I would go in on a Section 8 pack, if anyone needs to fill a group.

Locker K:

Not sure if you own the base game or not, but the four-pack comes with the DLC. Somehow every person in my pack missed that until after I gifted the copies and one of them went to buy it.

yeah I have the base game, and I think thats good enough I guess, I don’t even think I made it half way through the 5 hour campaign… :(

Then discovers he’d already owned everything in that list but Portal 2 and Day of Defeat.

I was waiting for that panel, too.

Anyone still interested in getting in on a Section 8 4-pack? I can host.

(If interested post or PM me and add me on Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/id/xenocrash/)

Kadath · 2011-08-16T17:41:17.000Z

I’m picking up a Section 8 4 pack, PM to get in, 2 slots open.

Diddums · 2011-08-16T17:52:54.000Z

Shoot, I paid $7.50 on Impulse for Prejudice just last week. I don’t think that included the DLC, either. The lesson, as always, is to always wait for the Steam sale. I’m looking at you Storm: Frontline Nation!

XenoCrash · 2011-08-16T18:36:40.000Z

I have two spots left in a 4-pack as well.

(Didn’t notice that Kadath had also picked one up…)

Kadath · 2011-08-16T19:02:40.000Z

It’s OK! I’m sure I can find a home for mine.

Ah, the second code worked for me. Thanks!

And me, thanks! – SUNNY-SAVER-20PEC

Still looking for decent ways to save on:
Rage
Skyrim (if we have 100% confirmed it’s Steamworks!)
Saints Row 3

Help me Bargain Thread, you’re my only hope!

Saw that Buy.com has 4000 point Microsoft spacebuck cards for $44.99, free shipping.

Has anyone seen a bigger discount in the last year or so?

I’ll take one of those spots.

Lux Delux is $5 in the gamersgate sale. You could play a different RISK-style map every day for years. http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-LUXD/lux-delux

Thanks for that. Bought it and love it. The maps are great. Perfect netbook game btw.

CipherPrime, makers of Auditorium and Pulse, are bringing their puzzle game Fractal to iPad tomorrow. To celebrate, they are selling the desktop version of Fractal for a dollar today. Anyone that buys the game will get a free upgrade to the new Unity version of the desktop Fractal game when that is released.

I just bought Fractal a couple of weeks ago for the regular price of 9.99 and have been very happy with it. For a dollar, this is a real no-brainer if you are a puzzle fan. It is a bit hard to describe how gameplay works, but basically, you are presented with a board divided into hexes, each level begins with a number of pieces on the board. You select a hex and push any adjoining pieces away from you in one of the 6 directions radiating out from the hex. A new piece of the color you just pushed with is created where the adjoining pieces had been. The object is to make various hexagonal shapes.

You can check out the game at http://PlayFractal.com/
Here is a trailer for the new iPad version.

Gratuitous space battles looks like a nice game, is the extra stuff fromt he complete pack worth doubling the price, anyone?
