the current GOG motto is "I LIKE IT CHEAP AND UNPROTECTED"

I wish you could activate GOG games on steam

these sales always backfire on me b/c I realize I need to drop 2k on a new computer for a $10 game, smh

picked up Trials 2 (it was $5, not $2.50; J'ACCUSE), Dangerous High School Girls In Trouble, and Colonization

well technically it was the Civ 4 complete pack which includes Colonization but w/e

Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble will probably be one of my last day pick-ups, hoping it goes on a daily

Bought railworks WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

haha! god why would you do that, why

how was that pinball game? i didn't even know it existed

S'alright. Physics modelling is pretty good, and it looks nice, but the table design isn't great. The Pro Pinball titles are old but they're all still totally playable, and are cheap on gog, and this isn't better than any of those.

It's the promise of realistically modelled grim suburban backstreets that sold me on railworks. I just want to sit in first class and look out of the window.

Ha, also, one of the gameplay options is "exit on SPAD"!

Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box (PC)
£0.00 in the UK!

got res evil 5, but maaaan it's crap lol

damn you steam. i'm tempted to get New Vegas even though I just got FO3: GOTY on Monday...

wish that Borderlands sale was just a bit better, I would've bitten on all the DLC, but $20 for all 4 is just OK - they were cheaper during the summer sale!

the daily indie deal has generally been a dog, in contrast to the crazy value of the indie 5-packs

got res evil 5, but maaaan it's crap lol

^^ me, months ago, for more money

I have an extra copy of Monkey Island 2 SE (PC only?) to gift over Steam. If anyone's interested PM me.

with the announcement of Steam's Big Picture Mode at GDC I suddenly really want to build a HTPC just for XBMC/Steam/emulators.

40 Sega Genesis games for $10

Potato pack finally released

http://store.steampowered.com/sub/7586/

goddamn them.

haha.

i almost want to get 1...2...3! (Kick That Beat Like An Ugly Baby) just because i love that title.

Is that still worth grabbing if I've already got meat boy, audiosurf and bit trip beat? Kinda doesn't look it, but there's a lot of things I've never heard of in there.

Amnesia, Defense Grid, Killing Floor and AAAAAAAAA all look awfully good to me too.
yeah, i bought it.

this is also one of those rare packs where you can gift all your duplicate copies

I was just being all "uhh well I dunno, £27 is more than I usually spend" and then I realised that it is 13 games, of which I want at least 4, and I used to have to spend £30 whenever I wanted a single game back in the early 90s when £30 was worth a lot more (PC games were a lot slower to come out on budget then iirc)

so I guess my point is, hooray for the internet, and for Steam and its offers, and for this thread

though I did think I wanted AaAaAA bcz I guess the name confused me into thinking it was like VVVVVV and just watching the video is making me feel weird so eh

(I am not good with heights, or 3d, or games where you have to rotate a lot)

had toki tori for gameboy color and it was quite fun. not sure if the version in this pack is a remake or what, tho.

what's a good inexpensive gamepad to play super meat boy with?

use one of your xbox or ps3 pads
