Yeah, there's a lot of hints that it's this thursday...but then there's weeklong deals...though the list this week is damn short.

Give me cute or give me...something?

Good, I've been waiting for Dawnguard to go on sale.

That was awesome.

No, that was spectacular.

No, that was (words I don't have the vocabulary to describe how good it was)

God. Damn. It.

I've been spanked for a tax surprise and a mortgage surprise. My wallet is already whipped in a corner. And I bet this year they do some freaking amazing stuff too.

Bugger.

Confirmed with Strike Vector's Midweek Madness ending on 10 AM on Thursday.

And although this video is a year old, still relevant.

Huh, I thought it would be in July. Well, no complaints for it being a little early.

I'm just going to buy a small handful of very specific games - provided they're on sale, of course. My wishlist is huge, but few of them are games I actually think I'm going to purchase when I really put my mind to it.

I've already spent way too much on Gog sales, to be honest.

Jesus on that price for Tiny and Big. Every sale I see it for a wildly low price. Is it really that bad?

I just lost my job so I need to save my money.

But I also don't think I'll be able to resist the temptation of sale.

So I'm budgeting myself $20 for it. There are really only 2 or 3 games I'm hoping to get anyway.

It's quite good. It's just been out for a while and wasn't expensive to begin with.

Just because a game is cheap when on sale doesn't mean it's bad. Look at Just Cause 2.

Anyone who assigns themselves loads of character tropes is someone to be worried about.

I love Just Cause 2, but I'm still stuck on that level that starts with the plane. I cannot fly that stupid thing.

If I recall correctly that took me a while to do.

Wasn't easy, that's for sure. Still completed the game though.

[up][up]Are you using the keyboard of the controller? Because that game was not meant for keyboard play, especially given how many vehicles and stunts you'll be using frequently.

Have $26 in my Steam Wallet, looking to get a few games, hopefully shooting for a good enough deal for South Park: The Stick of Truth.

Oh, and another relevant video:

Well, there is a chance this sale will not make me poor... I couldn't come up with anything I really want. Of course, there's some money in the Wallet to be sure and obsessive checking of sales will occur anyway. surprised

And damn, gaben.tv is amazing this year... [lol]

Yeah, it is, isn't it? Bloody thing, I have to watch it every day now.

I wonder how the real Gabe Newell thinks about it though? Though it does make him look awesome.

I do not know what he thinks of THOSE Memes, but he is pretty cool from what is taped of him when found playing on a TF 2 Valve server. He does not like being called fat though, not to the point of it being a berserk button, but, you know. It seems like a point of contention for the guy.

I remember the lesson I learned from the winter sale, I'm not going to wait until the last day to buy everything because they'll just put the special sales on the last day.

He doesn't really like them.

Well, assuming that it does start today, it'll be in about two hours.

Honestly, I'm not entirely sure what I'll pick up, since I already have most of what I want. Only thing that pops out is The Stomping Land, but we'll see.
