Great deals and all but I don't actually want any of those games. >_>

But hey! At least I got another free copy of Portal. That makes 3 so far.

You do realize you're heavily investing your time in a browser game, right?

Well first of all I have heard you can get 30 games for $75 but it is tied to your steam account, so how do you even space for all those games? Doesn't sound worth it to me. :P

What? Are you kidding me? But then you're a girl...you wouldn't know (not sexist, not TOO many girls on steam yet, female toniculation is growing, but yeah...).
You don't HAVE to download them all at once...
You just...own them.
Title: Re: Steam Holiday Sale (Dec. 19 - Jan. 1)
Post by: Mia on December 21, 2011, 10:08:25 am
Yeah but realistically are you really going to play all 30? I bet not.
Title: Re: Steam Holiday Sale (Dec. 19 - Jan. 1)
Post by: Gangs on December 21, 2011, 10:17:53 am
Probably not, but the novelty of it doesn't wear out. Most gamers are synonymously game collecters.
Besides who knows WHEN we might play it? Because we just might...

Collecting games that are expensive doesn't make sense to me if you're not even going to play them.
Title: Re: Steam Holiday Sale (Dec. 19 - Jan. 1)
Post by: Gangs on December 21, 2011, 01:45:22 pm
You made 2 very awkward assumptions there...
1) The games are expensive: The POINT of the steam sale is that the normally expensive games AREN'T!
2) We won't play them: Why the heck wouldn't we, we wouldn't play ALL the games we buy in a pack but we would definitely play MOST!

Typically, I save about $200 a year for steams thanksgiving sale.  This year, I only spent like $35 of it and I felt sad and abused.  This feels like steam is coming back, trying to make up for the shit they pulled over-thanksgiving.

Might not get all my monies, BUT PROBABLY MOST.

Even if it is cheap.. the question is why you'd want to buy something that still costs quite a bit ($75) that you will mostly never have time to play all of them. While it is cheaper, you won't use most of them. I don't see the sense in "collecting" games but then again I am not an avid gamer.
Title: Re: Steam Holiday Sale (Dec. 19 - Jan. 1)
Post by: undiscoveredbum on December 21, 2011, 06:28:41 pm
I'm sure there are people who buy games just for the sake of having them. That kind of happens with hobbies. But most people aren't like that. This sale is giving an opportunity to buy catalogs of games worth $500 to $1000 so why not get it all for $75? We'll get around to playing the damn games eventually.
Title: Re: Steam Holiday Sale (Dec. 19 - Jan. 1)
Post by: Shadow on December 21, 2011, 06:31:44 pm
You don't have to buy the bundles. I don't. I usually just buy various individual games when they are priced down to $1-$5 or so. And with steam you can download and play them whenever you want on any computer at any time in the future. Its just cheap and convenient. I plan on playing all the ones I get eventually.

Post by: Brian on December 21, 2011, 07:00:26 pm
curse you steam! CURSE YOU!

and what we are doing mia, is we go, "hmm... this game is normal $50, it is currently 90% off, odds are 1/2 i might want to play the game eventually." so in the end you save yourself an average of what, $22.50 buy buying it regardless of if you play it or not eventually. goooooooooooo stats! (as a side note, i just woke up so my math could very easily be wrong.

So far I have:
As well as a Nice Winter Crate Key in TF2 and a couple Explorer's Packs in Spiral Knights. Also have my eyes on Team Fortress Classic, Saints Row: The Third, SkyDrift, Sonic Generations, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, Counter-Strike: Source, Worms Reloaded, and Dungeon Defenders depending on how prices go.

This is the first Steam sale I've been around for when I've actually had money, so this is going to hurt. :v
