    Just a quick question. I had to reset my Steam password and I'm logging in from a new computer. Is the lockout just a marketplace lockout?

    Thinking about picking up CS, Terraria and maybe the Bit Trip Runner games during the sale and was wondering if this would have any effect on me making purchases.

    You used to have to reenter all your payment data after a password reset but could do purchases after that. I haven't had to do it in ages though, so it might have changed.

    Kerbal usually goes to 14.99 or 12.99 i think. Could get lucky though!

    I don't mind that, sure I only use pre pay credit cards for online payments, and that information has probably changed in the meantime. Just saw a list of lockouts on my profile (new device, password reset, stuff like that) and wasn't sure if that would effect buying anything.

    Thanks!

    The MP is in development. I think it will be called Class 4. The original title for State of Decay was Class 3.

    I want to give Valkyria Chronicles a go after hearing a lot of good things about it, but not right now. And Borderlands the Pre-Sequel's been on my wishlist a good while, but maybe in the summer I'll get it. Too much backlog yet.

    Holding out for Wolfenstein at a decent price, or Mark of the Ninja.

    Gal Civ III and Valkyria Chronicles are interesting me.

    Total War Master Collection is a pretty epic deal if you're starting out in the series. 75% off (€27.49). Daily Deal.

    Looking at Shogun 2 at 66% off (€10.19). Don't know will it dip?

    I have Medieval 2, Rome, Rome 2 and Empire. Medieval 2 was by far the most enjoyable to me.

    That worries me as well, which is what's stopping me on buying it immediately. Gal Civ needs lots of work from what I've read but it's supposed to be at that stage but again, wondering if the discount is big enough yet.

    Gal Civ looks horribly unpolished for me, not interested at all in it. Shame as Civilisation in space sounded cool. Looks like a rush job though I could be wrong.

    Edit - thought you meant Civ: Beyond Earth.

    Well I liked Gal Civ II quite a lot. I've a fair amount of faith that the game will launch in a decent enough state and they've a good enough history for patching things up to standard if it isn't. But yeah, right now it's very much what beta used to mean 10 years ago not what beta means today.

    Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is currently going for €3.99

    It's kinda tempting me but what would it be like dipping into for someone who hasn't played the metal gear series since the PS1 :o

    It's completely different and a standalone game, it stars Raiden who was in the second game and is totally action based with little of the stealth aspect of the full series
    if you have played Vanquish, Devil May Cry or Bayonetta you will know what to expect

    The story went from quirky action flick to out and out nonsense a long time ago so the plot doesn't matter and anyway this game goes out of its way to be very tongue in cheek with how awful the story is. You don't play it for the plot but more so to enjoy the awesome battle system and laugh at the game having a go at itself.

    Never played any of those really. I guess I'm wondering if it was a standalone plot, or would I have had to have played the other games in the series

    Just brought Castle Crashers there for €1.19! Looks like a good game by looking at the reviews.
