I bought Borderlands GOTY the other day and I just bought Arkham Asylum. Anyone know of any good bullet hells in the sale, I've been having a major itch for them.

I've bought:

Every GTA title
The Witcher part 1 and 2
Knights of the Old Republic
Decapattack
Shining Force 2
Theif 3

I can't remember what else but I'll grab a few things before the end of the night, like Bastion, since I heard good things, and maybe Bioshock since everybody seems to love those.

The funny part is, though, I'll likely never play most of these games ..they were just so cheap.

Is The Witcher (1 or 2) more of an hack n slash action game or is it more puzzly? I don't really care for games that make you think, that is what work is for

I haven't played it yet, I just know that it looks fantastic, and it has been considered the most mature and impressive RPG series in a long time by many people. Works for me - I haven't been in love with an RPG for years.

So my Steam Summer haul is -

Borderlands GOTY
Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY
Jamestown and all of it's DLC

Also I was gifted Secret of the Magic Crystal because it's become a recurring joke around the Reddit Brony community to gift the terrible game containing horses, unicorns, and pegasi to other bronies.

When am I actually going to play these games? I don't rightly know.

The most puzzly thing about The Witcher series is how to get women naked, and it's far easier than real life, so there ya go.

Updated purchases:

Bioshock 1 and 2
Bastion

I think I ended up buying about 10-15 games. I wouldn't mind, but I've not played one of them, I'm still playing d3 if anything, half of them I haven't even downloaded yet.

The steam sales are terrible, I ended up getting like 8 games for under 30 bucks. I think the xmas sales are sweeter cuz you can actually play some of the purchases and unlock new games. Or they'll do the in game gift items and you can unlock even more games.

Bastion, as I just finished it, I would rate as excellent. I have a soft spot for that art direction though as it reminds me of the good ole days of gaming, before the constant strive for 'realism' practically destroyed games having art direction, by and large.

Already have man, that's why I was frothing when I could grab the second one for $20

Nearly $1400 here for my library Just note that that's the retail value of the games, not what you paid for them.

The next sale will be the Christmas one, starting about a week before the 25th and ending probably around the 28th-30th this year. They have 2 sales like this each year, the summer one in late July and the Christmas/Winter one in late December.

Just check the games website, sometimes under the game info on the right it'll let you know. If all else fails, use a mapping programmer like xpadder and find some profiles for that particular game you're trying to play.

I already own Borderlands and all the DLC for my PS3, but $7.50 for the Game of the Year Edition was too awesome to pass up. I now have a copy of Borderlands for my PC as well.

Total count so far:

- Amnesia: The Dark Descent
- Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition
- Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition

I'm sure there are more to come.
