Re: The Steam Thread: No big sales going on right now, but still awesome
So, rumor is that the Summer sale is going to FINALLY start tomorrow. Let's see if this holds true, and if there's any extra gimmicks associated with it.

Yeah, I saw this a couple of days ago. I don't know how valid it'll be though

Steam Summer Sale has started. In addition to the usual sale-long bundles, collection of daily deals, and publisher-wide discounts, there's a Community's Choice selection, and Flash Sales that only last a few hours.

Re: The Steam Thread: Summer Sale is back ON again, bitches!
And after all this time getting hyped for the sale to start...there's nothing I'm going to buy on the 1st day of the sales.
What did everyone vote for in the community choice? I picked Witcher 2.
Edit: For those too lazy to go to steam, today's daily deals:
Legend of Grimrock - $6
Crusader Kings 2 - $10
Ridge Racer Unbounded - $25
Heroes of Might & Magic VI - $25
Portal 2- $5
Modern Warfare 3 - $30
Indie Bundle 1 - $10 (see previous message about indie bundles)
Terraria - $2.50
Total War Shogun 2 - $7.50
Also, as mentioned there are flash sales and community choice sales, but those are either too short and/or uncertain for me to bother typing them up here.
And for anyone who's never participated in a steam sale before, or as a reminder to those who have, don't buy ANYTHING before the last day unless it's on a daily/flash deal. Cause the second you do, it'll wind up being even cheaper the next day.

Re: The Steam Thread: Summer Sale is back ON again, bitches!
I got Terraria and Portal 2. Debating whether to get the bethesda pack since I got this banging new laptop, and Skyrim could be fun on it...but I've been playing 360 SKyrim for months.

I can't run it anyways, so I'll keep waiting. The price will always drop a little more, and the DLC bundles will probably improve as well.

Don't really have much else to say about today's deals.

Pretty decent flash deal for Alan Wake: The original game (including both additional DLC-on-360 chapters); developer commentary audio, and videos; a PDF art book; MP3 soundtrack; and American Nightmare—which just came out in May... all for $9.99. Ends at 11AM EDT.

Universe Sandbox was like $6 so I bought it. It's fun to double the gravity in the Solar System so that everything starts getting sucked into the Sun and then blowing up the Sun.

I already picked up Trine 2 the other day as a flash deal. I'm tempted by The Walking Dead, but I've been burned by Telltale Formula Fatigue so many times in the past, so I'm wary.

I had a look at The Walking Dead's requirements, because I've heard decent things so far.
WinXP SP3, P4 2GHz+, 2GB HDD... OK, good so far...
3GB RAM, 512MB VRAM. For a Telltale game? Wha?

Re: The Steam Thread: Summer Sale is back ON again, bitches!
DLC is on sale too, which means for just $5 I picked up the Saints Row season pass DLC I could've had for free as it came out if I'd bothered to move my preorder from Steam to THQ. Oh well.

Virtually every game to go on sale also had its DLC for a similar discount. Call of Duty? Nope. I mean, you can get the whole Black Ops collection for 50% off... but that's still $50. The game is 20 months old.

Thinking about picking up Meat Boy, even though I have so much fucking progress on the 360, cause the PC version has turned into the definitive version of the game. I don't know if I can recommend the Carpe Fulgur pack or not. Recettear is awesome, but Chantellise? Not so much. I don't know anything about Fortune Summoners though. Maybe just buy Recettear separately?

Re: The Steam Thread: Summer Sale is back ON again, bitches!
Don't forget to dig a bit within the sales. For example, in addition to New Vegas, you also have the Ultimate Edition for $10, and Fallout 3 GOTY for $5. The full Alan Wake bundle mentioned before is only $2.50 more than the game alone. The Left 4 Dead flash deal is $5 for each of the two games, or $7.50 for both. The Longest Journey community choice also has Dreamfall for $5, or $6.24 for the bundle. And the original The Witcher as fazzle mentioned.
