can't find another thread about this, thought there'd be one by now but yeah

Steam Summer Sale is on, new deals each day through July 22nd.

http://store.steampowered.com/

Shows todays deals, and yesterdays deals for so much longer

I think it's 6PM BST every day it gets updated with new offers (daily offers)

There's also flash sales which usually has a few at for a shorter period of time, and a community choice where you vote for which of the 3 options you want, also changes every 8 hours!

There's also a pack deal for complete packs (e.g. Bethesda which is brink, doom, fallout, etc... Rockstar containing LA NOire, Max Payne, episodes from libery city and GTA IV, and so on)

Anyone bought anything yet?

I've been looking at a few but so far only bought Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2.

http://www.steamgamesales.com/ - Shows all deals for items, some older than a day and not specifically the summer sale (i.e. has ones from a month ago im sure)

http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2799277 - Shows some other deals.

Was thinking of getting Skyrim, but could get it for free on xbox so not sure :P

Any suggestions?

or what are you buying? :P

If my steam was working I'd have bought something...

Looking at the list I think I'm going to get Trine (played it on my mate's laptop and LOVED it, but don't have it), possibly anno...

All of the cheaper ones are a possiblity tbh, wanted Orcs Must Die, Super Meat Boy and the Binding of Isaac forever :l

scottish
14-07-2012, 06:57 PM
Skyrim
Dead Island
Orcs Must Die!
Dirt Showdown
Tropico 4
Two Worlds II
Borderlands
Frozen Synapse
Indie Bundle (Bunch of Heroes, BIT.TRIP:BEAT, Braid, Runespell: Overture, Insanely Twisted Shadow)

is todays daily deals

They mainly indie games you buying? I looked at anno just seems like a sims type of game doesn't it?

lawrawrrr
14-07-2012, 07:02 PM

Rule number one of the steam sales :P Don't buy any of the games in the non-daily/flash sale until the last day of the sale as you might find you could of saved even more money if it were to go on daily/flash sale as some point.

Steam sales are an annoying time for me, a combination of insane deals and plenty of disposable income, it's hard not to just buy everything that I want as soon as it pops up, I've got quite a few things so far, I expect the list to grow quite a bit more on the last day when I pick up some games while they're still on sale

The Binding of Isaac Wrath of the Lamb DLC
Deus Ex Invisible War
Legend of Grimroc
All of the Orcs Must Die DLC
Toy Soldiers
Bioshock 2
Dark Messiah Might & Magic
Harvest Massive Encounter
Some Killing Floor DLC
Mount & Blade With Fire and Sword and Warband
Red Faction Guerrilla
Dungeon Defenders Quest for the Lost Eternia Shards pack and some character
Train Sim 2012
Just Cause 2 with all the DLC

Yea I'm a big fan of Burnout Paradise, I have it on 360 and PS3 already, and I got it on Origin ages ago for free but I prefer Steam so I decided to pick it up while it was cheap, I didn't bother with NFS:HP since I didn't really enjoy it that much but it was a decent game, not expecting to spend much more unless they do something real awesome tomorrow.

If you don't have Just Cause 2 or haven't played Just Cause 2 but have any interest in Just Cause 2 or general open world awesomeness, then buy the crap out of that game!

It's very hard to find a reason to regret it, I got it for Steam despite getting it on 360 recently.
