I wouldn't be mad if they didn't say it lasted through January fuckin 2nd. They should have just said it ended on the first.

When did they say it lasted through January 2nd?

The Steam Holiday sale is on now. Until January 2, every game on Steam is available at 10% to 75% off the regular price. Select publisher catalogs such as Ubisoft, THQ, and 2K Games are 25% off. Award-winning titles such as Bioshock and Portal are available for 75% off the regular price. For more information, please visit steamgames.com/holidaysale

As far as I know, until != through. Hell, I would've expected it to end at 12am January 2nd PST. Besides, I'm not sure of your timezone, but the deals didn't actually end until about 12pm-ish for me.

As if weekend deals were not awesome enough, this holiday deal has blown everything else away. I have spent more on Steam then I did on anything else this holiday :lol



Sucks ;/ dunno what the problem could be.

Managed to figure it out! Had to check the integrity of the files and now it seems to run fine (only played the intro though). Can't get to work properly with DX10 however.

 

[Cheeto]

Can someone who has me on their friend's list copy/paste the games that I bought since the deal started?

 

[SapientWolf]

I bought World in Conflict yesterday, but I doubt I'll play multi. The SP campaign looks interesting enough, and I really don't care to be fresh meat for anyone still playing a RTS a year after release. :lol

No one in the pubs really works together though. I reckon that two or three good team players can dominate a server, even if they were relatively new to the game.

All you have to do is log into Steam, click on "My account" at the homepage and check the most recent purchases.

Somewhere in the range of 90% of my gaming in the last 6 months (and game purchases, for that matter, in the last 2-3 years) have been in Steam games.

 

[Peronthious]

Gah, meant to get Civ IV complete. Kept putting it off since I've got it on disc right here, but it'd be so much more convenient to have on Steam. $25 was such a steal >_<

 

[Twig]

I thought the Enhanced Edition was supposed to fix stability issues. ;_;

Second time The Witcher's randomly crashed on me. Game autosaves pretty frequently so it's not a huge deal, but still.

 

[Hunter D]

I bought UT3, BS, Trials 2, and peggle. I hope people actually play UT3.

 

[Shanks]

sounds like its just the resolution. Right click the game in steam and go to properties then launch options. put -windowed in the box.

Yeah. Still nothing but black..

I guess my video card isn't up to the task?

Yeah probably. I'd say try updating your drivers for the card but I don't know how much that'll matter with what you have.

Bioshock has no sound. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Nope, its fine here. Although it is quiet for some reason, maybe im just going deaf.

Played Defense Grid for 2 hrs before :lol . I suck at TD games but fuck its alot of fun.

Every mission i start off thinking "this is not going to end well", By the end of the mission im ready to jump out of my chair and scream FUCK YEA, Since i somehow pull it off.

No weekend deal this time. Would've been up around noon PST if there was one.

You know you can look by yourselve by looking at Community tab -> Blotter -> my history, right?

 

[Docpan]

Should solve that problem

Thanks for your help. That worked perfectly.

 

[Everdred]

My quake 3 arena key doesn't work anyone having this issue?

EDIT: it had to be put in lower case
