Steam Summer sale kicks off today
The annual Steam Summer Sale began today, offering the yearly steep discounts on PC games.
It's that time of year again. Valve kicked off the Steam Summer Sale today, offering its usual spate of deep discounts on semi-recent PC games and indies. It will run through June 30, with daily sales, flash sales community choice votes.
A few of the notable daily deals include Dead Rising 3 for $37.49, Day Z for $25.49, and the Witcher 2 for $3.99. A flash sale Dead Island: Riptide, DMC Devil May Cry, Hotline Miami, and Mirror's Edge for at least 75% off each. Plus several games can be sorted by prices, under $5, under $10, and the top sellers. Check out the Steam Store for the full listings.

steam is getting hammered like maddogs mom. lol

Don't Starve! Is the Reign of Giants DLC worth it? Considering doing a 2 pack of the base + DLC with a friend.
-
So what's the deal with the Witcher 2 is it cool or is it whack? Is it linear?
-
its linear but a lot of fun.
-
-
Witcher 2 is definitely linear. It has branches, sure, but it's not an open world game where you do whatever you want. The story is static until you do the required thing, every time.
-
-
a linear game with choices is still a linear game.

just my usual tip: go to $5 and under and $10 and under in the store. there are more games on sale and special than listed in the daily deals or flash sales. for instance, far cry: blood dragon is $3.74 right now and gone home is $4.99.
-
dark souls $6.79 skyrim $9.99 these are deals folks
-
is there a plan yet for dark souls when live ends?

Hide your wallet hide your kids

I love how Origin and Uplay do summer sales ahead of steam yet they have nothing good to offer. Steam is so ahead of the PC games market it's not even funny.

It's not a monopoly if you have competitors, even if those competitors suck.
-

Their sales are also a joke. I've yet to see more than 2 games at once on either service sell for under the $4.99 mark (not counting giveaways), whereas Steam has a permanent link showing games selling for under $5, which even outside of sales has literally hundreds of entries.
-
It's not looking too bad this time but Steam played off the massive popularity of their sales last time by offering poor discounts and not a great variety of games, and people didn't buy much. This time it looks like they've realised it's price that makes people buy things not the hype of there being a sale on.

The trick to the summer sale is not to buy things when they first go on sale at like 25% or so, but wait to see if there's a flash sale of something like 50-80% later. If you're interested in tracking when that happens, we made an app called Notivo that sends you a push notification when a particular game goes on sale. notivo.com/download

It doesn't seem to work when it goes on sale even more.
