Prices good until January 3rd.

So much good shit I don't even know where to start.

STALKER for $2
Mirror's Edge for $5
Lucas Arts adventure pack for $2.50
Braid for $2.50
Audiosurf for $2.50 (seriously if you don't already own this, and don't pick it up for $2.50 you're a failure as a person)
Space Quest collection for $5

Ugh I'm gonna wind up spending too much money here.

 

[KingPK]

I've had Audiosurf on my radar for a while. For $2.50, fucking sold.

 

[oldskool]

STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl is 90% off, for $2. I don't know whether that's a bargain for a $20 game or a desperate attempt to sell something that's not worth $2...

 

[fazzle]

Stalker is definitely worth $2

 

[oldskool]

Tropico 3 half-price, and the entirety of Sam & Max, Monkey Island, Wallace & Gromit, and Bone's games, plus a holdem clone & the Strongbad game for $49? Well, I'm broke.

...strange thing is, the Telltale Games are selling that huge pack for $49, but still selling a pack for $99 that doesn't include the Monkey Island or Wallace & Gromit portions of the cheaper set.

 

[Just Burny]

Hmmm, I'm positive when I looked earlier the monkey island collection wasn't on there, I've seen it now though, and that's too good to turn down for €49.
As well as that i'll probably get the lucas arts adventure pack, The unreal pack, jewel quest & puzzle quest...shit, and the eidos interactive one is too good to turn down too. That's not even bringing up their daily sales.

So far I've just gotten Defence grid: the awakening & serious sam HD.

STALKER is one of the few games that is legitimately scary, mostly because it feels real. The developers put a lot of effort into making "the Zone" have a life of its own, and for the most part it works. There are some problems with it (The accuracy and damage physics need a little tweaking), but there are mods which fix those pretty easily along with giving better textures. Definitely worth $2.

It's back to $10 now though, cause it was part of the 1 day only sale, not the full steam sale

 

[LPM]

I picked up Stalker, Torchlight, Mirror's Edge, and some tower defense game for 20 bucks. Torchlight is wicked, real nice slimmed down Diablo clone.

The setting is lifted pretty much wholesale from some Russian movie, so that has to help the realism

Somehow MW2 is the #2 selling game, even though it's $10 more than any other game (as well as most on-sale bundle packs!), hasn't gone on sale once since its release, to my knowledge, and had a big-ass boycott group.

 

[fazzle]

Today's 1 day only sales:

Dead Space - $10.20
Popcap Collection - $50
Zombie Driver - $2.50
Hearts of Iron 3 - $7.50
Day Of Defeat: Source - $2.50

Not really anything there to interest me today.

 

[oldskool]

I thought Zombie Driver would be cool, but I got bored of it during a video review so suffice to say it's not getting purchased.

 

[fazzle]

Some decent deals today.

FIFA Manager 10 - $33.50
Call of Duty: World At War - $25
Max Payne - $2.50
Max Payne 2 - $2.50
Civ 4 - $6.80
Osmos - $2
Left 4 Dead Game of the Year edition - $7.50

 

[oldskool]

Civ4 + the 3 expansions is just $13.60 as well, which I would not know had I not scrolled past the deals to the Top Sellers chart.

Somehow MW2 is third. CoD fans are morons.

 

[oldskool]

Final 8 hours & 45 minutes of the sale, just a re-hash of the best deals thus far. GTA4, STALKER again, Bioshock which has been on sale twice because of when they ran out of tags for Prey, L4D2, Torchlight (damn it, I buy it for $10 and then within 2 weeks they drop its price to $5 TWICE), Defense Grid & Killing Floor (which I finally picked up).

My Steam games list is huge now.

 

[fazzle]

During the sale, I picked up:

Audiosurf as a gift
Left 4 Dead 2 as a gift
Lucas Arts Adventure Pack
Ben There Dan That/Time Gentlemen, Please double pack
Jack Keane
Torchlight
Puzzle Quest Galactrix
Zombie Bowl-O-Rama
STALKER
