[whyhellothere]

why'd you pay more for an 8150 when you could of gotten a 8320?
cheaper & about the same stock performance

[milestailsprowe]

Man... Everything. What I don't feel like buying off Steam or have on the 360 I download off PB.

 

[solidus snake]

Just Cause is 27 cents on Steam

.

 

[zk1mpls]

Still have the resisted the urge from buying off Steam. Well, it helps if your rig isn't around to be of use.

My new work laptop is on the way and should be over here within the week, though. Uh-oh... :\

Curious how the HD4400 works out on it...

 

[sneakerreaper]

The Steam sale is over. Here are my pickups:

AI War: Fleet Command
Bastion
Call of Juarez Gunslinger
Counter Strike Complete Pack
Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition
Kerbal Space Program
Sleeping Dogs
Sniper Elite: Nazi Zombie Army
Thief Collection
Tomb Raider 2013

Overall I say it was a good sale.

 

[swendro]

I bought:

 

[sole vintage]

forgot to pick up Hotline Miami

 

[whyhellothere]

Late as hell but the current humble bundle looks pretty good.
For $1 or more
Steam/Origin keys for


Crysis 2 Maximum Edition
Dead Space 1
Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box
Mirror's Edge
Medal of Honor

Origin keys for:
Dead Space 3

And if you donate more than the average (which is like $5) you get origin keys for battlefield 3 & the sims 3 + a couple expansion packs.

 

[omgitswes]

Okay, this looks sick.
