Good game to buy on Steam for $25

iKhan · Aug 18, 2012, 03:49 PM

Got a refund from Steam. Instead of a refund via PayPal they gave me $25 in Steam Wallet.

It's Saturday and I'm SUPER bored. I was going to pre-order BO II, but the 25 is burning a hole in my pocket

Tribes Ascend. It's free but you can use the money for unlocks. :P

The Sniper Elite v2 is fun and on sale this weekend. If you don't have it, I'd recommend it.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Aug 19, 2012, 01:02 AM

I too recommend Sniper Elite V2. I have burned quiet a few hours here lately playing it.

Widjaja · Aug 19, 2012, 01:19 AM

What kind of game genre do you prefer most?

iKhan · Aug 19, 2012, 06:16 AM

I've put over 600 hours into BFBC2 and still going, but lately I've been getting bored of it. Have BF3 and hate it. Still playing Skyrim. Mafia II and Driver SF. These are just games I love to play.

hellrazor · Aug 19, 2012, 06:35 AM

Yeah, go for Tribes and waste your money on upgrades.

NC37 · Aug 19, 2012, 07:57 AM

Orcs Must Die! 2

Then use the rest to get the first game or something else.

Course you'll want to play OMD2 with another person. Some of the levels are built with COOP in mind.

I play tribes often and found it is a fun game for the most part.

Buyig the starter pack/VIP pass is a help and worth the money if you are into shooters.
It helps with getting the weapons which maybe of better use.

Anyone play Ghost Recon Future Solider? It's on sale right now.

erixx · Aug 23, 2012, 09:12 PM

Just bought GR FS.... back to the saga.

BTW, Ghost Recon Open Beta (free) is an excellent game for the thinking gamer. http://ghost-recon.ubi.com/ghost-rec...ne/en-GB/home/

Save it for a steam sale. Then pick up 5 good games.

I second that motion. Steam always has recurring sales every now and again including the big ones like the Summer Sale and New Years Sale. A game you always thought of getting will appear on that list soon enough, if not, then New Years is only 3+ months away

iKhan · Aug 24, 2012, 12:59 AM

Coudln't resist spending it....bought Mirrors Edge, GRID, and Just Cause. Oh well, I wanted these games anyways.

Valve will surely rape my wallet during the next sale regardless

xxdozer322 · Aug 24, 2012, 01:23 AM

CSS. nuff said. its still part of my addiction alongside BF3. ive logged 2,583.4 hrs on CSS lol.

erixx · Aug 24, 2012, 12:52 PM
