2011 Steam Holiday Sale DEAD!

[maniacalpha1-1]

Are you really going to wait a year to save a few bucks? You could be dead by then.

I basically have $20-$25 left...and even if I miss out on something like FNV, I have plenty of $10 or less games sitting on the wishlist that I can get on the last day that may be great, like Dark Fall Lost Souls, Beyond Good and Evil, Scratches, Post Mortem. I also keep wanting to get Dracula:Origin and A Stroke of Fate: Operation Valkyrie.

This reminds me : What do you guys think of Haunted: Hell's Reach and Hunted: The Demon's Forge?

Just be aware that crafting your coals now or any achievement will only create Valve-based rewards. This means you will only get Valve games or Valve coupons.

I didn't notice this at first, but it says it on the achievement page (on and after 12/31).

Anyone get or know someone that has gotten one of the golden tickets?

 

[maniacalpha1-1]

I got a golden Valve 50% off. That was like in the first 3 days of the sale.

Considering I have been buying valve games since the late 1990s, and I already have all valve games except day of defeat source and half-life source, Valve coupons are useless to me.

The coupons expire in March. Valve releases the majority of their games in November.

I do not see using the coupons to buy anything in the near future.

If the coupons never expired, then that would be great. But since they expire in three months, they are nothing but pixels on a monitor.

Laaaaaaaaaaaaame!

I was planning to do some achievements today in the hopes of getting Saints Row 3 or some cool prize.

Just noticed that the last day's Daily Deals are already active. Or at least Skyrim, Shogun: Total War 2 and Deus Ex: Human Revolution are. Maybe others.

Must be a recap day then, as those were all on sale before.

 

[Phynaz]

Yep, recap day it looks like.

Edit: "Encore Day"

 

[Phynaz]

Man, Steam is getting hammered again. Can't even get to Community.

 

[Barfo]

Did another achievement and got a 33% off Valve games

They should give coal only now that the worthy gifts are over, nobody wants those lousy Valve coupons.

kthxbye Steam Sale.

 

[Soccerman06]

Hah to all of you that bought LA noire a few days ago, its even cheaper now!

 

[Phynaz]

Now that the sale is basically over, let's all thank KaOTiK for the awesome job he has done keeping us all up to date!

 

[IGemini]

Last day of the Steam holiday sale has always been a "best of" lineup. If you missed Skyrim the first time around, now's the time to get it.

No way! he must be a secret agent sent from Valve to part us from our hard earned money :twisted:

I crafted coals a few days ago and got 33% off Game of Thrones.




In other news, anyone want to trade for a 33% off Game of Thrones coupon?

Thanks Phynaz, I appreciate it. Glad you and others found it helpful and thanks again for that piece of coal

Must resist! Maybe I will get lucky and my Visa will be rejected.

My wife is going to kill me LOL

What the heck is that? I use Steam but never heard the term used in the game before.

 

[CPA]

Okay, IF, and that's a big IF, I should get something today, should it be:

Skyrim
Batman: AC
LA Noire
Saint's Row III
Dues EX HR
Portal II
AC Brotherhood
AC Revelations

I'm not particular to any genre.

 

[maniacalpha1-1]

Removed - got takers for free stuff

 

[Barfo]

Is there a way to delete coupons? If not, anyone want to take some off my hands? I have 2 killing floor passes, 1 copy of The Ship, regular Valve 50%, 50% SteelStorm Burning Retribution 4 pack, 75% Garry's Mod, 50% Alien Breed 3, 66% Prototype I can give away.

I'll take The Ship
