You're tearing me apart Valve!

Ah well either tomorrow or Thursday I guess, leaning towards Thursday.
 
lol, I don't remember the mega sales striking exactly on the clock like the regular sales.

I think it could just jump up and bite us on the ass at any time really...

I just got a couple random game updates Hamilton's Hideaway, Beat Hazard, etc.

Definitely sale prep stuff.

Valve: "Play some indie games, and maybe you'll unlock the Summer Sale early lol!"

For every casual/indie game that goes on sale instead of the summer sale, a piece of me dies in agony.

what if they dont do a summer sale because they do daily sales instead ;) ?

I would hate Valve forever...or until the holiday sale. These daily deals suck.

For what it's worth the previous summer sale began around 2:30 EST on Thursday the 24th. I remember people here flipping out since it didn't all go up instantaneously. The discounts were applied before the splash page went up. It was like Thousands of items in the Specials tab. Took around an hour to get up and working I think.

Thursay or Friday is my bet for the Summer Sale. I leave on Vacation Thursday and will be up in the Mountains with no internet for 5 days so there are pretty good odds I will get screwed.
Almost exactly the same situation for me. :lol

Hey, Peggle is a good game though! It's too bad Peggle Nights, you know, the one I don't have, that's the newer one, isn't on sale at all!

Peggle Nights is the daily deal, guys! Rejoice!
Not in my region (US).

Exactly... just like the xmas sales.

I love how people assume there will be a summer sale just because there was one last year.

People: last years summer sale was the first one and it came out of the blue. Just because it happened around this time last year doesn't mean it'll happen again.

Yea... I know a few devs hinted/confirmed the summer sale, but it might not be for a couple more weeks for all I know. Or it could be later today... who knows?

Everyone else is having one or already had one. Valve needs to stay competitive by having one and not slack off just because they're the top dog. These crummy indie daily deals aren't going to do it.

I find it odd that Peggle is on sale but not the Peggle Complete Pack (which I would have bought at 50% off).

Yeah. The intense sense of entitlement is silly.

"Guess there won't be a sale at all because it didn't go up today. I'M DONE WITH STEAM."

Well, you already have 900 games on Steam. Sorry if we want to get there too.

Just kidding. It is stupid to get upset over this.

Summer sale was awesome last year but it wont be a big deal if it doesn't happens this year. All of you guys have about 100+ games you need to finish so play during these days instead of buying more games ya wont finish ;)

Origin people...dont understand
 
Brilliant planning by Valve. We will all be high on Peggles by the time the sales start, thus we will be even more wasteful with our money!

I hope darksiders doesn't go on sale during the summer sale. I just couldn't wait and pulled the trigger on the game last night.

Beautiful art direction in that game <3 Joe Mad
