There are some quite interesting deals on steam these days. Come up with your buying suggestions/point out a good game deal if you like.

For example, today RailWorks2: Train Simulator is 75% cheaper: 7,5 euro instead of 30. Is it worth it? I always wanted to try such a simulator, but I fear I would only waste my money.

[EDIT] For goodness' sake Penguinboy, why is the backslash removed everytime?

My guess is that magic quotes (a PHP feature/bug which adds backslashes before \, ", ' and NULL) was activated on the previous server and that Penguinboy wrote code to remove the unnecessary backslashes and when TWHL moved to the new server, on which magic quotes is deactivated, he did not remove that code.

I like steam sales, I got the Whole CoD collection cept BO and MW2 for like $30 and its work $119. And other games for free/less. Nothing good that I don't already own is on sale yet, I'm watching it closely, and getting tickets.

Valve complete pack, including portal 2 is £25. They're nuts. That's less than $50 US.
Shame I already own every single one of them :P

If everyone on steam interested in the games already have them, they have to attract even more attention somehow.

I paid $10.forty-something for a Battlefield 3 beta key. I'm estatic! I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS GAME. It came attached to Medal of Honor. Meh. Giving the multiplayer a go because it was made by DICE so it can't suck completely.

Don't see anything I need today, better luck tomorrow hopefully.

Holy fucking shit.

You don't even need real money to buy games, just do the events, get tickets, and redeem them. I just got a 10$ game by doing 3 piss-easy things.

Well, actually now that I think about it I'm not entirely sure what games will be available for redeeming with tickets, but with any luck some good ones will come up soon.

Ugh I wanna win the 10 wishist thing, But its like the lottery and my chances are slim.
EDIT: Hey is alien breed 2 worth the tickets lol?

It's a well made game, but I can't just give a straight answer to that with absolutely no idea of what kind of games you play, self interests, what you're asking is effectively "Is it worth it to buy an apple or should i buy an orange instead?"

I don't care about anything but DOTA2, which I assume is valves priority right now.

Bad news for you, Mcrich. L4D2 is incorporating all the original campaigns over time. There is literally no reason to buy the first game anymore.

Yeah, I was trying to decide if he meant he already had L4D1, or if he bought it in the sale. If it was in the sale, you've been a silly person.

I was going to get, GTA 4 and its 2 expansions for the $10USD But I guess I'm not now.

EDIT:
HAHA, I tricked steam, GTA4 was in its LAST 30 SECONDS of being $10, and I didn't have the money yet, so I put it in checkout and Did all that sign out shit, and before I had it sitting on the Purchase screen, Luckily it didn't time out, I got it. Epic.

Didn't Valve originally say that they would keep on working on the original l4d making new content and shit as well as for l4d 2?

By doing all the original campains for the "new" l4d 2, then the original really was just a beta. There has been pretty much no new content to the original at all. It annoys me a bit.. but just a bit. I'm not saying that I regret buying it.

Valve says alot of things, I like the Game play of L4D2 better, but I like the Atmosphere of L4D1. Hopefully they release more intercity type DLc for L4D2. Heh, I remember when they First announced L4D2 and those assholes Started that Boycott, I was in the L4D2 Boycott- Boycott. Yeah.
