current flash sales:

Is Driver fun?  I like the idea of a more arcade-like open world racer.

*yawn*

Oh, there's a sale?  It all looks the same (probably because they were all on sale a few days ago).

Is Driver fun?  I like the idea of a more arcade-like open world racer.

I played it on 360 when it first came out and I thought it was awesome.  It is very much worth the $7.50 if you have any interest. 

The vehicles have a great weight-y feel to them so you feel like a muscle car super hero, and then throughout the whole game they keep layering on other cool mechanics and surprising gameplay elements.  It was one of the few games that I finished and just wanted to keep playing more.  In fact, I want to go back and play it again now!

Thanks, just picked it up for $7.

Really fantastic game.

[Zarkon]

If you do not have Burnout Paradise, get it now.  $4

Also, Risen for $5 is a good deal.

Other than that, still a shitload of repeat items up on the sale.  *goes back to sleep until 8 PM*

[Teggy]

You can play Risen for free via Void - that at least has me holding off until the Xmas sale.

[CeeKay]

Braid is now on Flash sale for $2.49: http://store.steampowered.com/app/26800/

[CeeKay]

not sure if this a glitch, but Risen 2 is showing as being on flash sale too: http://store.steampowered.com/app/40390/?snr=1_7_suggest__13

33% off is bunk.

Damnit...  I went to sleep a little while after I got home from work yesterday, very long week..., just now woke up and saw this...  Guess I missed it, cause it's now $9.99

[mirage775]

Agreed!  Short game, like 4-6 hours, but worth $5!  I paid $60 for it and had a blast!

Nice!  Bought them, but says it's not available until tomorrow???  I bought Hot Pursuit, when it was released, for the 360, but never played it, lol.

[Teggy]

Are they going to have a recap day? Because they been repeating stuff starting early on. Maybe tomorrow will still have some new deals.

[Zarkon]

Doubtful.  It's the Steam 'Let's Repeat Everything Fifty Times' Sale.

[Isgrimnur]

Yeah, I'd rather have had the sale run for a week with the Flash Deals either being nonexistent or at least something that's not going to preceed/follow the same deals on the Dailies.

[EddieA]

I'm considering buying Arkham City and its DLCs.  I already have the game on Origin, but they don't have the DLCs and I haven't seen anything to indicate they'll get them.  Even if they do eventually offer them, it would be cheaper to buy AC and all its DLCs on Steam than to buy just the DLC at full price on Origin.  I don't mind having a bunch of different clients, but DLC is definitely a problem.

[Crawley]

Hmm...might get Evochron. Had a nice write up in PC Gamer.

I'm thinking the same thing.  I've been meaning a version grab one since Renegades.

[Isgrimnur]

I've been meaning a version grab one since Renegades.

I'm passable in LordMortisese and I still can't parse this sentence.

wow, and I'm perfectly sober too   I've been meaning to grab a version since the Renegades one.

[frost]

well, i finally took the plunge and made a purchase, Arma 2: CO. 

Is Red Orchestra any good? 

Interested in Walking Dead, but by the time i'll have a chance to play it, I'll probably be able to pick it up for $10

[CeeKay]

Age of Empires won the Community Vote and is now the price it should normally be anyways: http://store.steampowered.com/app/105450/

Is Red Orchestra any good? 

I have a Steam key for Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 that I got from an indie bundle.  I don't have any interest in the game, so it's yours if you want it.

Anybody have any hidden gems before the sale is over?  Everyone complains about all the repeating dailys and flash sales, but sssshhhhh.....a lot of other games have been on sale throughout too....

The Kohan Warchest is USD 4.99 and for adventure game people Syberia and Still Life bundles are USD 3.74 each

[CeeKay]

just a heads up:  I noticed that today's deals are only up for 24 hours unlike the 36 hour deals they've been having.

I dunno if they're gems but I did pick up the following games which were pretty cheap but never went up for an additonal sale price reduction:

Hard Reset: Extended Edition - $3.75
Pixel Junk Eden + Soundtrack - $3.00
Geneforge Saga: $9.99
Wizorb - $1.79

[CeeKay]

I thought about getting the Geneforge Saga, but I have Avernum 1 (hopefully 2 &3 get updated like 1 did) plus 4-6, Eschalon 1 & 2 and Avadon still in my backlog, so I think I'll be good until the holiday sale 

[Teggy]

Well the final flash sales are up <sniff>

[CeeKay]

final flash sale update 

[CeeKay]

a look back at the daily deals:

Spoiler for Hiden:

in anticipation of the next big sale.
