You should play Witcher 2. That game is good.

So the encore sales are just those listed on the 2 day sales? No more extra? no more change? Pretty su*k leh like this ... this year sale so lausy ... feel like getting DS2 but then they say wait for the repackage pack, Rome2 DLC so little discount, payday 2 a lot say not much diff from payday 1 ..... thinking of bioshock whole series for RM18 would I miss anything w/o dlc?

Is there a page you guys post sales gem? Like games that is under the shadow of all those big title that deserve a look?

Payday 2 has a lot more content than Payday 1, and way more players.

Bioshock whole series for RM18? Great value, I would recommend if you are a person who values the story being woven into the game. The DLC isn't necessary so I suggest playing the 3 base games and then deciding if you're interested in the DLC.

Encore sales are just previous highlighted deals brought back one last time before sales end. It won't offer new deals. But usually it's only 1 day. What's the point dragging it to 2 days shakehead.gif

The RM18 Bioshock Pack doesn't include DLC for Bioshock 2 and Bioshock Infinite.

For hidden gems, I just refer here

Not sure if it is client side stuff on my end, but I woke up this morning and noted some changes to the prices.

I had Far Cry 3 on my wishlist last night during the update, and last I checked at 3am it was 50%. Today morning, it was 75%....strange.

After sorting through the deals and my wishlist, nothing stands out. Narrowed it down to 4 games wondering if I should pull the trigger :

Far Cry 3
Recettear
BlazBlue Calamity Trigger
Epic Battle Fantasy 4

What about the dlc?
*
None of the DLCs give you overpowered weapons or so but enhances the experience and gives you more options. The weapons in the base version are considered by many as the strongest anyway, but DLC gives you more weapons and variations.

Option 1 - Don't buy any DLC, make do with base version.

Option 2 - Buy 1 DLC. Of all the DLCs, I recommend the Gage Mod Courier which gives you the biggest impact out of all the DLCs, unless you're into specialized weapons like the sniper rifle.

Option 3 - best option. Screw it, buy the GOTY version with EVERYTHING.

Happy heisting.

How did you guys cleared your backlogs from purchasing so many games?
Mine is still manageable i think,
9 games in gifts (intending to play them after i finish my backlogs)  and 22 games in library.

If your backlog can be cleared, you ain't doing it right.

Speaking of piracy, this is hilarious, especially if you have played Game Dev Tycoon
user posted image
TL;DR
1. Dev upload torrent of his game, advertising it as the pirated version, complete with all the greetings and text from your usual pirate download
2. 1 major thing he add in the "pirated version" : The customer base in the game will pirate the player released game frequently, until they go bankrupt

Pirates reaction

Racettear is seriously unique. Fortune summoners too but their difficulty curve so high.

Dunno about the other game though. Still. RACETTEAR!!!

I bought Recettear during the sale. 1 day after the sale, it's now on 80%.
Epic trolled.
