Got my eye on a few others. Can't beat games for $3

I really like Rise of Nations. This is my go to game in this genre.

I picked up the Vegas map, now thinking about this...

So I've always gotten a kick out of the "News of the Bizarre" type columns where people do something so crazy or stupid it becomes news. But sometimes situations repeat themselves to the point where they are no longer bizarre. Stupid perhaps, yet commonplace. What does this have to do with the Steam Summer Sale? I'm sorry you asked......

I'm sorry because this is at least the fifth or sixth time I've gone to buy a game on Steam only to discover......I already own it. Today's entry into the bizarre was "Freemen:Guerilla Warfare" which I apparently bought during the Christmas sale and never installed.  :-"  :uglystupid2:  L:-)  Granted, I love grabbing a bargain and darn it, I'm a gamer. Still....it would probably be good for my karmic balance if I actually played the games I bought sometimes. Or even half of the games.

Oh and I'm reinstalling Skyrim. Somehow I suspect this will not end well for my unplayed game balance......

While browsing the sale I took a look at Steam's suggestions for other games I might be interested in. I found the following..................




WORLD WAR II GAMES Due to your recent playtime in other World War II games

Hidden & Dangerous 2: Courage Under Fire
-67% $9.99  $3.29

Putt-Putt® Joins the Parade
-60% $6.99  $2.79




Anybody play Putt-Putt®? I hate to blindly pick something up without somebody's take on it. Gus?  :-"

Never even heard of Putt Putt.

But that won't stop you from buying it.

Looking hard at Freeman: Guerrilla Warfare....

the comments say it modern day Mount and Blade.... great if it is....

but early access...and from the comments not clear what state the game is in.... 





Johannes "Honus" Wagner
"The Flying Dutchman"
Shortstop: Pittsburgh Pirates 1900-1917
Rated as the 2nd most valuable player of all time by Bill James.

Is it just my computer, or is the Steam "search the store" feature not working?

Happens to me too on and off. Probably depends on the work load of the servers.

I have been experiencing the same issue; I suspect its just overload as usual with Steam at times like this.
