Only 5 games on my Steam wishlist and I doubt that any of those will go as low as 75% off. I don't think I'll be buying anything, unless I see some non-wishlisted games that I'm somewhat interested in get highly discounted.

Velvet Assassin or Cthulhu Saves the World.
I got Origins complete with all DLC, even the crappy ones, for $5, and this was more than a year ago, on Amazon. Totally worth it. Grab it when it hits that price, though, I suggest, for I haven't ever seen it lower.

I'm still waiting for a good deal on The Stanley Parable. I liked the free version, but I'm afraid of wasting money on a remake that might be just as short and now less interesting, depending on how much of it has remained the same ...

I also hope for a nice discount on Burial at Sea Episode 2.

Then there's The Wolf Among Us, Battleblock Theater, Call of Juarez: Gunslinger and Enslaved: Journey to the West. Maybe Fallout 3, depending on whether it still has any third-party DRM like GFWL and whether it's possible to get it running on Win 8 (it sounds like it's rather incompatible to 7 and 8).

refuse to use amazon - i paid more UK tax last month than they have in about ten years.
dont have any GFWL on mine and runs fine on win7 - though i had to lower the resolution one notch on my laptop to avoid a weird lagginess. played it to the end without other issues though.

That gets my hopes up a little. Might pick it up and try it for myself then if the price is low enough. Thanks!

I'm talking about the price, you ninny. Grab it at that price, but from Steam, since that's where you've put your wallet bits.

no worries. think i also had to add it to the DEP exception list. but nothing too fiddly for a 75% off deal - and the 60+ hours i got out of it. did prefer new vegas by a long way... but F3 had some great moments and was good value at that price - really enjoyed it!

I want the walking dead season 2, project zomboid, underail and BlackSoul, hope to see those games on sale!

they both have a version of the turn based VATS system - but being an FPS it has been integrated in such a way that its not 100% turn based combat (it sometimes pays off to take a pot shot to instigate combat - then use VATS).

EDIT: but you'll still have to work in realtime too

difficult to describe beyond that, but (presuming you're familir with morrowind / oblivion / skyrim at all... mix that with an amount of pausable targeting / combat abilities. can be quite strategic, but remeins fresh as the same approach wont work everytime if you die.

Okay, thanks. I saw you can pause combat in FNV and target specific body parts etc,, but I assumed F3 played differently, since I watched some real-time combat. I guess it just depends on the player and the situations then, whether the combat is fast-paced or tactical, if, like you say, they both use the same system. So the difference between them are mostly in the world and quest designs, dialogues and story?

I have downloaded and started F3 twice on PC and had the xbox 360 game for a bit. Each time I start it can only get to about an hour or 2 into it and then I'm done. Seems to totally lose me. Everyone raves about it, and I love these types of games, but I just can't seem to get past the 2 hour mark. I think it has to do with how bleak it looks, kinda depressing to the sub conscious or something.

i think the main differences are the world, the npcs, backstory and atmosphere - FNV is defintley more of a traditional fallout in those terms, fallout 3 is a bit of a tangent, but works the same way as F:NV (think the differences between oblivion and morrowind / skyrim - very much that way. in fact, skyrim seemed to borrow a lot from F:NV in some mechanics

I love quirky games so i will buy a bunch of those too! :D

Dishonored GOTY and probably nothing else, except if some irresistible deal comes up.
