The Sale is officially starting today?

If you mean officially as in "we hope so", then yes.

 

[Fox318]

The Sale is officially starting today?

Yes, it won't. Maybe?

 

[gabbo]

The Sale is officially starting today?

Seems to be the word on the GAF street

 

[hlhbk]

With layoffs coming and the fact I could still be looking for a job during the xmas sale I will be picking up what I can during this one. That being said I need to be careful about how much I spend.

 

[Mengy]

Three hours to go folks! Celebrating by giving away the following:

AI War: Fleet Command

Quote for the one you want.

Sure, I'd like that one!

LOL, way too slowwww

 

[mercenar1e]

Seems to be the word on the GAF street

mhmm... the word was wrong a few times before, so..

 

[sazzy]

Sure, I'd like that one!

LOL, way too slowwww

If you're posting more than 1 minute after the offer is made, its safe to assume its gone

But you can't be any geek off the street, gotta be handy with the steel if you know what I mean, earn your keep.

 

[wonderboyjones]

Giveaway for The Darkness II while we wait. The main thread seems to have gotten drowned so thought I'd post it here as well. Ends right before the sale starts, good luck.

And BOOM goes the dynamite

 

[Martian]

I hope Fallout will go on sale, missed out last time (I think it was about 5 euros) so hopefully next week will be as good as last time.

Last summersale I only got Terraria for 5 bucks, so maybe I can score more of those smaller deals!

 

[atomsk]

we are all waiting. and watching.

 

[kodt]

Hey guys, let's not buy any games during the steam sale, and clear our backlogs first ok?

Guys? ... are you with me? ... Guys?

 

[DyTonic]

Dibs on the next free game giveway.

 

[Jzero]

Couldn't sleep from so much hype. 3 more hours to go.

 

[Fireblend]

All I want for this sale is Skyrim at 50% or more. Really, my backlog is so ridiculously big I'm not even considering anything else.

Spoiler

I'll buy tons of games anyway

. Can't wait!

 

[sazzy]

you're that excited about spending money? :\

 

[1-D_FTW]

mhmm... the word was wrong a few times before, so..

That was speculation devoid of any evidence. It was wishful thinking in fact. Because there's anyways been lots of evidence in place beforehand. The evidence is now in place. And nobody of any merit was throwing any date (other than the 12th) once our wishful date of the 28th passed.

In short: PREPARE! TODAY IS THE DAY!

 

[gabbo]

mhmm... the word was wrong a few times before, so..

When something is brought to you by the letters G, A, and F; buyer beware.

 

[Recall]

Once the sale begins will they have a seperate category to display which games are on sale? Last time I missed a few games as I forgot to check if they were on sale

 

[Semblance]

Should be in the ToS.

 

[Nemesis121]

Finally i get to spend $5 on day 1...hopefully..

 

[vitaminwateryum]

They will, it's called the entire store. BOOM.

 

[Buttonbasher]

BOOOM.

 

[Leonsito]

Remember guys: DON'T BUY ANYTHING OUTSIDE THE DAILY DEALS UNTIL THE LAST DAY

 

[Fantastical]

GABE 2012

Yeah but World War 2: Episode 1 was one hell of a war.

 

[1-D_FTW]

And just another reason to just throw games on your wishlist. It's easy to forget what you're interested in. This way, when the sales roll around, you have them all in one convenient place and can easily see what kind of discount it got.

Remember guys: DON'T BUY ANYTHING OUTSIDE THE DAILY DEALS UNTIL THE LAST DAY

Unless it's niche and already has its 50 - 90 percent markdown. I'm buying Race Injection today and have no fear it's going to be featured as a daily.

Please be sarcasm...please

mhmm... the word was wrong a few times before, so..

It came from here: http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...1268454&postcount=7+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ie a few weeks ago however and in addition to all of the bundles being added it seems highly likely to be true this time. It's a webcached version as the Steam forum requires you to be logged in to view the post.

 

[sazzy]

Please be sarcasm...please

 

[ekim]

Assuming the sale not starting today : what will you guys do then?

 

[Kerub]

It's so close..I can almost taste it.

That would be great. Alternatively I'll take Fallout 3 and NV at dirt cheap.

Doesn't matter, there are always some great external sites that keep track on all that. People will link to those here on GAF, so don't worry

 

[DyTonic]

Please be sarcasm...please

Is the sky red?

 

[sazzy]

Assuming the sale not starting today : what will you guys do then?

it will be bad for a lot of people here. a lot.

 

[jgminto]

Just playing surf in TF2 until the sale goes up. I kind of don't want it to go up today though. The outrage would be amazing.

I better start figuring out what Indie games I want then and get that wishlist into shape

Plus the mid-week sale ending at the suspicious time of 10:00 PST. This only happens during the seasonal sales. It's like Valve wants people to know without actually having to come out and say it.

 

[MRORANGE]

emailing Gabe to cancel the sale as it devalues games.

maybe he's worried about the size of our backlogs.

 

[coopolon]

Can you trade Steam wallet funds yet? Thinking in regards to bundles and selling games in Steam.

 

[hlhbk]

Awesome!

 

[Baha]

Actually the thing i like is the treasure hunting.

 

[Interfectum]

Awesome!

hahahahaahahah

 

[snoopeasystreet]

Awesome!

Someone needs to gif that for the sale thread.

 

[thecheese]

I'm unemployed, out of money, and don't need any more games.

But gods be damned if I'm not spending my remaining credit card balance on the steam sale.
