Looking, Zenimax/Bethsada did a lot of price drops.

Evil Within 60 -> 20
Wolfenstein 60 -> 20
Morrowind 20 - 15
Obvilion 20 -> 15
ESO 50 -> 40
Hunted, Call of Chutulu, etc 10 -> 5


If Morrowind and Oblivion get that 75% off, looks like I'll be able to kill off more of my physical collection.

I'm surprised they did it before the sale, I thought publishers usually did sales before their price drop so they can show a higher percentage on the discount prices they want to offer.

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.

That is the usual MO from most publishers, good to see that they're not all engaging in that sort of scum behavior.

Also, this should allow for some pretty sweet and perhaps unprecedented discounts on some of their earlier games. Oblivion GOTY Deluxe Edition could be $5 which would be an all time low.

I got it during the last sale because I never expected it to hit its historical low this soon ;_;

Even if you paid $6.24 for it (it's current historical low) you got a great deal. The Shivering Isles expansion in particular is amazing, and with everything included there you could easily spend 75-100 hours doing it all.

Very surprised, Bethesda usually does the exact opposite!

I still remember a ocassion before a Winter Sale, where the game was 30€ normally. A few days before the Winter Sale, they raised the price to 50€ and discounted the game to 33€.

Game went straight up to the top selling list regardless.

Ended up making about £8.50 idle-ing and selling my cards over the past half week (thank you Jshackles).

Will probably end up only using what is currently in my Steam wallet this sale as I recently bought Overwatch.

Watch they accidentally made their steam sale prices the regular price.

Shivering Isles - that brings back memories. Oblivion GOTY is one of the few physical copies I haven't replaced on Steam yet.

Looking forward to picking apart any Steam news and announcements getting buried underneath the "is the price going to get any lower" or "where are the daily deals" posts.

But where are they, though?

I plan on buying too many Final Fantasy games. What am I even doing.

Given your evident concern with making sure any Steam news and announcements don't get bury, I assume you are signing up to make separate threads for any such announcements that occur during the Summer Sale. :)

XIII is the only one you need. Maybe the sequels too, but I haven't played them yet.

Sadly Theatrhythm isn't on Steam, as that one may be even better than XIII (at least Curtain Call, which has enough content to last a lifetime or two).

Hey, some of us have jobs Stump! Now if I were to get compensated with Steam games then sure I'll make the time for it. >_>

The winter sale thread was fun. I don't remember much daily deal spam or anything like that, just lots of game recommendations.

hmm notHuniePop seems to have a lot bad reviews but based on the reviews i cannot really tell if the people are bad at match3 or puzzles are just luck.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/483960/?snr=1_4_4__131

but i do like match3 and 2d.

I'll probably pick it up when it hits $5
Click to expand...

yeah I got the same feeling reading one review. It seems the same mechanics as Puzzle & Dragons, so I wouldn't say it's luck based or that you don't have control of the board. Or maybe it's not like P&D

From the video, it definitely seems to be like P&D. The cursor moving through the board "rotating" stones, all that.

PS: Wishlisted although I am not big on the "let's move to the next scene with the girl" thing.

Steam Sale surprise announcement...TITANFALL 2 now available for preorder!!! And it's going to have tradable skins for weapons/pilots/Titans and dedicated server support and different recoil balances for kbm/pad players and a weapon inspect button and it'll be esports

But only this game will be available on Steam because EA's games suck ( ≖‿≖)

On Steam? They were, both games in fact. Unless you're making a joke about them being so bad that you'd rather pretend they don't exist, in which case I'd say that's strange given that many people seem to like XIII-2 more than the first one, so it'd make more sense to disregard the former (even though that would be a big mistake).
