Steam Goes Mad With Gargantuan Holiday Sale of 2010

[Moriarty]

guys, DONT BUY ANYTHING IF IT ISN'T IN THE DAILY DEALS.

it's going to get even cheaper some day during the sales.

I would love to buy all sorts of stuff if it would just accept my credit card for once.

Valve says "Don't worry about buying Christmas presents, just buy yourself shit."

Question: Why is Activision so tight-arsed? I don't think I've ever seen an Activision game go on sale on Steam, not to mention that their titles are the most expensive and never seem to go down in price. Now in this Christmas sale Activision is conspiculously absent. Not that I care, sales for other developers will go through the roof and Activision will be left wondering why their Christmas coffers aren't as packed as they're used to.

"Bah, Humbug!"

On the sale, haven't found anything I want to buy yet but it all is very generous.

Well, last summer sale I bought the Call of Duty collection for $30 and it included every single COD up to World at War and no, I've yet to see MW2 and Blops on a similar sale... ever...

Also: THIS

Meh, doesn't look too interesting to me-HOLY SHIT ITS STRANGER'S WRATH HDJISNFGOWNGNG!!!

First thing I've noticed is that the Telltale pack is missing the final episode of Sam and Max. I think I'll wait and see if that gets fixed, because VERY WANT.

Did you get Prince of Persia pack? If yes I highly suggest avoiding Prince of Persia unless you are looking forward to a ridiculously unchallenging casual gaming experience. The fights in that game are an utter joke.

I love Steam for this. I've just bought myself 7 games, almost enough to last me through the entire holidays on one game a day!

 

[wildpeaks]

Why does my money always vanish after a steam sale?

I always wonder that too

Yeah, same for me. Sucks hard. >.>

Oh, so many games, so tempting if I could just buy any of them...

(...won't mention she couldn't even finish the tutorial level...) ok so my coordination sucks: back when it was 2d it was fine, but all the ones after Sands of Time, I just couldn't get the hang of them for some reason, always failing the two-walls movement x_x

I NEED TO BE SAVING FOR DRAGON AGE 2 FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! WHY, VALVE, WHY?!?

Well the remake has a menagerie of problems one of thing I found hard to get the hang of is when you hit something like jump again in mid jump. If that happens as soon as you land or grab onto something the game continues with the action you put in and you die. Very bad game design due to imprecise commands.

Oddbox.

I think I just had an oddgasm.

Sadly, it's pretty difficult since my connection is literally running at the speed of a 28.8k modem...

 

[Joshimodo]

Super Meat Boy at £3? Me=Pissed. Brought it last week for £11~.

 

[E-Penguin]

THIS IS AMAZING!

WHY AM I BROKE???

WHY AM I NOT USING CAPS LOCK???

 

[DSK-]

Props and much love to Combined for gifting me a game <3 you, Sir, are awesome. That is all.

OT: I was actually tempted to buy a few things in this sale.

 

[Knusper]

This is going to be one hell of a Christmas!

I was going to get my older brother a really rubbish present, but now... now there's so much choice!

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

Steam is really becoming the DFS of sales (UK joke)

 

[thenumberthirteen]

Turns out I have enough games already. I'm not tempted. Wow... Looks like I'll survive this one after all.

For today at least...

Is it wrong I found this funny? Also:

Exactly my thoughts. Check to see if there was anything I wanted (not expecting anything) and there is was. I'm so happy.
