Do you really think the iD pack will be discounted by more than 85%? And if it is, it wouldn't be by much, and I don't know if it would be worth the wait.

If you are not going to play right away: wait, there's absolutely nothing to lose.

Im not saying its gonna be cheaper, im saying you might wanna keep your money for other daily stuff

What's that? Buy the packs now?! OUT OF MY WAY, I HAVE MONEY TO SPEND!

Bloodlines is the only thing I'm really, really hoping shows up, but I'm not expecting it to. : (

The Mawesome Pack is $2.99 (on sale). I highly doubt it will go any further, would you agree?

Hey. GAF, Hey.

HEY.

Oblivion GOTY or MOH:BF3Beta Edition?

If Oblivion, GOTY or Deluxe? Is Deluxe worth the extra £1.70? I've heard that something called "_________ Razor" is worth it on its own?

Hey. GAF, Hey.

Misleading, the packs are about more than 1 or 2 games, buy them if you want.

Odd, Sword & Soldiers achievement (for the ticket) seems to be bugged. I finished level 3 and killed everyone and earned the level 8 achievement for the Chinese campaign.

Whoops.

I broke the rules and bought dreamfall+longest journey pack. I really can't see it going for much less than $6 but if it does then oh well I can live with a couple buck loss.

gonna be shocked if bloodlines goes cheaper, and furious if it somehow goes back up.

lead and gold - worth the price of a snickers bar? i dont do FPS very often, but westerns are cool.

what?

how is it misleading?

of course you should do what you want, im just giving advice. There's no need to buy the packs until the last day. We dont know what's coming so you should keep some money.

It's good fun, but the community is really small, most of the time.

But if you buy it, I will do the headshot ticket with you..heh.

Yeah that was the one I bit on too.

I'm not even going to feel bad for getting all those games for 30 bucks if it goes on sale for...what? 27 or 28 bucks?

Also grabbed The Witcher 2 and Oblivion GOTY Deluxe.

What's the over/under on the first Witcher going on sale? Have there been many occasions where a sequel and the original are both daily sales?

The hell with all you Bloodlines squatters; I bought it three weeks ago and didn't regret it.

If it shows up as a sale I'm going to find every one of you and murder you :(

For the Toki Tori sunbeams:
So far I've found them in:
1-6 normal
1-8 normal
1-11 normal
1-1 hard
1-3 hard
1-4 hard
1-5 hard
1-6 hard
1-7 hard

They just look like a column of light! No idea where the 10th one is, and I've only actually stood in the first four beams so far.

edit: And it's $1.24?? Anyone who's ever enjoyed a puzzle game and somehow doesn't already own this - buy it!

Yeah, handful of people on my list have said the same thing (ticket is bugged). Might as well do it though.

It's misleading because the packs themselves are not going to show up as a daily deal, that is for individual games.

If your talking about say doom 3 getting slight discounted more as a daily, and therefore reflecting it overall in the pack by a couple of dollars, meh.

So do the prize booth prizes expire at the end of the day too? I want that new X3 sector but I don't want to buy and play enough stuff to get three tickets today.

I'm being stupid and not saving my money for better sales, but I'm considering MoH for the single player. I feel like I'm in the mood for a decent FPS campaign. I don't think I'd ever touch the MP, though.

I instantly knew that the sale had begun as soon as I started up Steam; the web site's servers were swamped and a bunch of updates started to download. Classic signs of a major sale. Oh well, Back to the Future and Bit.Trip Runner are on my list, and Lead and Gold looks too good to pass up.

The Hacker Evolution games are already 75% off, but I'll see if they go further with a daily deal.
