[Pinko Marx]

Everyone vote for The Witcher 2, please.
Also, Might & Magic VI, worth it?

 

[I H8 Memes]

That is so cruel that a flash deal changes every 2 hours. But I suppose if you timed it right and only slept for 5 hours and 59 minutes you wouldnt miss out on any of the deals.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Frozen Synapse disagrees

I own it and have yet to play it. Until I do so, I will disagree with you!

 

[Panda Rin]

Voted for the Witcher 2! Might pick up Legend of Grimlock by the end of the day if I decide to.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Where are you getting this? Is there a live chat with a Valve guy somehwere? If so link?

summer camp group chat

Also... dun dun dun

 

[jph139]

Ah finally got the video cheevo, apparently you need to make a new video. I thought it meant sharing a video.

Well let's hope my TF2 replays aren't corrupt, then!

Spoiler

they definitely are

 

[Visualante2]

Fucking .gifs on the first page. :/

Adblocked you all.

 

[Jasoneyu]

Damn flash sale through everything out of wack. Now I must decide whether to wait for a flash sale or a daily sale for max savings.

 

[kswiston]

Ok so if I hate RTSes will I like Shogun

If you want, you can play the Total War games like turn-based 4x games. I do. The real-time strategy parts give you more control over the individual skirmishes, probably letting you win against worse odds, but you can have the computer simulate the outcome if you don't like the real-time battles.

 

[Wolf Dawgz]

Does anybody know if you get taxed for adding funds to your steam wallet? B.C would be the most relevant region.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Flash sales remind me of the sales 2 years ago, which lasted for only 1 or 2 hours (of course all games overlapped during the sale).

Will get Portal 2, voted for Saints Row 3, and will check me wishlist to see actual reductions.

 

[hlhbk]

Damn you GAF you convinced me. Legend of Grimrock bought!

 

[arts&crafts]

I r fail

 

[garath]

Everyone vote for The Witcher 2, please.
Also, Might & Magic VI, worth it?

Why are people voting for Witcher 2? Hasn't that been on sale a bunch of times already? Vote Batman!

Also, I liked Might and Magic VI a lot for what it's worth. Best in the series for me.

 

[Pungza]

Ughh a game like Deus Ex is £5 but Rayman is still £10, screw you Ubi

 

[Danj]

Incidentally have you guys checked out the mobile steam client lately? You can see all the sale deals on there in a nice compact format. I've set my phone to remind me when the new Flash deal is due to go up and I can check (and buy if necessary) it from my phone!

 

[dreamfall]

Voted for The Witcher 2~!

 

[Toma]

I own it and have yet to play it. Until I do so, I will disagree with you!

Better get working on it! Otherwise you'll live with a lie for the rest of your life!

 

[BadAss2961]

Nothing for me today.

Good to see the sale started.

 

[badbrains]

Am I missing something? All i see are the Vote deals and Flash deals, when are we able to view/purchase the daily deals?

 

[mercenar1e]

going to pick up dues ex the missing link for 3.74.. is it worth it?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Sword of Islam is somewhat recent and got a 75% deal. Binding of Isaac too last year, Out 2 weeks, bam sale discount.

It happens, but the discounts will probably be in the 10-33% range.

Hmm true.

And wow, looks like even payment is affected.

 

[kswiston]

Sword of Islam is somewhat recent and got a 75% deal. Binding of Isaac too last year, Out 2 weeks, bam sale discount.

Happens all the time with small publisher and indie stuff, but rarely with big publisher stuff. However, the New Vegas dlc was discounted shortly after release. I got the earlier stuff for 50-66% off and the last couple for 75% off. All within a couple months of release.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Portal 2 and Grimlock will be bought.

Someone convince me not to buy that Activision bundle. Only have Vampire from that bunch, so it's 8 games for €46 that almost never go on sale. Prototype, Singularity, Transformers, Gun... 5.75 per game. I need to think about this...

Nice, I didn't know it could do that. Downloading now.

I love how ea bitches about steam sales and then puts mw3 at 50 percent off the first day :lol

It'd be more amusing if EA had anything to do with Call of Duty. I mean you're right, because every EA game on Steam is currently 50% off, but just not the reasons given.

 

[Twinduct]

I love how ea bitches about steam sales and then puts mw3 at 50 percent off the first day :lol

EA own both BF3 and MW3?

 

[Danj]

I love how MW3 isn't an EA game.

 

[Dog Problems]

There should be a group of nine images of games with discounted prices on them, on the main page.

 

[Komedy]

only managed Portal 2 so far and it was gifted and now the store is down

 

[kai3345]

so is there no achievement hunt/ reward system this year?

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Voted for The Witcher 2. $14.99 would be a great price for the game, but I have a feeling that the other two's bigger names and bigger discounts will lead them to prevail. Let's see how this "new deal every 8 hours" thing works out.

 

[Seraphinianus]

come on Dead Rising 2 OTR!!! 10 or 15 plz

 

[pseudomyxoma]

Guys if I like Minecraft should I get Terraria?

 

[Corky]

EA own both BF3 and MW3?

Wouldn't you?

 

[davidsaurus]

Well, you can afford 7 hours and 59 minutes of sleep.

 

[catabarez]

I love how ea bitches about steam sales and then puts mw3 at 50 percent off the first day :lol

Umm.. MW3 is Activision

 

[Huevos de Oro]

EA own both BF3 and MW3?

GIGATON!

 

[KingKong]

Voted for SR3 so I could pick up all the DLC for cheap

 

[MasLegio]

my god, the design of steam store is shit.

 

[Clever Pun]

You're in for a treat with the Syberia games.

Definitely going to pick those up as well if I have any funds left in my wallet at the end of the sale.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

NO PRIZES THIS YEAR

 

[benjipwns]

Am I missing something? All i see are the Vote deals and Flash deals, when are we able to view/purchase the daily deals?

The daily deals are right smackdab at the top there under "Today's Deals"?

 

[kai3345]

Guys if I like Minecraft should I get Terraria?

Yes because its the better game

 

[echoshifting]

so is there no achievement hunt/ reward system this year?

Just badges. Check your profile...there's a thread for more info.

No info on rewards or achievement hunts but it sounds like they may have something in store for us down the line...

 

[mrgone]

Guys if I like Minecraft should I get Terraria?

Yes. Terraria's awesome

 

[Dennis]

I think I am done for the day, so Gaben.....

 

[hlhbk]

Can you download games remotely using the android Steam app? If you can would someone please let me know how?

 

[benjipwns]

Unless they're staggered 12 hour deals.
