Welcome to the Steam Deal Thread V4! You can find the V1 thread (Nov 2010-July 2011) here, V2 thread (July 2011 - Feb 2012) here, and V3 thread (Feb-July 2012) here. Read post #2 of this thread for Steam FAQs and more.

This is a Wiki post. Please read this
We appreciate you helping keep this thread up to date. The sales change virtually every day so no one person has the time to update them all. If you notice a game is no longer on sale, feel free to delete its line from the sale list. Of course, if you see a game is on sale, add it to the list. Make sure your changes match the thread's format! For example, every game that's on sale is part of an unordered list. When adding a game to the list, copy an existing line and update the link, title, and prices. That way, the format stays correct. Do not list percentages off! We list the original price and the sale price here. If you have any suggestions for major changes to the post/thread, PM me (EastX) about them.
for instructions on updating the thread.

Preorder Deals - Updated 8/9
Group Buys - Updated 8/14

Several multiplayer Steam games are available in 2-packs or 4-packs. These packs offer a discount over buying multiple copies of a game separately. We also maintain group buy trade threads for several games, so please use those threads if you're interested in setting up a group buy.

Free Stuff - Updated 4/3

There are several free games and mods on Steam. These are a few choice ones; you can find a full list here. Note that free games are not permanently attached to your Steam account like actual purchases would be. You'll need to manually download a game again from the website if you uninstall it.

Steam around CAG

If you are interested in joining the Steam CAG Community or participating in a trade or group buy with fellow Cheap Ass Gamers, please do so in the dedicated threads and not in the deal discussion thread. In the dedicated threads you will find CAGers with the same specialized interest who will be much quicker (and happier) to respond than in the Deals thread.

Steam Retail Key List

What is a CD key and where can I find it?

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7480-WUSF-3601

The CD Key is a serial number with a combination of 13, 18, or 25 letters and numbers - it can be found on a sticker inside your game's case or printed on the game's quick reference card.
The CD Key acts as your proof of purchase for the game - Steam Support may ask for it if you need to establish your ownership of an account. It is recommended that you keep your CD Key in a safe place to ensure the security of your account.

Also, yay, Sim City.
I think I might try that out, I haven't played a Sim City game the SNES days.

Spoony, may I suggest a minor update to your Brief Guide to Steam Sales and Library Building. This is my first Steam Summer Sale, and I've made several purchases of the "previous" incarnation of a series because I thought the current version was either still too high, or still getting DLC and waiting for a GOTY or equivalent bundle later down the line, or both (Civ 5 being a perfect example). I went with the Civ 4 bundle instead. Tropico 3 bundle instead of Tropico 4, Settlers 6 Vs. 7 etc.

Also, you could note how to look out for the later versions of games that have all the content of the previous games (Left 4 Dead 2), so that even though both were on sale, there was no real reason to buy both.

And, An update about how to handle these new Flash Deals and how usually they operate as an unadvertised discount of the entire series could help too.

Excellent guide. But Steam has changed the rules a bit. :applause:

I have a GTX 560 and yes it works. Honestly I can't see how it wouldn't work. It uses direct 3D so that card should work for pretty much any PC game, the odd driver issue here and there aside (which I have not noticed with Sim City).

They probably just didn't list it because that's an OLD game and that card is fairly recent.
 
[quote name='walkonshadows']You can't remove it from your Library. It's the Mac version of the game. Steam won't let you take it out, if it bothers you, make a separate category for it. I had to do that with all the Civ IV games/expansions.[/QUOTE]
I just set my library to show installed games only. I haven't bothered with categories cause I've read they reset every now and then and your effort goes down the drain.
 
[quote name='walkonshadows']Shoul I ask wtf a Wootoff is?

Woot! is a deals site run by Amazon. Daily sales on different sorts of items, pretty much. Occasionally they have "Wootoff" which is basically a bunch of sales back to back.

They used to be good, I hear, but I never see anything worthwhile.
 
[quote name='walkonshadows']Shoul I ask wtf a Wootoff is?

It's pretty safe in my opinion. I like trying to catch a Bag of Crap (Random Item at a cheap price), however I'm not going to go crazy over it. I just let it auto-refresh on a different monitor while I do shit.

[quote name='SqueeMK2']How is Coconut Queen? I've seen you playing it in my friends list.[/QUOTE]

In all honesty if you can get past the obviously geared toward women part, surprisingly decent. I actually hoped it would be more of a train wreck, but you can tell the dev put some work in it. There's a scenario mode with cut scenes and voice acting even.

I mean it ain't Civilization V or anything, but for a casual game it's not bad, albeit it has a really silly over the top and embarrassing premise. Frithsblessing said he would rather his wife walk in on him with porn on the computer than Coconut Queen. :lol:

from Wikipedia

The site occasionally deviates from the one-product-per-day model for a "Woot-Off". A Woot-Off lasts for an unannounced length, usually 24–72 hours.[10] During a Woot-Off, products usually sell out quickly, and when one product sells out, it is replaced within a minute or two by a new product. A percentage bar shows how much stock of the current product remains. However, Woot never gives the exact quantity available until after the item has sold out.
On occasion, Woot has a limited one-hour version of the Woot-Off called Happy Hour. These events are promoted solely via Twitter, and do not appear on woot.com's front page.[citation needed]
Starting in July 2005, Woot began occasionally offering a blind grab bag officially called "Random Crap", in lieu of typical product sales. While today its accompanying picture of a paper lunch bag with a question mark has kept its unofficial name "Bag of Crap," (BOC) it was originally dubbed "Bag of Crap" during the early years of the site when a physical bag of some kind (notebook, iomega zipper bags, etc.) was sold with the 1-3 "craps" and was part of what you were buying.[11] Today, the BOC contains at least three "crappy" items and one bag[12] whose value and quality are not guaranteed, but sometimes expensive items are included. The BOC typically triggers millions of order requests and sells out within seconds, causing server lag and even a server crash.[citation needed] During the January 25, 2011 selling, the website received a record 3.1 million requests, and the product was sold out within eight seconds.
During April Fool's Day 2008, Woot staged a Woot-Off offering the same product repeatedly,[citation needed] except for a few brief periods when Woot sold Bags of Crap instead. Three years later on April Fools' Day, Woot staged a "Bag of Crap" flash game, which users were instructed to play in order to win the privilege of buying Bags of Crap. On April 1, 2011, eight thousand Bags of Crap were sold. Later in the day, once the Bag of Crap selling period was over, a Woot admin said that there were over seven million attempts to get the Bags of Crap.[13]
Beginning with the "gamma" launch of the Neuros MPEG 4 Recorder,[when?] Woot has occasionally partnered with another company to launch a new product with a one-day exclusive Woot sale.

[/QUOTE]

1. I could probably handle that one easily enough

2. Aside from Left 4 Dead, I don't know that there are a lot of other games that would require that kind of warning. If you know of a decent enough number, we could see if it's worthwhile

3. I'm still on the fence about the flash deals. I wrote the guide as an all-purpose thing. If these flash deals are a one and done, adding a bit in would confuse people later.

Those are just my opinions, but if there's enough interest and reasoning behind making the changes, I'd be happy to.
 
crap, i thought i was done buying games on this sale, i may get some games from the total war mega pack, i own too many of the actual games in the pack but they are all 75% off if you get them individually. what dlc from empire total war and napolean are worth picking up?
 
So I was downloading Source Filmmaker and I get to the point where it's almost finished and then all of a sudden, fucker either restarts or something and now it's downloading 5.5 gigs again. fuck

Get the CoconutZ mod. Everyone is talking about it.

[quote name='vince_carter']anyone know if STALKER series is playable with a gamepad? i'm on the fence never tried these games[/QUOTE]
You won't want to play with a gamepad. It uses a block inventory system. Mouse is much better for that.
 
Other than the existing 40%, has Oblivion been on sale? I know it missed out on a flash vote, so I'm hoping it comes back as a flash deal or daily.
 
[quote name='houdinilogic']not sure I can handle any additional brawn. perhaps a touch more succulence, but no more brawn.[/QUOTE]

When it comes down to it, couldn't we all use a touch more succulence really? I know I could.

[quote name='jkimrey']Other than the existing 40%, has Oblivion been on sale? I know it missed out on a flash vote, so I'm hoping it comes back as a flash deal or daily.[/QUOTE]

Not yet for this sale but so far the vote losers seem to keep popping up later anyway so I am pretty sure it will hit the 75% off that it got narrowly beaten out by Torchlight for.

Also there's potentially an opportunity for it to go on sale with the Quakecon and maybe even a franchise sale on the release of Dawnguard, though they seem to be keeping the discounts for Skyrim and the older games separate these days.
 
I highly recommend the STALKER games. I played SoC, and it is one of the best FPSs I've played. If you are into the post-apocalyptic setting, this game is for you.
 
[quote name='jkimrey']Other than the existing 40%, has Oblivion been on sale? I know it missed out on a flash vote, so I'm hoping it comes back as a flash deal or daily.[/QUOTE]

Not yet. It was up for a Community Vote @ 75% off but lost to Torchlight. We're almost guaranteed to see it as a flash or daily deal before it is over.
 
I need help with another decision, CAG's. I looked at Coconut Queen's Steam page, and there are a ton of different DLC Coconuts - Like, over $1,000 worth!

So, if I pull the trigger on Coconut Queen, which DLC variations should I get? I'm thinking the entire Australia series.

Hang on, my understanding was that that's now an official DLC pack, or at least it will be. I was going to ask about which Coconut DLC was best, but that's a separate topic from the mods.

That said, I'm looking forward to getting that shark gun.

I finally added CQ to my wishlist so I won't forget to buy it the last day of the sale.

I always strive to be part of the "in" crowd. If that means sharing fruit with brawny native gents, well then pass me some succulence.
