The tickets are up, Super Meat boy is one today. And my reign of ticket collecting comes to a close. :)

At least the rest seem easy.

I'm not really feeling today's deals either. I'll probably get Darksiders at that price, but that's it. I kinda want Resident Evil 5 but $15 is still too much.

Well, almost forgot to make some last minute purchases for today, tried to check out and Steam appeared to lock up for a good 2 minutes. Then it finally completed the transaction. Glad I didn't kill the process like Windows suggested. In three minutes the site will rendered unusable for a while.

Valve's making money hand over fist, they need to buy some more fucking servers pronto. This is inexcusable.

To be fair, this is the first sale in which there's been noticeable strain. In this case they clearly underestimated demand.

Valve have recently announced that they're overhauling the network backend of Steam, so hopefully future sales should sail more smoothly.

Nothing I want that I don't already have. And this time, I'm sure about that. I said that yesterday and then bought two things. That won't happen today.

The new one will be out soon enough, I guess if you haven't played the series then it's worth checking out.

Fucking AU store not updated. But, by the looks of things from CC=US there's nothing of worth for me today either.

Are the sales worse this year or is it just that I own all the games already?

I already own HL2E2 (been gifted by a nice person) but what about HL,HL2 and HL2E1. Might they get cheaper too. It's just because I own the orange box on xbox but would really like to have them on steam. Should I buy for this price? (I have seen HL for 2.- at some steam sale so I don't know).

Hoard for 70 percent off is a steal. Game is awesome.

Oh and hey look another 50 percent off sale for RE5, boring Capcom. :p
