[Trouble]

C'mon $15 GTAV, only been waiting like 4 goddamn years

I would totally double-dip at $15, but it ain't gonna happen. The game came out for PC in April.

 

[Durante]

I have a lot more stuff in my wishlist than ever before (mostly due to the Steam redesign and flood of games). This will be fun.

 

[Glass Shark]

Too late, all my Steam Wallet money went into hunting for Faceless Rex from Collector's Caches.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

I'll skip it this year. Lots of financial problems on my end.

 

[Bunta]

C'mon $15 GTAV, only been waiting like 4 goddamn years

$25 and I'm there. I doubt it will happen, though.

 

[Nokterian]

Fuck..and i don't have any money

 

[zlatko]

Bioshock infinite for less than 5 is all I want.

 

[Obliterator]

i was going to post in the rumor thread about this earlier and couldn't tell if it was confirmed or not lol

Bunch of people got the e-mail and considering PayPal will be handling a lot of the transactions they know the date. This is confirmation

 

[iceblade997]

Gonna try avoiding buying stuff this sale. As others, I've already got so many games and need to continue focusing on the backlog.

Same... my first steam sale ever. Starting to transition back to PC games.

Don't forget - wait for a flash sale / community choice or daily deal. If the game you want hasn't come up in either of those by the end of the sale, then buy it on the last day. .

I hope they will have some good sales this time. Used to buy loads during Steam sales, but I haven't bought a single thing in the last 4 big sales.

Maybe it's just me, but the prices recently seem way worse than the sales of old.

This is the thread for the 2015 steam summer sale, not the 2019 steam summer sale.

A lot of price reductions can seem pretty stingy for recent releases, I recall seeing discounts as low as 15% front and center on the daily deals for $60 titles. It doesn't really bother me, since that's one less game to be tempted by. Most of the money I spend during a steam sale is for giveaways and smaller indie titles when Salsa or whomever builds the hidden gems thread out of the $1-$5-$10 thresholds.

[kewlmyc]

Doubt it, but I want the Witcher 3 to go on sale.

Best part about Steam Summer Sales is that Amazon's does the same as well around the same time.

 

[OnionPowder]

C'mon $15 GTAV, only been waiting like 4 goddamn years

Maybe $15 off

Maybe

 

[Afrocious]

I relate to this so well.

Also, since Steam has refunds now, can't we just return a game we buy from the Summer Sales if it shows up again with a better price?

 

[Shepard]

More than 100 games on my wishlist, I'm fucked.

 

[Red Hood]

Musts...... control.......... myself............

 

[Funyarinpa]

How likely is Alien: Isolation to get at least 50% off? (Launched laat November IIRC)

 

[CyberPunked]

i think i saw it go for even cheaper on steam

 

[Applesauce]

I've got almost 100 games on my wishlist thanks to Steam's daily queue, I don't know if my wallet is ready this year.

lol @ GTAV for $15

 

[Impeccable]

Good tip, thanks.

It was already on sale on the PSN store. So most likely high.

It's probably just you. It used to be that games would pretty much cap at 75% off, but I've been seeing more and more games go 80% or even 90% off, and that's outside of big sales

 

[Dog Problems]

I don't recall the last few Steam sales as particularly mindblowing, outside of the occasional price glitch.

I haven't participated in the past few sales but I did browse a bit and noticed the sales weren't quite as good as they were in the past. Still, this upcoming one I'm interested in and if I can get some stuff on my wishlist for at least half off then I'll be happy.

 

[Applesauce]

75% from the Humble Store not too long ago. Jumped all over that, I did.

 

[Clearos]

Yes, i remember reading that as long as it is within 14 days and 2 hours a return for a better price is NOT an abuse of the system.

 

[Obliterator]

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if Alien Isolation is 75% off. I bought it last sale for 60% off I think

 

[Shizuka]

Come on, I want Grisaia, Ark of Napishtim and Trails!

 

[RootCause]

Hmm I should really get ready. I plan on getting a gaming PC, and this would be a nice way of building my library. :O

 

[Twin Tails]

 

[Kadin]

I wonder if I should get these out and ready to use again...

Spoiler

I really hope not.

You guys make me happy.

 

[deadman69]

Can't wait though!

Definitely going to be 75%. That's when I bite.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Yet another overblown sale where the same games that have been heavily discounted as daily deals in the past, will be heavily discounted as daily deals once again.

If inly Valve would make new games to discount.

 

[GeNoMe]

Can't.......resist!.....must spend.....my money uaaaargh!!!

 

[shandy706]

Community is going to vote for the wrong shit again just like every other sale.

Drives me nuts

 

[depths20XX]

Winter sale was pretty lackluster.

Prepare for L4D2 to be $5 or something. WOW!

 

[Purkake4]

Yet another overblown sale where the same games that have been heavily discounted as daily deals in the past, will be heavily discounted as daily deals once again.

But there's always new people and upgraded PCs.

It will not end as long as there's one steam account without Bad Rats.

 

[The Lone Courier]

Oh man.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Not a game but I really hope You Need A Budget goes on sale. I kinda want/need it.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

GTA5 better be fucking $30.

 

[mnannola]

Elite Dangerous, you have been $60 for far too long. It's time.
