I'm sitting in an excel training class. Level 1. I'm a super user. I am being made to take this. I could be teaching it.

I'm sure they feel at your advanced age they are worried you might have forgotten the basics.

Just like you didn't notice this was the game sale thread.

Vermintide is 20% off on GreenManGaming if you use voucher code 20PERC-HARVST-SAVING

Alright, Overkill's sort of backed down on the micro-transactions in Payday 2: you can still buy the drills if you want them quickly, but you can also receive them for free from Wolf cards at the end of a heist. This doesn't FIX everything, but knowing you can get them for free now is enough to put down the pitchfork.

I loved Strider and Bionic Commando back in the NES days...

Bionic Commando: Rearmed is actually a really good adaptation of the NES Bionic Commando into 3D rendered 2D gameplay. It makes some little tweaks here and there, but for the most part, it's faithful to the source material.

I don't know about the Strider remake though.

Ravenpoe · Oct 21, 2015

It makes me very happy that I can move that slider and say that $0 goes to Capcom

Null · Oct 21, 2015

It's a fantastic deal but I'm not actually sure I have the hardware to run half of it.

GasBandit · Oct 21, 2015

I am also uncertain as to whether capcom has yet to fix the GFWL dependency of Street Fighter IV. I got tired of waiting for them to do so and stopped paying attention.

Null · Oct 21, 2015

GFWL?

According to patch notes, they took out GFWL back in June.[DOUBLEPOST=1445465173,1445465123][/DOUBLEPOST]

Games For Windows Live. DRM / online service from Microsoft. It no longer exists, and some games got it patched out and replaced with Steamworks.

AshburnerX · Oct 21, 2015

For the record, paying the $9+ just for RE: Rev is worth the price.

You can see why I was irritated with them, seeing as how GFWL went offline in July of the previous year.

Just bought Fallout 4 for 23% off at Green Man Gaming. Not sure if you can get it since it is from an emailed voucher, but you can poke around & find out.

That's a good price, but is it worth playing?

Dunno. Never been interested in the series, myself.

Null · Oct 24, 2015

I think @Dei recently purchased it on Steam. Maybe she'll have an opinion to share.

GasBandit · Oct 24, 2015

She, terrik and I were trying to co-op it. It's pretty meh.

I did the same. It worked out to being about 20 bucks off Canadian. Fine with me, it was a day one anyway.[DOUBLEPOST=1445729795,1445729759][/DOUBLEPOST]

I liked it until you left the beachfront, at which point it sucks.

AshburnerX · Oct 24, 2015

Riptide is better than Dead Island, but that isn't saying much.

Null · Oct 24, 2015

So in other words, don't bother. Cool.

Dei · Oct 24, 2015

The playstyle is VERY MMO. To me it was a turnoff because I spent a decade and a half or more in THAT hole.

Frank · Oct 24, 2015

Oh you didn't like getting a purple electricuting lawnmower blade +4 of zombie slaying?

GasBandit · Oct 24, 2015

I didn't like having to repair it every 10 minutes, then sell it for pocket change 2 levels later.

$4, all you people who said maybe you'd want to play. [emoji12]

Even cheaper, because you can use a promo code to take another 22% off.

Dei · Oct 29, 2015

Oh hey, the Steam Halloween sale is finally up. It looks pretty half-ass though.

50% off for Dying Light isn't too shabby. IT's Dead Island done right, which makes sense because it's from the same developers. There's plenty of other stuff too.

GasBandit · Oct 29, 2015

Left 4 Dead 2 is now $4 for anybody who was holding off getting it on our advise until the sale. Like, @LittleKagsin

Also, Killing Floor is, as we knew it would be, $5 during the sale (or $17.50 if you want all the DLC, which is mostly cosmetic/characters). So, @Terrik and anyone else interested in getting in on some of that, there you go.

If you look higher on the thread, Pez and I pointed out that L4D is even less on Green Man Gaming still.

ThatNickGuy · Oct 29, 2015

Hmm. The Secret World MMO is 50% off. I've had that on my wishlist for awhile and considered it in the past. Hmmmm.

Dei · Oct 29, 2015

Just keep in mind that it IS an MMO. If you like playing those solo though, I think it's ok.
