I can't get Steam to come up for me at the moment, but I saw a pack with both Batman games +DLC + Other Games for £40. Good deal.

 

[TGMIII]

I got 50% off a valve game (I already own them all) and 75% off total war Napoleon : /

Also who wants to do a bunch of heros 4-pack?

 

[btkadams]

Individual games can be daily deals regardless if they are in a pack or not.

Packs like publisher packs last the entire sale.

ok sounds good. thanks! i guess i'll wait for the last day of the sale since those valve games will be 50% off regardless of being in a daily deal.

 

[Peagles]

Can anyone tell me what the third game across from the left at the top is, in the daily deals image? It's not available in my region and I'm just curious.

Anyone?

 

[Tenck]

So do you get one coupon per unlocked achievement?

Coal and even more Coal.

 

[rac]

Dead Island is all sorts of messed up. it's showing $10.19 for the game with the guide, $20.38 for a 4 pack and $26.79 for the game itself.

It doesn't let you buy it at 10$. Believe me, I tried.

Packs like publisher packs last the entire sale.

In the summer sale, I bought halfe life complete for 9.99.- as a daily deal. I guess Half Life 2 was the daily deal (on the front page) but the complete was also -75% off only on that day.

 

[kharma45]

Gah, 50% off any Valve title I own dem all

 

[kennah]

ok sounds good. thanks! i guess i'll wait for the last day of the sale since those valve games will be 50% off regardless of being in a daily deal.

*sniff* they learn so fast! That's exactly the way to do it!

 

[dave is ok]

So do you get one coupon per unlocked achievement?

You get a coupon, a game or coal

 

[Chairhome]

I can make out most of the games in the banner, but can somebody tell me what some of them are? I can't figure out the top middle two games, and second one in the right column and the bottom right one. Can't check at work. Thanks in advance.

 

[DarkSoul520]

Will probably bite on Orcs Must Die!.
I don't think 3.74 is going to break the bank for me.

EDIT: Also, I'm assuming everyone is having trouble accessing their inventories.

 

[Tenck]

Anyone?

Looks like Singularity.

 

[Exile550]

I never seen Steam so buggy. They are getting hammered!

 

[Emerson]

Bunch of Heroes or Orcs Must Die?

 

[I H8 Memes]

That's just the number of users, not the number of lumps of coal.

Still, whoever wins will be like...

Winner: "I won a game on Steam"
Friend: "Cool! Which one?"
Winner:

Brings up an interesting question. When 1-D_ftw won 10 games from his wishlist he got an individual email for all 10 games. Wonder how they handle it when it's every game on steam

 

[Labadal]

Servers are getting hammered. No point in even trying to enter the store for me.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Bunch of Heroes or Orcs Must Die?

Without knowing anything about Bunch of Heroes, I say Orcs Must Die!

It's a really fun game.

 

[NewFresh]

Bunch of Heroes or Orcs Must Die?

Orcs

 

[Sportbilly]

I'll never get this one

Hehe. Nice one.

 

[Javaman]

DOHHHHhhh

 

[Giran]

So whether you receive a gift or not is based on luck unless you craft it, and if you actually do get one by chance, it again depends on luck what you get as a gift.

I know complaining about free stuff isn't classy but I hate this system. I have terrible luck and I'm going to be deadly jealous of the people who get games that I wanted.

 

[GHG]

You get a coupon, a game or coal

Ah ok cool. And what the hell does one do with coal?

 

[rossonero]

Anyone?

I think you mean Singularity?

 

[Insured]

Spent like 100 euros on steam sale last year; this year I'm not buying a damn thing. I still have games I have yet to play from the last sale!

 

[Deadstar]

Imagine downloading every game on steam at the same time.

Anyone like the Pendulo games? I used to love the old Lucas Arts adventure games.

 

[Sysgen]

Oh Sh*t it's here.

 

[RoadHazard]

So, if I'm getting this right, you want coals, right? Even though they're worthless on their own, they're your entry tickets to the big draw?

 

[mrgone]

This is kind of depressing - most indie games in my wishlist don't have individual discounts at all, but most of them are in the $20 bundles. These indie bundles are a great deal if you don't have many of the games already, but right now they're killing the sale for the majority of stuff I wanted to buy. Hopefully it's just that some discounts havn't been applied yet.

 

[Mandoric]

GAF-Valve merger incoming?

 

[snoopeasystreet]

Getting 503s when browsing steam? when did it become GAF?

 

[Vamphuntr]

Ah ok cool. And what the hell does one do with coal?

Trade it or use it as an entry in the Grand Giveaway (all games on Steam).

 

[Vanillalite]

Still can't get my gift up. I might just check back later when shit has calmed down.

 

[dave is ok]

Ah ok cool. And what the hell does one do with coal?

Turn 7 in for a random game, or keep them for entries into the wishlist giveaway on Jan 2.

 

[Lord British]

If anyone managed to get the Dead Island 4 pack at the glitch price, I'm interested in buying a copy. Can pay Paypal straight up.

 

[cicero]

Dead Island is all sorts of messed up. it's showing $10.19 for the game with the guide, $20.38 for a 4 pack and $26.79 for the game itself.

I spent like 40 minutes trying to glitch a purchase. Never went through.

 

[C_H_T]

If anyone managed to get the Dead Island 4 pack at the glitch price, I'm interested in buying a copy. Can pay Paypal straight up.

I'm also interested.

 

[dream]

I think I want RAGE but only at a fair price.

Fair being $7.50 or less.

 

[Hakkuei]

I can make out most of the games in the banner, but can somebody tell me what some of them are? I can't figure out the top middle two games, and second one in the right column and the bottom right one. Can't check at work. Thanks in advance.

Rift, Singularity, Bunch of Heroes and Max Payne 1/2

 

[syllogism]

So, if I'm getting this right, you want coals, right? Even though they're worthless on their own, they're your entry tickets to the big draw?

They are worthless because the odds of actually winning are too miniscule even if you hoard them

 

[wackojackosnose]

Anyone know the US$ price of Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition 4 pack?

I know the UK price is £37.48 for the 4 pack (£9.37 each ~$15) and ~£12.49 (~$20) for a single copy, so I'm trying to gauge whether I should just pick up a 4 pack myself or hope a US gaffer will make a bundle.

 

[yamo]

Urghh.... what did they do to the interface? Considering how slow steam is right now and the ammount of "Error 503" messages I get now it will take me forever just to check what games are on deal and how much they cost.

 

[Scythian]

Luckily, download speeds are still OK, half an hour until Dead Island finishes downloading, that'll keep me busy until Steam calms down.

 

[I H8 Memes]

what the F i want to buy portal 2 but when i go to the page its $14.99! what happened to $7.49

It's 7.50 for me so wait for it to fix itself

Also, check the free gift from the gift pile before you buy anything. I got 50% off any valve game.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

They are worthless because the odds of actually winning are too miniscule even if you hoard them

Best is to just keep one and spend the rest.

 

[Willy Wanka]

The store is dead for me.

 

[Volcynika]

Hm, have a coupon for Men of War: Vietnam 50% off now. Not sure how I got that!

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Some of these mega-bundles are such insane deals. If someone just put together a gaming PC and never really used Steam before, this is the time to jump in!

Unfortunately (?) for me, I already own 80% or more of anything that might interest me.

 

[Typographenia]

Only bought the original Max Payne, thus far.

I can do this! Self-control is me, and I am self-control!

 

[Peagles]

Looks like Singularity.

Thanks, that would make sense... A visit to the store page gives me the big finger, lol.

Is it anything I'm missing out on?
