Topic: The Unofficial Steam Sales Thread

2. Orcs Must Die! 2
3. Alan Wake
4. Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind
5. Dead Pixels
6. Hero Academy
7. Battlefield 2
8. Half Life
9. Scribblenauts Unlimited
10. Elven Legacy
11. Lost Planet: Extreme Condition - Colonies Edition
12. Star Wars Battlefront 2 (I bought it for PS2 twice and I plan on getting it for PC eventually)
13. Dungeon Siege III
14. Batman Arkham City: Nightwing Bundle
15. FTL: Faster Than Light

I've been wondering about Ys Origins too, but I really hated The Ark of Napishtim. Maybe if it gets cheaper, I'll take a chance on it.

Alan Wake

Alan Wake and Witcher 2 were both $7.50 and DRM-free yesterday during the End of the World sales event at http://www.gog.com/. Makes me wish I didn't get them from Steam. I'm sure some gamers would rather have the achievements though.

Same here, but the original was more fun and balanced. I felt the sequel over did it with the Jedi.

FTL: Faster Than Light

I was this close to picking up FTL during that gog sale yesterday. But I decided to wait and see if it hits the humble bundle.

The Steam Christmas sale started today.
http://store.steampowered.com/
I'm considering Hard Reset which is 75% off right now. It looks like it could be cool, but it's a throwback to old school shooters like Doom. I was never that into Doom.

The Holiday Sale is on.
Day 1 and I've already bought Batman Arkham Asylum and The Secret of Monkey Island Collection.
I just can't help myself.

I really hope some of these deals come back. I want to get Torchlight 2 and Orcs Must Die 2, but I won't have money until after Christmas.

If you wish hard enough it just may come true.

Although as creator of this thread and thus complete endorser of Steam, I would recommend all of us to check out the excellent Amazon Digital Holiday Sale thread on Reddit. There are some great deals which are partially superior to what Steam is doing.

I decided to go for Ys Origins and some DLC for Deus Ex Human Revolution so far. I skipped on the I Am Alive deal, I'm just not feeling up to playing a post apocalyptic survivor right now (seeing as how the world didn't end).

@V8_Ninja Nothing wrong with shopping around.

I also grabbed Ys Origins — for $5 you can't go wrong! I'll probably end up picking up a few other games before the sale's done.

Are these games any good?:

Gemini Wars
Magical Drop V
Dear Esther
Endless Space
Legend of Grimrock
FTL: Faster Than Light

I want to get them all, since they all look interesting, but I won't have much money left afterwords...

I haven't played any of them, but Legend of Grimrock is in the latest Humble Bundle: http://www.humblebundle.com/
So you may want to consider buying it there.

I think Blockland deserves to be on Steam.It would sell better then.

There's never been a better time to play Binary Domain than now. It's a fun game if you're into cover shooters and Blade Runner.

Does anyone want my extra copy of Dawn of War GOTY from my THQ bundle? I also have a couple copies of Dota 2 if anyone wants them,

I'd like the extra copy ID: TheInstantGamer
I've also got like 4 free copies of Dota 2 so if anyone wants them just ask

I would LOVE a copy of DOTA 2 if you still have one. My STEAM id is ucf_knight.

I'm building a decent PC next week, so I've already spent way too much this sale.. lol

Is there a thread for Steam IDs or is this kind of the 'everything steam-related' thread?

@AlexSays Yeah, this has turned into the "Everything Steam-Related" thread. You could also add your Steam community profile URL to you signature, as you still have plenty of characters left.

Hah, I should hope I have plenty of characters. I don't believe I've ever updated my signature.

Thanks though, I'll likely do that then in case anyone would like to add me.

@AlexSays You can also put your Steam ID in the "Games" section of your "Edit Profile" page...although I noticed the spacing issue is still present >:[

UCF is a great school. Don't know much about FIU, but Miami sure sounds like a fun place to live.

Thanks, I didn't even know that option was there.. lol

It's weird though, my Steam ID has the underscore, but the link only works without the underscore. Guessing that's the error you're referring to?

I picked up the new Worms game, amongst other things, and my copy is broken. I feel cheated.
Other games I bought: Half Life 2, Garry's Mod, and The Binding of Isaac.
