Steam Summer Sale Event "What did you buy?" thread of 2013!

[FFStudios]

I bought Civilization 5 Gold Edition as my first ever Civ game, and man am I having fun with it. Everything I've read couldn't possibly be wrong because I find myself falling into that "just one more turn" rut everytime I launch it. I end up playing til the wee hours of the morning before I realize the time.

It would seem, my friend, you've become hooked on Civ. As a kid in the 90s, I remember playing Civ II a lot on our DOS computer and it having the same effect on me. When I got older, I quickly fell in love with Alpha Centauri and Alien Crossfire for the same reasons.

I never played Civ 3 and was very unimpressed with Civ 4, but Civ 5 is an amazing game. I'll get around to buying the Brave New World expansion eventually; just waiting for it to go on sale so I can maximize my Steam wallet.

I had several items in my cart on Saturday night but ended up putting together an entertainment center and forgot to purchase them. :| I guess I'll have to wait for the Winter sale. :p

I am glad I procrastinated on Ys Origin though. It's cheaper this week on the Midweek sale than it was last week. I may end up getting all 3 Ys games for just a hair more than what Origins would have cost me.
