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='darkling23']Isn't Thief 4 being made by Eidos Montreal? The folks who made the utterly brilliant Deus Ex: Human Revolution? I have nothing but high hopes after that.

How did you come to this prediction?[/QUOTE]
Thief 4 is being made by Eidos Montreal and let me say, I loved the first Deus Ex so I had very high expectations of Eidos Montreal for Deus Ex HR and they delivered 100%. I suspect Thief 4 will be of same quality.
 
[quote name='momouchi']This is way more deals than we ever got before. They keep repeating popular ones in case people missed them at other times. I think it is a good idea, although more variety certainly wouldn't hurt. ;)[/QUOTE]

As I said yesterday, the flash sales are here as a replacement for the repeat day. I'd bet my right arm that there wont be a repeat day on the final day because they've already been spreading the repeats throughout the sale. If people just look it as mini-repeat days, they wouldn't get so pissed when games show up for encores.
 
[quote name='Ralph444']Pssshhh I want the original rollercoaster tycoon plus expansions.

Far and away the better game. 3 kinda.... sucked..[/QUOTE]

The originals were some of my favorite games ever. So many fond memories as a child :applause:
 
I was under the impression that rebellion has all the content in sins trilogy - is this true? If so, I feel less inclined to buy trilogy, and instead just wait for a price drop on rebellion.

I actually don't mind the idea of voting for repeat deals for the people who've missed it. I mean, since the ones that fail (if they haven't showed previously) will just most probably come up as dailies anyways. What's the rush on buying so quickly with all that I've already bought anyways? (Not to mention it takes me a long time to download games with my internet.)
 
[quote name='keroppilee']Payday. I missed my chance at it for 5$. Maybe it will win the vote. Anyone here have an opinon on it? One of my friends didnt like it, but a whole bunch of my other friends bought it recently for 5$ at amazon.[/QUOTE]
Its very similar to L4D including the fact that you face a ridiculous number of enemies. Seriously there can't be that many cops in one city.

Don't get this game if you plan on playing this singleplayer only. The AI guys with you are terrible. They'll follow you around but they barely ever kill anyone and don't do objective so you'll do all the work.

I don't know how it is online with randoms but I played it with a couple buddies and we had fun so I can at least recommend it if you're going to play it with friends or CAG or whatever gaming community you like.
 
With all the extra settings off and the lowest details, I still can't get Trainworks to run properly. Maximum FPS I get at 1920x1080 is 14-15 >.<

I can't believe this train game is more demanding than Crysis >.

Wait for the price drop.
 
[quote name='tcrash247']Voted for Payday, looks hella fun.[/QUOTE]


It is awesome. Not your typical run and gun. Actually need a strategy. I love it.
 
So for this voting period I really have no dog in this hunt. So, the first person to message me via STEAM i will vote for your choice. Go, now run faster you slow bastard!!!!!
 
Awwww.... I already own Medievel Total War II and Napoleon Total war, and the bundle is still less then what it would cost for me to buy all I'm missing. What are yall's thoughts on Empire Total war. I've heard some mixed things about that one; it's the only one I might not get.

I'm also getting Recettear, Simcity, and the Thief Collection.
 
Something that is a little irritating about the community choice sales is the repeats. Reasoning being, the flash sales work great as extra chances to grab something you missed. Why do the community choice sales need to do the same thing?

It would be nice if you got extra chances at sales in the flash sales, and NEW choices in the community choice sale. As it stands, they both are consistently rehashing the same sales over and over (which the occasional new contender).
 
[quote name='buckythekat']the whole pirate aspect is making me seriously consider Risen 2 even though it's only 33% off[/QUOTE]

I like how it is exactly a penny cheaper buying the bundle instead of everything separate.

I'll second Payday on playing with friends.

I split a 4 pack with some buddies and we've been playing it online lately with voice chat. It's a ton of fun. Definitely challenging, though.

Also, there is a progression system (a really convoluted one, to be honest). I don't know if that's a pro or con to you, but worth noting that there are all sorts of weapon/accessory/character unlocks as you rack up time playing.
 
[quote name='dopehat']Sim City 4 work with windows 7 64 bit? I am hearing varied reports anyone have first hand knowledge?[/QUOTE]

It runs fine for me on Win 7 64 and I didn't mess with anything either. Even for those games where people say it has this or that issue on Win 7 64 I've always managed to find a solution by just searching the Steam forums for a few minutes.

Sooo when is Arma 2 going to go on a flash or community deal? I'm not really that interested in the main game, I just want to try out the day z mod if the price is right.

I was just about to post the same thing. I saw the article on ArsTechnica and it made me poop a little. It's the zombie game I always wanted.

I will be getting ARMA II Combined Ops before the sale ends. Just determines if it goes cheaper or not.
 
[quote name='mac995555']Stalker...

Tempted, Any Opinions?[/QUOTE]
Yes. Get it. If you only get one, I'd get SoC. If you get two, get SoC and CoP.

It's a fairly open world FPS with mild RPG elements. Much more bleak than Fallout with the retro-future aesthetic, laser-wielding super mutants and punk-haired Raiders replaced by abandoned Soviet-era buildings, AK-47s and tired balaclava wearing treasure hunters huddled around campfires. Oh, and snorks. Friggin' snorks :censored:

I personally recommend getting the Complete 2009 mod for it. Others feel differently but it's widely recommended.
 
So I was looking at Steamgifts and saw there was a ton of shadowgrounds codes out there. Apparently Frozenbyte had a contest thing going to get steam keys for their games. It's currently out of codes, but they say check twitter and such and more might show back up.

So the keys are probably behind a minigame at http://summerseal.com/. And don't be a douchecanoe like the steamgifts people and get the free code and give it away in an attempt to raise contributor status. Good luck.
 
I honestly don't expect Arma II to get a steeper discount. It's stayed mostly in the top 10 seller spots the entire sale. So it's selling great even with such a little discount.
 
You DayZ people really, really should not get your hopes up for some amazing sale. The thing is selling like hotcakes with little or no sale so there is very little reason for them to slash the price to ridiculously low levels right now. It might go a little bit lower than it is now but don't expect 75% off. Bohemia didn't even do that for the helicopter game and that's nowhere near as popular.
 
[quote name='Echotech83']Sooo when is Arma 2 going to go on a flash or community deal? I'm not really that interested in the main game, I just want to try out the day z mod if the price is right.[/QUOTE]

They are probably waiting for the last day of the sale to close out with a bang, at least that's my guess


hope you guys are voting the Darkness II, I missed it when it was a daily deal
 
[quote name='warreni']Anybody know how the Invincible DLC for SR3 works? It is just codes or does it automatically apply? I don't really want these cheats on all the time if I pick this up.[/QUOTE]

You have to activate it on your (in-game) phone. Beware that if you do you will not be able to get any achievements with that character. Also, many of the bonuses it grants can be gained through upgrades in the game. It's possible to do some ridiculous things with it, but it's not worth money, imo.

[quote name='Ralph444']I have a disc version of simcity 4 deluxe.... from like 7 years ago....

There's no way to register this on steam right?[/QUOTE]

You cannot

[quote name='sotc1988'] Also was about to pull the trigger on Call of Pripyat but it's $5 if you don't own Shadow of Chernobyl through Steam.[/QUOTE]

You can do the same thing if you own Clear Sky. Pripyat is $3.74 in my Steam client.

[quote name='dreamcaster']Sim City 4. Worth it? I guess I didn't realize it was that old![/QUOTE]

Yes it's old, but it's a great game. It holds up very well.
 
[quote name='Arben']What's the learning curve like on Coconut Queen? Am I going to be sinking a lot of time in just to learn how to play?[/QUOTE]

Not sure if serious? But no, there's no learning curve really.

I saw it earlier but was on a crappy work computer that really doesn't handle flash very well. Now that I'm home I got all excited to try it only to come up with it being done for the day. *sigh*

You are a hero. I really want to pick this up also.
 
I hear the DayZ mod is more difficult on the Steam version of ArmA II - like you have to add it as a shortcut to a non-Steam game etc. For me it sounds like far too much of a headache.
 
OKay, does anyone else have 2 copies of San Andreas in their library? I have the one that I play, and the other one just says "this game is not available on your platform" and I don't know how to remove it, does anyone know?
 
[quote name='Motoki']Really? That sounds odd. I didn't notice anything like that with my setup. Maybe ask around on the Steam forum there among the train peoples.
[/QUOTE]

I know right! Installing the beta 304 driver so helpfully that fixes the problem :whistle2:# But otherwise it seems it is one of those games dont only use one core so my quad core computer becomes a hindrance then as like each single core isn't as strong I guess. /shrug

Think I have seen it said that there is a Mac and a PC version and no way to hide the one you don't need.

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.

It's true, wait for the price drop on Rebellion, and then you can play the previous content with the shiny new graphics engine. As an added bonus the game will properly support multi-core/cpu setups. Wishlist it.

[quote name='LazyTriangle']They are probably waiting for the last day of the sale to close out with a bang, at least that's my guess[/QUOTE]
I think that's dead on. They'll let it sit at 20% off until the last day, and then they'll put it up as a daily for 33% off.

Why? Because people are impatient; it's selling by probably the thousands by these impatient people. Then when the price drops the last day, all the people who weren't quite sure about it will jump on it, and the patient people will get what they were waiting for.

Flawless business strategy, actually.
