2011 Steam Summer Sale


Recommended Posts

People should really pick up Lead & Gold, Monday Night Combat, Beat Hazard (and BH Ultra which is just freaking amazing), Solar 2 and a few others I'm forgetting at the moment. :)

Hoenstly, i wouldn't recommend beat hazard unless you like intentionally giving yourself a headache.

You can tone down all the effect settings now. Plus, with the effects maxed out and the screen exploding in color and insanity I never once had a headache or any other issue come from the display.

Bought the entire GTA pack for a while back for ?5 so this sale isn't that good. Grabbed World of Goo, Unreal 3 Black (also gifted my friend a copy) and I got gifted Bit Trip Runner

The GTA pack isn't one of the daily deals, so that's why it's only reduced by 33%. It'll probably be a daily deal later on in the sale, so it'll be reduced further.

Gah I wish Steam Store had a mobile app. I'm going abroad to Europe in 2 days and will only have 20MB of data to use for the period if I wanted to buy anything. Tried putting on Opera Mini on my Android phone for the data compression but it crashes on the Steam store when using 3G for some reason. Any other ideas? :)

Hey guys, check out the THQ Hit pack, $49 (in australia)

Has;

Company of Heroes

Metro 2033

Saints Row 2

Darksiders (one of the best RPG's i have ever played hands down)

Homefront

Dawn of War 2 + Chaos Rising + Retribution

It has a few more as well, but those are the main ones :) MASSIVE bargain

So Lead and Gold is worth the $1.50? Also how does Oblivion run on the PC. Was thinking of getting the 5th anniversary edition next week but $8.50 is just to good to pass up. I have 4Gbs of ram a 2.1ghz core 2 duo and 1GB 4650. If it will run smooth and great I'll grab the PC version, if not I don't mind shelling out the 30 for the 5th anniversary.

Lead and Gold i gather is MP only so be mindful of that.

as for the sale, here we go again! heh heh i see the usual suspects are here...giantpotato, lcg, hello gents :laugh: believe it or not but i've only played about half the stuff i bought during the Xmas sale, i'm pretty sure. but this looks like it'll be a very good sale, too, so hopefully we get some nice deals.

salty wagyu - enjoy your trip and don't worry bout this too much, there's always the next sale with Steam and the daily specials...you'll be fine

Wow, Valve, you just hit a new low.

27 EUR for Valve's games for the UK.

45 EUR for Valve's games for the EU.

Also, if you buy the games individually, you pay 171 EUR (not discounted), but if you buy them as a package, you pay 221 EUR (not discounted). WTF!?

Looks like I won't be buying anything.

Lead & Gold is one of the more underrated gems on PC currently. Very fun game online, just pray you get people on your team who are morons or griefers lol

Oblivion runs great on PC, and with some graphic mods looks amazing.

    • I got this notification just now in Android: So I went in to disable the "Other" or "Marketing" notifications in Notifications management: But it came through the Now Playing? So if I disable that I no longer get what's Now Playing in Notifications? I'm a paying subscriber, not on the free plan... can they sink any lower?
    • Population especially in high density areas creates more heat and more humidity. This can be noticed in an indoor arena or concert room which heats up when the room or arena fills with people, without air conditoning to cool it down, Watering of lawns creates more humidity as the moisture from the watering rises into the atmosphere, creating a more humid condition. The again, depopulating an arena or room after an event will drop the temperature inside. Desert areas are less humid for a number of reasons, including a lower population density. Tel Aviv has horrible weather, unless you like it hot and humid. Summer days are regularly 90+ F with humidity well over 70%. It is probably not as bad as Mississippi but still it is bad enough.

    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
