I would not say it was anything like those two.
A lot of people say it’s like Mirror’s Edge. The selling mechanic is going in and modifying people’s memories, but that only happens like four times. The actual game is mostly following missions and beating up people with fancy moves, while in an urban, cyberpunk future.
Left 4 Dead 2 is free on Steam. On the other hand, Steam ain’t working for me right now.
Dammit, I was going to mention Left 4 Dead 2 being free, but somehow my eyes didn’t pick up on Jophiel’s post. Oh well.
Yup, that’s one way to crash your servers.
What’s the difference between Borderlands 2 and B2 GOTY? I was able to buy B2 for ~ $10 on Steam.
The GOTY edition has a ton of DLC included, like the 2 additional classes and various expansions like Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep, and the like. It does not include all of the extra costumes, and a few other omissions that I’m forgetting.
Picked up the XCOM pack from Amazon, and a free L4D2 from Steam.
Christmas rules.
Thanks Ferret!
Here we go, from the Wiki entry: “A “Game of the Year Edition” containing the main game, all four major DLC packs, the two character packs, and the first Ultimate Vault Hunter Pack was released on October 8, 2013.” So those DLC packs were Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty, Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage, Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt, Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep, plus the mechromancer and psycho classes, and the first Ultimate Vault Hunter Pack.
It’s back up tonight and the game is still free. Cool.
Just grabbed it!
Thanks for the heads up!
So as I understand it, you need to do the steps to “buy” L4D2, and when it gets to the install you can stop? Don’t need to install fully to keep it “forever”? Because I know some of the games listed under free drop off your list if you don’t install them, e.g. Alien Swarm.
You need to “buy” it, yeah. It’s not a free game like Alien Swarm or Spiral Knights. It’s a premium game which Steam is currently letting you purchase for zero dollars.
Correct. Once it’s in your library, it’ll be yours forever and ever, installed or not.
Yeah, it didn’t even go through the full purchase process, though. I just clicked “install now” and it added to my library. I stopped the install without starting it and it is now there…permanently.
Well dang - I was hoping FTL would go on sale, but I missed it.
i think it is still on sale, about 3 hours left. just scroll down to “Yesterday’s Big Deals”.
Anyone played Anno 2070 before? I just got it, looks up my alley.
I was wondering the same. The reviews look pretty good.
I bought State of Decay while it was on sale, and so far I do not recommend it. It is a fun game, except for one small problem: the creators are absolute tossers. There are no difficulty settings, there is permadeath and there is no ability to return to an earlier save state. The character you like gets killed, and you have to start the whole game from the beginning - and no, you can’t skip dialog the second time through. Oh, and apparently resources are consumed in real time, as if this mechanic wasn’t a cancer on enough freemium “social” games without being shoved into a single player sandbox game that I might not want to play every single fucking day.
