New Thread:

This thread has been replaced by TSDT v11.

Steam usually has week-long deals that change on Mondays at 6PM UTC. They mostly feature indie games, and may not run every week.

Sale summary lists:

Key:
⤷ indicates DLC, — specifies part of a pack, + shows alternative versions, ⚠ highlights things worth knowing, ♫ is obvious, and ... denotes a multi-pack.

Free stuff:
There are quite a few free games (mostly Free to Play) and mods available via the Steam platform, a comprehensive list of which can be found in this thread on the SPUF.

I hope we remember how bad Steam is crashing right now next time there's a call for GMG to go out of business if their site crashes during a free game promotion.  

 

[asheskitty]

Remember how slow Steam downloads used to be this time of year?

 

[TctclMvPhase]

Is this a time limited deal for L4D2? I'd rather not sit here and F5 the store if I don't have to...

I voted Papers, Please because it's the only actual game.

Look what you've done! You went and made The Fullbright Company sad!

Now Steve Gaynor's sobbing in the corner, clutching "Best Indie Game" awards in a futile attempt to anchor his world, so recently sent reeling by your hurtful suggestion that Gone Home doesn't deserve to be included in the category of "game."

So there. Gone Home 2 is cancelled.

I hope you're happy.

Steam should go out of business as well.

Soon all that'll be left will be SyntaxErrorGames.com

I took that one. I actually completely forgot about that game. Thank you very much!

Why has community choice voting ended? Doesn't this sale go until Jan 2 or 3?

 

[hathawcs]

Who holds the keys to the CAG Pinball group? I need to activate my competitiveness.

 

[spoderman]

Why has community choice voting ended? Doesn't this sale go until Jan 2 or 3?

Because a million people are crashing the site, causing it to glitch?

 

[jcp42877]

Surprise -- eleventh billion people downloading L4D2.

Yea...my base already has pretty slow internet, and after the word leaked of L4D2, I went from 600ish kbps to an average of 88kbps...damn you bandwidth hoggers!

Snapshot

All the best!

TMG

Thanks for Snapshot! Had I not been in instacodeentry mode, I would have requested the Book of Unwritten Tales, only to realize a few minutes later that I just bought that off GOG. So hooray for impulsive code grabbing! Also hooray for code dropping.

 

[TheRainCoat]

Enchancee? is that like a secret Pokemon that checks Steam prices for you? i'd make a sick-ass drawing of one but I ain't no artist.

I'm envisioning a steam-punk esque egg-shaped pokemon, that, instead of eggs, has scrolls with deals written on them coming out of its pouch.

Damn...I wish I had paid attention in art class, back in High School.

 

[asheskitty]

Steam should go out of business as well.

Would that help me with my steam games collecting problem? Or make it worse?

 

[madjoki]

Has there ever been a free STEAM game giveaway that HASN'T completely crashed the host?

If I remember correctly, even the Snuggle Truck giveaway had problems.

Fixed that. No one wants Origin or uPlay games for free.

Viagame has successfully given away Splinter Cell Conviction, Burnout Paradise and Assassins Creed IV Black Flag preorder for free.

Still hate them excluding Finland from ACIV giveaway

It's Nordic only, but that doesn't prevent even Koreans using proxies to get free games

 

[spoderman]

[inm8num2]

The answer to Steam's server overload problems is surely for everyone to F5 the homepage until all the features are restored.

 

[Syntax Error]

My kid gave me a Steam gift card for Christmas and I can't redeem card and now it's like Gabe doesn't want me to have Christmas from my children.

Spoiler

The answer to Steam's server overload problems is surely for everyone to F5 the homepage until all the features are restored.

Do you have any better ideas on how to know when it is fixed?!?!?

In related news: The Origin Store is doing just fine. You all should come over and stock up on Great Deals®! NEARLY EVERYTHING IS 40% OFF!

You left out complain on the steam forums about said issues and F5-ing the hell out of that too.

Challenge accepted. I hate that table.

 

[MrNinjaSquirrel]

i was obsessed with wanting to walk around in villages with my weapons out.

I have that problem too, if you catch my drift

I think my post about L4D on SD nuked Steam

y u post on SD? y u do dis?

Now that you mention it, Portal was actually the very first and free game that I got on steam

Same here actually, back in the good 'ol days of no backlog

 

[xCappax]

I have no idea who you are.. lol

lol I'm not a regular steam thread poster im slowly integrating myself into here tho I was more of a 360 forum guy :k

 

[BrownDerby]

I woke up early cause I wasn't feeling well and I guess Steam's under the weather, too. Take a glass of water and go back to bed, Steam!
