Yeah, I've been looking into this a lot as well over the last few days, been driving me crazy.
You can see here the specific GOTY edition soundtrack which was "removed" but not actually removed apparently.

There's a chance, sure.

No daily or flash means it can happen. That said, buy it now.

Ok cool, I still have a ton of games to go through anyway. Also getting La-Mulana while the sale still has a few minutes left lol
If you're absolutely going to play it before the Winter Sale, you should buy it now. Otherwise, there's no reason not to wait.

Bought the indie royale bundle because they actually have steam games this time!
Dark Fall and Dark Fall 2 are now on Steam. There's a 25% early bird discount, making them $3.74 a piece or $5.99 for the Collection.

That, and Terraria was cheap when I bought it (I snagged it during a pricing error when it was 1.50~2 USD)
Yeah, I still have that. Don't have the digital artbook (which is DDE material, right?) either, so guess that's one more reason to get an upgrade.
See, I can't trust that list because Velvet Assassin is on there.

Wait, the sunburned faces is a bug? I thought you were talking about silly things in the game lol
I got Terraria for free by crafting coal in the 2011 Winter sale.
Valve should do something like that again.

They really should, but that would mean making sure SAM couldn't be used to get achievements.

Ahh yeah, those free games. Apparently Valve removed them because free accounts and stuff.
They should've make it so that you're required to have at least made a 5 USD purchase or own at least a 5 USD valued game to be legible for the freebies. Not sure if Steam could implement it though.
Thanks for the info Jase. There is some decent looking games in that thread, shame I have a lot of the ones I would be interested in. But I may get Retro/Grade, looks pretty fun.
Lol, the same thing came to my mind when I first saw it.

Thank you!
From a quick search it seems the DDE does include the artbook. Might want to confirm that with someone who owns it though.
Edit: maybe not

If they ever go back to doing stuff like that it'll be badge related so they can get money.
I know that's why quite a few people are holding off on crafting anything.
Righto, thanks for the replies. One more question though, I'm also mighty tempted to buy AC 4 on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GGUWLE6/?tag=neogaf0e-20
I'm not gonna do the same mistake as with SR4.... so is AC4 also region locked?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
You have 14 minutes - GO!

Out of all the games I bought, I'd recommend:
Deadly Premonition: Very interesting story, interesting characters, and nice gameplay. A nice open world horror game. It has a few flaws like the difficulty being a little too easy, and the driving. It's still well worth the $12 depending if you want to get it now or wait until the next sale for it to get lower. (5hrs in)
Max Payne 3: Has nice gunplay and has a nice difficulty to it. A very nice 3rd person shooter. The story's pretty interesting because of Max's dialogue, and his past, but the overall story after that is pretty meh. Also the graphics are amazing, I saw a sweat drop trickle from Max's face, megaton for me.(5hrs in)
Bioshock Infinite: I like the setting and the gunplay is really great. Also it's pretty fun to look for the collectibles. (beat it once over a friends house, but 5hrs in currently)
Dishonored: I'm not gonna lie, I hated this game at the beginning but warmed up to it. After I got the powers and found out that the game had side missions within levels, made the game start to shine to me. It's a very good stealth game and has many ways to encounter situations. The story is pretty meh, but the gameplay is the best. (3hrs in)
I haven't beaten any of these, but I just wanted to recommend the ones I'm enjoying the most. I bought over 8 games and these 4 stood out for me. So if any of these go on sale, look into them.

Spelunky
Outlast
Rogue Legacy
Electronic Super Joy
Not bad, and still have funds for the Christmas sale.

thank you for sonic torture 2, i didn't even know it was on steam.
Hm. Well, in any case, I'll probably hold off on the scrambled DLCs until there's a new "Upgrade to DDE-Containing Edition" edition. Or just cut my losses and watch the "Making of" videos on youtube.

So yeah I launched Toki Tori which was included in Two Tribes Pack, one of my purchases in this sale. At first I was really worried that I wouldn't like it as I've seen the facts what it means. But fortunately the puzzles are quite neat and overall the game is an enjoyable indie so I think I can say I belong in the group "people who like Toki Tori". It's on sale now for 44 cents by the way. Destined to be in a bundle (and IIRC it also has been in one) too though.
I completed first 12 levels of Toki Tori and might do another 12 if my friends are late for our Sanctum 2 session. That's a great game btw, Sanctum 2, buy it for some fun co-op action. I like how the game looks too.

Oh man, Broken Sword 5 tomorrow. http://store.steampowered.com/app/262940/
I didn't even know Sacrifice was on Steam, so when I saw your post I rushed to Steam to buy the game, then at the last moment I remembered I already have the game on GOG. Wallet has been spared.
