Keep hearing conflicting reports of when the Summer Sale would start, like either this coming Thursday or the week afterwards...

The Midweek Madness though doesn't end at 10 AM PST though, so it may be next week after all...

I guess now is speculatin' time!

It's a Steam sale. Multiple times eachyear they throw a great big event with lots of games up for sale at ridiculously small prices.

Yeah, and you get to complete special achievements for the chance to win a daily raffle in which every game you have on your wishlist is given to you, and other stuff.

There have been two massive sales every year since 2010. One for summer and one for winter.

Huh...

A look into Steam Forums indicates that it might not even be until the 12th...

All the sudden I feel a bit embarrassed. I guess we can still throw guesses as to what occurs.

Of course this sale means that now would be a good time to organize one's Wishlist.

Honestly, I was more interested in the diary entries than the actual sale last year(mostly because I have no money).

[up]Play the gmes, get special achievements, you can win games.

I updated my Wishlist with a bunch of Paradox games and other startegy ones. Should be fun to play this one.

I couldn't buy any games to play. Besides, I had enough games anyway.

Unless they give out a REALLY good deal on one of the better games in their library, I'll likely be sitting this one out. As it stands, I have several games on this computer that I've yet to play enough or finish.

Saving my energy for the sale. Even then, I'm mostly happy with what I have, and I have one hell of a backlog.

At least a discount on Rayman Origins could do nicely though...

I can't think of any currently-released games that are on my to-buy list, but we'll see. Something on the idle wishlist might receive an incredible sale.

Wonder if Achron, A Valley Without Wind and other titles will be discounted or not...

Is it any good? Bear in mind I have played Legend of Mana, which seems sort of similar, in concept if not in execution, and loved it.

Guys, anyone who's played LA Noire. Should I just get the base game or get the DLC as well?

The dlc is more expensive than the base game for me. $3.74 for Vanilla and $4.49 for the DLC bundle.

I'd say get it. If you enjoy the crime solving in LA Noire you'll enjoy the extra cases.

So you'd personally recommend LA Noire complete for $8.25?

Talby Since: Jun, 2009
#25: Jun 27th 2012 at 1:36:16 AM

Yup, for $8.25 it's a steal.
