Discount fest is over.

 Such a fun time, there are a few things I enjoy more than paying a mere handful of dollars for games, I just wish Steam (and any retailer for that matter) would do it every single day! Talk about going poor in a few months. The first days in Steam's discount week were the best ones, it's just sad that I couldn't buy Half-Life 2 for 2.50 dollars, it wasn't this time they presented the deal, maybe for having in mind that basically everyone should have the game by now, and I do have it, but having it on Steam makes things so much easier, it's not even worth going through all the trouble of getting the disc and putting it to spin, just give the 2 and a half dollars and business closed. Those pack deals with many copies of the games also got me, I wanted Freedom Force but I couldn't find any group buy to get into, so I ended without the game. Sad, they should have made individual prices for these games, and I would hope the individual prices weren't so far from the pack, like Freedom Force, each copy of the game would go for 75 cents, had they put a individual price of 1 dollar, I'm sure the number sold would be way over it was.

Now for games I wanted to buy I can cite Oblivion, Morrowind, Dragon Age Origins, The Ball, among others; also some racing games that never got a price reduction. For Oblivion and Morrowind I was hoping to see a deal with both for like 10-15 dollars, I know it's highly unlikely but a man can always hope. I have Dragon Age Origins but I'm so willing to replay the whole game that I'd buy it for like 10 dollars, also unlikely until the new one comes out. The Ball was on sale, but the price reduction was of only 50%, from 20 dollars to 10 dollars, and I wasn't so crazy about that game to buy for that, if the game had received the discount other games received of 75% at the price of 5 dollars I wouldn't think twice.

During the week I bought the following games from Steam:

* And Yet It Moves
* Counter-Strike Source
* Counter-Strike Source Beta
* Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition
* Deus Ex: Invisible War
* DiRT 2
* Gish
* Jolly Rover
* Left 4 Dead 2
* Puzzle Agent
* Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale

Now I have a total of 23 games on Steam, since I've made my exam for college Sunday now I have the entire rest of the year to have fun, with games I bought, going Wake-boarding and enjoying Christmas time, which always puts a smile on my face.
