Zimbra Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I've so far come out of the GOG and Steam sales only $5 poorer, but I have a feeling that might change today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGFanJay Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I want to get Lego Marvel, but I don't have a controller. Can I use the keyboard for it? If not, what's the cheapest good solution? Get a used ps3 or wired xbox 360 controller Xbox One pads now work as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGFanJay Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Check thrift stores, pawn shops, or if you've got them, 2nd and Charles (owned by Barnes and Noble), locations. I've gotten a few sub-$20 360 pads that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew POE! Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I ended up buying a lot on Steam & GOG during the sales -- off the top of my head, I got on GOG, Phantasmagoria 1 & 2, Empire Earth, Master of Magic, Master of Orion 1 & 2, SimCity 2000, BioForge, and Anvil of Dawn along with various free games (like Omerta, Torchlight & MagRunner). On Steam, it was a lot of course. The highlights for me were Age of Mythology, Company of Heroes 2, Goat Simulator, Nidhogg, Baldur's Gate II Enhanced Edition, One Way Heroics, Payday 2, and Age of Wonders 1 & 2.

Gonzo Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Steam has Sim City 4: Deluxe Edition on sale for $4.99. https://deals.joystiq.com/sales/sim-city-4-deluxe-edition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Tropico 4: Collector's Bundle is currently set at 99% off. This is most likely a pricing error on Steam's end, but those still count for us. If you've got a few cents stuck in your Steam wallet, move quickly. EDIT: Seems to have been fixed now. Back to a regular sale price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Heads up that you can get a free Steam key for Warlock: Master of the Arcane from the Humble Bundle Store today. You have to fill in a captcha that for whatever reason is only working in Google Chrome, so be aware of that (EDIT: They're saying the captcha has been fixed for other browsers now). I had my eye on this anyway because the short description of it is "Simpler version of Civilization V, but with wizards", so that's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhammedboehm Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Anyone know anything about March of the Eagles? It's done by the CK2 studio it's currently $.99 on the humble store Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhammedboehm Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Paradox Weekend on Steam tons of there stuff on sale including Crusader Kings 2 for 9.99 or the Collection with a ton of DLC for 40.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Screw that, they have a bundle where you can get Crusader Kings II, Europa Universalis IV and two other games for $9 total. That's borderline absurd pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 The other two games in the bundle (Hearts of Iron III and Victoria II) are quite a bit more spreadsheet-y than CK2 and EU4, but are still interesting experiences. Plus with these 4 games and the magic of save converters (and some tweaking) you can play the same game from 1066 to almost the present day. So that's cool. Crusader Kings 2 is also free to play all weekend for anyone that might still be on the fence about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 On one hand I can't wait to get my laptop back (assuming it hasn't been shot into the sun or something by now). On the other hand I am sad that my CK II game has been so badly disrupted by a three week delay that given the nature of the game I really feel like I should just start over again.

Cliff Hanger Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 This weekend's Gog sale has Tesla Effect (the brand-new Tex Murphy mystery) for $8, Shadow Warrior 2013 for $10 (it's an amazing game, but it's been on sale so many times at that price it no longer feels exciting), Gone Home for $10 and a bunch of other stuff I'm not familiar with.

Cliff Hanger Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Gog are advertising that a new publisher will be announced as joining their catalog Tuesday at 10a EDT. Activision would be the biggest 'get' that they don't have (beyond the Sierra games anyway), but somehow that seems unlikely. I can't really think of any boutique companies they don't already have that they'd have been pushing a week in advance as an announcement event.

Matt D Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 i am going to ban my kid from playing minecraft until he plays a shit ton of X-Wing and Tie-Fighter. That's good parenting right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 GOOD parenting would be to skip X-Wing and go straight to TIE Fighter, or have him play Wing Commander 3 instead. (Never liked the original X-Wing. Too arcadey for me, and WC's branching objectives and stories left me frustrated with XW's linearity. I realize that in modern Internet Land that makes me a total heretic. Don't care.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
