Firstly, it can be useful if someone is waiting for a specific game to go on sale, even without prices. Secondly, it's not everything. And thirdly, go fuck yourself :)

To his first: Glad to see Dungeon Defenders on the list, gives me hope the DLC will be on sale too since my GF loves that game and $5 for a few skin paks is Fudiculous!

The second: I wish it were :( Other stuff I want that isn't on that list.

And the third: LOL!

If Skyrim and Serious Sam 3 are seriously marked down I will get them.
Otherwise I am happy. Already got everything I want plus a couple I wasnt even sure about.

I'm going to call out fake for this list.

On the Steam forums, the Trine 2 developer confirmed a week or two ago that his game would NOT be part of the Winter 2011 sale. The earliest he said it would be on sale is Spring 2012.

With that said, there are five games I hope make it to the real list that I want (like Skyrim).

Skyrim is definitely on that list, which is interesting. It'll be exciting to see how much it's discounted. (Probably not by much.)

That list includes all games that will be on sale, and not just single items. My guess is Skyrim is mainly going to be on sale through some sort of Bethesda bundle or the like. Individually I can't see more than %20 at this point.

In other news, steam has a big sale at the end of the year, its called the "Holiday Sale".

Without prices, the list is useless. Its common knowledge that just about everything in the steam library is going to be on sale.

Damn no Dead Island or Dungeon Siege 3?
We'll see...

I'm not sure about Dungeon Siege 3, but Dead Island is a Steamworks title, which means a sale on it anywhere is essentially a "Steam sale" for it since the title registers on Steam. I think Green Man Gaming actually has Dead Island on sale right now.

I might be interested in F1 2011, but only if it's really cheap.

I was deeply disappointed by 2010 (F1 2009 for PSP was way better), but I'm holding out hope that they fixed things 2011.

Lame list, if true.

What I want:
F3AR for $20
Dead Island for $20
Rage, Skyrim, L.A. Noir, and MW3 for half off.
DRAGON AGE II BACK ON THE STEAM STORE AND FOR $30

Yeah I'd love to see Skyrim and MW3 at a big discount but I doubt it will end up being more than 25% for Skyrim and 10% or nothing for MW3.

MW games rarely go down in price and with how well Skyrim has been selling, I doubt we'll be getting a price drop until mid next year

Nothing really all that great here.. there are a few games that I have physical copies of that I wouldn't mind adding to Steam cheap (say under 5 bucks).

Steam has been feeding me some small game updates recently. That makes me wonder if we'll see an event similar to the Summer Sale where we could get tickets and redeem them for prizes. Since during the Summer Sale, a game would receive a new achievement that was checked for the ticket.

If you look at Toki Tori, it has an achievement that states "Coming Soon!"

http://steamcommunity.com/stats/TokiTori/achievements

I've received downloads today for...

Team Fortress 2 - No "Coming Soon!" achievements (it did receive the new "Australian Christmas" update)
Dungeon Defenders - No "Coming Soon!" but it does have a new "Jingled All the Way" achievement
Defcon - No "Coming Soon!" but it does have a new "Merry Christmas" achievement
Toki Tori - mentioned above
Frozen Synapse - No "Coming Soon!" but it does have a new "Now I have A Machine Gun. Ho Ho Ho." achievement

There may be a few games that I don't own or haven't downloaded that have been updated with new achievements as well.
