Shadow Warrior surprised me, I thought it was gonna be more arena-shooter'y like Painkiller, instead it's old-school level based search for secrets in every nook and cranny while being a complete badass'y. Only played an hour but fuck me if I'm not gonna recommend the shit out of the game! Anyway, it has Stan Bush, so it's a winner!
Also picked up Trails in the Sky. Don't feel like playing a JRPG right now but the price is right and I can't not have an Xseed published game in my library. (Where's Ark of Napishtim!!!???)

While not as good as 80%, MGR is 75% off at Amazon.
I assume you mean Trails in the Sky, if so it's indeed a daily deal or a "flash" deal. We don't actually have "flash" deals this sale. There are "featured deals" that are up for 48 hours with the term "daily deal" on the game page. Then there are unnamed deals further down the page that we call "flash" just because shorter deals were called that before. They are also "daily deals" according to the game pages and are always up for 24 hours.

On Steam as well, the daily increased the discount by only 5%.
Hadn't even checked, assumed it was 50% off as base discount.
I hope people aren't skipping over it for 5%.

Steam sales are not what they used to be. Might be the second one in a row where I don't buy anything.

I actually think this has been the best sale in a while... Outside of the Halloween Sales, but those just hold extra appeal for me as I love horror games.
Steam Auctions alone made it better than the last Winter Sale.

I should probably wait for a good deal in Gang Beasts, right? Has it been a Daily Deal yet?
You must already be used to gambling pretty hard if you intend to support a Double Fine early access game, so why not just roll the dice?

Thought I'd give Lost Planet a shot for $3.
It's only published by them, not made by them.

Gang Beasts is Double Fine? I had no idea.
I watched it played on youtube months ago and didn't really see the appeal.
Oh, okay.

If Shadow Warrior is crashing/hard locking your system on the Powers screen, try unplugging your gamepad and use a mouse instead. The Devs said this would be fixed on the steam forums last year, looks like it hasn't been fixed as far as I can tell. Unless a recent patch broke it again.
I'm pretty sure all 3 games have zero story connections between each other. I think LP3 takes place way before LP1 and LP2 takes place hundreds of years after. No characters carry over to any other one.
Hell, LP2 isn't even snowy, and you play as a different unnamed character every chapter. It barely has a story at all.
LP3 was made by an American team and has a completely different tone. It's more like space truckers than super soldiers.
One spot left.

who is Emo-Beas?
Rise of Nations was just $5 yesterday on steam. 4 pack was Historical Low: $14.99 at Steam on Sat Dec 20 2014. Not a great deal at all

Which makes a trade for games that cost 3.74 pretty good.
Yes I know, that's why I'm offering to trade my extra copies for games that cost $3.75 right now on steam.

Not planning on getting too much this year, but I reeeeally wanna try Road Redemption, as I'm a big Road Rash fan. $12.99 at 35% off is the lowest it's ever been, but is there any chance for it to become a daily?

Hmm i read that as 1 copy for 2 games. My mistake.
Is there a chance of ____ being a daily is always the same answer.
Maybe. Unless you have to have it now, what's the harm in waiting to see?

I suspect "because I'm an impatient bastard and Steam has me by the balls" is the universal answer for that one.
Thanks for the logic, though. I'll employ every ounce of patience I have and cross my fingers.
Grim Dawn, easily.
It's still in early access though.
It's bad, you'd rather buy the older ones.

This becomes a big problem after a couple of sales. I mean, I am about to reach 1300 games and my completion rate is 46% with only 49 perfect games...

I just hit 900 myself. I'm not sure what my % completion is now though.

Just an FYI - GamersGate has it on sale for $20 for the next 2 1/2 hours.

You can check it on your profile if you pick the achievements showcase.
But, yep, after sales since 2011 I collected way too much stuff for my own sake. So far I haven't bought anything on Steam but I did pick some things off GMG (Castle of Illusion -which was patched to have 60fps- and the now Steamworks Dawn of War II games all 75% off and with a 22% coupon, now that was a deal!).
I'm going to pick Ducktales Remastered if it goes on sale 75% off but nothing else has attracted me so far. Still glued to Valkyria Chronicles because animu strategy and waifu squads with tank support totally overshadowed everything else...
