Are there different levels for this badge like last summer? Like lvl1 = 50 points, lvl2 =100points etc.

I suggest that everyone who doesn't have it yet buys Valkyria.

It's really that good.

It does look pretty good but I'm not sure I'll ever get to play it. I'm a huge casual who gives top priority to AAA stuff like Dark Souls, Witcher, Batman... you know? :p

EDIT: Decided to give it a try. Bought!

I'm tempted to buy Styx but it's on sale on PS4 right now as well, and it's 3€ cheaper there. Does anybody have experience with both versions or know if there are any differences at all?

how much cheaper do you honestly think any of these games will get? fallout 3 at $5 shadowrun dfdc at 4.50

on a daily what am i gonna save 50 cents, maybe $1.

By all means, knock yourself out breh. We're just trying to help some of you folks save a little coin, a little goes a long way during a steam sale.

Saving is saving, dont waste your money.

Also, I just returned to the sale game after a while and it dropped a card and I had gold to spend.

Now this is a bit weird. I'm looking at the Xcom store page and it says :

XCOM: Enemy Unknown Complete Pack (which includes all the DLC and expansion ): 10,99$

But then I look at Enemy Within DLC : 16,49$.

I'm guessing this is bugged, because it makes no sense.

Half of my wishlist is 50% or greater, this may turn out to be a very good sale. Even if nothing else goes on daily or flash, I could do some serious damage on the last day.

I wish I could recapture the magic of my first Steam sale. So glorious.
I still have memories of the very first one. I was with extended relatives for the holidays, I got a text from a friend that there was a massive sale on steam. Used the relatives' computer to check steampowered and holy moly it was amazing.

That was when I got Shadow of Chernobyl for $5. Don't remember what else I bought that year.

Well hopefully Fallout 3 GOTY with all the DLC will go down from $12 to $5 in a daily. I'm pretty sure it's hit that price before in past Steam sale, and $12 is a pretty meh deal for a game almost 7 years old now. But I can understand that they're trying to capitalize a bit more now due to the Fallout 4 hype.

I can't seem to find any PS4/PC comparisons, but I can say the latter runs just fine. It's UE3-based, so that's not surprising.

Fallout 3 will probably be 2.49

Plus for Fallout 3 and New Vegas those current $5 ones are just for the base game and not the GOTY (Ultimate for New Vegas) edition which have all of the story dlcs included for both games.

So if the discounts kicked in and its 75% then

Fallout 3 - 2.49
Fallout New Vegas - 2.49
Fallout 3 GOTY (Game + 4(?) Story DLC packs) - 5.00
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition (Game + 4(?) Story DLC packs) - 5.00

I have an extra key for Wasteland 2 from when I kickstarted it. If anyone wants to gift me the Metro bundle, PM me.

(MattyG PM'd me)

(Solid trade, he's alright)
 
Yeah, but I was expecting as much, which is why the FAQ has the name that it does. ;)

Holy shit. I actually 'read' the OP and still missed that gem. Haha, Bravo!

I think I pulled the old get to 'frequently' and assumed the rest speed read maneuver.

In other words, I should take my own advice :(

PS4 ver. has performance issues, but on a decent rig the game will run fine and better.
 
10% off Witcher 3 is lame. Expected, but lame :(

I know it might go slightly cheaper on a daily but I doubt it will drop below £40. I remember when the prospect of a PC game costing £50 was ridiculous, oh how I miss those days...

5 years ago W3 would have been £29 new.
 
What does the Summer Sale badge and Monster Game badge get me?
Each level of your Summer Sale badge and each 10 levels of your Monster Game badge will get you a special Badge Point to spend when you start a Monster Summer Game. These points can be used to buy special abilities to help you and your team.

Team?

If I remember correctly, it suffers the same problem that the xb1 version does in longer load times than the PC, but otherwise a very similar experience. The longer load times 'could' be a problem in this type of game, but it just kind of depends on your playstyle and patience level.
