I've heard the DLC is free for the PC version, is that true? "Yes they are.
Also, once again euro users get middle finger on some of these prices. (BfBC2 6.8$ or 13.6€ ( 18$ )) :(

Magnetis, a neat WiiWare puzzler is on sale for $0.50. If you missed it there, grab it on Steam.
Sword & Soilders, another WiiWare -> Steam game is also on sale for $5. Sidescrolling RTS!
I need to keep telling myself that my computer probably won't run F1 2010 well, or I'm going to be $20 poorer by the end of the day.
Very tempted to pick up the Deus Ex collection for $3, as well, just so I have a digital version of the original to go along with the old box copy I have. Still questioning the wisdom of that.
I won a copy of Sword & Soldiers the other day, which worked out perfectly because it's something that runs on my old laptop which is my sole gaming machine for the next week. It's great. I'm loving it. It's funny, charming, and fun to play. I recommend it to anyone looking for stuff to buy during this sale." Magnetis, a neat WiiWare puzzler is on sale for $0.50.

" Is it bad that I look forward to these sales more than actual Christmas? "That's perfectly reasonable. Getting Super Meat Boy and probably Bad Company 2.
Already grabbed the Oddbox and Super Meatboy! We need to support the Oddworld games so they will make more! :-)
I'll admit a little bias here, as I know the creator Zara online, but Eversion's now in this sale for $2.49. It's a short little romp that isn't more than a couple of hours, but if you like quirky platformers with interesting mechanics, it's worth a try.
Don't read up on it before buying, though (spoilers!), and know that it's best played at night with the lights off and the sound up. It will overwhelm you with its cuteness and whimsy, trust me.
It's a bit messy out there in Steam sale land.
I picked up Fallout GOTY edition (I've been putting that off for so long) and Winterbottom.
I hope some of the games in the packs will be offered as daily deals as well. My virtual wallet still has some cyber currency left inside.
It's not real money, is it?

People need to play Eversion. And do not ask any questions.

Pull the trigger. $15 is ridiculous for by far the best game that's come out all year." I really want Mass Effect 2. It's for $15 right now, should I get it now, or wait to see if it drops any lower in this holiday sale (or is this probably the lowest it will be?). "
God, why is Darksiders not on sale at all. It's even excluded from the THQ pack. $40 is still too much for me to spend right now, especially on a singleplayer game that I don't know if I'll enjoy. I really want to play it though!
edit: wow I just checked and it is on sale now. That is weird. It was originally excluded from the sale. $26.79!
The winners probably aren't going to be picked until 12:00am at the earliest.To qualify for the Grand Prize Drawing you must log into Steam any time on December 20th (12:01am - 11:59pm Pacific Time)
My today's shopping
So far I've bought:
Bad Company 2, Cryostasis, Deus Ex Collection, Evil Genius, FEAR Collection, Lego Star Wars Saga, Oddworld Collection, Overlord 2, Painkiller Black Edition, The first 3 Prince of Persia games, Super Meat Boy, Titan Quest Gold, and PB Winterbottom. All together that's about 79 dollars or something.
Oh God, how much money am I going to spend.
I have Titan Quest Gold and Beyond Good and Evil in the cart... are they worth it? I know BGaE is meant to be great but don't know how well it has aged and know next to nothing about Tian Quest
Came close with BC2 (already have it for ps3) but so far my wallet is in one piece. Will definately keep an eye on those daily deals though.
Son of a bitch. I was going to buy World in Conflict today, but now it's on sale which means I have to wait until the 2nd to see if it goes on more-sale like The Orange Box did last year.
I might get the Indie Fright Pack...dunno. I'll probably get Super Meat Boy too. I also might get me some Half Life 1. And possibly P.B. Winterbottom since it's Forty Nine Cents. I mean, damn dude.
I just want my World in Conflict...
Everyone who bought Super Meat Boy should add their names to the GB leaderboard thread.
Oh Steam, where do you get your crazy Euro prices from?
Don't get me wrong, the Steam sales are amazing, but coming on here and seeing the dollar/pound prices being significantly lower is kind of a downer.
I just bought the three Prince of Persia games I haven't played yet for $10. Gifted a copy of P.B. Winterbottom to a friend and bought one for myself too, because 50 cents is a ridiculously good price. I'm scared for what the rest of the week will bring in terms of sales...I've yet to actually resist buying something during one of their big sales. If they're going to have daily deals, it's going to make saving money even harder. :(
Definitely getting FEAR pack, might have to cave on the Oddbox, but aren't they re-releasing Stranger's Wrath?
Bought the oddbox for a friend, I myself will probably just buy a ton of the indie packs, after payday I might buy a bit more.
lol just made my second (and last) purchase of the day, hdd space required... 43gigs :D
broken sword 2 and 3 (to go with the first i bought earlier), the first 3 prince of persias (i have the 08 and latest on 360), the deus ex pack, the fear pack, freedom force and freedom force vs third reich.
so 15 euros earlier plus 27 now makes 42euros spent on the first day :(
And ill probably regret not getting the Oddbox in the longrun
I just bought every prince of persia game for 17 bucks.
I've played them all before.
I hate/love you, Steam.
Right, I finally bought Left4Dead 2, not tried it before. And I bought Half Life: Source, loved this game before but never finished it, time to try again.
