My haul - Smaller than i'd like...

Bioshock Infinite
Dark Souls
DiRT 3
Skyrim
Trials Evolution
The Witcher 2

Still on the fence with Farcry 3, Just Cause 2, Rome Total War 2 and GRID 2 so those sale purchases will probably end up timing out.

Kind of hope Rust shows up in the Best Of last day list, want to pick it up just for the dongs.
 

JaseC

gave away the keys to the kingdom.
i forgot about that. gat DAMN.

It still baffles me that you can still spend that much given you own almost all the Steam catelog

When the sale began my game count was "only" around 1,500. This year's Summer Sale will certainly be interesting if I have a similar amount of money to spend, though, which I should do assuming I file my tax return in time (seriously, Valve moving the sale to July is the best thing that could have happened for Aussies ;)).

Natural Selection 2
Gunpoint
Fallout: New Vegas

I bought Mercenary Kings while the sale was going on but it was discounted or anything.
 
I wasn't in the mood to play games for most of the year until now, so I took this opportunity to buy and catch up to most of the indie hits this year, as well as some regular titles:

Papers, Please
The Swapper
Rogue Legacy
Bioshock 2
Bioshock 2: Minerva's Den
Bioshock Infinite
Gunpoint
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (preorder)
The Stanley Parable
PixelJunk Eden

It was a good haul, and I've already completed and thoroughly enjoyed a handful of these.

EDIT: Also bought Portal and FEZ as gift items
 
  • You Need A Budget 4
  • Dragon Age: Origins - Deluxe + Awakening
  • Sid Meier's Civilization V: Brave New World

I held out this year. Spelunky and that other Rain game almost got me but I have an extensive back log to work on from previous sales.

Anyone ever think that they've started to saturate the market for Steam Sales because people just don't want $2 games anymore because of that thing called Time? More and more of my friends are ignoring these sales.

Formerly Alaluef (not Aladuf)
List turned out big all things considered, but I didn't spend too much since there were no expensive single purchases this time. I'm still reeling from the Summer sale to be honest, and a lot of it was stuff I either have already or that I can wait until a following sale.

From the "actually purchased on Steam" list I already played through the two released Bioshock Infinite DLCs, Guacamelee (100%-ed) and I'm playing PixelJunk Eden at the moment. Plan to check the rest of the list soon enough, including what I got in giveaways and as gifts. As per usual, no idea when I'll touch most of the bundle stuff so that can go either way.

Actually purchased on Steam:
Bioshock Infinite Season Pass
Machinarium
Guacamelee! Gold Edition
The Binding Of Isaac (plus the DLC, stored in my inventory to activate later)
Time Gentlemen, Please!
PixelJunk Eden
Risk of Rain + 1 gift copy

Savant - Ascent + 1 gift copy

$166.93 or an average of $5.22 per game. I had no job for most of the year and then got a good job a month before the sale, so I kind of went a little crazy after being annoyed at missing out on so many games for so long from lack of money. No regrets.

Only bought the two OSTs for Splice as well as Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon for some crap, janky bug shooting. Having nothing but card money during a sale sucks. :(

I didn't think I was going to buy anything, ended up with:

You Don't Know Jack series
Max Payne 3
Deadlight
Slender: The Arrival
The Swapper
Valdis Story

and The Stanley Parable - bought for 8 bucks, played for about 45 minutes and am done. It was really cool, but 8 bucks still seems high to me for the length, and the GOTY noms for this game surprise me quite a bit. It's a one trick pony and there really isn't a ton to do.
