On the contrary, you really do need $50 in your steam account.

[lazlo falconi]

Kind of not wanting to get it because I really don't need $50 in Steam cash.

 

Are you kidding? that's enough for like 80 games!

Well do I really need more of a backlog?

 

I was pretty good this Steam sale I bought:

Prison Architect (played a ton of, basically "beaten")

Gone Home (beat)

The Witcher 2

Shadowrun Returns

 

I actually bought more at GOG (but probably spent less), which includes:

Evil Genius

Knights and Merchants: The Peasant Rebellion 

Bullfrog Bundle (Theme Hospital/Park, Dungeon Keeper, Populous, etc...)

[Stars]

I ended up getting more games than I meant to during this sale. I now have:

 

Papers, Please

Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death

Bit.Trip Flux

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

Dishonored

Cloudbuilt

Shovel Knight

T.E.C. 3001

Skyrim: Hearthfire

Ikaruga

The Final Hours of Portal 2

 

The only one I've played so far is Shovel Knight, and it wasn't even on sale (since it just came out on Thursday).

[legacyme3]

I barely got any games this sale (no money, and nothing I wanted went on sale for much).

 

I got One Way Heroics from one friend, and The Stanley Parable from another in a trade.

 

I haven't gotten around to playing either, but I can't wait.

[Phalanxman]

I bought:

 

Audiosurf 2

Bioshock Pack

Broforce

Brothers

The Bureau

XCOM: Enemy Unknown

Castle Crashers

Democracy 3

Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Directors Cut

Endless Space

Europa Universalis IV

Guns of Icarus Online

Papers Please

Payday 2

Plague Inc: Evolved

realMYST: Masterpiece Edition

Rise of Flight: Channel Battles Edition

Shadow Warrior

Sir You Are Being Hunted

Space Engineers

Star Wars Pack  (crap ton of Star Wars Games)

Star Forge

Tropico 4

Viscera Cleanup Detail: Shadow Warrior

 

I'd say I did well. :P

[Vicious Parker]

Humble 2k Bundle is neat, if you're in to that kind of thing.

I paid $1 because all I really wanted (that I didn't already have) was The Bureau. So that means.... http://monkeypro.net...hread/?p=117373

I might get it depending on the extra games that haven't been shown yet. All I really want right now are the games in the $20 tier. xp

[lazlo falconi]

That's a great deal for those games. I just wish I had $20.

[Stars]

I can't play Bioshock Infinite either way until I upgrade my PC (because WinXP). My laptop heats up and lags a bit when I play Bastion, so I'm not even going to try Infinite on that.

PSN Flash Sale

 

There's nothing too crazy on sale, as everything is 99 cents.

 

But there's some good stuff. Wild Arms, Harvest Moon, Legend of Dragoon, Machinarium, other stuff I don't know about...

 

Kind of sucks because I literally just bought Wild Arms 2 this week. :(

Buy 1 Get 1 on Select First Party 3DS Games at Best Buy

 

It starts on the 20th.

 

If you have GCU it should stack with that making this one hell of a deal.

 

Games:

Pokemon X

Pokemon Y

Kirby Triple Deluxe

Yoshi's New Island

Tomodachi Life

Zelda:  A Link Between Worlds

Bravely Default

Mario Golf World Tour

Mario Party Island Tour

Disney Magical World

 

Thinking of getting Tomodachi Life and Kirby. Maaaybe Yoshi and Mario Golf or Disney as well. If I didn't have them I'd totally got for a Pokemon, Bravely Default, and Zelda.

 

Luckily for me, I should be getting a lot of Best Buy credit coming soon because of their Persona Q mess up and some other thing I did.

 

Also Wii U controllers are kind of on sale. They come with a $10 GC. Wii Remote Plus controllers are regularly priced, but the Pro Controllers are $30. So with the GC that's about $20 for a Pro Controller, which is a pretty great price. 

[Stars]

...I just bought Zelda least week. The only other thing I want from that list is Pokemon. Curses.

 

Oh, also, I finally have a 3DS~

[Monkeydog]

You should get Bravely Default. It is hands down one of the best JRPGs in a long time.

 

Or Kirby! It has a Super Smash esque side game with it.

[Stars]

I might get one or the other since I had planned to get Pokemon eventually anyway (still haven't finished Black though...), and a second game would be free. Not much point in waiting for Pokemon to get cheaper since it never happens.

 

I did somewhat recently get the Kirby Collection for Wii, so I might give that a try to see if I have an affinity for Kirby games. Otherwise I suppose I'd go for Bravely Default.

Persona 4 is on sale on PSN. You should get it (yes you).

 

There's also other stuff on sale, including Devil Summoner games that involve Rasputin. 

[Monkeydog]

Free 250 Sony Rewards points for playing/sharing a dumb game.

 

You can use the points to slowly build yourself towards PSN money.

Heads up on this sale if anyone cares. Sale should go live on Best Buy's site at 1am EST.

 

I don't really expect games to last very long considering how good the sale is.

[Stars]

It didn't activate at 1 EST, so I went to sleep to make an online order this morning. Bravely Default is sold out in every store in Wichita already, so I couldn't do a store pickup, but I was still able to ship the games to my house (with free shipping). Got BD and Pokemon X.

[Monkeydog]

I bought Kirby and Tomodachi Life. Bee and I went Shopkicking all day and ended up with two $10 GCs. So between that and my 20% discount with GCU it was $10 overall. So very nice. I counted up how much having GCU has saved me since I got it and it was like 250+ (it cost me $60 @_@). Although a lot of that was when Best Buy glitched itself in having a buy one 50% get one 70% off sale (which I bought 4 games from).

 

I was thinking about getting Yoshi's New Island and then like Bravely Default for my sister but Yoshi's New Island is apparently not that great (and thus might get a deep discount by the end of the year) and I don't actually like my sister that much.
