I just bought Brutal Legend off the sale. I have $1.05 left in my Steam wallet. 

 

 

[apsham]

Yikes. At least in Canada, Civ6 only went down to the price I figured it was initially. Next year!

[Bobfoc]

It was rather expensive to begin with here too. It's kept its price better than its predecessors too.

[LUKIE]

Beat Cop looks like an awesome update to Police Quest.
Anyone played it?

EDIT:

Just read a review. Sounds shit.

Sure. I love a good sale but when Humble bundle have Killing Floor for free how can I not recommend...
https://www.humblebundle.com/store/killing-floor?hmb_campaign=killingfloor_freegame_2017&hmb_source=bundle_page&hmb_medium=banner_cross

By far one of my favourite games ever. Looking at my purchase history on Kinguin I purchased this game 15 times with DLC for friends just to play with me

I've got the game but I've not even played it. I don't even remember buying it.

[Rocky]

It's on sale for $5 quite often, as it currently is on steam. You may have picked it up then as an impulse buy.

I think it might have been part of a Humble Bundle or something

Damn, I'd forgotten how satisfying the latest Doom is.  Wonder if I should pick up Wolfenstein:  The New Order since it's on sale.  I'm assuming they have a similar feel?

[Rocky]

I've put 234 backgrounds onto the market for sale... Not too bad so far. Sold 10 and made near $6. I just want them gone in a couple weeks so I know I have Fire Pro covered.

[Paton]

Picked up the first Dishonored game for next to nothing. Never played any of them, obviously, so should be a good experience.

[Ruki]

I give up with PUBG.

 

 

That was the absolute BEST and most fluky game of my life. It all started with me landing...game lagged out a bit, but I was able to get into a house and get an M4 with not a lot of ammo. I go to check the next house, and then the luck starts happening.

-I am searching what appears to be an empty house. I go upstairs and see someone briefly, they hide in a room and flashbang me...but they don't have a gun so they run.

-I run into this person in another house, he gets the jump on me....but I manage to shotgun him away.

-I go near a house and see someone inside. I wait outside with my shotgun and....I miss. He hits me with his shotgun. I run, I try to heal....but he follows, shoots....misses? I fire once and get a lucky hit. He goes down.

-Got another kill with a shotgun, but I don't remember?

-I see an airdrop. I figure I might as well go check it out since I'm playing on borrowed time. I slowly make my way there...see two people fighting. One goes down...so I pull out my M4, take aim (adjusted the zeroing distance for the first time ever), fire once and drop them.

-I see another airdrop, still on borrowed time...it's right by the blue wall of death. I check it out...sniper with an 8x scope. I'm happy as a clam...although it's down to the final 15 or so. Get into the safezone, start crawling and waiting.

-Some jerk in a gray coat is hiding behind a tree....headshot.

-Some jerk goes to loot that kill? Headshot.

-Final 2. Tense as all hell. I expect to die since I suck at this game. The safe area is getting smaller and smaller. But for about 2 rounds I don't have to move...so I don't. But then it happens...I have to move. Thankfully, the blue wall was already against one side of the safe zone, so I know roughly what direction the other person is coming from.

 

-I see movement. Fucker has a ghili suit. He hasn't seen me. I can't see him through the grass, but I roughly know where he is...so I take a shot with my M4 (burst fire, since we're close). I miss. I stand up, hoping to spook him...I fire....and miss. He stands up, but before he can shoot, I land the killing blow.

I've had it for a while but haven't played it nearly enough. Its been at least 3 months since I've played it. My one gripe with it is that a lot of the bone charms you need to collect to gain or power up abilities are a right bitch to find and get to. The game reviews I've read said its possible to play the entire game without killing anyone, but I've done at least two missions where I wasn't able to avoid killing because I had no sleep bolts and couldn't stealth past them.

Certainly, it uses a lot of classic FPS style gameplay like health and armour, and some corridors where you can shoot the shit out of Nazi's, Nazi Dogs, Nazi Robots, and everything Nazi ever.

And it mixes things up with some more modern gameplay like a pretty good stealth system, and adds a somewhat coherent story to it all to make BJ more of a person rather than an emoting face at the bottom. 

Also, like the originals its chock full of secrets and easter eggs of all kinds, and that's always great too.

[apsham]

I just found out that Steam lets you just straight up remove games from your account. This is the most cathartic thing - good bye Humble Bundle games I never wanted in the first place!

[LUKIE]

I absolutely loved the new Wolfenstein games. They have been fantastic.

[Schlitzbrille]

Current Summer Sale purchase list:

[OctoberRaven]

[Lint]

FO3 is on sale for like $10 I think.  Problem is you need to jump through a whole lot of hoops to get it working on Windows 10 due to the DRM.  Its available at GOG for $20...but since its DRM free, it works right away

[apsham]

I made a list last night based on what the current machine I could use would handle and what I'd play - it isn't very long, mostly Civ6 and Dead Cells, etc - I'm still debating if I'm going to do anything about it.

[Rocky]

I've been holding off on purchases because I wanted to see what I got in this months Humble Monthly, only to realise it's released after the sale ends so I'm gonna have to chance it on some titles.

Can anyone here recommend The Talos Principle? I've had my eye on it for a while now.
