Steam Summer Sale Goes Live

[Jiffex]

If I buy the 2K bundle and already own Borderlands, will I get an extra copy to give to someone else?

yes, you get that. I had it happen to me a few times where I would get extra copies. I can gift those to others if I so pleased.

Also, what's this about badges and where can I see them?

 

[WorriedSandwich]

Already bought SpaceChem for me and a friend, and planning to shove Portal 1 & 2 in the face of another.

Waiting for Quantum Conondrum, Tiny & Big: Grandpa's Leftovers, Mirror's Edge and maybe Dear Esther to go on sale in the coming week.

EDIT: the Valve store (for t-shirts, mugs, etc.) also has various items on summer sale, but it's mostly 10% so not really worth it if you weren't interested in them beforehand.

If you listen closely, you can hear EA folks sobbing in fetal position whilst crying "They're doing it wrong!".

Made my day.

I was just starting to wonder if we were going to get a summer sale.
This is like bringing the Mexico, hookers and blow to my rent money.

Crap now my daughter is going to get flooded with cheap steam games as soon as the server gets past the customers doing a DNS attack lol.

Portal 2 for her first since she never played it yet.

You mean a Distributed Denial of Service attack or DDoS.

DNS is the Domain Name System which allows you to navigate the internet using textual web addresses (domain names) instead of numerical IP addresses.

Yes Thanks for correcting me. I thought it didnt look right after I posted it. I will use the excuse of I just finished a beer and i am tired... yeah that works lol.

heres a pic of a squirrel to distract everyone from my derp moment lol...

 

[Easton Dark]

Nothing worth it on day 1 that I don't have. Pfeh.

Day 2, I'm waiting for you.

 

[srpilha]

ok right this is personal.

my WHOLE wishlist is like 50 or 75% off.

duuuuuuuuuude I'm forked

 

[WorriedSandwich]

Can anyone tell me when a day ends and a new one starts? I remember them having a live countdown at the top of the page in previous years (like the flash deals have now).

EDIT: also, the featured item list are ALL the super-discounted games for that day right? I don't need to click or search for more? Not that this isn't enough, but I just don't want to miss out on anything.

 

[ZeroMachine]

... Ok.

I'm new to the whole "Steam Sale" thing.

I've been buying things over the past few weeks. Nothing huge, for the most part. But I thought "hey, some cool deals, I don't see why everyone hate-loved the Summer Sale".

AND THEN THIS.

Fuck you, Steam. Fuck you.

Gently.

Exactly the way you like it.

 

[Dendio]

I want sims 3 deals but it looks like EA products wont be part of the summer sales...maybe due to origin?

 

[The Human Torch]

Well that seems simple.
Thanks man, that may very well decide if I get it now.

Captcha: Stop wasting time
How very relevant.

Gotham City needs you, hero.

 

[Lancer873]

And right off the bat Rayman: Origins is 50% off. Been waiting all damn summer for that. I love you, Steam. ^-^

 

[Comic Sans]

When you go for checkout it should tell you if you will get an extra copy. You don't always.

 

[maximalist566]

I'll just leave it here.

 

[Doclector]

Luckily, I am protected by my level 11 cloak of crap PC.

For now. When they bring more retro titles on sale, then I might be a little screwed.

 

[hooksashands]

Sonuvabitch!

I bought Terraria last week for $10.00 and now it's $2.50...

 

[Doneeee]

Ah my first summer sale! I've been awaiting this for a while. Well time to finally pick up fallout 3 goty.

 

[idarkphoenixi]

Seems relevant:


Pity that theres nothing I actually care about...Maybe Saints Row 3 since it was voting for the 75% off deal

 

[Rednog]

Sonuvabitch!

I bought Terraria last week for $10.00 and now it's $2.50...

Rule of thumb that everyone should live by, never buy any PC game at least a month or so before the summer and winter sale.
