Good chance to get cheap games. Nothing really nabbing my interests yet, but there's some goodies up there and more on the way.

Yeah, great opportunity for anyone who hasn't played Hotline to nab it.

Doh!  Beat met to it, Leon!  Aw, man.  I guess I should take down ol' George Dubyah from my profile pic.

I've got my eye on three main games (Dark Souls, Far Cry 3, and Saints Row The Third) and about a million other games.  All I got is $18.01! Gotta make it last!


UPDATE:  GAHHH!  Just went and looked at the Weekly Humble Bundle sale.  All the Avernum and Geneforge games are there!  Basically some of the largest, most hardcore old-school PC style RPGs in existence!  I can almost hear my wife's eyes rolling right now...

Apparently amazon is having their own sale, matching prices with Steam and offering a 15% discount if you use the code "gooncave" if that piques anyone's interest.

Good call, thanks, man. 

Doesn't look like they are price matching everything but it's nice to have options.  Not that it would matter to most people but I just wanted to point out that if you don't make the purchase directly from Steam, you won't be eligible for the Summmer Sale trading cards/badge.  Again, I know most wouldn't care but thought I'd point it out.

Yeah dude, I have $17 in my Steam wallet after buying Hotline Miami and Fez but I have a gift card for BestBuy that I think is about to become a Steam GC. 

Dark Souls was 75% off yesterday on a flash sale and all summer sale deals repeat so I'd hold out for that.  Far Cry 3 was $20 i think.  Sound like you missed the humble THQ bundle that had SR3.  Good luck with your pickups man.

...just want to point out for those that asked for it in the past, we have a nice shiny collection tool for Steam.
Perhaps some people should be using it? Wink

I totally missed that we had this.  Jarvis, cancel my plans for the evening, I'm entering my Steam collection into RFGen.

No fake, Jake.  Last time I went through it he had only missed on game.  I'll be entering my games in soon.  And I promise I'll turn the lights off when I leave Tongue

I watched Dark Souls come and then go.  Just couldn't make up my mind, but it I still have the 7.49 when it comes around the horn again I'll pick it up.  Far Cry 3 will have to wait, as I want to overhaul my PC before I play it (new VC, new mobo and RAM).  So many games and so little money.  Oh, well.

FWIW, we still need to support the other digital distribution platforms. There's a lot of work I need to do though before I want to start going all out on everything.
Unfortunately for me though, I can't allow myself to get into Steam. I have to focus on only one major current-gen platform if I want to play the games I want without forming a huge backlog.

BLOPS2 - 50% off! Ooh, big savings! Now US$49.99. Hmm... pass.

The only really cheap games that I want are games I already have. Tongue
