Everyday Genius: Square Logic seems to have been removed from the store.

No Telltale Complete Pack this year.

Where's that Stardock pack that got leaked before? No sign of that either

I will say this. I feel bad for the people at Valve that have to stay up all night changing the deals.

computers

do you really think there's a guy ther watching the countdown and pushing a button THE SECOND a new deal goes up?

I mean there's obviously people around for mantainance in case everything goes bad, but I seriously doubt someone has the job you described

I assure you that stuff is automatic the only reason those people are staying up is to count their money.

Working in IT I can garuntee you someone is up when the deal changes to make sure nothing goes wrong.

No, there's a person checking everything is ok, imagine there's an error, and a game goes 99% off or something like that....

[Apdiddy]

Only got SpaceChem, Back To The Future: The Game & Legend of Grimrock on my first day. Two friends of mine gifted me Ys: Oath in Felghana, Orcs Must Die! & Chantelise. Will more than likely sit out the rest of the sale save for Ys Origins being a flash/daily deal. I already got everything else I wanted during midweek/weekend deals leading up to it.

Not bad I guess for a first time Steam sale watcher.

 

[Cloudius12]

Wich is pretty damn stupid if you want an answer to something that's been asked a million times. OP is big and keeps updated for a reason. Im gonna keep posting that every time someone does that to educate them to pay fuckin attention when someone takes the work to do that, instead of spamming the thread.

Indeed.

Since my connection is slow, I just bookmarked the OP as a single post, so I don't have to load up all those GIF on the first page.

 

[misterF]

You need to do some tweaking to be able to play it. Apparently the game doubles or triples it's speed if you have a dual core processor, so you gotta limit your PC to be running on one to run the game at its original intended speed.

That + some resolution thing and other stuff. If you're really eager to play it then go for it, base game has aged well, but yeah it has all those issues (and that's why we have GOG for older games)

Thanks for the info! Think I'll get it on GOG, never mind if it's more expensive.

 

[Infinite Justice]

Did someone fuck up on the STALKER deal?

first the 2 "sequels" were lower priced before then they got bumped up and even now the collection price is higher than the normal price

I mentioned that! I just dont think that anyone pushes a button themselves, rather just check if anything goes haywire

Well there is that giant valve in their office maybe somebody is turning it each time?

This isn't PSN

 

[Calavera520]

so anyone clear on flash deals vs. daily deals. could we see daily deals show up again in flash and vice versa, and if so potentially deeper discounts in one or the other?

 

[Fantastical]

Originally thought I was going to buy the Valve complete pack because I'm new to PC gaming, but after looking through it all I really want are Half-Life games and Portal games and I already own Portal and Half-Life, so it's not really worth getting the other games.

So that saves me some money...

 

[Dingotech]

Nobody knows yet!! Scary stuff

 

[DreadPirateRoberts]

Came into the sale with a $50 budget, I'm already down to $23. I don't think I'm going to make it.

It's a secret.

 

[Misguided]

Bit the bullet for Rayman Origins (holy shit beautiful), Offspring Fling, Penumbra Pack, and Terraria. My first Steam sale where I have money to spend, so good!

 

[LobLob]

going up to gamestop tomorrow to sell some old games for dat glorious steam monayyy

You and me both brother *INTERNET HIGH FIVE*.


Hey guys, anyone who has played ChoplifterHD, can you play with keyboard and mouse just fine or is a gamepad needed?

 

[Buttonbasher]

going up to gamestop tomorrow to sell some old games for dat glorious steam monayyy

I'd make a joke about you only getting a couple of bucks in return, but with the Steam sale a couple of bucks can net you some pretty good games.

 

[Hagi]

I'm in the same situation but all i want out of it is Left for Dead 2.

 

[Artofwar420]

Any word on Crusader Kings II?

 

[LobLob]

Came into the sale with a $50 budget, I'm already down to $23. I don't think I'm going to make it.

You know you are going to spend more, i said i would only spend 50 dollars and between these steam summer sales and other daily deals/weekend deals previously im done to only 19 dollars in my steam wallet, im going to trade in games tomorrow for more wallet money.

 

[Retne]

18 minutes to go before we get a look at 2 more flash deals! I love this. It gives me something to check as I browse the internet.

 

[QuantumBro]

I might do the same since there's a 30% bonus if you trade in games for steam cards right now.

 

[anddo0]

No Steam achievements for Rayman Origins?

 

[Salsa]

18 minutes to go before we get a look at 2 more flash deals! I love this. It gives me something to check as I browse the internet.

The real challenge here is staying up for Trine 2 since I just know im gonna miss it otherwise

poll winner lasts 8 hours right?

No Steam achievements for Rayman Origins?

sadly no but at least you get what's pretty much a DRM free version. No Ubiplay for some (glorious) reason.

 

[LobLob]

You do know that Gamestop is giving a 30 percent trade in bonus on your games if you are buying a steam voucher from them yes? Good deal is good.

 

[toddhunter]

Any word on Crusader Kings II?

Buy it for the game of thrones mod if you like the books/series. Otherwise watch a lets play on youtube as it is a complex but great game.

 

[JaseC]

I'm in the same situation but all i want out of it is Left for Dead 2.

Valve games are always Dailies.

If Trine 2 wins, it is posted as a deal 30 minutes after winning yes? If so, im staying up for that.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

So what are the chances of Morrowind GOTY being a daily/flash?

 

[Salsa]

If Trine 2 wins, it is posted as a deal 30 minutes after winning yes?

oh jesus fuckin christ I forgot about the extra half hour

Valve games are always Dailies.

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Fifteen minutes... fuck this Steam sale, it's like waiting for 10AM multiple times a day at staggered intervals.

 

[Exuro]

These flash sales are evil. 15 minutes until two new ones appear.
