Steam Winter Sale 2010 - What games/packs do you want?

Robert1986 · 7 Nov 2010 at 12:16

winter sale starts soon, what games is everyone hoping they put up on the cheap?

Looking at getting the following games if the price is right... Won't pay anymore than £10-20 for these packs.

Prince of Persia collection
Call of Duty collection
Unreal collection
quake collection
Battlefield collection
Stalker collection
Brothers in Arms collection
Pop Cap collection
Fall Out 3 New Vegas
Warhammer 40k Collection
Penumbra collection
ID collection
Telltale Everything pack

Looking at last years sales, I missed out on a lot of games. Now these games are pretty expensive to buy on an impulse.

Have DR2 on PS3... if I had access to the MM, I'd give you a good price.

Also hoping they put up Medal of Honor for around £15.

Can't say I'm looking for anything specific, though I look forward to seeing what they offer.

2 weeks before Christmas, I think. I missed out on around 10 days last year and was only able to pick up a few games. Really bummed out I missed all the deals. :/

None, because I buy them all and never play them. :mad:

A month is soon? Jeez its like the christmas stuff turning up in shops at the end of September.

Chances are the vast majority of the steam catalogue will be on offer. It'll just be the same as any other large sale event. Wait around to see if any individual games you like are on offer each day, if they aren't and are just discounted or part of a pack then buy it on the last day.

There#s a couple of games that I have yet to play that I missed offers on, that I also hope will turn up again this year:

Bioshock 2 - saw it on offer earlier in the year but missed it.
GTA IV addons - again missed the offer, so I hope they do them again.
COD: WAW - never played this one but want to, especially if the price is good.
Battlefield Bad Company 2 - I will probably buy this if I see an offer for it on steam.
Hitman collection - enjoyed the demos a while back but never got the games.
COD: Black Ops - I am deliberately holding off now in the hope of a price reduction.

So if all those games are on offer, then I am certainly going to be broke this Christmas, especially after I upgrade my PC.

I'd laugh if they don't do one, highly unlikely though.

Battlefield bad company2. Even though it is being sold for £12.99 on another website, I want it even cheaper

It did go for around £10 during the summer sale.

I didn't buy Metro when it was on sale because I thought I could wait until the Winter sale

Last years Winter Sale was immense

Lost a lot of money to Steam

ps3ud0 · 7 Nov 2010 at 13:40

Cant wait - only 2.5weeks to go

Bad Company 2 can be bought for £12 if you look around and Black Ops I wouldnt hold my breath.

Mw2 held its price even now they want nearly full price for it.

Iv played most ofthe games you guys ar mentioning, the one that stands out to me which you'v missed is Metro 2033.

Great game! Forget the fact its also one of the best looking games on the pc thats a side issues, its gameplay is so varied!
