    Is there anything you've got on your wishlist that you're holding off on buying because of the upcoming Steam Summer Sale?

    I'm hoping for The Witcher 2 and Trials Evolution.

    Hard Reset. It's been on sale before but at the moment I'm in the mood for a short, quick, good-looking PC shooter.

    Rogue Legacy, Prison Architect, Kentucky Route Zero, & Antichamber are all on my wishlist. We'll see if it's worth biting!

    I'm more likely to keep an eye on GMG from now on. They can't compete on the scale of sales Steam has during the summer and holidays but on individual games, especially newer ones they are incredible. Years of Steam sales have made it so i have all the big collections and bundles that matter to me and i've been buying games one at a time as they come out or go on sales for the first time since the last 18 or so months.

    In any case, not much for me this summer. Maybe Tomb Raider, maybe Fez but otherwise i don't really see anything until later this year.

    I've bought pretty much everything I've wanted from steam and plenty of stuff I didn't want. I think I'll take it easy this year if I spend any money at all.

    CKII: The Old Gods, Borderlands 2 Season Pass and the Tom Clancy collection. I also want to see a deep (at least 50%) cut on Guild Wars 2 at another outlet sometime soon.

    Nothing really comes to mind. A bunch of smaller indie games I guess. Stuff that looks neat, but that the $10-$15 price tag just seems to be too much.

    I'm actually somewhat interested in getting Dark Souls. Might get that for cheap.

    Mars: War Logs. That game looks like it's held together by duct tape but it's interesting enough to be worth purchasing for a lower price.

    I'm hoping for there to finally be a steep cut in DmC's price. Other than that, I've got a whole long wishlist of things that I'll be keeping an eye on.

    CKII: The Old Gods, Mars: War Logs, Company of Heroes 2 (probably won't happen, though I might pick it up if GMG gets a 25% off coupon), and Deadpool.

    Plus whatever other games are so cheap that I would lose money not buying them.

    Nothing big, but there are a lot of smaller $10-20 games that I'm looking to save money on before I buy them.

    I have so many Steam games from past sales I can't even think of what I want until I see the deals. Maybe a deal on Prison Architect but it's weird to see games still in Alpha go on sale.

    For those saying Borderlands 2 just a heads up that Amazon has a pretty good deal on it right now. They all come with Steam keys as well.

    Basically Borderlands 1 GOTY edition, Borderlands 2, Borderlands 2 season pass for $22 total. The extra character classes aren't included but they are on sale for $5 each also.

    Too many to list them all, but some of the games I'm most looking forward to picking up are Torchlight 2, Mark of the Ninja, Renegade Ops, X-Com: Enemy Unknown & Trials Evolution Gold.

    The past couple of Steam sales I've bought pretty much everything I've wanted that's on Steam, the Game of Thrones rpg is the only thing I can think of that I want to go on sale. There's a couple of indie games also but they are cheap enough that I can buy them whenever.

    Edit: I've thought of something, Borderlands 2 DLC, I haven't bought any of it yet and I have been meaning to get back into that game.

    I can't play any steam games until my computer is fixed, which will take weeks, and I can't buy anything until my job situation is resolved. So I hope NOTHING goes on sale, because if I can't enjoy it then no one can.

    ALL OF YOU SHOULD BE GETTING "FEZ"

    It's Tomb Raider for me and I think the last Skyrim DLC. Prison Architect is not even out, its Early Access thats why it is so expensive. @radecau

    I was hoping for Borderlands 2, but I looked at some gameplay today and realized I probably won't like Borderlands 2 after not liking Borderlands 1.

    So right now it's:

    • Dishonored
    • Hitman Absolution
    • Magrunner
    • Zeno Clash 2
    • Kentucky Route Zero
    • Gemini Rue
    • DmC
    • Primordia
    • Bioshock Infinite
    • Call of Juarez Gunslinger
    • Game of Thrones
    • Super House of Dead Ninjas
    • Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe
    • Skyrim DLC
    • Tomb Raider
    • Far Cry 3
    • The Incredible Adventures of Van Hellsing
    • Force Unleashed
    • The Swapper
    • Monaco
    • Anti-Chamber

    That's it so far. I don't expect to get those all, but it's what I'm interested in.

    Maybe, maybe Black Ops 1 and 2, but only if I can get em both for real cheap as I only really play the single-player in those games.

    All of it.

    Kerbal Space Program would be fun; StarForge seems cool. Got a bunch of things on my steam wishlist so those.

    90% of Steam Sales for me are just browsing each day for the daily and seeing if something interests me. 10% is waiting for something specific.

    I can set the maximum sale price of the game in Steam at any time, but I don't know how they decide who is in the sale.

    We've been notified on the date of the sale in advance, and we plan to organize a gameplay update at the same time. We're relying on the trend of games getting a promotion boost and sales spike on Steam when they update with new content, so we'll make the most of the sale.

    Will probably just browse through offers and see if something interests me, but if I'd have to specify something, perhaps Blood Dragon. Could also consider a package containing both that and FC3, if only to see the original game running well on a PC, after that struggling PS3-version.

    Oh fuck, I didn't even think of Dota 2 items. Does that sort of stuff typically go on sale during these events?
