***The Official STEAM/PC gaming thread, with STEAM ID's***

[Saulbadguy]

I've seen enough people around here discuss PC gaming and Steam deals, that it warrants a thread of it's own.

I will add STEAM ID's to the thread header.

This has been a dud of a summer sale so far. Which is good for my wallet.

[Gravedigger]

It's just the winter sale rehashed. Unless they discount something new I already have all these games. In fact I bought some of them in last years Summer Sale. Gimme Dark Souls 2 for 20-30 bucks, that's what I'm waiting for.

[Ragged Robin]

picked up ME2 and Dragon Age ultimate edition or w/e

[pr_capone]

NBA2K14 for $7.49

[ragedogg69]

jazzpunk for the same price. nothing earth shattering but the humor is right up my alley.

That was free for Playstation Plus either this month or the month before, it was on the PS3 though so I passed on it.

You have to pay for ps plus tho.

So it's not really free.

It's like $4 a month. In the past 8 months they've given us 32 games between PS4 and PS3 .

Admittedly the PS4 games haven't been anything special besides Resogun and Outlast, but once the PS4's catalog gets bigger the PS4 will start getting the AAA titles that the PS3 gets every month.

Picked up The Swapper and The Stanley Parable

[hometeam]

pulled the trigger on prison architect, was 3 keys, so sale price is 10.99 or whatever, i got it for 6.74 cents via key trade.

Still cant believe I got witcher 3 pre order for 9 keys. Thats $20.25 in key trade. SMOKIN deal.

[ragedogg69]

i have read the FAQ on /r/gameswap or whatever but I still do not understand the whole keys thing. can you ELI5?

[ragedogg69]

well, picked up wolf and battle blocks. not bad.

Ok its super easy. If you go to the community tab on steam, open the drop down menu at the bottom and select MARKET.

You buy tf2 box keys with dollars, and then trade the tf2 keys to the sellers for a gift copy of the game. Then, activate your gift copy into inventory. Its super easy.

you can get MOST games this way. But, some games are region locked, and you cant get them. Basically, prices for steam games vary widely from US/EU/RUS. Say a game here is on sale for 10 bucks. Well in RUS its equivelant of like 5 bucks. So the RUS guy buys the game, trades it for tf2 keys which he turns into USD. So you might pay 7 bucks in tf2 keys, for a game he paid 5 USD for. He makes 2 bucks, you pay a couple bucks less too.

For whatever reason, witcher 3 is on sale in RUS right now for next to nothing, thats why they are only bringing 9 keys @ 2.25 each key.

So what you're saying is that it's not free. Yes, we know.

PSN is also the worst network for gaming on the face of the earth. Every time the wind blows it seems to go down.

It's the main reason I didn't buy a ps4.
