I remember telling somebody towards the end of 2011 that I'd probably spend more on GOG in 2012 than Steam as I owned just about everything I actually wanted. Then the Summer Sale happened and a switch was flicked.

In the history books, they will call this moment The Singularity.
The GOTY was only $3.20!? Glitch?

Yes, found it, the mails will come in January.
Yep, 10 minute price error.
I bought it for Origin, it was 80% off on Amazon for the complete pack.
Bought:
Outlast
Wasteland
Wizardry 6, 7 & 8
Gone Home
Sanctum 1 & 2
Final Fantasy VII
Poker Night 1 & 2
Audiosurf
The Stanley Parable
Shadow Warrior
Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures
And that's been it. I may get Blood of the Werewolf before the end or just wait until the Winter Sale. Amnesia A Machine For Pigs I'll wait on as well. Unless something changes, Valdis Story and Risk Of Rain will have to wait as well. Almost bit on Natural Selection II and Guns of Icarus Online until I realized I wouldn't ever play them.

So I bought Enclave because I was promised glorious ass, why am I playing with this medieval Mad Max?
If you want, you could find my many posts in steam threads (after summer sale) how I'm not buying anything till winter sale. In that time, including this sale, my library increased by more than 100 games (><)
I blame Jasec and Xelios, they show very bad example of restrain.
just kidding, you are good people

I keep getting a glitch in Skyrim when in first-person view: flashing yellow light when I'm close to fire. It doesn't bother me that much because weirdly I like playing Skyrim in third-person view. I googled that it is related to anti-aliasing and it can be fixed by changing the AA to application controlled or something. I have a Radeon graphics card, where can I change the settings for it? Do I need to install an application?
...I'm doomed.

Papers, Please - $4.99
That's it. I was expecting, since this was the first big Steam sale since I got my "gaming rig", that I would have loaded up on games, but nothing was really jumping out at me. I was hoping for a huge DmC sale, but most of the games I wanted I found elsewhere (ie. Humble Store).

I'm so bummed that the one game I wanted - Gone Home - I was unable to see the sales while it was up for $5. Damnit, damnit, damnit.
Edit: damage
Fallout: New Vegas GOTY
Skyrim: Dragonborn
Civilization V: Brave New World
Euro Truck Simulator 2 (already in love)
Counter Strike: Global Offensive

There's a pretty nice demo that features the start plus 3/4 boss battles (not on Steam though) if you want to give the game a try. Just search for the Valdis thread that was made, there should be a link to the demo in there.
Judging from the demo, the game seems really good. It looks nice, it's fast and responsive and kicking ass feels great.
I bought it today and the game proper feels even better than the demo.
That's a good point.
Valve has created quite the competitive platform on the PC, you will find that most of your pickups will probably be away from steam.
Enslaved for that price, yay or nay? I was really hoping for a 50% deal on Steam 
Assassins Creed 4 is 50% on Amazon, I think that's its lowest price yet.
Crysis 3 was ~70% off some days ago also on Amazon, but looks like it's back to its regular price, I'd wait If I were you.

wait for the Winter Seal and that'll all change.
Haha, come to think of it, I've been meaning to play through Singularity again on the PC. Thanks for the reminder!
It's not a bad thing.
Oh ok. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on the $15 price point. Still got some Wii U & 3DS games to burn through before I get into PC gaming again.
If there is to be another set of sale Dailies then it wouldn't end until the fourth, which would be at odds with the banner image. Valve simply didn't update the phrasing used with the countdown timers to reflect the fact that the sale is ending coincident with today's store update.
Edit: Plus, if you click through to any of the non-featured deals, you'll see this:
Edit edit: To clarify, the sale ending doesn't necessarily preclude an encore. See: The 2012 Winter Sale.
Holding out until January in hope that they will get the games you want for the promotion is kind of risky though.

Definitely. It will still be nice to have a bunch of coupons to use on their new indie store.

What I bought comes to:
Skyrim Legendary: $20.39
Gone Home: $4.99
Max Payne 3: $6.99
Contagion: $3.74
Dishonored GOTY: $13.59
Brutal Legend and Dust Elysian Tail: $6.23
Total: $55.93
Maybe slightly more than I was planning to spend but there was a time when I would pay $60 for one game. 7 games for $56 isn't too bad.

I'm hoping for some good picks on the January coupon sale.
I'm not going to hold out for the selection during the winter sale but if there's something I want and the coupon adds a good discount I'll grab it. Last Year I grabbed Hotline Miami 2 since at that time 4.99 was the cheapest it had been. So glad I grabbed that game.

What was last night flash deals? There was a big blackout here, and I just went to bed after a while.
I only got Final Fantasy VII, Dishonored GOTY (dat price error) for the Brigmore Witches DLC, and Far Cry 3 (been eyeing it for a while and I'll start it now that I'm done with JC2).
The summer sale was insane for me, so I didn't buy a lot this time because I own most of what was at the price of a candy bar, and I already had all that got a decent discount and would fit in my "will be played soon enough" criteria. I almost nabbed Skyrim but I try to stick to one open world game at a time. Decided to skip on a few indies too (Rogue Legacy, Dust, Papers Please and Gunpoint), I'm not in a hurry and there's always the next sale/bundle for those.
edit: got the current Indiegala bundle and Papo & Yo for $1 on Indiegamestand but those don't count.

Torchlight II
Papo & Yo
Sword of the Stars: The Pit
Commandos 3 - Destination Berlin
Hammerwatch
Divekick
Total: 13,50, that's 2,25 per game.
Acceptable.
Max Payne 3 and Dark Souls were real tempting, but common sense prevailed for Max Payne and I still have some hope Dark Souls will get patched to remove GFWL (and thus become available for family sharing).

And you just reminded me of this game. But damn, I looked it up on Steam and the ESRB is still $30. Guess I'm not replaying it.

I grabbed more this Autumn sale than I did the summer sale.
Everything during the summer sale I already had that I wanted (I wasn't patient).
Regardless here's my haul between steam and Amazon
Enslaved
Ridge Racer Unbounded
Star Trek
Shadow Warrior
Castlevania
Dust: An Elysian Tale
AVGN Adventures
Prototype 2
(These are all of the top of my head so I might have missed one)
We rate games by price now lol.

Well glad I waited for AVGN. Could be even better, but not gonna complain.
Got a decent chunk of my wishlist, with pretty minimal monetary hit:
Rogue Legacy ($5.09)
Spelunky ($3.74)
Dust: An Elysian Tail (3.74)
CS:GO ($3.74) - Didn't really go in looking for this, but for that price I figured why not. I grew up with the original CS mod, so maybe nostalgia played a bit of a factor too.
Total: $16.31 - seems like pretty good value for 4 well respected games. It also seems to show that I'm starting to prefer small budget over big budget titles these days.
