Steam Summer Sale 2016 set for 23rd June for two weeks

[Jono8]

I'll be on the lookout for Total War: Warhammer bargain

That is optomistic of you seen as it will have only been out a month by then

 

[MissChief]

If MGS phantom pain and Tomb Raider get decent price cuts I will be in.

Wasteland 2 (50% off) and Xcom 2 (33% off) both on sale right now on steam, am I probably better waiting for the sale for better savings?

In my experience anything that's been for sale around the time of the Steam sale will be no cheaper in the sale.

There are no guarantee's but if I were you I would purchase now.

You can also get the Enhanced Steam addon if you use Chrome or one of the many browsers based on it, which adds this information directly to the product page. It's very handy.

I got XCOM 2 from Kinguin for cheaper than Steam have it on sale for.

And at the same time managed not to support the dev.
Good on you!

he bought a copy that is official, not pirated and bought at one point from a proper source? The dev and publisher got paid at some point.

What you really should have said is 'And at the same time managed not to line Gabe's pockets by buying from steam'

Completely agree. There was a huge debate before on the grey market on this forum.

Anyone who doesn't shop around has more money than sense. I buy from GMG, CD keys etc all the time.

Cannot wait for this! Always love a steam sale... do people still humble bundle?

 

[felton1592]

This could be good timing around my Oculus Rift shipping estimate, could spend a fair whack and get some good discounts.

 

[Mark A]

Please no clicker game this time, I've only just got a new mouse!

fastclicker, google it.

Just wait for someone to make a script . Managed to get the top badge last time and only clicked a few times.

Hope they don't do it again though as my ocd would not be happy if I missed a badge.

I'm guilty of buying too many things in Humble Bundles and never getting around to playing them.

 

[platypus]

Hoping they'll reduce the Deus Ex pre-order by a few ££.

Steam sales have been very meh of late, the lack of daily/flash deals have made things stagnant, and a lot of the deals can be found cheaper else where. I may pick up superhot if it gets a hefty discount but other than that I'll probably skip this one.

I know what you mean, now it's the same deals throughout the sale, so check on day 1 and it's all over. It's a shame, they used to be much more interesting than they are now.

Sorry to tell you this but Steam get a cut of it anyway. Anything that activates on their platform, will generate them revenue no matter where the key ends up.

Though +1 on the shooting down of the 'not supporting the devs' nonsense.
