People don't really edit it and there isn't much point. The main deals are displayed prominently on the front page of the Steam client's store page and/or homepage. You can also look under the 'specials' tab for additional deals.

They also post the Daily, Midweek, and Week Long deals under the News section. http://store.steampowered.com/news/?feed=steam_announce

It's simple, helpful posts like this that remind me why this thread's so great - Where else on the Internet do people act this civilized?

What Mooby said.

With regard to finding the deals here, you basically skim the last couple of pages or so of this thread and if there's a deal someone is probably talking about it. People also tend to discuss deals for games from other sources that redeem on Steam like indie bundles, Amazon, Gamersgate etc which you'd miss if you just check Steam's page.

If you really want an at a glance listing of just deals on Steam games across the board from various sources (not just from Steam themselves) then Reddit Game Deals is probably a better place to look for that.

They do post some GOG DRM free stuff and console stuff sometimes but most of the stuff are deals on there are deals on Steam or that games that activate on Steam. If not it's generally clearly noted.

There are some really handy posts there sometimes. Like the list of all games Amazon has on sale right now that redeem on Steam.

War-Z or Alien: Colonial Wars sounds like stuff I'd buy if it was wicked-cheap; OR Tony (Amazon DVG) threw those in a bundle w/ OTHER AWESOME games I really wanted....

Agreed.

Alright so I just started Just Cause 2 and my impressions of it are really good at this point. Does the game get worse as it progresses? I hope not.

The game stays awesome, but just beware there is so much stuff to collect. I mean so much stuff.

I love collecting stuff. Welllll, except for the Assassin's Creed flags.

So I have a question. What is the best game on PC that is comparable to Gran Turismo 5? When I say comparable I mean cars of all different types and well races that are on racetracks and not just races on streets.

I been watching Top Gear lately and well I am in a I wanna play a real racing game mode . I will either get something on PC or just go for GT5 XL edition.

You know, I've wondered that myself. Not because I'm any good at that kind of game, mind you. I just like collecting the cars through sucking in enough races to buy the next one I want.

I think Fallen Enchantress has finally reached my price point to buy

I play a little Forza but don't keep up on that kind of racing. Off the top of my head I'd say NFS Shift 2 might be the closest recent game like that for the PC. Keep an eye out for Project CARS which I think is coming out later this year.

Yeah, and I don't care much for online. Test Drive Unlimited 2 kinda had the right idea, but I realized that I would rather be racing on actual tracks instead of just city.

It's up to you, but be aware they are coming out with Fallen Enchantress Legendary Heroes soon which is basically Fallen Enchantress+. It has everything the current FE has plus they added some new game mechanics and campaigns.

If you get the regular version now and want to buy Legendary Heroes later they will give you half off the regular price though.

If you are dead set on getting it now then do so from Gamefly because they have the same sale price Steam has plus another 20% off when you use the coupon code GFDMAR20.

I love that TDU2 game....

Oh, and some of that music in there.

Wo0t @ Passion Pit's "Little Secrets" song in there (on Hariba Radio).
Shoutout to that local Cambridge-based band.
And I bought Passion Pit's recent Gossamer album from Amazon MP3 yesterday (1 day deal) for $2.

If you simply do a little of the story based stuff occasionally, but focus on . . . mayhem around the map, it'll stay the same for many, many hours. I think I did the first few missions for the, uh, red group? Then just started picking regions to clear out.

Oops, I waited too long and now the Groupees bundle is over.

Anyone buy extras?
