Now of course this is just my opinion, but does anyone else feel like Steam sales are no longer the best seasonal sales around? I can remember several years ago, Steam Winter and Summer sales we the best things in the world, when it came to buying games. I'd be buying two or three games a day for absurdly low prices. The past couple years, however, I've found myself buying maybe two or three games over the course of the entire sale. Instead, I've been finding that the best games and deals have been on Green Man Gaming and GOG (such as the flash sales currently taking place on GOG, until December 15), but neither site gets anywhere near as much attention as Steam.
Granted, this is all opinion and maybe you still think Steam is still the supreme champion of seasonal sales, but these other sites have sales that, at the very least, are enough to give Steam a run for their money, and yet are rarely mentioned. Certainly not to the extent Steam is. Why do you think Steam sales are still pretty much the only ones people constantly make a big deal of, when so many other good alternatives are available now?
