Author Topic: Steam Summer Sale 2013 Not-Begging After-Party Thread  (Read 29488 times)

Show's over. Liked last year's more. Didn't really enjoy the trading-card tie-in, and last year had those silly backgrounds every day.

The first and last 2 days of the sale completely sucked


i bought


uhm

GTA IV EFLC i think (I think it was $10?)

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare ($6)

Men of War: Vietnam ($12)

Had; $80

Ended with; $52

Would have ended with;
$0

wow

Definitely not the best Sale ever, but it was alright.
I missed a fair amount of it, because I sleep a lot, and my room was being re-decorated so my PC was out of action.

Got a few good deals, and bought a couple things for friends.
Didn't see anything I really wanted drop to any good extent, so I didn't get anything I had especially hoped for.


Cards are interesting, but a bit slow and slightly annoying, particularly when all your drops are identical to each other.
And then those copies don't sell for much, so it's still a bit naff.

I definitely wouldn't go buying games just for cards, which is sort of the thing they want you to do, hence their excessive advertisment of Card Games this year.
(It'd be pretty cool if Cards also had stats associated to them and you could play something like Top Annoying Oranges with them. Maybe earn other cards through that, or put up your own cards or other items as a bet)


Anyway, I'm waiting for the Winter Sale, and will hopefully be saving up whatever I can for then.

set away $100 for this sale. only used $70 of it. $20 of that was for steam gifts to trade later.

not the best sale ever but I didn't waste money so whatever I'm happy

Only spent $30. Not bad for all this:

Saints Row: The Third

Reus

Fallout New Vegas: Old World Blues DLC
Fallout New Vegas Honest Hearts DLC
Fallout New Vegas: Lonesome Road DLC

StarDrive

The Witcher: Enhanced Edition
The Witcher 2

Under the Ocean

I know that this has been said like, a million times, but this is probably one of the worst sales ever. I don't think that the holiday sale is gonna be any better... they're probably going to make 10 million cards with Frosty the Snowman.

At least I got games like...

GTA IV
Serious Sam 3 (I got it at the wrong time, though.)
Serious Sam Classic: TSE
Serious Sam Classic: TFE
Serious Sam HD: TSE
Serious Sam HD: TFE
System Shock 2
Just Cause (4 copies)
The Binding of Isaac and the DLC
and Natural Selection 2.


I also wanna thank Sir Dooble for Just Cause 2, and Doughboy for the classic Doom games.

er, i bought

Chivalry
StarForge
Kenshi
Surgeon Simulator 2013
and Tiny and Big

what happened to all those games I wanted to buy during the year when I didn't have any money ;-;

bully: scholarship edition
call of duty: subway edition metro last light
doom3: bfg edition
FTL: faster than light
interstellar marines (lol)

so not much

I gotten/received:

Supreme Commander 1
Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance
Supreme Commander 2
Sleeping Dogs
Red Faction: Guerilla
Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition
Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate
PAYDAY The Heist
Worms Revolution
StarForge
Under the Ocean
SimCity 4 Deluxe

And I still consider this the most terrible sale Steam has had so far.

I got all the CS games, The Witcher 1+2, Torchlight 2, Kinetic Void, Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion, BFBC2, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, FNV, and Dishonored

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare
Everyone wanted that game. What's so great about it?

Is there any chance at all that the summer cards will go above their ~$.25 price range?
