**OFFICIAL** Steam Xmas sale is LIVE thread (and in progress)

[Powermoloch]

bought overlord and king arthur...too cheap to pass up

Just a warning on Battlefield 2. I'm having massive CD key issues. It's pretty annoying. It's not a DRM issue per se, but more of how Steam handles third party CD keys I believe.

Basically the game keeps telling me that my CD-Key invalid and I can't join any servers. Need to figure out a fix

Id watch out for punkbuster as well

 

[zinfamous]

That's exactly what I was alluding to. You like, totally get me. /swoon

thanks to A Casual Fitz for recommending PB Winterbottom

if you liked braid, or even if you didn't, pick it up! it's only 50 cents and it's really fun

Hehe it's a great find. Stupid Steam didn't even advertise it being so cheap...

Buy Fallout New Vegas people. Obsidian deserves it for this fantasTIK RPG that blows Fallout 3 out of the water. The storyline is over the top and head and shoulders above Fallout 3's. The companions alone are worth a look. The world is alive and the game is patched. Then there's the unlimited mods.

Just buy it. Its my GOTY.

I'm going to pass on Claptrap considering I bought Borderlands and all its DLC this summer and still haven't played it. hehe.

Might just wait for Torchlight 2 and/or Diablo 3.

Sounds just like what people were saying about Fallout 3 but people are saying it has the exact same problems as Fallout 3.

Dammit, why isn't the Borderlands DLC pack not on sale? Everything else Borderlands is.

I got the base game back during the Thanksgiving sales and was hoping to get all of the DLC during the Xmas sales. Now, I can essentially get the GOTY version for almost as cheap as buying each DLC individually.

 

[biostud]

Bought King Arthur complete, seems like a good game for the price.

 

[Modular]

Picked up Falllout: New Vegas. I'm pretty excited to break into it over the next couple of days!

 

[damocles]

Here in China, Saints Row 2 is showing as being reduced from US399.00 to US49.99.

Bargain

Not

I just picked up ArmA2: Operation Arrowhead up from Amazon. (Thank you SS for the gift card.) It should show up on Steam today at a ridiculously low price due to my actions.

I fell on my sword for you guys. Merry Christmas!

 

[RavenSEAL]

New sale in 30 minutes!

 

[Phynaz]

One minute to go and I'm really torn on Borderlands. I want it, but I've spent so much.

 

[Firsttime]

Holy shit a MW2 sale. I thought I would die before that happened. I'm in for Dragon Age Ultimate. That's what I really wanted out of this sale.

Quick! Play it so I know if I should buy it!

 

[Phynaz]

Crap. Dragon Age. Not in the budget. Getting the Monkey Island bundle though.

 

[tokie]

Nothing good today.

 

[RavenSEAL]

Flatout looks good for a dollar...:hmm:

Picked up Batman AA and Dragon Age: Origins.

 

[RavenSEAL]

Nothing good today.

Nothing good?

Batman AA
Dragon Age
Red Faction
MW2
Splinter Cell
CivV

Unless you've played all of those...you must be very close minded about game genres.

 

[TheUnk]

Civ5 sale is not a very good sale. Maybe next year.

 

[mingsoup]

On the fence about Dragon Age. Also *might* get Modern Warfare 2. But then I'd be bending over for Activision.

Buy Civ 5. Buy Fallout NV. (period)

I'd say the campaign is worth it if you're on the edge about it that much, MP might still be playable. But even @ $30....I don't think it's going to get an cheaper :hmm:

 

[RavenSEAL]

Anyone know if DA: Awakenings is worth dropping the extra $10 for the Ultimate Edition?

All the DLC and Awakening for $10 more? That is a no brainer yes there!
