... is anybody else hooked to these sales like I am, and watching their computer at 1:00pm Eastern every day to see what the new deals are?
It's sick.

It's sick.
I might get osmosis, but the others are eh.
Money is safe today, thats for sure.
I am passing on gta 4 because the first thread in the steam forum is a mile long on how to get it to run...doesn't look good. Crap deals today maybe tomorrow borderlands will be the deal
I passed on King Arthur hoping that Empire goes on ad, gonna be mad as hell if it never does.
Bah...TF2 has already been offered for cheaper in the past. **** deals IMNO
Oh yeah... Forgot about the total war games. I need to add those to the list. I would expect Empire to maybe be he 4th of July day sale...it kinda ties in with the holidayQuote:

Oh well, plenty of games to tide me over until I see what tomorrow's steam sale brings :p
I got the Commandos pack. Figured for $3.75 I might get around to them.............eventually.
I'm tempted, but I highly doubt it will even run lol.Quote:

Here's to another day I'll be waiting at the computer at 12pm, as if these games will sell out.

Just looks like a thread of compiled issues, that isn't a list of steps you need to go through to get it running. I have the GTA 4 Episodes on my PC and that works without problem.Quote:

I run it on decent setting with my setup, but the game really cries out for a quad core from what I have read.
Oh man...thank god I lucked out and bought the $100 AMD processor.Quote:

I'm thinking Torchlight (this is the cheapest I've ever seen it), Red Faction, and Flatout. I'll go to work first and ponder again when I get home. LoL
Oh nice..... Red faction for five bucks
Is it coop?
I loved the first Guild game. Guild 2 got some mediocre reviews (low 60s), but it has been patched quite a bit. Maybe for $6 I should just give it a go.
I purchased a 3.1ghz dual core.Quote:
