Welcome to the Steam Deal Thread V5! You can find link to past threads at the bottom of this post. 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.

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.

Can't be sure because the page errors out after 4 seconds but I believe getgamesgo has a saints row the third dlc bundle (complete) for 1.40 something.
 
I'm seeing it too.

Game for $10,bundle of DLC for $1.50
(not sure how much DLC, page does not work)
The question is will Steam beat that price. SR:TT will most likely be a deal. Will they beat 11.50 for the everything?http://getgamesgo.com/category/saints-row-3-sale


Pride of Nations for 2.50 and .75 for the Civil War DLC, it looks kinda of plain and deep, like my 98 CD-ROM copy of Axis and Allies.

Does it take a really long time?
 
Are any of the Darksiders 2 DLC worth it? Supposedly Death Rides is good to get since the DLC is accessed early in the game but just wanted other CAG opinions.
 
FYI the Amazon OCTOFUN1 coupon only works once per account. Since I already used it for Darksiders 2 and Amazon hasn't yet matched the Spec Ops 7.40 price from GameFly, I bought it off of GameFly with coupon 2GFT82012 to make it $5.99.

FYI both games are Steamworks.

I've been waiting to pick up the dlc so I'm jumping on this faster than a russian whore.
 
[quote name='sunasun']...so I'm jumping on this faster than a russian whore.[/QUOTE]
As long as you aren't trying to circumvent regional pricing. This goes against whore's ToS. They can remove that notch from your belt if so.
 
[quote name='louiedog']I'd wait for a drop. It started off great but it's short and the last half isn't that good. Assuming $15 like XBLA, that's too much.[/QUOTE]
Ah, good to know. I'll wait for a $5 price at least before I bite then.

where is GGG anyway? never bought from them.
 
[quote name='6er']where is GGG anyway? never bought from them.[/QUOTE]

They are a UK site. You wont have problems buying from there as there MSRP is the same or higher than ours in NA. Publishers don't care about that, they just care about the regions where the games are dirt cheap (Russia and surrounding countries mainly) and that is where you can run into problems with TOS.
 
[quote name='warreni']Hm. Any thoughts on the graphic novels in BeMine 5? I already have Tropico 3 and Kings Bounty, so I'm trying to figure out whether the GNs and Strangers Wrath are worth the $5.[/QUOTE]

I haven't enjoyed a single panel of any of the previous ones, but I'm picky.

[quote name='Preedatore']I was just attempting a poor joke at the russian whore part.[/QUOTE]

And I was going to take the piss out of sunasun about disparaging Russian sex worker culture, but I'll pass this time.


Today's Daily and THQ Daily are so underwhelming, no one's mentioned them so far. I concur. With myself.
 
[quote name='Flowette']Friday night is about Adventures of Shuggy. (it was in a recent Indie Royale bundle)

This game is fun![/QUOTE]

Is this gaming session in conjunction with drugs or something? I think it can get tedious at times but, either way, enjoy!
 
Going to rip through Spec Ops The Line this weekend. Been wanting to play this and the Gamefly deal made me finally buy it. Wont have much time too if I don't know with Xcom and Dishonored both coming out on Tuesday
 
[quote name='Seraphym']Upcoming BL2 shift codes!

Specifically, we'll be posting codes on 10/5 at 6PM and 11PM CT and on 10/6 at 5AM, 11AM and 3PM CT.[/QUOTE]

Only more tempting to have it preloaded. I have the files...LET ME PLAY STEAM!!!

This is awesome! ugh 11 more days :bouncy:[/QUOTE]
I've been so bummed about not being able to play BL2 (since my gaming laptop is still being built/in the mail), but you just made my day! You helped me realize that by the time my system gets here, Gaige will be out, and she can be my first character! :D

Just what I was gonna say. It's a solid 6-8 hour game.

Pre-ordered through Green Man Gaming, and they don't seem to have keys available yet. Alas, I must wait.

Do they send keys prior to launch day for preload?

I hope so... that install size is looking daunting on my current connection.

The GameFly code is 1/per account as well.
 
Gah, stubbornly sticking with my Newegg preorder of XCOM. Want bad, but if it doesn't show up on release day at least it means more time screwing around in BL2.
 
XCOM is forcing me to play/finish games with large HDD footprints so that I can uninstall them and throw them in the completed category.

Finally finished Darkness II last night and am knee deep in War for Cybertron now.

EDIT:

[quote name='pantsattack']I'm pumped hearing Weekend Confirmed and Giant Bomb hinting the games coming out next week are good. Hello, Dishonored![/QUOTE]

Yeah, all of Giant Bomb's pre-release coverage of XCOM has been pretty glowing. Their quicklook EX and the demo were what convinced me to pre-order. I tend to only buy about three games new/full-priced per year. So far this year it's only been XCOM and Mass Effect 3. (Technically got Torchlight 2 Day 1, but at 12.75 with Gamersgate 4-pack so I don't know that that counts.)

I love Spec Ops: The Line. I wound up playing it over a few more sessions than I might have; I wanted to let some of the heavier parts sink in.

Cool! That's actually really exciting to be able to start the game with the new class!

Are any of these cheap GMG games worthwile for trade-in fodder?

New Shift code!

I wish you could have had even an illusion of choice for the heaviest part.

It's kind of clear what's going on when it happens if you're paying attention.

That was frustrating.

It really does do morality and real consequences a lot better than any other shooter out there, though. I enjoyed it a lot.

Thanks for posting the shift code!
 
BeMine5 pack is great. One of the best packs I've bought so far for $5. I've just always wanted Stranger's Wrath and the extra games everyone else seems to want are just a bonus.

[quote name='SeymourGams']My library says "Tropico 3- Steam Special Edition" and if I click on the gamehub, that's the store page it takes me to...[/QUOTE]

yup confirmed. looks like an interesting game

Awesome, it's up now.
 
[quote name='BrolyB593']Having it preloaded makes the wait that much more difficult![/QUOTE]

At least I won't have to wait 8 hours after it releases to download it. ;)
