Seriously, Steam, This is Getting Old

BNG's Tyler Treat writes,"The Steam Holiday sale trudges on today. I'll keep it short this time and just post the bundle of sweet deals."

To the person who keeps reporting this, it's 66% off, $13.59.

I don't know. Maybe I'm old because I love it. Either that or I'm just can't turn down some of those great games for dirt cheap.

Speak for yourself, I bought like 8 games in the past week because they were deals I just couldn't pass up.

Max Payne 1 & 2 for £2.20 Bargain!

•Half-Life Source - $7.49 (25% off)

lol, it's £1.49 where I am. Pretty sure $7.49 isn't £1.49 when converted.

We get better deals than our gaming brothers across the pond. You might get a better deal on that game, but going by the Steam forums all EU gamers get bent over.

Valve increased the discount since they posted it.

It's $2.49 here in America.

Christ it seems like some people will whinge about anything. Yeah steam is getting old giving us these deals. I mean really what are they thinking.

Ok fair enough they screwed up the pricing of today's sales but quickly rectified them. I have bought at least 5 games so far and I am looking forward to seeing what the remaining three days hold for the sales.

Glad you caught the sarcasm.

The only thing that really pisses me off about the Steam deals is this: They could have warned us that they would have these deals, before we spent our monies on other items prior to the sale. I know that they can’t because people would just wait, but good deals anyway.

To be fair though they do them every year. But this year it was a couple of days early starting. If your ever wanting to get something on Steam and its near the Xmas period hold off, bargains will arrive with patience :D

Past few days of these sales have been pretty rubbish sadly. I'm hoping they have a discount on TF2 for a couple of quid, got a mate we need persuading into buying it.

"They could have warned us that they would have these deals, before we spent our monies on other items prior to the sale."

That's the point. It's called impulse buying.

Pretty pleased about todays.
Got Crysis pack, Shattered Horizon and the Multiwinia/Darwinia games.

Only thing for me was that I kept getting an "Unexplained error" during purchase.
Had to create a second account, (it had the same details for address and all that), and gift them to my normal account.
Thought that was a little wierd.

At least steam have less sales than DFS!

Steam can keep their sale going for all I care. I've picked up a half dozen titles for pennies over the past week or so. Saved a ton.
