Same, looks to be a countdown to the end of the sale? Maybe when they sort that down they will be more heavily dicounted? Who knows...

I was wondering about this, as I plan on upgrading my computer innards in 2013. (Better processor, maybe a better graphics card, etc.)

Allow me to demonstrate my incompetence: Buying the 3D Mark Vantage is just about useless nowadays, right? Its for testing graphics cards that top out at DirectX 10, and all the newer cards are built around DirectX 11 (?) - making 3Dmark 11 the only one I should get if I want a thorough test?

(currently running a XFX AMD Radeon 7850 graphics card with a i7 2600 processor.)

So if I get the 3Dmark 11 at $4.99, that should set me up nicely for testing next year, right?

Thanks.

DMC3 and DMC4 has been 66% all the while this winter sale, i won't even consider that as a flash sale.

Took me a minute to figure out, but the flash sale is on the DMC3+4 bundle. Original price was $15 (yes, more than buying 3+4 separate) and they dropped it down to the 66% that it should've been all sale.

Any thoughts on Hitman: Codename 47 for $2.50? I'm planning on getting the Hitman HD collection down the line but it doesn't include the first game.

I've heard that Contracts covers some of the levels/ story from the first one. Is there any reason to play Codename 47 first, or should i just skip it and play from 2 onward?

Lame... I already have DMC4 since many sales ago.

Called it.

I work odd shifts and I catch myself waking up and spending the first hour or two catching up on this thread; the sales are underwhelming but the cat fights and jokes are worth it.

I picked up Resonance before bothering to see the comments suggesting future indie bundle status, which glancing over the list of their other games confirms it for me.

The timing on all the flash sales have been appearing jacked to me since the sale started. My phone's steam app, laptop's browser, and steam application will all show different ending times and even prices occasionally. Trine showed up as 75% in my browser and then dropped to 50% in the actual steam application.

Has that Vampire Masquerade game been on sale yet?

3DMark Vantage...well, this may be the only thing I'll pick up this Steam sale...

Skyrim for $24 from the Bethesda Pack is actually a good deal! I wouldn't buy them, but this outstanding gentleman might be able to take advantage of someone eventually! This is perfectly respectable, and we must chastise you for disagreeing!" It's a little ridiculous to defend someone for such price gouging, as if he needs anyone's aid to justify selling one game for almost the price he paid for 10. I'm glad most of those heartless key peddlers stay out of this thread. We've got great people like Fox, who sells at cost. I won't allow them to be a part of this family.

Yeah I posted earlier. I'm all for gettin' ya hustle on, but that dude is somethin' else lol.

I think the problem is with my hard drive being too big, have had that problem 4 times already. If I can't change the install location idk what to do.

Well that sucks. I have been waiting for the trine 2 dlc to go on sale for 75% off.

I was hoping for it too, bit did expect it to be only 50% off - they've done the same for the past few times that Trine 2 has been on sale.

ive checked every flash sale and it hasnt yet. game is fun, albeit buggy (youll definitely need the unofficial patches to play through it) and you can expect about 30 hours for a playthrough. 15 bucks is pretty steep though, id honestly wait til it becomes a midweek or something if it doesnt go deeper by the end of this sale

Is it funny or sad that Hearthfire is #18 on top sellers for $2.47?

Btw, I bought Hearthfire for $2.47

So far I've got: Fallout series Dragon Age Orgies (appeared as a flash, but not a daily) Maybe a few Paradox games. Hearts of Iron 3 or Crusader Kings, maybe. Command & Conquer series You can check this thread if you can't recall everything that has been a daily deal so far. http://forums.steampowered.com/forum....php?t=3032231

Just bought SimCity 4... Can't remember being funnier than SC2000... but I wan't to give it a chance again... after all, is a SC game! And I think It already has it's daily...

*grumble* Damn, I had hoped that it had been long enough since the Trine 2 DLC had been released that we'd see it at 75% off. I guess I'll wait until summer - not even done with Trine 1 yet.
