I rented Soul Caliber 4 instead.

But yeah, it looks like a good sale.

Wow, I always wanted to try Everyday Shooter. I may just get the 75% off pack.

Too bad I already have freaking Audiosurf. At least I got THAT during Steam's holiday sale.

I have to wonder how this is cutting into the profits of the indie game developers.

Well, I'm wondering at what point the sale breaks even with if there hadn't been one.

I doubt the sale made them angry.

Oh, now I get why they call it Everyday Shooter.

Because I'm going to be playing it every day. Holy crap it's fun.

I am very satisfied with this deal so far. World of Goo, Crayon Physics Deluxe, Braid, holy hell this is awesome.

Yeah, they have a lot of stuff for PC that's easily available these days.

Much better than the bad old days where it took forever to find games.

Audiosurf and Darwinia are the best games so far. (Mr. Robot could be good as well; haven't done much with it yet) Still working on downloading Braid, World of Goo, and The Path. The first two are going to be the best overall if what I've played of them before is anything to go by.

I feel like small indie developers would rather a lot of people play their games, even if they don't make quite as much profit.
