Topic: The Unofficial Steam Sales Thread

Too bad most of those games suck. Universe at War is pretty good, though. Especially for the price. Anyone know if Space Seige is any good? It looks fun, but looks ain't everything.

@Mickeymac While I haven't played the game, I read the 1-UP review and it said that you couldn't move and shoot at the same time. That may change your opinion of the game.

I heard there was a problem with the controls, but it doesn't sound that bad. The potential problems here are the UI and the lack of weapon variety and special skills, as well as the linearity and the lack of AI variety...you know what, screw it. It doesn't sound like it's even worth $5.

Sins of A Solar Empire is on sale on Impulse, if anyone is interested. Thinking of getting it, played the demo, good game. $10

Sins is too slow for my taste. Even for a 4X game. Just lots of waiting for stuff to happen. And the missions the A.I. Guys give you are terribly unfair.

Thought I'd do a bit of a quick update for you guys. We currently have some Neocore games on sale. The games range from above average to slightly below average. Also, the Sega Genesis games were released, all of them starting at the price of $3, which is basically a steal compared to the other prices on the console digital distribution systems.

I think HL2 is $7. I bought Sins on Impulse, it was only $4.

Batman: AA is 50% off, that is $20, now I really wish my computer could run it.

@Ravage Don't forget that the sale is on the "Game of The Year" edition.

EDIT: Also, there's a 50-cent sale on a game called Eversion. I haven't played the game myself, but from what critics have said, the game starts off all bright and colorful and then suddenly has a big shift in tone.

Same, and wish I had the available 20.00 too, but right now I rather spend it on a game that I can actually run.

Accompanying the option to pre-order Fallout: New Vegas on Steam, Bethesda is having a sale on some of their "Game of The Year Edition" games! The sales include being able to get Fallout 3 for $25, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for $8.50, and Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind for $5. With this and that Batman: Arkham Asylum sale going on, I think I'm going to be broke.

I saw they finally dropped the price of Left for dead game the year was more expensive than the second game for a while there, altho enjoyed getting money off altitude and beat hazard in recent months

Yeah pretty much got most of mine in sales

Kinda doubt my MacBook can run it, so hooray free weekend! Might get it anyway for the future, but we'll see I suppose.

I haven't played anything on Steam in quite a while. I have a bunch of games but sold my gaming computer about 2 years ago. My laptop with Intel X3100 graphics card plays very few games well though it's great for most everything else.

Oh my G-d YES! Now I don't have to piiiii...I mean borrow them....from friends. Yeah.

Just as I buy TF2 full price...

Got Elder Scrolls IV Deluxe Edition along with preordering the upcoming Magic the Gathering game. I would have bought Elder Scrolls III GotY Edition but I already have a retail copy of that. $5 is a steal for ESIII and <$9 for IV is ridiculous.

Wow I didn't even see Oblivion and Fallout AND Morrowind.

I need da moneyz.

Thought I'd make this announcement before everybody misses the deal. Crysis and Crysis Warhead are both %50 off for today only as part of the EA week Steam is doing. You an also buy them both for $20 if you get the Crysis Maximum Edition package.
