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.

A few 75% off games I'm currently considering:



Grand Ages: Rome
Strategy/Sim

Looks cool but I think it's only multiplayer?


http://store.steampowered.com/app/23450/?snr=1_7_suggest__13

Heroes of Annihilated Empires:
Looks like an interesting RTS/RPG hybrid.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/4800/?snr=1_7_suggest__13

Robin Hood The Legend of Sherwood:


Looks like a good strategy game

Puzzlie Indie Pack

http://store.steampowered.com/sub/2573

Order of War:

WWII Strategy

http://store.steampowered.com/app/34600/
 
I have $13.18 to spend on the sale, what should I get?

Edit: I already have Portal 2 and Trine 2, and I won't be able to download them anytime soon because I have a really small daily download allowance cap.
 
Got a few things I still want to get (including dat Unreal Deal Pack), but holding off for now (Flash Sales and alla that). Will probably make my final purchases this evening.

The original Cave Story isn't a Flash game o_O;

I got order of war when it was cheap at gamersgate and from the 3 or 4 missions I've played of it I've enjoyed it. For $2.49 if you enjoy strategy games set in WWII you should get your moneys worth out of it.
 
Well unless a flash deal comes along to my liking, i think I am done. Ended up with:

Warlock Master of the Arcane
Trine 2
Binding of Issac Wrath of the Lamb
Ys Origin
Walking Dead (Awesome, can't wait for Ep 3)
Fortune Summoners
F3AR
Oblivion GOTY

Still fence sitting on Arkham Asylum
 
What do you guys normally get as purchase description/name on your bank accounts for steam purchase?
I normally get "Valve Software" but this "Steam Games WWWSTEAMPOWER" showed up yesterday.

I think its one of the games I bought but being suspicious/curious.
 
Are there people in the Eurozone that can help with regional pricing? I posted something in the steam trading thread, but I don't know how often those get checked by the few international CAGs that we have. It must be getting pretty close to bedtime for a few of them over there, so I thought I post a request for help over here as well.

I'm looking to pick up:
Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands Digital Deluxe Edition
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
&
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Soulstorm

My Paypal is ready & waiting. PM me if you can help.

And I apologize for bringing this here. Ordinarily I wouldn't, but time is running out on some of these deals.


Edit: All set. Thanks Bilbo1

Thanks, I meant Deathspank. Guess I'll wait until the last moment to see if it becomes a flash deal.
 
Anyone have any feedback on the lego games? They all decent or are some not so great? Also is the Hawx 2 DLC pretty much just for multiplayer or would I get access to the extra planes in SP.

Out of my dozens of purchases, I have only one that says that: Dungeons of Dredmor: Realm of the Diggle Gods (an expansion). Maybe a difference between a game and DLC? Not really sure. You should be able to go to your store transaction history and match it up to your bank statement, though.
Edit: It's also the only thing under a dollar that I've ever bought, if that matters.
 
How is that "fixed"? You quoted me verbatim :p

I've played the Mac port myself. My point was that the original version, the one that Cave Story WiiWare and Cave Story+ were based on, was not a Flash game.

By "fixed" he means he went back and edited the original post, so that no one coming along later would be confused. You are correct, Cave Story was not originally a flash game.

Anyway, sorry about that; carry on :p
 
Is there anyone who would be willing to spot me $30 PayPal until late next month? I get paid (usually a week before) around August 26th. It's kinda a lot to ask, but if there's anyone who'd be willing to, I'll gladly pay you for your trouble. ;) PM me if you're willing to help me out! =]

Thanks man, really appreciate the help! :D

[quote name='TraBuch']Anyone recommend the Tale of Tales pack?[/QUOTE]

Out of the three, Played The Path and loved and it. Fatale haven't played yet but looks really fun. The graveyard well that is like a 10 minute "game" but was their first attempt at making a game so isn't bad. But no where near the level of amazing that The Path was. Keep in mind they are also both "Artsy" games as critics call them so even though at least with The Path you can interact with objects in the game world. But the stories of each of the girls is open to interpretation so not really a "adventure" game. Think like Dear Esther(Haven't played it but from peoples comments seems the most well known example) but with more a lot more interaction.

PM sent. :D
 
so looks like this is the last day of the sales? Im still a steam noob so i wanted to make sure i didn't miss the last few i was thinking of:

I was thinking of:

Bard's Tale
Arx Fatalis
Freedom Force
Sid Meyers Pirates
Zeno Clash
and maybe Torchlight


Anyone know if those go on sale regularly? Particularly Torchlight? I can wait on that if need be. I also noticed that Pirates and Freedom force are only 50% off.. would it be better to wait for a 75% sale or is that rare? Im also wondering if anyones played Zeno Clash. Its the only one on the list ive never played before but i heard good things about it. Is it worth getting? I actually heard about it on XBL

Im pretty sure all these are DRM free from what I could tell. THe only game that i was curious about was Torchlight. From what i'm reading some versions had an activation key/limit? Im assuming the steam version doesn't have that?

What i've bought so far:
Star Wars: KOTOR
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition
Carpe Fulger Bundle

[quote name='DirkBelig']I went and checked out Sequence and it looks waaaaaaaaaaay more complicated than I can handle

How is Hard Reset EE? Worth the $3.75 or should I wait for the inevitable price drop to $2.50. I tried the demo and it looked like Serious Sam (in the lots of enemies swarming sense) in the usual Blade Runner world.[/QUOTE]

I didn't enjoy Sequence very much though a lot of others did. It didn't seem complicated - just repetitive and tedious.

Hard Reset is nothing like Serious Sam other than there are guns and you basically unlock a portion of a level and progress. If you like SS just stick to SS. Hard Reset is competent, but a bit generic.

[quote name='Terlan']Anyone have any feedback on the lego games? They all decent or are some not so great? Also is the Hawx 2 DLC pretty much just for multiplayer or would I get access to the extra planes in SP.[/QUOTE]

I've only played Batman and a couple of the Star Wars LEGO games and they all seem to follow the same formula - action adventure with lots of levels and unlocks. They definitely seem to be well made and entertaining.

[quote name='Roll']I've had my eye on this the last (I think) two times it went on sale, but it's likely that it will be 75% off at the winter sale, right? I'd gladly wait if this is the case.[/QUOTE]

More than likely yes, Though it is a really great game bought it full price with no regrets. Plus with the map editor coming out should be seeing a lot more user created dungeons coming to further extend the life of the game.

Cool, thanks for the reply. I think I'll probably pick it up before the end of the sale.

This is what it shows up for me as when I purchased the Fable III Collection a few minutes ago:
VALVE SOFTWARE SEATTLE WAUS Entertainers -$12.49
 
[quote name='Syntax Error']I'm guessing "no" but there's no way to purchase multiple copies of one gift at a time, is there? You need to buy them one by one?[/QUOTE]

[quote name='pantsattack']Man, I can't see how to buy multiple copies of games at once. I'm going to have a lot of $3 checkouts in a minute.[/QUOTE]

No and it's really annoying when you want to do giveaways of multiple copies of a game. Sometimes Steam is pretty stone age about certain things like multiple copies and no cookies being saved on the website etc.

[quote name='Woodlands']Tip: charge up your steam wallet for the full amount ONCE, then make your little purchases through your wallet. Card companies will often flag your card if there are a lot of small purchases in a row like that.[/QUOTE]

I should have thought of that. I am actually shocked that my credit card company does not think that someone from iWin stole my card at this point.

[quote name='Drabelincoln']LOL I don't see it being a flash deal.....there are better odds of Motoki dropping his succulent fruits off on your chin.[/QUOTE]

:shock: Wow the mental imagery there is just...

[quote name='kidrocklive']How often to the Ys games go on sale? I'm thinking of waiting til the Winter sale. Also the fact that Hydrophobia is 75% off makes me want to try and wait til Velvet Assassin is the same since they are both $4.99[/QUOTE]

Nobody really knows on Ys because they are still really new but I would say at minimum twice a year on the big sales. Possibly on a Deal of the Day at some point too, but that's really hard to predict.

Hydrophobia goes on sale every 5 minutes it feels like. Velvet Assasin has been on sale at least a couple of times (outside the big sale) too.

[quote name='Kilvas09']I shouldn't have passed on Skyrim for $30. Most likely won't go on sale again until winter at the same price. I have regrets![/QUOTE]

I wouldn't worry too much, between the Quakecon and the (hopefully) impending release of Dawnguard I think it will see another decent sale soon.
 
[quote name='ben_man587']Fixed. Apparently its been released on a bunch of systems since 2004 including TI Graphing Calculator.[/QUOTE]

I just saw a vid off on youtube of Cave Story running on TI-84...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ep6dNobbuU
I'm not sure even why someone would go through the trouble to make this. I'm guessing too much time in a math class.

Isn't this the last day for Steam sales? Shouldn't the majority of the sales be repeated or up by now, or is it tomorrow (first summer sale).
 
[quote name='Jodou']Lol, who cares when it ends. Far as I'm concerned a 'sale' never started. Worst excuse of a SS to date.[/QUOTE]

My 9 new games beg to differ.
 
[quote name='Kenshindono']I was thinking of:

Bard's Tale
Arx Fatalis
Freedom Force
Sid Meyers Pirates
Zeno Clash
and maybe Torchlight
[/QUOTE]

According to steamprices, Bard's Tale has only been on sale once in the 2+ years the price history data goes back, and that was in March for $5. Freedom Force pack hits this price consistently, but doesn't go lower. Pirates was 75% off in the 2010 winter sale, but hasn't gone that low again since. Zeno Clash and Torchlight have both, IIRC, been in indie bundles and will be again I'm sure, or have a deal.

You can look up price history on steamprices.com and see if you think the deal's worth it in context of its past sales.
 
I'm finally getting the hang of Wizorb. Using the magic powers are really essential for success and figuring out there are secondary powers available when the ball touches the paddle was like a whole new world. Also, you can adjust the paddle speed in the options apart from the difficulty. I thought it must be so slow because a speed up power must be available, but you can just change it. It's lots of fun.

...so... what exactly does earning the summer sale badge do? i'm close to earning it, but would need to join some group. and i need to hit 20 votes, which i'm close to, though i don't know if i missed enough to make it impossible. should i care or is this some meaningless little nothing?

Torchlight was on sale 75% off during this sale I think at least twice. I'm not sure of how often it goes on sale outside of these big sales, though.
Also, if you're interested in Torchlight, its sequel, Torchlight II, comes with a copy of Torchlight when you pre-order it for $20 (could be $15 if you do a 4-way group buy).

Hard Reset is competent, but a bit generic.[/QUOTE]As I said, but apparently you missed, the SS comparison is that instead of the usual "kill one baddie, advance, kill a couple, advance" gameplay, it was more like "aaaaeiiieeee, there are 20 of them, get them off me!"
