Yes, tomorrow!

Spoiler

I hope.

 

[Wok]

You're right. It's strange that they have two packs, Rayman isn't showing as unavailable in any countries either so it can't be for that.

I bet Rayman will be the best daily deal tomorrow.

 

[Dias Mendes]

Soooooo does everyone still say tomorrow or what's the consensus?

There are strong indications that it is tomorrow, and tomorrow is not going to have people committing suicide

 

[scorpscarx]

It says no where that the sale will be focused around daily sales anywhere. I know how the sales work I've been on steam for 9 years I'm just throwing that out there.

They could mix it up this year and be like fuck it, the steam summer sale DAY DEAL, all days=1 day all discounts stay epic for the entirety.

 

[Alo81]

Where did you see that THPS is using Steamworks?

Watch the video, at the end there's a Steam logo.

That could very well be the case, for sure, but I think the current formula works well and they're not likely to mess with it, because it provides the best balance of exposure for everything versus extra exposure for key titles.

But it's Valve, for all we know the sale could be that you have to solve Portal puzzles to unlock Toki Tori levels which you finish to get 75% off Bad Rats coupons.

 

[Wok]

Cubemen is also apparently on sale
[...]
Sale ends June 28th

I still can't believe that the cubemen developer leaked the real date

Poor dude from Cubemen
Never forget how, in his acts of innocence, he gave us a light of hope!

I won't forget you, Cubeman. If you had not existed, Internet would have gone crazy for two weeks.

Hum. It went crazy. It would have been crazier for sure.

Summer time... vacation time. Tomorrow 10 a.m. PST.

Ubi pack added to registry:

Beyond Good and Evil
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction
Driver San Francisco
From Dust
F1 2010
Might and Magic Heroes VI
Assassin's Creed Revelations
Rayman Origins

I don't think I've ever seen a more schizophrenic pack. It's almost good-shit-good-shit in exact order.

 

[Milamber]

It sure was a long 2 weeks. I'm glad we finally made it.

Guys in your experience, how much could this bundle cost?

 

[dominuece]

I went swimming for five hours today. Now, I'm about to eat a huge seafood dinner. If I'm lucky, this combo will put me in a deep sleep. When I wake up, magic will happen.

I agree they work well, and give people a chance to rest from day to day, while also peaking interest and exposure by giving incentive to revisit every day.

It's neat how creative they get with it.

 

[Milamber]

Wonder if the Summer Sale theme is getting a bunch of camp scout badges of achievements that can be raffled at camp's end?

I bet the theme will be London 2012, and collecting medals (i.e. achievements).

 

[Cade]

That'd be pretty clever.

 

[Megasoum]

Oh FUCK YEAHHHH Tony Hawk on PC!! I was about to dust off my old 360 but nooopee! It's gonna stay unplugged now. Best news of the day.

 

[nexen]

Shit. Still no Steam sale.
Looks like the summer sale isn't going to happen. So bummed.
Well, looks like I'm out until x-mas then. Cya for the winter sale!

 

[Visualante2]

I sure as hell ain't getting suckered into their mind games this sale.

It's tomorrow man.

Tony I usually don't say this for anybody I haven't met face to face, but since you are seriously one of the coolest guys on here I will. I love you man!

 

[Dias Mendes]

It's tomorrow man.

Nothing is confirmed to be tomorrow, but probably it is.

 

[Gilgamesh]

More like good-ok-good-ok.

 

[hlhbk]

I know this is off topic, but not sure where to put this. I am reading and apparently if you want the digital deluxe edition of Assassins Creed III you have to order it off of ubishop.com. Anyone ever order from them?

 

[rybrad]

Maybe they will call it the Good Shit Bundle.

 

[Prophet Steve]

So, it's now 12 July here, hype mode engaged.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Hmm, with this I can narrow it down where you live.

You will pay if there is no sale.

 

[Wok]

Somewhere between Europe and Japan?

AHH, I KNEW it! It's "uplayworks"!

 

[feel]

hype!

 

[iNvid02]

usually steam gets an edition with preorder bonuses, i'd wait if you want to get it on steam.

ubishop is ok, although as they are the publisher the shop is overpriced

plus you can redownload/manage games via the uplay client now, so if you can get the edition you are after cheaper somewhere else do that, the key will bind to your account

 

[Glass Rebel]

"It is now 12 July here..."

DUN DUN DUUUN

 

[mtosh]

Steam?

Steam.

Steam?

 

[Fantastical]

They had to wait until I'm on vacation to do this thing didn't they?

 

[1-D_FTW]

Started getting sucked into the Race 07 and GTR: Evolution demos. I need this sale to start pronto so I can start playing the full games (No chance they'll be a daily, but they should be part of the catalog sale at 50 - 75 off). These have suddenly jumped to the top of my want list.

 

[Joe Molotov]

I know this is off topic, but not sure where to put this. I am reading and apparently if you want the digital deluxe edition of Assassins Creed III you have to order it off of ubishop.com. Anyone ever order from them?

Well, I guess I don't want it then.

 

[Enco]

Gonna be out till 6pm (UK time) so I'll be home just in time (probably 10 mins late).

Can't. Wait.

 

[Wok]

"It is now 12 July here..."

DUN DUN DUUUN

UTC+1 with daylight saving making it UTC+2, or UTC+2 without daylight saving. Still a big area, but I understand what you mean.

 

[shintoki]

Tony Hawk coming to PC is most excellent.

 

[Glass Rebel]

The sale will be tomorrow anyway so no reason for him/her to worry

Tony Hawk coming to PC is most excellent.

Certainly not, no Guerilla Radio and no Spiderman.

That is very very tempting....

 

[Snuggles]

I don't think I've ever seen a more schizophrenic pack. It's almost good-shit-good-shit in exact order.

I hope you're not calling Rayman shit. I mean, in all likelihood you haven't even played it, but still, you would be dead wrong because that game owns. I have it on Vita but I might double dip just to have it on Steam.

From what I noticed in previous sales, you get to know the deals a few minutes before the official start of the sales. Then Steam goes down for two or three hours, due to a massive incoming traffic. Finally, everything is working fine.

That's why I load some money in my Steam wallet. If there is a good deal, I might get it before Steam goes down.

 

[Nabs]

Not after I read the actual player reviews.

Yea you can always find stuff a few mins before and you gotta go fast.

Probably wont be down for hours but I can see it screwing up for a while.

 

[Fox318]

I enjoyed Sniper: Ghost Warrior and the demo for Sniper : V2 was pretty cool.

 

[Kerub]

Is it too much to hope for that some Capcom games get decent discounts?

I got a craving for Lost Planet.

Nah I would switch F1 and M&M and Rayman with AC to even out the list. AC isn't completely awful either. It's more like I've played the same game 3 times in a row and I'm so tired of it it's kind of shitty by now.

Yeah, I was big on the first two AC games but halfway through Brotherhood I got totally burnt out. I might check out 3 but I wouldn't bother with Revelations at pretty much any price.

 

[Elginer]

We're almost there... almost there...

 

[Glass Rebel]

Assassin's Creed is a weird franchise for me.

I enjoyed AC1 somewhat, loved AC2 but haven't touched either BroHo nor Revelaitons yet and while AC3 looks extremely good it's reached the point of oversaturation for me because of the spin-offs and additional media. I'd be completely fine with just the mainline entries but my mild OCD makes it hard to enjoy a series when I know that there's a shitton more of content that I'll never play/see/read. Especially when most is just utter crap.

Weirdly enough, I don't have this problem with the Warhammer 40k stuff.
