    I have already lubed up my wallet's butthole so Steam can engage in its yearly savaging of it

    This is just obscene; $15 for Super Meat Boy and BFBC2 is unreal.

    Had to stop myself from buying BC2. I want it, but it wouldn't get much play time since I might buy a crap ton more games (CSS, Witcher, King's Bounty Crossworlds, ME2, Guild Wars, Stalker: CoP pleeeeeease...) and I still have WoW. most likely won't buy anything today, but if this is a sign of things to come then I can't wait!

    It doesn't work that way. The first year, Steam tells you what it wants to do with your wallet.

    There needs to be a testimonial section in Steam and this needs to be #1

    I'd buy BC2, but I guess it won't run too well on my rig... Can I get some feedback from people with a C2D?

    I think I'm just going to buy all of the indie packs and call it a fucking day.  
     
    Edit: Steam just crashed on me as I was preparing to check out, a sign from above?

    I doubt BO will go down. You know Activision. Civilization I'd say maybe 25-50% at most.

    I expect Civ 5 will. gamestop.ca had the boxed copy on sale the other day for $29.99, so I would be surprised if steam didn't at least match that at some point. As for your COD game, no. The best Activision ever does with them is $5 off. I think they just had the first MW game for $20-$25 during the last big sale.

    I'm assuming they are, but I need someone to tell me that most of those indie packs (fright, beat, etc) are on sale until the 2nd.

    Just re-purchased every Unreal title to have it on Steam. I also picked up the GOTY version of Fallout 3 because I don't have any of the DLC.

    @Mystyr_E: It's pretty damn good, starts a little slow, but once it gets rolling you should be into it. If it's the kind of game you look at and catches your interest, for $5 I would definitely pick it up.
