Steam Sale Begins Today 1pm est - GAME OVER :(

[you2]

King arthur was fun (i got it last christmas) 'cept for slow loads combined with constant crashing. I'd pick up saxon but it is $9 and I alread have the rest so I don't really feel like spending $5 to pick up everything again + saxon. Also the crashes were quite annoying.

If you buy CS Source and Gary's Mod separately it's $5 cheaper

 

[Peremptor]

As much as I want to play the Sam & Max games, I'd like to start from the beginning. And this deal isn't anything special. All 3 seasons for $15 and I'd go for it for sure.

Exactly. Same here. They should at least just offered the first season at $2.50 or so to get us all hooked and then have to pay for the other two.

just got cs:source, heard a lot about this one.

 

[Soccerman06]

Hum to get dragon age ue or not...

 

[adairusmc]

I got all the red faction games this morning and splinter cell conviction. Civ5 is tempting, but I think I will wait for it to get a bit cheaper.

 

[SaDiZTiKStyLeZ]

Shank could have gone lower. Was hoping for $5 or less. The demo was pretty fun.

The deals/selection could have been a little better. Otherwise Monkey Island, FlatOut & Red Faction seem like great deals. Hasn't been decent deals like these since first 2 days.

 

[nyker96]

I don't see anything good today 12-25.

 

[alfa147x]

Batman seems good

 

[Fenixgoon]

i picked up two of the borderlands DLC (mad moxxie and claptrap) and DMC4

 

[Craig234]

There are a couple very good deals - Dragon's Age Ultimate, Batman for a couple - the Civ 5 discount is a bit disappointing ($37.49).

Haha, Steam must be getting hammered right now. I usually max out my 30 Mbps connection, and right now I'm getting ~70k. I was hoping Dragon Age would be finished downloading (23 GB) by the time I get back from Christmas dinner, but at this rate it won't be done by New Year's!

ROFL... Good to know us Ukrainians is good for something... ; )

 

[RavenSEAL]

Yea, even the Ukraine server is getting hammered.

 

[alfa147x]

I don't think I used the Ukraine server... But it was something else besides eastern USA

 

[SaDiZTiKStyLeZ]

It was definitely better speeds, but slowed down after half hour or so.

 

[Gospel]

Ukraine, Romania, and the Middle East have all been busts :<
Not a good time to download a 20+ gig game.

 

[postmortemIA]

I am getting about 0.5MB/s up to 1.0MB/s on Chicago region.

 

[PieIsAwesome]

Meh, nothing really good toiday. Already have Monkey Island and Batman.

 

[ImpulsE69]

So I finally broke down and was going to get Batman, however my CC kept declining and they are closed to try to force it through, then tried a gift card with the same issue. Guess thats the worlds way of telling me I don't need it.

I had the same problem with Steam declining my cards. Turns out I have to input all my information in capital letters or else it won't work.

 

[alfa147x]

I just use paypal

I'm surprised they don't allow (allow meaning option, please no flaming trolls) people to do something similar to bit torrent or, my suggestion, share files between steam accounts on the same lan. I have 2 kids with steam accounts and many times we all 3 get the same game. Seems stupid for steam to download the same files to all 3 of us separately.
