homepage Forums SimHQ Community Community Hall Steam Summer Sale.

Bought my first game of the sale. Blood Dragon, paid a $1.12 for it thanks to selling all my steam cards.

I'm really liking Metro Last Light so far.

Ok. Finally got a "real" game. Borderlands 2. Hope I like it.

Pfft. Still not even halfway to the modest budget I set for the sale. $60, or the price of 1 top-shelf new release.

Borderlands 2 is a fun game especially if you play it cooperatively. On a couple of rare occasions I was able to have 4 human players in a game and that was great fun!

How was is compared to the first game? Playing with 1 or 2 people the original Borderlands felt really bland and empty, kinda like WoW with very rare NPCs just standing around waiting to give out quests.

Peally, that comparison has been made in almost every review of Borderlands that has been published. Suffice to say, BL2 is far better than BL1.

I like Blood Dragon, stick with it though as it seems daft to start with (to be fair its not supposed to be taken seriously) but opens up after first couple of missions.

Thanks, I might pick 2 up then, it's cheap enough

Picked up Assassin's Creed II, AC Revelations, AC Brotherhood, and AC III, $5 each.

Which AC is it people rave about, other than Black Flag? 3?


I've added Sleeping Dogs (sounds really good), Saints Row 4 (vs aliens), COH 2 and Planetary Annihilation.
Already got Fallout 3 & dlc, Dark Souls, Borderlands 2 & dlc, and Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.

So much for trying to hold out this sale.

AC2 is the best one but 3 and Black Flag are good too.

I got AC4 free with my GTX770, along with SC: Blacklist and Batman: AO. Literally the first time EVER that a game bundle I got with my video card had ONE game I wanted to play, let alone 3.

Never would've bought Batman, but since it was free I tried it and really liked it! Bought Arkham City GOTY on sale on Steam since and I'll probably get Arkham Knight now.




The Jedi Master

Yep, good game.

So far I've bought Football Manager 2014, Lego Marvel Super Heroes and Sniper Elite V2.

As Mace says I think you're thinking about AC2 as that's been generally viewed as the best all around AC game. I'd have to say its been my favorite too. Not just the setting and story but I found that AC2 had the best combat configuration and gameplay out of all of them. You have more control and more combat options and it flows well. AC3 combat is still pretty good but it felt like they tried to simplify it which is a mistake in my opinion. Though I love the setting of AC4, the combat mechanics really took a dump in my opinion. I don't know what they were thinking because it made it too arcade like and not enough puppeteering
control and options like in AC2. Wish they would have kept a "classic" type combat schemed for folks to use. I hope they go back in the right direction with Unity.

Had enough from selling those things on the marketplace to buy AC2. Then I pulled old stuff I had before, relisted and made another almost $5. I love this stuff. LOL
I guess you accumulate these things as you play the games and get achievements? I've sold all of the cards for purchases too.

Correct. I have over 100 cards that I can sell. I noticed that my most valuable cards are worth 39 cents and the least valuable are 3 cents.

Get them while the getting is good! Looks like they drop pretty quickly from that >.20 range.
Might even get me playing some of these sale games I never get around to. To buy more sale games to not get around to. LOL

I actually play everything I buy. Yeah I'm crazy like that.

I did grow up in Miami and thus have been drinking espressos since I was a kid so you may be onto something.
