Didn't own HL: Source yet.
what

 

[Dinosaur Tamer]

The Half-Life one says 4pm, though. I am confused.

 

[legacyzero]

Midweek ends at 10 am



Yes

Same question, but for HL2, and Episode 1 and 2. Worth it?

OOOOOooooohh interesting...

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

I have $11. I am not ready for a miracle.

$2 for Episode 2, should I bite?

Absolutely.

 

[Turfster]

Shit, Valve are trolling us hard!
The NFS midweek ends at 10am, but the HL one... ends at 4pm.
I'm confused now!

 

[Dawg]

I was really hoping for a card game in the Midweek Madness. I wanted to craft one more mystery card before things get crazy on Thursday.

Well, HL2 is a card game but you probably already have/played it.

 

[Slyjss]

OH THEE I AM READY FOR A MIRACLE

 

[JustinBB7]

My heart skipped a beat when I saw a big HALF-LIFE on the store page. Then I realized it was just midweek deal..

 

[Clever Pun]

Well, HL2 is a card game but you probably already have/played it.

Yeah, already used all my HL2 cards. I know we'll get some on Thursday, but I was ready to pull the trigger on a card game today if I saw one on sale.

 

[More_Badass]

Shit, Valve are trolling us hard!
The NFS midweek ends at 10am, but the HL one... ends at 4pm.
I'm confused now!

Lead up to a HL3 reveal?

 

[Dawg]

I know the feeling

I could have SWORN it said 10am just a second ago

 

[reddmyst]

I hope super meat boy and fez goes on sale.

 

[Digoman]

Yeah but I'm never going to play multiplayer...only reason I'd wait for the Orange Box is for Portal 1.

But then again, 6.47 for the Half Life games...and I'd have $31.50 left for the Sale. Ugh, must make a choice

What? you are one of the 5 people that don't have Portal 1?

If you want, I have a copy in my inventory.

In any case, all of Valve games are usually heavily discounted on the sale.

 

[YianGaruga]

I hope super meat boy and fez goes on sale.

Everything goes on sale.
All the games.

 

[Momentary]

Yes, summersale, finally.

Buy list:
Mortal Kombat
Quake 2
DmC
Endless Space
Crysis
Metal Gear Rising!?

I'll be content with just those.

Bought HL2 Episodes with card money. Haven't even finished HL2 yet

What makes you say MGR? Is there something new happening that I haven't heard of since the PC announcement?

 

[ashecitism]

yeah, it's about time I put the Half-Lifes into my library.

 

[Anustart]

So I'm a noob with steam sales. What's the deal with mystery cards? Have items been used in sales in the past? How?

 

[derExperte]

I could have SWORN it said 10am just a second ago

It says "Offer ends 12 July" while NfS is at 47:37:43. So the HL sale runs longer. Confusing and exciting at the same time.

 

[Overdoziz]

Same question, but for HL2, and Episode 1 and 2. Worth it?

Easily worth it at launch price. Getting it for half a dozen dollars is a steal.

 

[Darkroronoa]

Half life 2 is a must buy at that price,i mean not only its an amazing game but you can even get back some (almost half if not more) of the money from cards!

I am one of the "few" that dont have the original half life,its 2e,should i buy just the half life or pay 3e for the bundle with the xpacs?

 

[Freezard]

Hmm NFS Hot Pursuit is pretty cheap. How is it? Is it anything like Most Wanted (2005) or is it more simulator nowadays?

 

[More_Badass]

What? you are one of the 5 people that don't have Portal 1?

If you want, I have a copy in my inventory.

Yeah, never played the original. Have Portal 2 on PS3 though, awesome game and awesome co-op

 

[derExperte]

The best NfS since old MW and better than new MW. Not realistic in any way but it's the good kind of arcadey.

 

[Anustart]

Are prices in the market off or something? Like I browse the cards, and HL2 cards all say "Starting at .21 cents"

Are these prices not accurate? I wish I could sell stuff :/ In 30 days it all changes!

 

[YianGaruga]

Don't know if anyone cares with all the ssale hype, but Gateways is $2.50 through the Humble Store as well

http://www.smudgedcat.com/gateways.htm

From the guy(s?) who made Adventures of Shuggy.

 

[73V3N]

I wanna play Portal 1 and 2 and everything from the Half-Life series, should I just wait for the "Valve Complete Pack" to be on sale?

 

[YianGaruga]

Yes.

 

[yellow submarine]

*pokes head in* Did someone say HL3?

 

[Darkroronoa]

they start at 0.29e at my market with different price in each one

 

[Divius]

I have 89 friends on steam, only 54 have HL2.

wtf

 

[More_Badass]

So are HL2 and the Episodes worth it at $6.50? Like I said, I'm never going to touch MP. And the other reason I wanted the Orange Box is because I wanted to do that awesome Portal Gun in HL2 mod.

So if TOB is discounted 75%, that's $5. But I'm never going to touch TF2
And GMod would be discounted during the Sale right?

 

[DTKT]

That is what the market values them at. HL2 sold a lot of copies and was on sold for next to nothing all the time. So, you have a lot of cards on the market. Games that have a smaller playerbase, like Crusader Kings II, will see cards valued between .40 and .50 cents.

 

[GAMERG0D]

The best part about the Summer sale is watching people go crazy over deals on games they'll never play.

Spoiler

Kidding... I won't be buying anything in this sale. OK maybe a little...just for the Summer sale badge

 

[Sini]

Is there a chance that Burnout Paradise will go lower than 4.49€ on the summer sale?

"Are three of the most critically acclaimed PC games worth the price of a meal"

Nah, skip em

 

[Razorskin]

*pokes head in* Did someone say HL3?

We were talking about Ricochet 2

 

[ThaiGrocer]

This Thursday: http://gaben.tv/

I swear, I saw Gabe wink at me.

Cmon do you really need to ask

Yes.

Thanks for the answer.

When I only have $38, every purchase is a debate

HL2 and the episodes are worth more than your soul.

A Garrys Mod will most definitely get a nice steep discount during the sale.

I'm on the same boat. Single player only, what should I buy? Half-life 2, Episode one and two, and what else?

 

[Cydonian__Knight]

Haha it figures that I'm leaving for a three week vacation on the day the summer sale starts.

 

[Divius]

You have bad friends.

Most of them are GAFfers ;_;

Sell your body for more money.
