It was, probably will be a proper daily deal tomorrow.

If RAGE goes to $10, so bought.

Just Warband is enough, I don't think the original has much value over Warband.

At most I'd imagine they would just match it. Plus that nets you $5 off a purchase towards one of these games.

Probably picking up Monday Night Combat and Neverwinter Nights 2.
I played the first NWN way way back when it was released, is Neverwinter Nights 2 as good or better?

Warband is all you need, it's an updated version of M&B.
And there are free mods for it that are way better than With Fire & Sword.
NWN 2, especially the first addon, is excellent.
The modding community never became as active as with the first game though.
My gift pile is so depressing =(
Oh and dont let the booty fool you. These FINE gifts are available for trade if anyone's interested. I know I wont win shit and I only plan on buying maybe 2-3 games this round, so stand back fellas.. this loot is up for grabs!
I know... I know.... its such good stuff that its really hard to come up with a suitable trade equivalent, but you know what... I'm a flexible guy.
I admit jealousy. Amazon Download service not available in Canada, and sonic is the only game I'm willing to go over $10 for
. Will probably crack at $20 at the end of sale if no daily.Was just able to check this out today, hit the get started button and got Portal 2 as my first gift.
I had been wanting to check this out since I just played through the first game a few months back.I admit jealousy. Amazon Download service not available in Canada, and sonic is the only game I'm willing to go over $10 for
I'm in the UK and I bought sonic from amazon.com today.
Just make an account and use Googles address

Thinking of getting Mount & Blade Warband since it's a Paradox games. However, I'm more hoping I can trade a HiB3 code and/or some coal for it.

Yup. Just use a US address for your purchase and it'll go through easily. That's what everyone else has been doing that doesn't live here.
Ah, so the price drop is in effect. This bodes well for a great daily deal.
So let me see if I got this correctly:
On a Steam sale, daily deals mean some games are being sold at a discount. But the next day, those deals still remain and Steam just adds more games to the sale, correct?
Or are the deals for specific games over in 24 hours+4 hours from the next day?
What does it mean when somebody says wait till the last day of sales?

No. Daily deal means you only get it for that price the day it's the deal and the 4 hour overtime they are doing the next day.
24+4 hours.

If you want something, wait until the end of the sale to buy it or when it's a daily deal before that.

However the game will STILL be on SALE before and after it's appearance as a daily deal, just not at the DAILY DEAL price.

Bulletstorm is 9.99 and Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition is 14.99.

A piece of coal currently shakes out to something like a $1.25 if you trade it for a game. That'll probably go down as more appear and people realize crafting is not as good as they think.

deal gone!
Alright, let's do this.
...Fuck. Already have that game and it's 50% off during the sale anyway. Yay.
I'll take that Prototype coupon if you aren't gonna use it

Pretty sure it will be 15 for the daily deal.

I figured the presents would suck for the most part and end up coupons whenever Valve announced coupons for steam. Sadly it looks like that's the case with them usually being coupons. Personally I liked how they did the summer sale better.
Someone got Left 4 Dead from it, that's a decent prize I guess.
Hmmm, should probably wait for a daily. Bulletstorm is $35 on the AU store after the discount...lol

I might use it unless Prototype ends up being a daily, it's the only kinda good thing I've gotten so far, lol.
Agreed. At least you knew what to turn in your tickets for in the summer sale. Turning in coal and not knowing what you will get (most likely garbo in return) sucks.

Though I liked the summer sale prizes better, I like that they experiment. Makes me wonder what crazy shit they'll do for 2012's summer.
I got Brink, thats almost good.
Latest 7 got me a Dungeon of Dredmor Coupon. But I just bought the game...
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
DOTA 2
Skyrim..
Yeah, I'd be pleased with any of those.
Edit: Maybe Skyrim was bad intel.
Yeah, +votes for summer sale.
To be honest though, I can't be the only one who enjoys getting the achievements more than the prizes? It's just fun to have goals in all these games I never play but own.
Also: Got Sonic Generations on Amazon! Thanks guys!
