Thank goodness the festive season is over. That Steam Winter Sale breathed down my neck for the entire duration, which got so annoying after a while that I ended up buying games just to have some peace! Seems I’ll never get to play any of them however, because there’s another menace roaming about…
And they’re peddling the same goods – cheap games, perfectly shaped to sit comfortably atop a mile high backlog. Dammit Humble Store, I don’t want any of your damn discounted titles!
Oh, 10% of whatever I spend will go to charity called Child’s Play? Well, if it’s for a good cause, then…Oh I suppose buying something won’t do any harm. Give me a moment alright? Let me go grab my credit card quickly.
Now, what do you have on offer? What could you recommend to a humble gamer such as myself?
- ARK: Survival Evolved – $17.99 (40% off)
- The Witcher (Enhanced Edition) – $1.49 (85% off)
- The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings – $2.99 (85% off)
- Alien: Isolation – $12.49 (75% off)
- Total War (Grand Master Collection) – $41.24 (75% off)
- Jet Set Radio – $1.24 (75% off)
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Legendary Edition) – $9.99 (75% off)
- The Evil Within – $8.99 (85% off)
- Wolfenstein: The New Order – $8.99 (85% off)
- Fallout: New Vegas (Ultimate Edition) – $6.79 (66% off)
- Dead Rising 3 (Apocalypse Edition) – $14.99 (70% off)
- Life is Strange (Complete Season) – $13.39 (33% off)
- Rocket League – $13.99 (30% off)
The Humble Store Winter Sale started this past weekend, and will be running all the way through to next week Thursday. There are new specials every day, so be sure to bookmark their home page (or subscribe to their newsletter) and check the specials regularly. Even with the Rand in its current state, there are still some pretty sweet deals to be found!

If only the rand was what it was a few years ago, man o man would I have spent a LOT here

Those dollar prices really screw us over now. I got Wolfenstein for R90 on Steam, Humble’s would cost me R150.
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 11:42
I got that one as well. But mine was R88.35
Alien Emperor Trevor
January 18, 2016 at 11:42
It’s called “rounding” 😛
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 11:44
Like your stomach?
Alien Emperor Trevor
January 18, 2016 at 11:48
Exactly.
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 11:57
December was not good for mine. I’ve very well rounded now, heh
Captain JJ 'saurus

He corrects spelling all the time, there is no estimations or rounding in Admiral’s world. There is only precision.
Well, at least when he’s online ;P

It’s GENTLEMAN to you!
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 12:40
Hehehe, do you know what the definition of a gentleman is?
(I’ll rather post the answer on Skype to you)
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 11:42
What else did you buy?
Alien Emperor Trevor
January 18, 2016 at 11:47
Valkyria Chronicles, Ryse, Of Orcs and Men, Marvellous Miss Take, Strider, LISA, Veneticia & Legend of Grimrock 2
Hammersteyn
January 18, 2016 at 11:51
Ooooo Strider
Alien Emperor Trevor
January 18, 2016 at 11:54
Was eyeing that for a while. Was like R30/40 or something silly.
VampyreSquirrel
January 18, 2016 at 11:55
so… you bought a whole new backlog?
Alien Emperor Trevor
January 18, 2016 at 12:02
I’ve finished one of them!
RinceThis
January 18, 2016 at 12:08
Really?!
Hammersteyn
January 18, 2016 at 12:34
Was a SP game I bet
VampyreSquirrel
January 18, 2016 at 11:59
Wait… why does steam say you have 585 games? I hope that includes your DLC
Alien Emperor Trevor
January 18, 2016 at 12:02
That’s what happens when you go crazy with indie bundles, they add up quickly.
One of the first things I bought on Steam was the id superpack, gave me 20-odd games heh.
VampyreSquirrel
January 18, 2016 at 12:17
LOL! I saw that on your list… you’ve got tons of nostalgia on your games list
Captain JJ 'saurus
January 18, 2016 at 12:33
I bought ARK two sales ago, only really started playing it this month because I bought it for a friend of mine and now I don’t have to play alone anymore.
Hammersteyn
January 18, 2016 at 11:50
Some games that I used to own (sung to the tune of somebody that I used to know -Gotye)

NO GRAMMY FOR YOU!

Thank goodness, I’d be arrested for murder if I sat between Bieber and Cyrus

Does that classifies as two girls one cup then ? 😛
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 12:18
Hammersteyn is more like a bucket…

jy weet jy kan extra charge vir so tipe “show”. hahahaha

Thor’s brother (not Loki) told her to dress properly now, I had a good laugh at that
Hammersteyn
January 18, 2016 at 12:20
He should pee on her to show his dominance. Like a dog would do. Because that’s the only real language she’ll understand
Loftus
January 18, 2016 at 12:23
If that really worked then my dog would have owned a lot of cars!
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 12:41
Somehow, that makes sense
VampyreSquirrel
January 18, 2016 at 11:51
R17 off Ark (compared to current steam price of R319)… if the rand dollar stays as is
The Grand Admiral Chief Prime
January 18, 2016 at 11:56
O_O
Hammersteyn
January 18, 2016 at 11:56
You know it’s not going to 😛
VampyreSquirrel
January 18, 2016 at 11:58
Yeah I do 😛

I need to stay way from temptations like this… I have so much other nonsense to pay off
Captain JJ 'saurus
January 18, 2016 at 13:39
Games > Nonsense
(wait, no, don’t listen to me. I make bad decisions) XD

Eish, this dollar situation is not good…

January 18, 2016 at 12:08
If the Rand Dollar exchange rate keeps going as it is, we might need to plunder the treasury for funds…
Loftus
January 18, 2016 at 12:16
I can death lift double my body weight, but if the rand continues to free fall we’ll be able to pick up enough money from the treasury.
Waiting for that R500.00 to be printed, no more randellas more like Zumarand
Captain JJ 'saurus
January 18, 2016 at 12:31
If you missed the Steam sale and have to buy games here in Dollar, I feel sorry for you.
Still great deals though. 😀

Sounds like a weird Popeye laugh
