merry xmas (GOG/Steam direct download weekly specials)

Buncha stuff on sale at Steam. Alien: Isolation for 50% off, etc

SimCity 2000 free. Origin :(

https://www.origin.com/en-ca/store/free-games/on-the-house

Fantastic! Thanks for tip.

Origin account still active from Tapped Out Simpson. Never forget, etc.

Oh man, I wonder if SimCopter still works

Antichamber a mere $2 at Humble Store. Still haven't played it.

btw this current "gems" thing in the Steam market seems like hooey, but I hope they keep the ability to turn gems back into booster packs after the sale. problem is I don't see myself getting 1000 gems or whatever to try it out by that point without just buying a bag of gems from the market...

antichamber still worth playing & i don't feel like i'd say that about some or most of the games i put on my coint and plick ballot

Winter sale time, obv. Tempted to buy Skyrim for £2.50 even though it won't play on my laptop and I'm too lazy to play any games on the desktop (yes that is how much of a casual gamer I am).

So if I vote for the community choice sale I get some virtual trading cards... except I can't claim them unless I become a higher level... and the best way to raise level is... by having more trading cards?

Good job!

Spin Tyres just under 7 quid. hmm

NB despite having no real interest in the trading cards I'm still going on a spree of claiming games from the billion undownloaded Humble Bundles I've bought just to see if I can get my level up high enough, so I guess they've got me

i forgot that you even need a certain level to get trading cards
you probably own a bunch of games you can idle/play to get the card drops from - check your badges page

decent humble bundle, Lovely Planet has a nice Katamari-like feel to it https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

$1 (for Steam keys)
Year Walk
Lovely Planet
The Blue Flamingo

beat the average
Dust: An Elysian Tale
MIND: Path to the Thalamus
Eidolon

$10
Fract OSC

Has anyone played Fract?

christ i should, and i will before i vote on p/c '14, because henk & rich are good fellas

I think I will splurge for Fract.

crap, totally forgot the Steam sale ended at 1pm. ohhh well, probably for the best

bunch of star wars-related stuff in the new humble bundle.

most of it not for mac unfortunately

http://nooooooooooooooo.com/vader.jpg

just pulled the trigger on jagged alliance 2 for the mac for $2.99 on GOG

Sniper Elite III is -70% this weekend, which is sort of tempting. Anyone willing to vouch for it?

Valkyria Chronicles I is half-off, so I grabbed that. I dig the HD remake, since I'm not going to play this on the PS3, and you can jack it up to 1080p and play the game with a XB1 controller.

Game v. much looks like what would have happened if WWII broken out in Miyazaki's Alt-Europe, like we're seeing the war stories of all the parents of Studio Ghibli principles a generation before the films are set.

all of the wargames are bundled on steam for like $13. i'm sure i've asked this before -- anyone have experience w/ them? worth getting?

i feel like once i can beat the 3rd tutorial level for airland battle i'll be prepared to lead a real army

it has been a while since humble bundle had a bundle i really wanted:
long live the queen, analogue: a hate story, go go nippon - beat the average for world end economica, hate plus, roommates deluxe, and hateful boyfriend at 8$ mark - all of them mac compatible except nippon

that is really good!

ok been wanting an excuse to get Analogue for ages plus i am a VN fan plus yeah why not

This indiegala bundle has Double Dragon Neon and the first Blazblue for $4. Karmaflow and Silence of the Sleep also look interesting.

Any of these roguelikes in the latest humble bundle worth playing?

Ooh I haven't played it but Road Not Taken on the roguelikey weekly bundle mid-tier has art from Kukubee who did art for Glitch

pay anything for cook serve delicious (and some other games) in this week's humble bundle. i highly recommend it.

Didn't someone rep Fract OSC in the yearly poll? It's on sale on the Humble Store right now for $3.74.

Also, for Tex Murphy fans, everything not including Tesla Effect (which you should have gotten from that Humble Bundle anwyway) for $2.50

crazy-ass Capcom sale going on Steam this wknd

divekick and vessel for $4. terrian saga looks interesting too.
https://www.indiegala.com/mayhem

Towerfall: Ascension (PS4) is $5 instead of the normal $15. expires 6/2

Me and half the internet are very pissy about the nintendo humble bundle being region locked, but it's still worth jumping on if you're in the US and have a Wii U and/or 3ds.

I rarely bothered to redeem my Desura keys in bundles anymore...

Steam summer sale starts on the 11th thru 22nd
worth noting that there is a PC press conference at E3 on the 16th, interested to see if Valve have any sort of tie in with it

so i think this starts really soon. i'm hoping darkest dungeons goes on sale.

if invisible inc does, everyone should grab it. it's my goty.

got my wishlist ready, bring it

hmmm the metagame is an actual game? can't get it to load up tho.

oh its some cookie clicker bullshit, fuck that
