[Megathread] Steam Fall/Winter Sale 2013

[Afrospinach]

I am looking to buy the Bioshock triple pack.

But I remember Bioshock 1 and 2(?) having horrible DRM on top of steam. Is that still the case?

Maybe they did but for my version of bioshock 1 I had to agree to a EULA and done.

I'm hoping for FF8 on sale. Anyone seen it? (50% or 75% off) Realy looking forward to it

I have a bad feeling it won't get discounted at all. Out of 25 games on my wishlist, it's the only one with absolutely no discount.

Nope. Bioshock 2 doesn't have any GFWL/SecuROM DRM anymore, so you're good to go!

still nothing of interest

So how low do you think the Globe Cards will go on the market before they hit the floor?

Sold mine earlier today for about €0.38 Might not seem much, but seeing I got it from voting 3 times it's just free money.

Anyone for a preference for my vote? (Hard Reset -85%, Painkiller -80%, Citadels -66%). I don't really care for any of the games and can perhaps make someone else happy

Citadels is terrible, the two others have been on cheap bundles before. Nothing interesting at all there.

I've sold all of mine so far because of the price drop I noticed. The summer sale cards also became cheaper towards the end. I just don't know how low it will go and whether it's worth the wait + inflation on the free to play items.

Vote Hard Reset! Others need to play the game, it's absolutely fantastic.

[Lucetia]

Hoping for a good sale on Baldur's gate I or/and II. My cousin and I really want to replay them together like in the "good old days".
Probably not going to buy anything else since I had time to play only 1 game out of 4 I bought on the summer sale (need moar free time!!!).

I think it's Amazon is going to have I for $9.99 and II for $19.99 on sale. Not sure of original prices offhand. I can double check and see if you want.

True, but the difference between Summer's and Winter's is that you can still buy Summer's. Winter's is only good until the day after the sale ends. After that they vanish from everyone's inventories.

Wait what? Ok...starting to not like this whole idea if this is true. It's one thing to make a compelling minigame in buying things, quite another to start strong arming it and removing the fun.

Doesn't that mean that people will want to get rid of them toward the end of the sale? More volume = lower prices.

Hard Reset won.

Wow, terrible deals for today, I hope the discounts will be updated.

Yep, they got updated...still not enough for anything interesting.

They updated it now.

Also: Please vote for Risk of Rain. It seems like a cool game.

[icedwarrior]

That's why I updated my post.

Might bite on FF7, but was hoping for a 75% discount...

[Lucetia]

The Steam Edition of Train Simulator 2014 is 10€ cheaper than standard edition and contains more content, might wanna jump on that.

Anyone played Majesty 2? Played a lot of original a lot long time ago, how does it measure up?

I played the shit out of Majesty 1, and tried Majesty 2...and hated it. I liked some of the things they did, but I consistently got swarmed and got game overs. I don't think there's any question the first game is better.

Also, vote for Risk of Rain, please.
