Steam sale thread: Summer 2017 Edition

[Rage Racer]

I was searching the forum for a thread about this but I only found your post. Got the game too but only since yesterday.

Is it worth making a thread you think?

Go ahead, I'll be one of the visitors.

It Steam Winter sale time. What did you guys get so far?

 

[sesselpupser]

So far I've bought FSX and MGS V: Ground Zeroes. I probably won't buy much more on account of being the most broke I've ever been...

 

[Joey D]

Nothing, the sale has been awful thus far with what they're offering and for how much.

 

[Brett]

I have bought a few things:

1. Metal Gear Rising
2. Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes
3. Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut
4. Orcs Must Die! Franchise Pack
5. R.U.S.E. and DLC
6. Risk of Rain
7. Rise of Nations: Extended Edition

I am really hoping for a bigger discount on Southpark Stick of Truth.

 

[Mrjones]

FSX, ARMA 3, Dayz.

 

[Davidies]

A few games, but I can only remember Assetto Corsa. And that's a fun/good game.

 

[Flaren89]

Attracted by Alien: Isolation, mainly because I recently bought Asus Orion PRO headset and a game like that would be perfect for 7.1 even if only virtual. But considering I have already Outlast and I'm mostly waiting for GTA V next month... Mmh, have to decide.

 

[Ibonibo]

^Also attracted by Alien.

Shadowwarrior is a steal but is it worth it? Very mixed reviews

I got:

Aliens VS Predator
Commandos Series
Insurgency (Awesome hardcore shooter, Red Ochestra style)
Metal Gear Rising
MGS GZ
Orcs must die2
Portal 2
Ruse
Shadowrun
Urban Trial Freestyle
Wargame Airland
Wargame EU escalation

Waiting for Assetto Corsa And the forest to get more discounts

 

[Brett]

I just picked up The Wolf Among Us.

 

[sesselpupser]

@Ibonibo I think Shadow Warrior is pretty good, I'd pick it up if I didn't already have it. It's obviously extremely violent but if you like first person shooters I'd say it's worth it.

As for Alien: Isolation, I really need to start that. I was waiting to watch Alien again before I started, then two weeks ago I went to see it in an actual cinema and I told myself I'd get home and start playing before I forgot about the whole aesthetic of the film... But I didn't and now it's gone out of my mind, which is a shame. A great game by all other accounts I've heard, though.

 

[Flaren89]

@neema_t Do you think it's worth to pay 40€ for game + season pass now or as I already got Outlast (and its DLC) for you it's better to wait another future sale when it will have lower price? Consider in the equation also that I already planned to pay 40-50€ for GTA V for when it will come.

 

[Ibonibo]

^I've yet to play Outlast too, which was very cheap, so I wait in buying Aliens....(DLC and all considered).... I have more than enough games till the next sale, and this sale isn't even over.

EDIT: Yes, the wait for Assetto Corsa was worth it. 22€ 50% 👍

If you like classic FPS's, get it. 👍

 

[AlvaroF]

What your suggestions for cheap, great games? No hardware restriction.

 

[Davidies]

Depends on what defines "cheap" and "great".

If you have a couple of friends, you can get the Speedrunners 4pack on Steam for cheap during this holiday sale.

 

[AlvaroF]

<10€. What reviwers consider good games that have multiplayer especially.

 

[sesselpupser]

@Flaren89 I haven't played it yet so I can't really say, I've heard it's very good but starts to drag on a bit toward the end and the DLC that's been released so far is quite short.

@AlvaroF I can post a more complete list when I'm home, but for now there's Super Hexagon. It has been as cheap as 50p before now, I think.

 

[RacerPaul]

Here's the racing section, some great bargains to be had

[Frizbe]

Just picked up WRC 4 and the Railroad Tycoon bundle. Pretty stoked that the Tycoon bundle was less than $4 since I've been wanting it for over a year now

 

[JR98]

I got £15 on Steam and bought

Arma 2
Burnout Paradise: Ultimate Box
GTR 2
Simbin Bundle (Which had GTR 2 in it, oops)
Street Racing Syndicate

 

[Brett]

I bought South Park The Stick of Truth earlier today. I was hoping they would do a bigger discount after the last sale, but they did not.

That's one I think I will pick up tonight one my paycheck hits it's one I've wanted on my PS3 for awhile now anyway

 

[bluemoon_19]

Only got 1 thing so far this year not really seen much I wanted. I got Test Drive Ferrari Racing Legends for the crazy price of £3.74(75% off). Wasn't sure if it was worth it before but at that price I don't really care if I don't like it. Only gripe I have is the amount of login screens and sign ups I need to do just to be able to save the game.

 

[Luminis]

Thief and Anno 2070 are both tempting. 7.49 each, but knowing myself, I'd play them for an hour or two and go back to other games. Ugh, Steam Sales...

 

[ProjectWHaT]

I only got Assetto Corsa. None of the other games interest me or I already have it (CSGO and ETS2).

 

[Flaren89]

Actually I'm still playing the original Binding of Isaac (today completed The Chest with Judas, now remain only Eve, ??? And Samson and then 100% complete) but tempting by the Rebirth version, although looking at some gameplay it didn't catch me so much. Mostly maybe because ppl say it is easier than the original if you don't enable the hard mode. Dunno.

 

[Flaren89]

For last 48 hours they just put on super-sale again the most sold titles like Alien: Isoltation, Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, Dark Souls II, Metal Gear Solid V and so on.

Actually bought BoI:R instantly, thinking on A:I...

 

[bluemoon_19]

I got magic 2014 gold edition pack for like £9 today thats been fun playing with a friend

 

[cmbeal317]

Went pretty easy on the bank account this time:

Verdun
IL2 Cliffs of Dover
Microsoft Flight Sim X
