    Re: Steam Winter Sale

    I'm hoping to get an effectively free game via selling off trading cards. I've made about 19p today from the winter sale cards, maybe in another week I might have an extra £1

    Re: Steam Winter Sale

    Dag nammit! Tother half really wanted Skyrim so I gave her her Steam gift card Christmas present early and we forked out £20 for it 2 days ago. Don't think she's spent very long on it yet so may see if we can get it refunded and buy again.

    Re: Steam Winter Sale

    Anyone else get an email about things on their wishlist being in the sale? Anyone else look at the things it says are on their wishlist and think "what on earth is THAT and why is it on my wishlist..."?

    Just me then?

    You're not alone by any means! I have about half a dozen of those emails and I'm reviewing my wishlist as I speak!

    I bought Nation Red, Quake Live and Lyne all for under £5! Lyne is a good change of pace brain teaser that will keep me coming back for more.

    Re: Steam Winter Sale

    Mine has Titan Quest: Immortal Throne, which is understandable as I played the demo of Titan Quest and quite enjoyed it (actually, just spotted that TQ Gold Edition is also on sale ). But the other one was Nexus: The Jupiter Incident

    OTOH, I've promised to install and play every game in my Steam library at least once before buying anything new ... so I guess I know what I'm doing over the Christmas holidays

    A good approach to have; at the moment I have a 23% completion rate lol. I'm half tempted by this though:

    http://store.steampowered.com/app/368360

    It's pricey for what it is though, I'll probably wait for 75%-90% off.

    I was hoping for better deals... But I still bought FO: New Vegas, Saints Row 4.
    I'll save money for future sales.

    Let us know how you get on with the Long Dark, was on the other half's short list but as we went for Dying Light we thought it was too many survival games at once!

    Oh and we did get the money back and buy the game again, good job she's only managed an hour on Skyrim that evening!
