Boooooooooooooooooooooooo, no L4D2 for 25 = meh. When I nabbed L4D, I got it when they had it for half-off at the time... and the game was still fairly new. Would be nice if they can do it again for #2. |

http://store.steampowered.com/early-holiday Oh man, I feel for you. It's a smashing game though, and that is a great value at only 8 bucks. |

Would be nice if they can do it again for #2. Expecting 50% off a week or so after release is a little... impatient. Still, you never know, Steam is putting up new deals through Monday. I could see it being 30% off or something like that. I got Osmos because it's $2, why not. Ends up the game sucks, so be aware of that. Everything else I already own pretty much... would like Dawn of Discovery but I hate D2D. |

Everything else I already own pretty much... would like Dawn of Discovery but I hate D2D. Thanks for warning me against Osmos, almost picked it up because of it's low price. Only bought on Steam this time around, picked up the following: GRiD, Defcon, and Raycatcher which seemed interesting enough, especially with the fact that you can play to your own music (like Audiosurf). I'll let you guys know how Raycatcher is, and if it's worth the $5. Raycatcher is inventive and entertaining. The rays get crazier as you go on, not just straight shots. I suggest you make some sort of mount with a disc underneath your mouse so you can spin the in-game disc in time with your physical spinning, it'll make things easier, trust me. Overall it was worth the $5, I'm waiting on a little more money so I can buy "AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! - A reckless disregard for gravity" which is an interesting take on base jumping in the future. |

Your mileage with Osmos may vary, but for a game that is supposed to be relaxing and filled with ambient music it is very nerve-racking and annoying to play. Whoever decided moving should slowly kill you is an idiot. |

I don't know about that, but that mechanic certainly makes the game challenging. But yeah, the in game music will drive you off the wall after a while, so put on something else. |

I bought Dragon Age : Origins retail for $99 cause I didn't want to waste my monthly download quota. Then happened to come across the Steam deal this morning. So I bought THQ Pack, Osmos and Dragon Age : Origins for $87USD ($97AUD). I just got TWENTY games for the price of Dragon Age : Origins retail, although I already have DoW2... (Also have DoW + expansions but not through Steam so happy with that) Shame about Osmos but I'm willing to give it a go. A friend enjoyed it and we like the same kinda stuff. Can't wait to see what the next 4 days will have in terms of specials on Steam. /sigh Picked up GRID too. Bring on day two... |
