It's only the first day and I'm already starting to lose track of who's offering which games for sale and when.

Competition is great but also incredibly confusing.
 
I'm guessing that doesn't include any DLC, right?

Not 100% positive, but I'm pretty sure that it's just the base game.

So snow globe cards are trading for like .60 cents now. And you get one for every third community choice deal that you vote for. There are 16 days in the sale and three votes per day. So you'll get like $8 or so from Valve just from following along with the sale each day. That's crazyness, especially since $8 buys you a AAA game released this year during the sale.

This is going to be "the great DLC sale" for me. I think I picked up just about everything I wanted during the Spring/Fall sale. Though, if Pacman Chamionship DX+ goes on sale....ooh much buying will be happening.

And this is how you create value and stimulate the economy.
 
GO GO GO!

we need to encourage lack of sleep here

great giveaway tho unknownstranger. already own what Id want out of there
 
Hey guys, Bioshock Triple Pack is actually $11.40 here in South America. I think they are the ROW versions though (not sure if that makes any difference).

If somebody needs help buying them, send me a PM. I'll be online for a few hours.

You should use Enhanced Steam if you are on Chrome or Firefox, it tells you in which site a game is cheaper:

FF link here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/enhanced-steam/versions/ (be sure to grab the latest version that works with the Winter Sale)
Oh, I'm already using that extension, and it's great, but it still doesn't help having to cross-check if a game that's a flash deal on Steam is going to be cheaper in five days on Amazon, or something.

Like I said, things get crazy, but it's all good for the consumer in the end.
 
You'll be back for the DLCs.

MOUHAHAHA!

Probably once Civilization VI and XCOM: Enemy Whatever become available.
I don't play games very often, in fact, I have like 1 hour on both COD Ghosts and AC IV and I have those games from day 1. However, I have a serious addiction to games like Civ, XCOM and FF Tactics. I can invest thousands of hours on those franchise.

See you never, guys :D
 
Someone asked, but I didn't see an answer, so:

Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut. Has the 50% discount for people who already own the original game been abrogated? I was hoping it would "stack" with the sale discounts.

To be fair, the latter games you mentioned are orders of magnitude better than the former games you mentioned.

Really not much of an insight into your play styles at that point. Just means that you have good taste.
