My inventory shows up, but not my steam tab.
This is a little bungled.

first year living with the PC master race, so I jumped on Metro 2033 for $5.
wtf, seriously $5. Fuck console gaming forever.
skyrim will probably be the only game I'll have to pay full price on for a long time.

No one knows. Wait until it's actually active.

WTF, I can see my friends' inventories just fine, but mine is just empty. This is starting to piss me off.
We don't know yet, the BIT TRIP Runner achievements aren't among the "achievements of the day".

I'm amazed that Steam is still struggling.

You got robbed, it's 2,50 euros in here
Thinking about getting Singularity, Portal Pack and Orcs Must Die. But I know I won't be playing them anytime soon...

BioShock Infinite is like playing some homeless guy's vivid imagination
Why?
I can't believe some people honestly think Skyrim won't go on sale. Come on, GAF, step your game up.

My inventory shows up. Looks like I got Napoleon Total War Imperial Edition and -25% coupon on Valve games. Wonder if games you get gifted are picked from your wishlist, Napoleon was on mine.

Much like the first snow of winter catches everyone off guard the first day of steam sale does to valve...except they control the weather.
Portal 2 I'll get you eventually. But will I ever play you? *dated portal 1 joke meme goes here*
I really don't like the way the bundles are done this time; too many games, too much overlap. I liked last years 4 game bundles plus the daily Indie game was neat.

Well given the price it is already,say it goes down to 90% off thats not much extra to have it 1-13 days early.
Go via community and view inventory.
In the past the answer has been no.

I got 75% off napoleon and 50% off a valve game, both shit I don't want. Napoleon wasn't on my wishlist.

It's Steamworks, so just keep your eyes open for a great deal. It'll happen.

Does SSFIV AE have a decent sized online community? Or is it a ghost town?

Anyone know if Valve ever plans to make it easier to purchase items from your wishlist? It would be great if it were similar to amazon. Check off a bunch of items from the list and then click "add to cart."
I'm surprised this is not in place. Right now it seems like you have to visit the store page of each game individually and then add them individually to your cart. Am I missing something. I know, sure, it is easy enough, but I would think even the tiniest barrier to purchasing something would be done away with.
Anyway, I'm stoked! I have about 20 games on my wishlist. I hope to see some crazy deals! Specifically - Civilization V - GOTY.

Those getting 2 items is that from 2 achievements, or from the 'free' one they give you?

Pretty sure 7.50 is as low as it will go this sale.

Got 50% off Solar 2 and 25% of any Valve game. Never heard of Solar 2, but it's half price at the moment anyway so it's kind of a non-deal.

(assuming you mean outside the sale)Its Valve, anything could happen (see Portal 1 given away for free; twice). But 75% off should be the best deal for at least the next few months.

Any advice on Warned Bros. Complete Pack? Worth the price?
I got 25% off a Valve game and 50% off Shadowgrounds: Survivor... which I already own.
Somehow it's oddly fitting that lumps of coal are in vogue this year.

Gift Pile page now says Maintenance. There is hope!

Grabbed the Fable collection for $20, that's about all I'm keen on today. Although keen may be overstating things a bit.

It's a great game. Why do you hate nice things?
I paid $50 for it about 2 weeks ago on amazon. It was on sale for a whole 15 minutes.
e: bulletstorm is 9.99 right now, but its not on the front page, how can i tell if its a daily deal? i should wait right?
what about binding of isaac and poker night for 2.49 and 3.34 respectively? any chance they go any lower?

Two achievements : free one when you first log in and 2nd one for completing "check your inventory" achievement.

Link? I don't see that anywhere.
I am confident that it'll be discounted to $45 at the very least. $40 if Bethesda is feeling extra generous.
A bit confused.
Got the confirmation earlier that I indeed sent my two gifts/messages on Steam, but when I click on the "manage gifts and guess passes" button, it still gives me the "send gift" button option. Are you able to send more than one gift through a single purchase, or did Steam just screw up?

There should be a way to grind useless coupons into lumps of coal, it seems more valuable than any discount they can come up with (especially when it doesn't stack with the sale and everything is already discounted). The possibility of a free game seems nice tho, even if you already own it.
