STEAM HOLIDAY SALE 2014 IS HERE!

REMEMBER THESE FUCKING RULES IF PLANNING TO BUY A GAME:

1) ONLY BUY GAMES THAT ARE IN DAILY, COMMUNITY, AND FLASH SALES

2) ONLY BUY AT THE LAST DAY OF STEAM SALE (Jan 1, 10AM PST)
(Sale ends on Jan 2, 10AM PST)


IF YOU CAN'T FOLLOW IT THEN YOU'RE A RICH IDIOT.

FOLLOW THOSE RULES AND YOU'LL SURVIVE, ELSE GABEN HUNTS YOU DOWN LIKE THE FILTHY NAZI YOU ARE.

So if I wait for game A till Jan 2nd (Of course if the offers say it last until then) there's a chance for an extra disscount or what? (rookie speaking)

If you want a game, and it isn't showing up as a daily, flash, or community sale, you are waiting until the last day (for the best price).

If you get impatient, buy it, and 4 days later it goes on sale for a bigger discount, complaining about said misfortune due to your own impatience = :banned:

Some stuff you know isn't going to get any cheaper, like Gearcrack Arena, go ahead and buy that whenever you want.

Usually if it's 75%+ off on base sale it's rare that it's a daily deal, especially if it isn't a new or recognizable game.

I'm thinking of picking up Dishonored, but it's on sale until the 2nd, so I'll hold out.

Friggin missed Assassins Creed sale by a few minutes. I was looking at getting number 3 and eventually put it in my cart. I went to checkout and it jumped to 12 bucks.

It's $5 on Amazon, can't speak for your country.

GMG ended up offering the GOTY edition at 75% off, with a coupon for a further 20% off, so I decided to take that deal.

Do we, um, have permission to buy all the things now? Assuming it wasn't already a daily/community/flash.

No. You have one more day of features deals, then you can empty your wallet.

DON'T BELIEVE PDUB'S LIES! There will be no more daily/community/flash sales.
Today's feature deals are encore sales, which are always the last.

It's not the last day but the good Lord Gaben has blessed us with 46 more hours to offer our wallets in servitude of him.

IT'S SAFE TO BUY BUY BUY NAO!

TAKE COVER AND FIGHT TO THE LAST DOLLAR!

BRACE YOURSELVES THE END IS COMING!

So now that there is nothing to hold us back with shopping... what did you guys get? :D
I got the South Park: Stick of Truth, Arma 3 and the new CoD (wanted something fast with minimal requirements for brain usage plus reviewers actually said it's good this time).

Assetto Corsa - Might actually play this purchase
Stick of Truth - Tried it, I'll probably never get into it....
Halo: Spartan Assault - HALO?! STEAM?? CHEAP??
Wreckfest Digital Deluxe Upgrade - Gimme that special car
Turbo Dismount - Giggles 4 days
Don't Starve - Fun on PS4, better with PC controls
Road Redemption - Road Rash yeaaaaaaaaaa
Ridge Racer Unbounded - Wanted it for a while
Spate - Inta-regrat... This was not was I was expecting


So, I was a fool.

Yes, but you have the paper to throw away I MEAN, spend, on those titles. I did something different this year, spending money not because they were great deals, but because I was actually going to play the games.
