Steam Summer Sale

kidloco · 16 Jul 2013 at 10:14

Only thing I have bought so far is Fez. Tomb Raider seems is a bargain. Fantastic game but i've already finished on the 360.

What happens if it wins?

Says:

Subject to availability. Restrictions apply. In the event of manipulation or technical difficulties, Valve reserves the right to decide what goes on sale

They could just turn around and say it was a technical difficulty and put something else.

but then again they could just let it go.

Got Rollercoaster tycoon 3 off the latest deal, actually had the same game in my cart on another site last week before deciding not to get it, half the price on steam.

Loving the latest Skyrim price showing for voting £0 lol I get the feeling that'll win..

People who actually think something being 40% off equals £0.00 shouldn't be allowed to vote

hope Bioshock wins as I bought Skyrim at release.

Any idea if Fez will reduce in price? It's a pretty big ask at over £5 at the moment I think.

It'd be rude not to vote for Skyrim. Someone at Steam HQ will wake up later to find a landslide vote. And a headache.

Hmm, it would be £17.99...hmm + 0.01 ÷ 6 = 3...HL3 confirmed

I've already got a hard copy of Fallout 3 but its on sale under £4. I've got some money from those silly card things to knock off. Would you buy a game that you already owned but wasn't on steam?

I'm thinking it would be easier come new PC time in the future and I wouldn't need to keep the hard copy game?

uncle_rufus · 16 Jul 2013 at 10:20

Just as I thought... Skyrim Legendary at 40% is still £17.99... not going to be paying that for it that's for sure. No bother - it's not like I don't have anything to play!!!

Doesn't the physical copy of Fallout 3 register on Steam anyways?

Bioshock still not cheap enough for me even with that discount hence the skyrim vote as it may affect DLC.. but tbh I'd only buy another Bioshock game at less than a tenner, didn't enjoy the first one and skipped the second entirely!

Nope, its GFWL.

Exactly the same here, though I do like the look of Infinite, the first two have stopped me from buying it at current prices.

Get it on steam and sell the hard copy?

Edit: Gah, Roller Coaster Tycoon instead of ETS2 well I won't be buying that then!

Can't believe that won. Come back to my PC fully expecting to get my wallet out, to be greeted by RCT. Gutted.

Will it be on sale on the last day?

This is my first SSS.

Bought Total War: Shogun 2 and Fez.

It was already reduced. £5 is still a good price, although it might repeat on the last day.

Incidentally, Phil Fish said they sold more copies of Fez in those 48 hours than they did in the entire first month on Xbox Live.

I have it on the 360 which is never plugged in these days.

My ex took over my bloody 360 for a month playing that game, I got into it, started to like it. Jokingly asked her to try and solve a puzzle and what do you know, she was addicted and I just never bothered with it again as each time I mentioned or wanted to play it she took over haha.

So now, I will play it on the PC

Yeah I got it for £3.49 I think it was.

It will be back on the final day if not before.

Shogun total War 2 is immense by the way for anyone umming and ahhhing. :cool:

Yeah NV was the first game Bethesda went Steamworks with, it's weird that they can't get 3 put onto Steamworks, shouldn't be hard at all and it would save people having to mess about with GFWL and serial limits.
