Got about $70 or so worth of stuff already. Mainly some indie games, Civ 5 Gods and Kings and Skyrim DLC. Yea I should have probably waited but I thought screw it hehe.

I'll wait with Mark of the Ninja (daily sale?), but I'm totally buyin' The Walking Dead!
Is that $12.49 copy of The Walking Dead all 5 episodes or is it just part 1?
@Deathshroud said:
I really hope Borderlands 2 goes on sale for more then 25% off . please oh please
That's what I'm contemplating as well. I could get it now but I almost want to wait.
Also, I'm probably getting KOTOR 2. I've heard good things about Audiosurf but I can't tell what the fuck it is.
Yep, I picked it up when it was 25 dollars and only 2 episodes were released and even playing though them I thought I got my moneys worth, the whole series is a steal for 12 bucks, like 13 hours of some of the best story telling in games.
Shit man, my girlfriend just got a "holiday" raise and now I have an excuse to call these Christmas gifts.
FUCK.

Does anyone know if Aquaria ever goes on sale ? I'd love to play it now , but not if it drops soon . It seems like it never does ..
I picked it up in one of the sales last year. I think it was a daily sale but it could've just been when nearly everything was on sale.
I just picked up Lego Star Wars the Complete Saga for my daughters and I.
Also I'm keeping my eye on DeathSpank (that has never dropped below 50% off). Yeah not a bad price at all, but the Baconing is $4 so why not the original?
BTW anyone know if the original THE WITCHER supports 360 controller?
I also notice that RE5 isn't on sale. Cheap Capcom!

walking dead probably entirely ruined for me so FUCK THAT :(
Wait, what happened?
I picked up The Walking Dead for 50% off and just finished the first episode. Great game. I'm thinking about picking up Endless Space but I'm not entirely sure if I'll really get into it. Haven't played a serious 4x (except some Civ 5 which I liked). Has anyone else played it? What did you think of it?

FML... day one and I'm £25 down :/
also, whose brilliant idea was it to have TWO STEAM SALES with only a MONTH between? X-mas starts Dec 20 :/
Unless you've entirely run out of games to play, you could just wait until the Boxing Week sale, where it's basically guaranteed that you will be able to buy the same games at the same discount, or an even better discount.
It is kind of pointless having these sales so close together, when Steam is a digital storefront, and digital goods are almost always something people buy for themselves.
Well have not played Dead Island so will be buying that, but can say RAGE was pretty fucking shit lol

that's not a bad idea. thankfully I cancelled the purchase at the last minute, just got Intrusion 2 on flash deal. I though to wait for flash deals but maybe your idea is better.
Still, I'm aiming for the -75% discounts anyway, so not sure it can be cheaper. damn steam, so many uncertainties, so many games, so little time and money :/

Hm, Dead Island or RAGE?
Dead Island
- Knights of the Old Republic 2
- Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion
- Game of Thrones: Genesis (a mistake, I'm sure)

It did on release. I can't imagine that's changed.
I don't think the original Witcher has controller support at all. The Witcher 2 does.
I have a medical condition where I sometimes fail to notice numbers and the relevance they might hold.
It's an ongoing struggle.
Rage is an errand boy game, it's like borderlands but minus the fun... was just bored with it after two hours and that was today...
Max Payne 3 imo is the best of all of them, easily worth $15, gritty, fun and good story/shooting.
so far I bought The Witcher 2 at 60% off, just to support them a bit, already played it and it was great. everything I haven't already played looks pretty shitty or not cheap enough for me to piss away if i hate it after 20 minutes.

Got Max Payne 3. To hell with my backlog, downloading it right away.
I picked up Max Payne 3, as well. Hoping it to be better than GTAIV is shaping up to be. Still hoping to see a few games go on sale:
- Arkham City DLC
- Hotline Miami
- GTA: San Andreas
- Dishonored
Edit: got Hotline Miami for 5 dolla.
@c0l0nelp0c0rn1:
You can get Dishonored from Greenman for 22.50 :D (Use the 25% code)
Borderlands 2 Is on sale for 50% off ..but I have to pass it up now even after waiting for it. I hit my spending/budget limit when i got Dishonored and KoA:Reckoning for 30 bucks between the two of them. Guess I will have to wait until Winter sale.
Man, these Steam sales are getting less and less exciting now that I own pretty much everything I'd want off their service, besides the newer titles of course. I think GMG and Amazon had way more interesting deals. Even though in the end it all ties back to Steam.
I still managed to add to my backlog, but i spent less then 60 bucks so im happy with what i got and what i paid for it.
Torchlight 2 - 10 bucks
mark of the Ninja - 7.50
Elemental: Fallen Enchantress - 20 bucks
Serious Sam 3 BFE & DLC - 12.50
I also picked up Sleeping Dogs for 13.60 on GMG along with Krater for like 5 bucks.
So around 60 bucks this sale, theres a few things i passed on because i dont have time for what i got let alone more stuff, i really need to lay off on the Christmas sale but i know i wont.
So, is there still going to be a Winter/Christmas sale?
Seems awfully late for Autumn, though, I suppose it still is technically...
Has Dark Souls had a daily deal yet? I've been holding out on that, but I may just jump in. Think it's currently 33% off, which is pretty decent.

There's probably going to be a Christmas sale. At this point, unless a purchase is insanely cheap, I'd wait until then. Dark Souls has been cheaper than that before and will probably be cheaper then as well.
