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.

[quote name='phantom4']thx for your list, almost missed out on scratches and still life, cant pass those up :)

hope im not missing out on any other horror/mystery type games[/QUOTE]

There is also the prequel to Still Life, Post Mortem and Dark Fall: Lost Souls.
 
[quote name='supershammy']Saints Row 2 is NO LONGER the worst port. It is a very good port now because it has been thoroughly, THOROUGHLY patched by a fan, IdolNinja, who also added a SHITLOAD of new content.

Enjoy![/QUOTE]

Oh thanks for posting that. I have a copy sitting in my inventory that I got from a trade and I was kinda reluctant to add it to my library. I was leaning towards just trading it off.
 
[quote name='shortyman920']Ok thanks a lot. I took a look at some more gameplay vids and I'll prolly pass on it even at $2.5. It just doesn't look like I'll spend much time playing it.[/QUOTE]

If you want something with more RPG and more Action and even RTS throw in. Check out Space Rangers 2:Reboot it is a really awesome and deep game. Where every game you play is actually randomly generated and different.

Imagine Masters of Orion. If it was Freespace mixed with some RTS elements and Choose your own adventure elements as well as a trading simulator. No game has ever had as much depth and complexity as that one 4.99 game has.

P.S Also the RTS planet battles when you invade are my favorite as it is done with robots so you end up designing your own robots you want to make as well with over 1000 different ways to make each unit

[quote name='Sir_Fragalot']fuck Civ V. Not that it's a bad game, more so that once you start, you don't stop :lol:. Just one more turn.....

Also Ys: Origins is great.[/QUOTE]

I've only played 7 hrs of Civ. III. It's already ruined my social life. :)
 
Final Tally:
Sam and Max S1-3
Binding of Isaac + DLC
Half-Life 2: Ep 1 + Ep 2
(HL2: Deathmatch and Deathmatch Source) - which I randomly got from steam when I added the two to my library, so I'll include those.
Crusader Kings 2
Qube
KOTOR
The Longest Journey + Dreamfall
Far Cry 2 Fortune's edition
Oblivion GOTY
Morrowind GOTY
Prince of Persia Sands of Time
Syberia 1 + 2
Saint's Row 3 Franchise Pack

Damage: Just about $75.

It's kinda a weird collection of games now that I'm looking at it all together. My priciest purchase of the bunch ends up being SR3 and Sam and Max, which also happens to be my first and final purchase of the sale.

Now, off to put some of these in my library now!


...even though I still have to finish off LA Noire so I can actually make some room on my hard drive.

Damn you guys for posting about the Saints Row pack. I thought I was done spending money! Now time for some games, as my weekend has just started :D. Quick question which of the Ys games should I play first?
 
[quote name='sunghost']LOL I was thinking the same thing. I bought it instantly because I didn't know how long the price would last. To be fair though, it may take a while to get it from emwearz.. I'm sure he has a LOT of requests by now. By then, who knows if the mistake will be corrected?![/QUOTE]

Getting swamped, still valid, still doing it, might have to wait 5-10 mins, have to buy them one by one and some people are getting 3-5 copies at a time.
 
I just want to say thank you guys all for the time we all spent on this sale and making it fun. Hopefully my shenanigans didn't annoy anyone too much and if it did I apologize and I hope things get back to normal for everyone tomorrow.

Extra special thanks to those who gifted me games. I absolutely in no way sent out the gifts I did with any expectation in return so those who didn't gift anything back please don't feel bad at all, it made me happen to do it! For those who did I really appreciate it.

You guys all rock!

EDIT: I gave it a 10, was kinda thinking a 9, but I came to my senses.

EDIT 2: Come on Motoki, write us all a fancy review too[/QUOTE]

Heh, I am beat for tonight. It's a been a day and the SR3 was a nice way to end the sale. I'll probably try and post something at some point. I don't want to stack the deck and maybe part of the reason I am so impressed with it is because my expectations were in the toilet, but I really do think it is quite good for what it is.

I did post on the developer's blog about it. I'll definitely look out for any projects he does in the future.
 
After scouring the hidden gems thread on the Steam forum here are my final (presumably) purchases:

Alpha Prime $1.24
Penumbra Collector's Pack $4.99
Foreign Legion: Buckets of Blood $1.49
Hydrophobia Prophecy $1.24
Larva Mortus $1.24
Dark Fall: Lost Souls $3.24
Still Life Collection $3.74
Syberia 2 $2.49 (Already have part 1 around here somewhere)

Come up with a total for the entire sale later...probably end up around $110-$120 with $40 of it coming from trade-ins at Gamestop towards Steam wallet funds.

I'm still debating on several cheap titles including Trials 2, SPAZ, Broken Sword Trilogy, and Cricket Revolution, and the Still Life Bundle. I probably won't get around to any of them before the winter sale though, so that's what's holding me back.
 
I voted for GTA TWICE for the cummunity deal hoping it would come back. Shame I missed it the one time it was up for the collection.
 
Bought for myself:
* Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition - $9.99
* Project Freedom - 74 cents.

Bought for my credit cardless friend:
* Fallout 3 GOTY - $4.99
* Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition - $9.99
* Batman Franchise - $24.99
* Company of Heroes - $2.50
* Legend of Grimrock - $6.25
* Double Fine Bundle - $7.49
* Just Cause 2 - $3.75

While I praised Steam for their interesting concept earlier, they ended up making it boring and anti-climatic with too many repeat deals, lack of overall variety, and Flash Deals that took too long to conclude. They should've been turning those over in four hours or less, not this 12 hour junk. How is half a day a "flash deal?"
 
[quote name='Leftylikesgames']There is also the prequel to Still Life, Post Mortem and Dark Fall: Lost Souls.[/QUOTE]

I can't find any info that Dark Fall is related to the Still Life universe at all, though Post Mortem definitely is. Thanks for the heads up, definitely getting that one.

Not everybody can check Steam every 4 hours. This sale was damn good IMO.
 
[quote name='fishphoenix']I'm assuming this was the last community vote and there won't be another one in ~25 minutes?[/QUOTE]

Probably not - it looks like the language in the voting box has changed. Didn't it used to mention that you should come back and vote for the next deal?
 
[quote name='JasonTerminator']Not everybody can check Steam every 4 hours. This sale was damn good IMO.[/QUOTE]

I think they should have turned over in 4 hours or less during the day/evening and then had 12 hour windows overnight.

NOOOOO Fallout New Vegas :(

But then it'll be triple the amount of repetition, and I'd really have no sleep.

Not that repetition is a bad thing entirely - I've caught some games I missed (or couldn't decide in an earlier deal) because of them, so I guess if you think of flash/community deals as an implementation to the daily deals as a second (or more) chance to grab a title you missed rather than something unique that's meant to excite a buyer, then they ain't bad.
 
[quote name='Sir_Fragalot']fuck Civ V. Not that it's a bad game, more so that once you start, you don't stop :lol:. Just one more turn.....

[/QUOTE]

Exactly- It's very hard to walk away from it.

Last minute purchase will be:

Legend of Fae

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale- $5.42
Fallout 3 - Game of the Year- $5.42
The Witcher 2- $17.38
Half-Life 1- $2.71
Trine 2-$4.07
Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes- $4.07

Total: 55.36

Mount and Blade: Warband

Traded for:
Bad Rats (Harvest key)
Bunch Of Heroes (Hydrophobia)

Gifts given:
Lugaru
Project Freedom
Train Simulator

I only spent around $55 dollars this sale. Which I'm happy about. I'm trying to avoid adding games to my library that I'll never play, but look really shinny. The only game I did that with this sale was Fallout 3. I've already beat it on 360. Though that was without the DLC and ability to use mods- my addiction grabbed onto those excuses (I'll never play it again). I guess I can add Half Life 1 and maybe Chaos Theory into the shiny mantel pieces I will not play. It's hard to get around to some games when there is so much in my BL. And, just one more turn.
 
In all my 7 years of being a Steam customer, I've never asked for a refund...except now.

Sent in a ticket regarding Saints Row The Third Franchise Pack price. It's the only game where the price has dropped lower than all the times during its rotations in this sale. I bought it as a daily on the first day of the sale for $24.99. Asked for a refund of the price difference of the current $13.29 price.

Pretty fucking annoying to say the least...

On a side note...I think I'll bite on SPAZ. I loved Star Control back in the day and this reminds me of that game. Anyone have any input on SPAZ?
 
[quote name='JasonTerminator']Not everybody can check Steam every 4 hours. This sale was damn good IMO.[/QUOTE]

Agreed. 4 hours or less is nuts to me. Sorry but this isn't Amazon's console Tuesday flash deals.

I pretty much lived on this thread, I'm not even going to try to hide it, and yet there were even times that I was away from it for well over 4 hours.

I think some people have unrealistic expectations of what the sale should be. They still had more of their store on sale than any other digital downloads retailer. There were a lot of deals to go through. For those of us religiously following the deals I agree the repeats were disappointing at times but I'd rather have them than not. There was a certain comfort in knowing that if I missed a deal once it would be very likely to return.

If they had super short window deals I think I and probably a lot of others would have been very annoyed at missing out on some of them if we couldn't catch the ones we really wanted.

Sure there are probably some areas they could improve but this is the first time they've experimented with deals beyond the daily deals and those for the duration of the sale. I am willing to cut them a little slack.
 
Aside from anarchyoblivion's damage report, I'm surprised there hasn't been mention of the Kohan Warchest (3 great strategies from TimeGate before they made Section 8 and the FEAR expansions for $5) and the Novalogic Everything Pack.

The Delta Force series, Joint Ops, tank-jet-chopper sims, and Tachyon (with 100% more Bruce Campbell) for under $18?

Yes, thank you.

Yeah, sorry I should worded that differently, I just meant that it was another horror/mystery game on sale. Dark Fall itself is a sequel though. The rest are not on steam though, but rather GOG.
 
I loved spaz have sunk more than 100 hours into multiple playthroughs since the winter sale.

The demo is worth a shot if you think you might be interested, really not sure what I can say about it.

ys origins is apparently a little easier than oath so maybe start with that one, it's also newer and a prequel to the rest of them.
 
Requests have slowed down now, if you still need SR3 Collection for the $10.79 the wait would be back to around 5 minutes.

Mainly aimed to the people who added me on steam, then deleted me when I told them about the long waits.
 
I love to complain about the steam sale as much as anyone, but even I can admit the me not enjoying this sale had more to do with me already buying everything I wanted earlier this year than the sale outright sucking. I'm still dissapointed they cut back on their percentage discounts and store wide sale, but it wasn't half bad.
 
[quote name='dejeckt']Time Gentlemen, Please! and Ben There, Dan That! Special Edition $1.00
Shamelessly taken from steam boards (credit goes to... dooshbag45 from steam boards).

For those itching to spend $1.00 on steam.[/QUOTE]

A $1 well spent too! They're pretty good, not to mention funny, especially if you played a lot of adventure games and are nostalgic about them. Very tongue-in-cheek and snarky humor that made me laugh aloud a few times.
