Guys I'm serious I NEED The Witcher 2 so you better vote for it. Those who don't will make my list.

I have Arkham City and Witcher 2, but am not interested at all in Saint's Row. So, I voted for The Witcher 2. List DODGED.

 

[Visualante2]

I am having a hard time overlooking the people moaning about Arma's discount. It really makes me want to break out the E word.

 

[Tess3ract]

We're Sorry this game is not available in your region? I'm in the USA...

 

[Cindres]

Flash sales are gonna kill me, Valve are marketing geniuses.

Also, I'm not getting the badge for joining the steam summer sale group even though I am in it, anyone else?

EDIT: Also yeah, voted for Witcher 2, only one of those 3 games I don't already own in some capacity because I'm waiting till I get a new PC to play it.

 

[echoshifting]

Nobody is gonna know how the flash sales impact the first rule for at least a few days, folks.

 

[mxgt]

Aw shit just noticed the vote deal is every 8 hours

 

[Nelo Ice]

So are flash sales better than daily sales better than normal sales?

bolded coz i know this is gonna get lost in the rush...

I don't think of any of us expected this. Yeah Steam is just fucked up.

 

[wonderboyjones]

I already own Witcher 2 but I think everyone should experience it so I voted on that one.

 

[beanman25]

purchased Ys.


I love you Gabe

 

[Piercedveil]

Nothing for me today

 

[Petrie]

Where are these badges?

 

[fluffydelusions]

So far rayman origins and grimlock...argh arma 2 combined ops is only 20% off...what else to get gaf???

 

[ShallNoiseUpon]

Hell yeah Railworks Collection: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/15346/

Price of individual games:$119.92
Bundle cost:$239.92

I love it.

 

[(._.)]

Rayman Origins $15 as a flash deal.

What's up with that? Will daily deals be cheaper? Should I wait or is this the cheapest it will probably be?

 

[Recall]

#1 rule of Steam sales: Wait for the Daily Deal...

I'm ok, I saved enough. Honestly.

 

[Toma]

I don't think of any of us expected this. Yeah Steam is just fucked up.

Why fucked up? More sales = more win?

 

[justjim89]

So what do the badges actually do?

 

[Derrick01]

I am having a hard time overlooking the people moaning about Arma's discount. It really makes me want to break out the E word.

20% is a shit discount no matter what excuse you want to think of.

 

[Joe Molotov]

There has to be some kind of meta game

THERE HAS TO BE!!!!

Collect all the games to win.

 

[Vostro]

What is this badges that people are talking about?

 

[dwebo]

need more sales for $5 or less that isn't portal 2 or indie games

 

[LobLob]

Um, i can't buy my game with my wallet funds, is anyone else getting this? WTF?!

 

[TheLucifer]

All right, first day of sales and I haven't bought nothing I was afraid to spend a good part of my dedicated money today, paycheck is too far.

Voting for Saints Row 3, btw, I was waiting for a deal on the Season Pass.

 

[phantomspiker]

Come on Saint's Row the Third, you can win! I believe in you!

 

[Boss Doggie]

You guys lied to me, you said Rayman would get smaller

Also... no summer games? Damn... so no chance to get 10 games or some freebies?

 

[Jzero]

i wanted to do cooler achievements

 

[Visualante2]

So what do the badges actually do?

e-penis

 

[tjohn86]

Everyone vote for saints row 3!

 

[TheNamelessOne]

Also, I'm not getting the badge for joining the steam summer sale group even though I am in it, anyone else?

Same here. I left and rejoined but it didn't help. Just have to wait I suppose.

 

[Tess3ract]

Also Vote for SR3

 

[Maiger]

I can feel the money burning! Deus Ex: HR -75%

 

[Shadybiz]

Well, nothing on the Dailies for me today, but as they say, the sale is still young!

Anyone who doesn't have Portal 2 by now should get it, though; had alot of fun with that one.

 

[Gala]

Also, I'm not getting the badge for joining the steam summer sale group even though I am in it, anyone else?

I have the same problem.


And: Nothing for me today :A

 

[kennah]

Let's use The Witcher 2 as an example.

Community deal is 60% off IF it gets voted.

Is there a chance that it'll get a daily deal down the road that would be cheaper than that?

We don't know! Everything is topsy turvy!

 

[chrisisawesome]

maybe i'll get me some Deus Ex: HR on the flash sale.
Now i just need to get a super long hdmi cable to get from my pc to my living room setup

 

[XeroSauce]

Oh man, these flash deals are going to throw everything out of balance.

 

[The_Monk]

Is Legends of Grimrock a demanding game? I'm amateur when it comes to specs.

 

[Nelo Ice]

Why fucked up? More sales = more win?

I mean fucked up as in it's cruel that now we have no idea if flash sales are better and we may end up spending more lol.

 

[Ocho]

Flash deals are messing with my mind. Will budge on Deus Ex, can't go cheaper than 75%...

 

[Pancakes]

All praise to Gaben!

 

[Falxix]

What is this badges that people are talking about?

Check your profile page.

 

[PaulLFC]

Shogun 2 says 75% off the franchise, but Fall of the Samurai is only 50% off. I assume they just haven't updated all the deals yet?

 

[chiablo]

Uh oh. Flash deals? Does this throw the Golden Rule of Steam Sales into question?

I think it's their way of ensuring you stay on the site as much as possible. Along with the 8 hour sales and giving badges away for voting every 8 hours... I know I'll have steampowered open on an internet tab at all times.

I blame that marketing guy for this.

 

[hlhbk]

So now there are flash deals what do we do?

 

[Train of Midnight]

You guys need to stop spamming the site to I can buy Grimrock!

 

[Nemesis121]

lol can't even add Portal 2 to my cart...

 

[kaskade]

I'm overwhelmed with deals. This is fucked up.

 

[Oreoleo]

I feel nothing.

 

[Firebrand]

No achievement hunting? Aw.

Also, what's this about badges? EDIT: Ah.

 

[ShaneB]

So the daily deals apparently last 36 hours? Am I the only one seeing this?
