If you're going to be out of your home country you should contact Steam support to make sure your account can buy games while out of that region. Or something.

I shall consider spending some days in Russia for one of these Steam sales. Too bad we do not know the dates in advance.

Because it allows me to pay for steam games with cash.


Quick purchases
Limit spending
Avoid credit card cutting off due to multiple transactions
Allows for other methods of payment (gamestop trade ins, cash, check etc.)

Even when the Steam store is hammered during the first hour or so of a sale you can usually still get through with Steam wallet.

Also don't forget - fluctuation of foreign exchange.

That's too bad. If I can make you happy with either Warlock or the Magicka Collection, let me know. Got codes for those two left.

Have you been putting it off this long because you don't want to experience the best FPS this gen in Episode Two and then endure the long, tortuous wait for Half-Life 3?

This is my first steam sales celebrating my return to PC gaming (a place where shitty ports of orange box do not exist).

Haven't played a Total War game yet, but I own Shogun 2. Considering getting the expansion for that price on Amazon.....................................

Dunno when I'll get to it though, so might wait.

Funny anecdote from cheapassgamer on Steam sale thread. I can relate to poster C.

Poster A: Why don't you guys play some of your backlog while you wait instead of whining and complaining.

Poster B: That's the most logical post I've read here all week.

Poster C (winner): I don't have time to play my 30 game backlog, I only have time to buy more cheap games.

This kind of thoughts (Buy&NeverPlay) it because it were reserved for Steam sales only. A new era has just started...

Now just gotta know which of those are Steam-keys. I don't really have a preference either way but I know a lot of people do.

It made sense to me right away but I worried it'd make some of the less stable individuals around these parts think that the Steam sale itself had started, hahaha.

:LOL. Figured people would be able to figure it out but yeah don't want those people waiting for the Steam sale having a heart attack haha.
 
I'll probably get Binary Domain from that amazon sale, I'm on the fence for Max Payne and Spec Ops they both look good but price is still a bit high, feel like I'll be able to get them cheaper soon enough

It's steamworks.

Also regarding what's going to be steam keys, Tony said this the sale thread.


Working on it, along with the rest of the responses, stay tuned. I'll be dark for the next hour or so while i set stuff up and respond.

Remember to help a brother out and spread the word :)...or don't and just continue to enjoy the sales!

Someone should post that list on the Steam forums and watch the fireworks etc.

Apparently Tony was chewed out and had to bolt after posting in the Steam forums based on what I've read in the CAG thread :lol.

SPUF are the worst. Both Valve/Steam fanboys and trolls. Most of the threads are unbearable.

Guessing that most of those (except EA?) deals are gonna be Steam keys.

Almost all of the THQ stuff will be SW, lots of the SEGA games as well but EA stuff will be at most "Originworks".

Even I can't work up the enthusiasm to buy Space Ark. Someone attempt to sell me on it.

Only works in small window, someone said. Doesnt that sound great?

Not enough enthusiasm?
