They are a good set of games; played runaway 1 and 2 and they are like old school Lucasarts PnC - not as good, but about as close as you get nowadays
I'm new to this, so bear with me.
Nba 2k12 is currently sitting at $15, its been 40 on the service since release. IS it going to stay this price til the end of the sale/it has a daily deal? Or am I better off purchasing it now?
e: same goes for deus ex hr, is $34ish now, but I'd like to buy both of these at an even lower price.

I liked Singularity a good bit. Short but sweet.

Same here, Steam servers are looking F'ed in the A on my end as well.

When I click check my steam inventory I go to a page that has like this big blank black box, but nothing is there. It also says 0 gifts in my inventory.

Not, if all think that !@#$%^&* and everyone is spending them. Then you have won automatically

This. Is. Evil.
Valve are making me want to buy games just so i can potentially win games, or even worse, get discounts so i can buy more games...
Now which twisted motherfucker thought this one up!?!
Valve own us all. We all know it, but are powerless to it.

Yes it will stay that price until the last day. So wait until the last day to see if it ends up being a daily deal.

It says on the game page whether it's a daily deal and how long it lasts.

Someone sell me on Orcs Must Die? Looks like a neat little game but what is it similar to?
Do you have time to try the demo (assuming you can download it)?

if it's not a DAILY DEAL (and neither one of those are at this point) then you should wait. they will stay on sale at the price they're at now until at least jan. 1. They MAY come up as a daily deal at some point between tomorrow and jan 1 though

If nothing appears in my gift inventory does that mean I got coal and not a gift? I can't get my 1 free gift to appear for the life of me.

So you're saying I should just trade them in for prizes? But I could win all games on Steam! Sure, it probably won't happen, but to one happy soul it will.
Also, there are a total of 1151 prizes (1 person gets all Steam games, 50 people get the 10 first games on their wish lists, 100 people get the 5 first games on their wish lists, and 1000 people get the Vavle Complete Pack). Ok, so the odds are still ridiculous, but yeah...
Neither can most of us, the inventory seems to be broken right now.
It's fast paced, violent tower defense that involves your player character more than most other titles. There's a demo.
Do you like tower defense games? YES/NO doesn't matter, I didn't like them and I love Orcs must die. It has a demo. Play it.
Amazing polish for such a neat little game. For that amount of money it's a no brainer.
Got -50% of any Valve title but it is only valid after the sales have ended. Nice one Steam.
Golden tickets can be used during the sale, but I haven't seen one or seen anyone mention getting one yet.
Same, back to sleep I think!
All three of the coupons I got were for games I already own. 33% off Valve Complete Pack, 25% off any Valve title, and 50% off Orcs Must Die!.

NBA 2K12 is $10 on amazon's DD service as long as you don't have to have it on steam. It doesn't register on steam.

Now I don't feel so bad.
I'm not alone.
It's an attempt to advertise their new coupon system and make sure some of their hardcore users acquaint themselves with it, while cross-promoting their annual holiday sale to boot.
The odds of the big gift pile giving someone a game is going to be very, very, very low while the odds of someone getting a coupon is going to be very, very, very high.

Something is not right. I have 2 Objectives completed, however nothing shows up in my Steam Inventory. Spiral Knights shows as having 5 items "Spiral Knights (5)" however when I click on the tab nothing shows up. Portal 2 has a tab as well, also empty.

At least you got that far. The great gift pile tells me to click to check my inventory, but every time I do that it always comes up blank.
It happened guys. Time to pack and leave, no more Steam.
Joseph Merrick vindicated.
Those are probably in-game items that you already earned and probably don't have anything to do with the current holiday objectives. And the inventory system currently isn't working.
