What is this promo you speak of?

Hmm, 50% on Enemy Within. Good enough for me!
I never thought I'd fill my extra 2TB; time to make some choices.

Buy a game on Amazon, get 5 dollars off a select game in January.
And yay, I finally crafted the snow globe. Whee!

What kind of game is forced, no access to computer so can't really look it up so efficiently ATM. If it is tempting and I like I might jump in if you can find a 4th guy.

"Forced is a one- to four-player co-op arcade action RPG with puzzle and tactical elements. You are cast as slaves in the toughest fantasy gladiator school of them all, condemned to fight to the death, all the while attempting to win your freedom."
That doesn't sound like a good promo... :\

listen to the mad man
There's no fixed pace. It started at about 6 months between mainlines then got more frequent. But I would imagine most of the major candidates for inclusion want to ride out te holiday sales before bundling.

I suppose it's worth a gamble on anything under 5 bucks, since then you theoretically get the game for "free" if you use coupon on a game.
Gotta get them winter globes yo.

THanks for Nether JaseC. I was actually considering buying it, but Mobius said it was pretty bad and needed some patches, and I saw that they put some out.

The select games will be on sale and the 5$ credit will stack, even with games that have a 5$ price point. If last year was anything to go by the deals should be awesome.

So true. No more Forza 5 or Resogun for a long while for me.
I imagine it is enhanced and improved Diablo (><)
haven't played it myself, but supposedly coop is fun.
It's actually a pretty solid promo because Amazon's selection of Editor's Choice games is decent. Two years ago, I got Bulletstorm and Crysis 2 for $5 each ($10 - $5 code) and last year I got Walking Dead for $7.50 ($12.50 - $5 code) and Spec Ops: The Sand for $2 ($7 - $5 code).
The only "catch" is that you're still spending more money on games, but if you're really looking to buy more stuff, it's definitely great incentive.
EDIT:
Well, last year there was a Humble Bundle right in mid-December right before the Christmas sale, which was great in consolidating/cutting down my indie purchases for the winter sale, but it seems there's no such luck this time. This year, it's looking like I'm gonna buy Spelunky and Guacamelee for $3.74, then have them both show up in Humble Bundle X next year :-/

Amazing.
Bioshock Infinite season pass for $5 makes up the shitty sales so far (for me at least)
besides, we still have 12 days? 11 days? And then Amazon will do their Jan sale along with probably GMG again so i ain't even mad. Although i have been firing money at my tv like a machine gun yelling TAKE MY MONEY STEAM and they seem to continue to put up their shitty deal force field.
I got that too. Pricing errors are the best.
Do you need to use a code or something to get that Amazon promo?

Its a crap sale because I missed this, dam it to hell!.
It was my first ever price error so i am extremely pleased.
I should of bought a couple extras to give to GAF but i hadn't had my coffee that morning. I almost missed out myself.

This is been my lowest spending on a steam sale ever, .75 (thanks to card money). Of course I've only purchased Sword of the Stars: The Pit (and DLC).
Enemy Within is already on sale as part of the xcom flash sale, so at least that won't go any lower.
I've only spent .63 so far. I guess my wallet is safe this time around.
Wuh?
They both are on flash sale right now.
We all did. It's okay.

I think if we got a group of 4, I could get a 4-pack of Starbound for about $8.25/each.
I know Cheddahz would be down -- are there two more?

3 minutes until "These discount sucks"
What makes you think they were any good to begin with? Huh? Huh?
Hahaha I'm not that crazy.
Because they were both on flash deals for 50% and 75% respectively and it was buy now or have to wait for the inevitable daily at the same price. My reasoning was that The Bureau hasn't done too well in sales and might drop fro a base price of £29.99 to £19.99 after Jan and will be dirt cheap next year. Though it's something I'm going to play right away so I can deal with a couple of quid loss.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Epic!
