    I got a Team Fortress 2 item. Great. I don't even play Team Fortress 2 (care to guess why?).

    I own every single Valve title I have any interest of having at all :(

    Well Ive got -33% valve game discount.

    And I guess I wont do any other objectives becouse I dont own those games on steam. I mostly buy retail version of games and I have only those on steam which require steamworks so... not that much

    How to use it? Every valve game is no 50% off. So it would be 88% but how to apply that coupon?

    Still waiting for something I don't already own goes on sale. As I said in one of the other threads about this, there are only a handful of games that I want on Steam that I don't already own and they are still too new for them to drop to a price I would be willing pay for.

    yup. for me Arkham City. but then again. i hear the PC version really sucks so it have to get pretty cheap for me to pick it up.

    I have two coupons in there when I was able to see it. I think that one is a mistake though. One is 50% off a Valve game and the other is 50% off a steam game. That latter seems suspect to me since it seems to good to be true and all these problems make me think it isn't true.

    @Winternet:

    Mind gifting it to me? Then I could convince somebody else to gift me their 50% off coupon, and I could have 100% off ALL VALVE PRODUCTS! (Unless they want to pull some mathematical limit thing on me; in that case, I'll just get more coupons until I get the desired effect.)

    It works now. 33% of Valve games, oh yay. I can buy either the first L4D or HL Source. Whatever, it doesn't do to complain about useless free things.

    So...Steam is completely on fire now right? I can't even get in to buy Singularity.

    Burning and huddled in a corner while 4 million people try to steal its candy. I thought it'd be more stable now than when it started, but nope.

    At least Dead Island says it's $27 now instead of flipping between $10 and $27. So there's that.

    For me it was listed as 25 dollars yesterday, but everyone else said 20. Odd.

    @Video_Game_King: Hmm. Under tags it says tradable. But, I can't see how I would gift it. Maybe since it's only active after Jan 2nd I can only gift it then? I don't know.

    You can only use one coupon at once. I have 33% and I am not sure how to use it. Offcourse if someone wants to mail me 50% off ,it would be even better:D

    I got Half-life 2, and Half-life 2: Lost Coast (which i believe comes standard with Half-life 2)...

    This is kind of nice... although, i think i should have 2 gifts, since when you click on the store front gift page the first time, it says it going to give you a free gift... but it didn't, well, not for me at least.

    33% off a Valve Title

    50% off Steel Storm: Burning Retribution (a game that is 75% off now...)

    and possibly "Orcs Must Die" (I just bought a copy to gift that hasn't been redeemed yet, so I'm not sure)

    The X% off Valve title coupons are the worst. They can only be used from Jan 2 - March 1st on games that exist before Jan 2nd.

    That means they can only be used on games that are on sale right now for probably better than the coupon would discount, but can't be used now on top of the sale.

    Ya.... I read the fine print of that and instantly went from yay to boo. Was looking forward to getting something down the road at half price, but since it's only their current games it doesn't do a dam thing for me since I own them all.
