Particularly at the beginning with that kid it's a real turn off. The game does have some potential and I do quite enjoy the core game play, it's just what you have to go through to reach that part. I also didn't care for the early game puzzle where you have to find the 4 kids. I basically used youtube to beat it because I couldn't find one of them and the other was in a tree and I couldn't figure out how to get him down.

Going back to Ace Attorney one last time, the first full release of the AAI2 translation has happened.

This. Lungfishopolis is probably the easiest level in the game?
Because I'm terrible at games. Except platformers. Those I'm good at. Lungfishopolis was not a platformer and was NOT easy, at least not that I remember. I kept dying to things that were shooting at me.

ah yes. Well the shield power is your friend.

But if you are good at the platforming aspect, you need to return for the platforming infernos/heavens that are the final "real world" level and the Meat Circus.

Look at the last summer sale's deals.

You're 80% planned for this year.

EARLY ACCESS MAKES ME SO CHANGRY.

Also... Xenonauts is basically a ripoff of Xcom, right?

Got Enemy Within for $10. Considering Skyrim at the same price. I dont' think I'll like it, but for ten bucks, maybe worth a shot?

What are these "teams" you speak of?

Skyrim was kind of a bust for me. Can't really say why. I just have trouble really feeling that game I guess.

Click the map on the featured page, then the 'get started' button to be assigned to a team. Its just for bonus cards and a chance at free wishlist games.

Come on red team, stop being last :(

Skyrim is a game that will almost most definitely get its own flash sale or daily sale, it did during the Winter Sale. Wait a couple days, it will drop to like 5 or 7 bucks. Also, I would get the legendary edition, since it has all of the dlcs.

This is the principle of steam sales. Wait for daily sales and flash sales for your games :P, if they haven't gone on sale by the end of the sale, then buy them on the second last day.

I don't really know why i'd bother with the legendary edition unless it makes the base game significantly more fun rather than offering EVEN MORE content, as if I'll play through the whole base game.

Maybe if Legendary edition drops to 10 or close to it?

The only game I really want so far is Sins, and even that's like "Eeeeehhhh not worth $8 today."

Also, Green Team in the house.

Man, I want to buy the Arma 2, Arma 2 OA, and Arma 2 DLCs bundle right now so I can finally play the Dayz Mod, but I know it will likely get a larger discount later... ;_;

They're pretty different, Standalone isn't as developed yet for the most part, so I wanna play and try out the mod. Plus I got friends on the mod rather than the SA right now.

Things I'm considering:
Don't Starve at 3.74
Mirror's Edge at 4.99
EDIT: Also Hotline: Miami at less than $2 seems kind of irresistable
