Now we get to play the games we impulsively bought, and cry at how horrible they are.Diablohead said:

Managed to get Far Cry 2 into my cart just before Steam broke at the end of the sale. Debating wether to pull the trigger on it....
Edit: Went back to full price, oh well probably for the best :lol
Not really it's one of the newest games on there and judging by the fact it was still in the top 5 most of the sale people were buying it at full price.

Alot of the deals are still the same. I'm not sure whether this is just a delay or if only the daily deals have died and everything else will stay for the rest of the day.NinjaFridge said:

That's very easy to believe. There's a thing you may have heard of called Activision, and they like money too much to see that sales = even more money.sk3tch said:

So did anyone getting one of the gaming packs available wind up getting more games from that publisher than what was listed in the pack?
I bought that Iwin pack and winded up getting an additional 3 games that weren't listed in the pack.

So frustrating!! I bought so many great games but the one i wanted to play most was left4dead2! I joined in on one of the 4 packs with JAK. Everything seemed fine, he sent me it as a gift, it showed up in my games list. But when I would try click the gift activation button nothing would happen??? Then I tried the email activation, and it just takes me to the steam gift page and nothing happens. So I decided to restart my computer to see if that fixed it and now the game just doesnt even show up in my games list. Jak is trying to figure out whats going on also.
Are they pretty bad about getting back to people with questions on their technical support. I guess its only been a day and a half. But hopefully its a easy fix and they get back to me.

I feel like I have given enough money to Steam to fund the space program of putting a man back on the moon.

Srsly, I think that sale probably just funded a next game from quite a few indie devs.

Trust me, after a fresh format with TinyXP and NetBook mode on teh absolute lowest setting with teh minimum amount of programs running in the background - . . . I still can't play Torchlight. :-(
Actually, it runs, but if there are more than 2 enemies one screen at once my framerate drops to basically nothing. Or if any effects start showing up.
It's truly sad.

I'm hoping they wait a while longer than that even, I could use a month to recover
but watch there be a mid-week deal tomorrow

It's funny because after last year's sale I decided to put aside some cash during the year preparing for this sale. I was ready to drop a good amount first day and be done. Then they decided to pull this daily deal business on us and I've spent the past week obsessed with refreshing this thread and the Steam home page. Valve robbed me of my holiday. :lol

Finally checking out some of these games, Outrun 2006 is incredible. On my medium grade laptop (Core 2, GT130M) I'm running 1920x1080 smoothly and playing with a 360 controller. While some of the menu assets and graphics are still low-res, it's looks awesome overall and a huge improvement over my Xbox versions of OR2 and 2006.
