*** OFFICIAL Steam Games Deals Thread ***

Probably because you had NotEnoughMinerals

Just wait in 2012 advanced games will also cost Vespine.

 

You mean Vespene.

 

Ever since they reduced my mining trips from 8 to 5 minerals and stopped letting my gather from depleted geysers.... times have been tough

 

It's not that tough You'll get used to it somehow

 

At least they let me start with more SCVs!

 

not to mention the MULE's. they should help out.

 

Muahahahaha, harvest my mechanical creation!

 

Don't ever work for Vicious. He straps dynamites at you

 

....he told me those were just for show... he promised me candy if i didn't tell anyone!

 

civ V for 25% off. I know some of you were looking for a civ V sale.

 

... Dammit. I was hoping it would either be more than that or at least not happen until next week. :/ I guess I have to get it full price, then...

 

I'd suggest waiting. If you plan to play multiplayer, wait. It's totally broken right now. The singleplayer is decent, but after two major patches, there are still plenty of issues...

 

With Civ it's usually better to wait until the second expansion comes out.

Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of patience.

 

I want this game because I played the demo. Now, I'm getting it and that's final!

 

no dont disclose the secret!

 

Yeah I didn't either. And yet I haven't played a game in two months!

Your choice of course

 

u guys think there will be worms with more than 50% discount?

 

Let me know how it plays, if you could. Seeing as how we have nearly the same laptop, I'll go off what you say in regards to my expectations

 

Or you could try the demo yourself.

 

That would also work.

 

I just thought I'd check back in after I asked about running Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic on Windows 7 x64. I am happy to report that I have been able to run KOTOR fine on my ThinkPad x200. The game has crashed a few times after playing a movie cutscene, but it's been pretty smooth for the most part. The lack of widescreen support is a bit of a downer, but it was definitely worth the $2.50 spent during the Steam sales from Black Friday weekend. So if anyone has the same concerns I had about playing on Windows 7 64-bit, here's another vote of confidence.

 

That game was absolutely amazing. I stayed up for nights straight playing it after I got it for the Xbox.

 

what do u think the chances of civ 5 being cheaper during their christmas/boxing week sale is?

 

I think Civ V will either be cheaper or on sale for 25% off again during christmas so I'm going to wait.

 

Today I completed my 10 objectives without buying anything. Nice. Even though I'm unlikely to win, it was fun.

Oh, and Empire: Total War and Flight Control HD are 50% off today.

 

I'll be doing that soon as well. I need to play two more demos.

 

Have all 10 that I need. I bought Just Cause 2 because I've been wanting that one. and a couple of the indie games that looked fun to me. Just log in monday and I'm good. Of course I'll also need to resist the urge to buy everything in sight when I log on.

 

Yeah I logged on today to realize I had already done the last two objectives I needed to do. I was expecting to have to spend $2.50 or something today to get the final objective. Totally awesome!

 

Today's the big day! I'm not sure if I have all ten, though, since the "Overachiever" objective keeps glitching.

I wonder what the first set of Christmas deals will be...

 

Spoiler

The first deal should be a low introductory APR exclusive Steam credit card... No minimum, No maximum, No annual fee.

Spoiler

The last deal should be a cheap lawyer service to handle your bankruptcy claim...

 

lol. Yeah, that sounds about right.

 

Any ideas when the sale kicks off?

 

I'm guessing tomorrow or possibly even later today.

 

I have all ten things and I just logged in so I'm qualified for the 100 games. what I could do with 100 games....

 

I just wish you could save some of the 100 games for upcoming games, but I'm not going to turn it down if I win.

 

I just hope they are some newer games that go up on sale.

 

Giant EA sale today.

 

the store went offline when I tried taking a look at the specials, I did see bc2 for 10 bux.

 

Look at the specials!
90% and 80% off!

 

*yells out tons of curses*

WHY MUST BFBC2 GO ON SALE THE DAY BEFORE I HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY IT!?!

*cries*

Oh, and Civ 5, AND ME1&2. Just my luck... Maybe these sales will last all week?? Please???

 

lol you know most of these deals will go on till the end of the deals right?

Not very interested in these packs. Already have most of the games in them.

 

Im having trouble loading the specials, I can only see the first games display, thats bs, Ill take a look later...

hmm I think Ill grab commandos collection, 3 bux for the 3 games(including first expansion)

 

It's about 1014 games on special.

Enjoy.

 

i think im going to spend at least ~100 dollars this time around, the sales are pretty good. the FEAR pack (DLC and everything) for 9.99, and the developer complete packs for around 75~

 

Oh man, Ill need some good suggestions to what to get as I dont wanna go bankrupt...

 

Every time I look at a pack I get sad because I have games in them already and buying the pack wouldn't be a good deal.

 

When I click view all deals, it says nothing was found.

 

Probably an error on their part but there are over a thousand games on sale Just type in the name of a game you've been eyeing on and see if it's on sale

 

Here's a PROTIP:

Don't impulsively buy everything right now.

Wait till the last day to buy the games in case anything goes on the daily deal.

 

lol the steam store is getting raped, it's loading slower than usual

hahaha

@Bearclaw good tip, and I personally found out that if the game is on sale and below 10 dollars, then the game/pack can't get any lower.
