so i'm kinda new to this stuff, do you guys think that vampire: the masquerade - bloodlines, and kotor will drop more in price than what they already have?

Easy rule;
- If it's a daily sale, buy it on the daily sale.
- If it's not a daily sale, wait until the last day just in case. You can never be sure.

Why don't people seem to notice that they are on sale on GoG right now during their Summer “Staycation” Interplay promotion for only $2.99 each along with everything else??

Standard reply: "But it's not on Steam"

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Crim, you doing the sale thread?

I can't. I'll be busy during the next week, so I don't think I'll be able to update it much.

If you want to do it then go ahead.

 

[Schmattakopf]

Lol, almost 50 games for 50 bucks in the Strategy First pack: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/8687/

To be fair, most of those games are mediocre at best.

 

[IndieJones]

Yup. You people are failing the test before the 1st day even officially began.

WAIT for games that aren't on a daily deal. They'll be 25% or 33% or whatever they are for the duration of the sale.

Unless... they run out of keys!

PANIC!

wow. I think that may be a pricing error that will be changed soon.

 

[Princess Skittles]

A.R.E.S. is $5? I'm glad I skipped on the pack earlier, I think that'll be my first Steam Summer victim.

Or.. should I really wait on that as suggested? weneedtogocheaper.gif?

Yes, that's been mentioned numerous times. I want Steam because:
a) everything is in one place
b) I don't backup any games and don't trust GOG about giving me infinite re-download availability after their "we're going out of business" stunt.

 

[NaM]

Can someone gift me SSFIV:AE? It's not available in my region. I can gift back WHATEVER YOU WANT.

Spoiler

please?

 

[ZZMitch]

The only games on my wishlist that are not on sale are EA published.

Risk Factions
Bulletstorm
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit

I am sad.

 

[The_Player]

There's amazingly almost nothing that I want.

It isn't begun yet. Have a patience.

 

[Sober]

Have they ever discounted anything already at 75% even further though?

 

[Stabby McSter]

Darksiders is pretty likely to go on sale, right? D:

 

[mxgt]

SO MUCH STUFF, WHAT TO BUY

 

[ElyrionX]

Is the Steam client fucking up for anyone? I keep getting a no results page when I look through the specials section.

 

[Ramma2]

Borderlands 5$, All DLC $7.50

 

[SteveWinwood]

Not really. Sales take a while. Maybe an hour.

I seem to remember it only taking like 10 mins before... maybe I just don't remember things.

 

[PaulLFC]

RAILWORKS 2 AND ALL DLC 50% OFF BUY IT NOW!!!

 

[Jo-El]

Darksiders is pretty likely to go on sale, right? D:

Very likely.

 

[Sanic]

Darksiders is pretty likely to go on sale, right? D:

It's already 33% off.

 

[Rapstah]

Is the Steam client fucking up for anyone? I keep getting a no results page when I look through the specials section.

Searches don't work at all right now. Too bad since pretty much everything links to a search.

 

[Oreoleo]

Darksiders is pretty likely to go on sale, right? D:

Totally.

 

[Forkball]

Darksiders is pretty likely to go on sale, right? D:

It's been cheaper, so I think it will.

Everyone needs to wait for the page to actually update before buying anything.

 

[JaseC]

A.R.E.S. is $5? I'm glad I skipped on the pack earlier, I think that'll be my first Steam Summer victim.

Couldn't hurt. I have a text file with all my intended purchases so I can cross-check them with the daily specials.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

It seems like 0 EA titles are on sale individuals, so the packs and probably daily deals are the only way we'll see them for sale. :|

 

[blackpensnowbird]

Easy rule;
- If it's a daily sale, buy it on the daily sale.

thanks, i'll be sure to live by your guidelines!

 

[ClovingWestbrook]

Salsa, can you do the Summer thread?

 

[Nabs]

It seems like 0 EA titles are on sale individuals, so the packs and probably daily deals are the only way we'll see them for sale. :|

ahahahaha

 

[mojiimbo]

Hmm, Counter Strike Source is $13 but the CS Source + Garry's Mod bundle is $6.

 

[kharma45]

Anyone think MOH will go lower than £6.79?

http://store.steampowered.com/app/47790/?snr=1_5_9__13

Already 66% off it.

 

[SteveWinwood]

RAILWORKS 2 AND ALL DLC 50% OFF BUY IT NOW!!!

NOW ITS ONLY $700!

 

[JaseC]

Have they ever discounted anything already at 75% even further though?

An extra 5-10% isn't out of the question.

 

[Relax.MX]

The Witcher 2 just 13 in Russia??

 

[balladofwindfishes]

It's been cheaper, so I think it will.

Yea I know

People are really, really excited

[Princess Skittles]

Couldn't hurt. I have a text file with all my intended purchases so I can cross-check them with the daily specials.

But this is like, set in stone, right? There's nothing to lose by waiting until the 11th?

 

[Drkirby]

I guess SFIV:AE is the only Unreleased game to go on a real sale. Capcom "does not understand sales", this time though to our advantage.

 

[drhankmccoyphd]

Polynomial 66% off. Would go great with all the music I've found on turntable.fm. Must remain strong.

 

[metsallica]

Anyone who hasn't bitten on Bit.Trip.Runner needs to at that price. Seriously, one of my GOTY last year.

MINE TOO, do it or anonymous message board people will totally hate on you.

 

[cicero]

A.R.E.S. is $5? I'm glad I skipped on the pack earlier, I think that'll be my first Steam Summer victim.

Or.. should I really wait on that as suggested? weneedtogocheaper.gif?

Really? The Indie Variety Pack was only $10 to begin with for all five games. I might have blown it by thinking that Steam would do another $5 pack during the sale.

A.R.E.S.: Extinction Agenda
Atom Zombie Smasher
Capsized
Machinarium
Swords and Soldiers HD

 

[JaseC]

Salsa, can you do the Summer thread?

If he does the thread, people will bitch about how it was unnecessary it is. Salsa is cursed!

But this is like, set in stone, right? There's nothing to lose by waiting until the 11th?

Correct. At worst, you waited some days before purchasing the game/s.

 

[IrishNinja]

The only game left on my wishlist that is not on sale is Psychonauts.

haha me too!

oh god holding out on dreamfall and vampire's gonna be hard, just to see if they're daily-dealed..ps that witcher 2 price is insane; russia-GAF, we need to get a gifting thing going, please!

ps wait dreamfall's 75%, they're not gonna beat that usually anyway.

 

[HBroward]

But this is like, set in stone, right? There's nothing to lose by waiting until the 11th?

The only time it was an issue was when they ran out of Prey keys, and never got any more.

 

[Rodney McKay]

Is Wolfenstein not on sale AGAIN!?! RAGE IF TRUE!!!

 

[amdnv]

30 minutes in, and the main page has not updated yet.

 

[Veitsev]

It seems like 0 EA titles are on sale individuals, so the packs and probably daily deals are the only way we'll see them for sale. :|

EA hates money confirmed.

 

[Schmattakopf]

I'm going to lunch, too stressful watching and refreshing.

Yeah screw this, there's ironing to be done.

 

[Vyrance]

You guys are getting too antsy. Wait for the actual daily deals to load up. Anything showing on sale right now for like 25-33% off will most likely be on sale later on for cheaper.

 

[Cerepol]

Magicka is definitely worth the price. Its really situational wether to go for the full package, the full package doesn't add too much SP content, so unless you plan on playing online or really like some of the DLC items, I'd say pass.

 

[Princess Skittles]

Really? The Indie Variety Pack was only $10 to begin with for all five games. I might have blown it by thinking that Steam would do another $5 pack during the sale.

I only wanted A.R.E.S. which was $10 on its own.
