I know in all probability the sales aren't starting today, but that doesn't stop me getting excited every time I see this thread near the top.

I'm ready!

Edit: I'm hoping for a big discount on Rage and Civ 5

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

3.5 hours to a major disappointment am i rite?

 

[Sidewinder]

Probably safe to buy L.A. Noire today right? RIGHT?!?!

Lol I'm asking myself the same question.

 

[paranoidfortean]

3.5 hours to a major disappointment am i rite?

As long as there is an acceptable daily deal, I won't be destroyed.

 

[Mr_eX]

I'm hoping Max Payne 3, Spec Ops The Line, Kingdoms of Amalur and Arkham City DLC for 20-75% off

 

[marrec]

TeamNegative will be ready with bowls for all those delicious tears.

Bowls are not an efficient way to collect tears.

I've read on some blog that the traditional summer sale is cancelled. Instead Valve is teaming up with several devs and publishers to give the community free games including Half-Life: Episode 3, Shenmue 1+2+3 Collection, Crysis 1: Part 2, Final Fantasy VII Remake (PC exclusive) among others.


But only if you have Bad Rats on your account.

Amazon are supposed to be doing 50% off deals on Max Payne 3 and Spec Ops in the next few days.

YES! I knew having Bad Rats on my account would be good for something!

 

[beanman25]

Looking to spend some money!


Haven't bought a title in a while in anticipation for the sales.

 

[Petrie]

Have about $400 sitting in my paypal at the ready, thanks to Diablo 3. Steam sale brought to me by Blizzard!

 

[PaulLFC]

Does anyone have a link to that online site that showed the registry entries?

Hmm... I might have to buy this "Diabler Three" game.

Figures. Should have known that Valve can't get the third of anything right, not even Summer Sale 3.

 

[Petrie]

It's great fo amassing paypal funds!

 

[Mikor]

I notice the Daily Sale for LA Noire is marked as expiring at 4 pm Pacific. Guess they're starting a bit late this year? I don't recall that as being the normal time sales are cycled through.

Edit: Wrong link. I know the one you're talking about, though.

Edit 2: This one.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

OH NO

It's the third Summersale

Dreams and hopes are out of the window now.

 

[Nabs]

It sounds like some of you guys still think it's coming today. I don't know how this thread will survive another 2 weeks.

Edit: I'll be way late on this I'm sure, But Stardock and 1C "Summer 2012" packs are in the registry. Sale time

 

[Wizman23]

If it doesn't start today I think I will end up buying one of my big-ticket games. Probably Assassin's Creed.

This is exactly why the sale won't be today. Valve knows everyone is waiting for this with wallets open ready to spend. By not announcing it today they are going to get people paying full price for games just because they want to buy something.

 

[DSmalls84]

As far as as gearing is concerned which class is the cheapest to equip (non glass cannon) for inferno? Demon Hunter? Seems like the price on solid weapons is pretty low for them?

 

[FtHTiny]

That´s exactly what i´m looking for aswell.

I have a feeling it'll be today, or if it's not, it will be sometime in the next week. Some of the latest registry entries:

1C Collection Pack - Summer 2012
1C Collection Pack - Summer 2012 LV
Stardock Collection Pack - Summer 2012

 

[Kelegacy]

It wont. Out of anger the thread will turn into an Origin sale thread and Steam will be boycotted. You hear that Valve?

There's no sale today according to our buddy Space Drake. http://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/comment/23546589#Comment_23546589

It'll be ok guys. Trust me.

This is why they won't announce it ahead of time. This is not evidence for why it won't be today.

I can't wait for ~11 am central time. This thread is going to get cray.

 

[Bradach]

I'll dive on any / all of the following deals;

Rage
Shogun 2 Total War
Syndicate
Star wars the force unleashed 2
Hunted demons forge
Fable III
Kingdoms of amalur: reckoning
Wolfeinstein
Singularity
Darkness 2
Space Marine

 

[Kingbrave]

Gamestop's PC download (Impulse) has Skyrim for 40.19...think it could go lower on the Steam sale?

Syndicate's not on steam. Amazon said yesterday they're close to getting it for $15 when their sale kicks off Sunday though.

[Rawket Lawnchair]

To get or to not get Avernum today (in the next 3 hours)?

Too true.

 

[Deleted member 10571]

Of course it will come today. Steeeeaaaaam

 

[Volcynika]

Who's this Space Drake fella and why should I trust him?

He is part of the company that brought over Recettear, Chantelise, and Fortune Summoners.

 

[JaseC]

Well, at $3.39, it's not going to get much cheaper.

 

[Cheddahz]

I just want the Ys games and the Civ V expansion to go on sale, I would be one happy guy

 

[echoshifting]

Let's do this.

 

[Kelegacy]

Well I was going to buy Recettar in the summer sale but if he wants to kill my dreams I will ban his games instead!

 

[Spazo]

I have no patience for his...

today plz !!

 

[kamspy]

I just heard no sale today from the only person I really know who works on a game available on Steam. Take that with a mountain of salt. He didn't hear "no", he just didn't hear "yes".

 

[Fuzzy]

If it doesn't start today then talking about the Summer Sale should be banned until it starts. It's the only way.

 

[haikira]

This is all starting to remind me of that South Park episode, when Walmart comes to their town. I don't really have any games on steam, i'm looking at buying. But i need this sale.
