Topic: The Unofficial Steam Sales Thread

Free weekend on Dawn of War 2: Retribution.

I'm waiting for Torchlight II (Mac version, sadly).

Nothing to do with sales, but the game is going to be priced at a budget price ($20-$30 around there).

You folks better get it too!

Multiplayer in Torchlight 2! It actually looks like it might be better than Diablo 3...

Yeah, mostly because Torchlight 2 doesn't have an insanely restrictive DRM system in place. I haven't even played the Diablo 3 Beta and I know that Blizzard is just ruining a perfectly fine game for everybody.

I never played a Diablo game, and I have the first TL game (still have to "beat" it) and got it over the summer when it was like $3 on sale- never knew about it until it showed up on sale so I thank Steam for that. To me, I think that TL is more "friendly" and easy to learn than Diablo from what I've seen.

I've been playing TL and always thought "This game needs multiplayer." Not against the single player experience as I do love playing alone sometimes, but it'd be more fun with friends playing together and helping each other out. And I'm real excited for the more customization options for TL2 and how it's going to be more open-ended than TL, where you're in this one town only and heading to dungeons.

Oh, and they're working on a Torchlight MMO

Weekend deal is 66% off "Tomb Raider: Anniversary", "Tomb Raider: Legend", and "Tomb Raider: Underworld".
$3.09, $5.09, and $6.79 respectively.

Hot deal. Can't get it though

I played the demo of Tomb Raider Legend and... well... I caved in and bought it.

But I'll beat Anniversary before I play it.

I need more money D:

You can get Arkham Asylum and LEGO Batman for $20 for midweek madness. I highly recommend them both.

I want them, but I think I can wait for an even better deal.

ima get teraria soon then you guys could add me at salty1264

Hey, is anyone having problems downloading some games, specifically E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy? I've been trying to download the game for the past several days but the download is always getting suspended whenever there's less than one megabyte left to download. I've sent in a ticket for Steam support, but Steam support takes forever and I probably won't get anything too useful out of them.

Have you tried changing download regions?

On The Topic Of Downloading E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy:

Fun Fact #1: To AVG Free 2012, EYE.exe is considered a false positive (translation: "AVG considers the game a virus.").

Fun Fact #2: AVG Free 2012 moves whatever it thinks is a virus to its virus vault. However, the file doesn't show up in said vault unless you restart your computer.

Fun Fact #3: Trying to download a Steam game from a specific computer and then transferring those files to another computer is a huge waste of time.

On The Topic Of Saving/Spending Whatever Money You Have Left:

Today's deal is Astro Tripper, which I am constantly tempted to call "Astro Stripper". It looks interesting enough, but I have too many games in general to finish, so I'll just wait for the Christmas Sale.

Couldn't you have just disabled your AV to install the game? Or download it, depending on when it catches the files.

@Ravage The problem is that AVG quarantines a virus if its in the virus vault, so you can't download it again unless you restore the file. And don't worry about it, I'm able to play the game now thanks to restoring the file and telling AVG is was a safe file to run.

The Halloween sale is up! And there's TONS of games on sale

I'm not seeing many games on sale... The Dead Space Pack is on sale and that is about it.
Nevermind. I have found the sales

I'm not sure how Terraria and Rock Of Ages are considered "Eerie" games, but saving money is saving money! Also, the Penumbra Pack is pretty enticing...

EDIT: Also, some might want to look closely at the "Dead Horde" banner.

I also see that LIMBO is only 25% off I was hoping for a bigger percent off.
