    Hey Everyone,
     
    Just curious how much damage did the Steam Perils of Summer sale do to your free time and sanity.
     
    Here's what I picked up over the course of the week long journey with Steam. 
     
    Clive Barker's Jericho (Gift)
    Commandos Pack
    Introversion Pack
    Freedom Force Pack
    GTA: San Andreas
    Just Cause 2
    Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
    Killing Floor
    Lead and Gold
    Left 4 Dead
    The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom
    Overlord Pack
    Red Faction: Guerilla
    Shatter 
    Civilization IV: Complete Pack
    Thief: Deadly Shadows
    Zeno Clash
     
     
    I have no idea when I am going to have time for all of this. They were such good deals though. 
     
    Hit me up on Steam!

    Jesus... and I though I was bad by buying The Witcher and Red Faction: Guerrilla. I have got to lay off the new game buys until my productivity is up to a sane level and my game catalog isn't backed up on a wait list months long.

    I purchased:
    Crysis
    Xcom Pack
    Introversion Pack 
    Lead and Gold
    Puzzle Kingdoms
    Rouge Warrior
     
    I'm happy with all of these games so far, especially Puzzle Kingdoms, although I must admit I never played Puzzle Quest.

    Hmm lets see what I bought. 
     
    Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 (Gift to a friend) 
    Left 4 Dead 2(Gift to friend) 
    Street Fighter IV 
    Bioshock 
    Bioshock 2 
    Red Faction: Guerilla 
    Osmos 
    Flotilla 
     
    and it wasn't on Sale but I also bought the Arma 2 Combined Operations pack. 
     
    Overall, I'm pretty pleased with everything I bought. I would say Osmos may be the one game I probably could have lived without, but even so it's an interesting take on feeding frenzy.

    Eve Online, because I hate myself and want to force my brain to deal with several thousand diffrent menus
     
    and Assassins Creed II, because wrist blades are badass.
     
    And for some reason all I want to play Is Minecraft.

    It was worth $20 for its excessive profanity alone.   It still has one of my favorite quick looks.

    Thankfully, I wasn't home for most of the sale, otherwise it would have probably destroyed my wallet and my ego. I bought:
     

    • X-COM Apocalypse (yes, the not so good one. But it was $3)
    • Thief Deadly Shadows
    • Star Wars: Empire at War Gold
    • Civilization IV Complete (Even though I'm not the biggest fan of Civ)
    • Heroes of Might and Magic V: Tribes of the East (even though my computer can barely run it.)

    I got....
     
    Mount&Blade: Warbands- $14.99 - I loved the first, although the new combat is throwing me so much, I'm having trouble getting into it. 

    Introversion Complete Pack- $5 - I actually wanted Darwinia and Defcon, yet to play Uplink because everytime I go to download it tells me that the server's are busy, but whatevs.
     
    Trine - $4 - Nice little 2D platformer, yet to play it extensively, lack of save points is frustrating. 

     Men of War: Gold Edition - $8.74 - Probably the best RTS I've ever played. I know I'm gonna sink a lot of hours clocking this.
     
    Osmos - $2.49 -  Really nice game, but a bit frustrating, needs to be played in spurts.
     
    Civ IV Complete Edition - $29.99 - No explanation necessary, although a bit peeved it was dropped to $10 the day after I bought it.
     
    GRAND TOTAL: $65.21

    This sale was great. I really can't wait for the Holiday sale. 
     
    However, I am peeved at Amazon. I ordered a 1.5 TB drive from them last Sunday, and it just now shipped. Need more space for all these games. 
     
    I am glad to see I wasn't the only one who went crazy on Steam.
     
    My best purchase by far is Shatter for $2.50. That game is all kinds of fun.
