over the planet that we call home

 

[Metro]

Well, Steam now apparently does daily deals -- today's is Operation Flashpoint for $5.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Well, Steam now apparently does daily deals

OH MY GOD DAMN CHRIST HAIL STEAM HAIL VALVE HAIL GABEN

[deuxhero]

Considering that and exclusives is all I buy on Steam (and is properly priced), that's good

 

[DeathStalksTheLand]

Is Flashpoint worth buying for five bucks?

 

[Metro]

Ubisoft week -- today the Prince of Persia pack is $15.

Get Sands of Time from GOG

Get Sands of Time from GOG

Although I love GOG, it's hard to justify spending $10 or whatever for a single game vs. $15 for the entire collection.

Still on the fence about taking the plunge, Sands of Time is great, the others range from mediocre to good, but I don't know if I really care enough to bother, especially as I already own a couple of them. It's still a good deal all things considered, it's a huge amount of gameplay you get for the money.
