Any and all Steam Deals!

[Smashed Brother]

Upon searching, I couldn't locate a dedicated Steam thread, so let's start one now dammit! List any and all awesome Steam deals here!



This whole week Steam has been discounting the shit out of their games. Each day brings completely new sales, with tomorrow (11/29) being the final day. Today, among many other sales, you can pick up The Orange Box for only $7.50!! If you've been waffling on grabbing that (like me), now's your chance! But check it out...there are plenty of other great titles on sale too.

Today/Tonite's notable sales:

Left 4 Dead 2 - $4.99
Shatter - $2.50

I'm waiting for the 1st L4D game to be on sale since I've never played it, so I passed on the sequel (I strictly adhere to playing shit in order), but I decided to try out Shatter because the trailer sold me on it. I'm glad that I did! An awesome Arkanoid/Breakout update, with some cool powerups, a local co-op mode and a fantastic electro soundtrack! Check it out!

By all accounts, L4D2 is pretty much just an "expansion" for the first L4D ; you lose nothing by skipping out on the first one, really.

Shatter is pretty cool, but attempting to achieve the insane requirement of the current "Treasure Hunt" challenge - 11.2 million points in Bonus mode - is really ruining the experience.

Hey, Bionic Commando is $13 and BC: Rearmed is $6. I know that Arkham Asylum is on sale too, but I don't remember the price right now...

[Kitsune Sniper]

Arkham Asylum is $15 right now. I'm waiting to see if it'll go even lower.

Also, I got BC:Rearmed as a gift a while back. I don't want to pay $13 for BC alone, so I'm also waiting for another price drop. Too bad I don't own a 360, or I could just buy the damn game for $5 or so. :P

[norkusa]

Sniper Elite is only $1.49. You'd be crazy not to buy this.

Uh, what kind of game is it?

[norkusa]

Third person WWII shooter where you're a sniper (well 3rd person when you're running around, 1st person when you snipe). Gets pretty gory too - lots of slow motion bullet cams with exploding heads and brains. Played thru the Xbox version when it came out and loved it. You can even play the PC version online too.

[Gapporin]

Recettear for $7? Yes, please.

[Therealqtip]

Recettear for $7? Yes, please.

the thanksgiving deal was way better then that, 5 dollars and 4 other games, I was hoping Recettear would be in the indie pack.

Clearly they got wise to how insane that deal was.

Then again, this is the company that gave away one of their flagship titles away completely for free (i.e. Portal).

[zemmix]

Ok need to spend less now. Sure ME 1 has been on sale for $5 before but I missed that and still don't have it. So I picked up..

Mass Effect 1 & 2
Patriarch IV (looks like an old game I used to play on Dos, Machiavelli the Prince)
Silent Hunter V (I've been wanting to see the graphics on this one)
Wings of Prey (Has the worst DRM on Steam and only 3 activations but for $6 it's worth the rental I guess)

[Therealqtip]

Although these deals are good, watch out for Amazon's downloadable title sales, Bioshock 2 was 10 dollars on steam but today its 5 dollars on amazon.

[Jorpho]

Unfortunately Amazon.com's digital downloads don't work outside of the US.

So Capcom pulled a dick move today.

Devil May Cry 4 was $5 for a couple of hours... and then they raised the price to $10. I thought these specials were supposed to last all day. Fuck 'em.

Same thing happened with the Valve pack at the beginning of the sale. Was $25 for the Valve complete pack but then went up to $50! Kicking myself for not getting it at $25.

Todays buys were:
-Overlord
-Torchlight
-King Arthur

To be honest I'm not a huge fan of console games that get ported to the PC. The Mass Effect series seems ok though.

[Kitsune Sniper]

ARKHAM ASYLUM FOR $7.50

I knew waiting was the right thing to do!

[zemmix]

Love space games so I picked up the X superbox deal today. I really was wanting Dragon Age... but $25 for the complete edition is a bit too much. I highly doubt I would get around to playing it before it drops to $10 during the summer sale anyway. Heck I might not even get around to playing it till the next Christmas sale!
