So do we have any details about when this starts?

While we wait, what are you hoping to see included in the sale?

For those who are new to this - Steam Christmas Sale 2011

Assassin's creed 3

I would like this to be in the sale too. Probably will be in there somewhere, but only at 25% off

- fingers crossed for 75%

Just noticed that AC3 is currently 25% off, so who knows, might go as low as 50% off in the sale!

It's 55% off at Ubisoft store at the mo' if you're interested, see the daily deals thread (edit: Nevermind, just saw you already saw it in the thread )

Yep, saw that one - would like it on Steam though

Wouldn't mind Dishonored on offer come to think of it.

Must say I don't have to many games in sight at the moment - still have too much of a backlog from earlier sales this year.

Is it not the 17th?

That would work for me

I wonder if we will get any badges with this sale. Haven't been badges in a sale since the summer one.

I'm hoping for Killing Floor + all dlc for £6.24 again

Seems pretty likely tbh.

Am I correct in saying I can log into my account through the steam website and buy games from there? I'm currently away and I do not have steam installed on my laptop so Im hoping I can catch the sale through their website

Yes you can

Thanks for confirming

No problem, I will be doing the same for a few days of the sale while I am away

Once you log back onto your PC with Steam installed they should all be waiting for you in the library.

Wonder if their website can keep up this year?

Unlikely, it always suffers when the deals first come up.

Not really just look at sites like facebook they have far greater numbers using it than what steam gets prehaps they need to invest in more/better servers.

Wouldn't be cost effective when you consider the fact that it really only happens for 20-30 minutes when the deals first come up.

what has happened to my thread!

CaptainRAVE · 20 Dec 2012 at 14:35

Just been looking over my wishlist. I have so many unplayed games that I am only going to pick up the really, really cheap games this year.
