I picked up the three STALKER games. Always been interested in them but the bugs put me off. Got the complete series mods downloaded, so hopefully it'll fix a lot them.

People complaining about the sale being disappointing. It isn't really disappointing because it doesn't have the games you want in the sale or they are not cheap enough. As they have a lot of sales, i've already picked up most of the games i want in past sales. New PC gamers or owners of new rigs will love the sale as they'll probably not have a lot of the decent games in the sale. Fallout NV for ?9 and the DLC for ?4.50 was a bargain.

You also have to be realistic about the sale. As great as they are, you're not going to see Portal 2 in there for a fiver.

Plus it is exciting waiting for the counter to finish and see what new items are in the sale

What happened to the summer sale/camp activities? Steam's store page is back to normal activity :blink:

Was just gonna say the same, steam and steampowered.com do not have the deals listed. It was supposed to be until the 10th wasnt it?

Anyone have any experience with Railworks 2? My son and I love electic trains but just do not have the room right now to build our own scene so I figured we would just get a computer sim for now.

It is on sale this week and the Canadian packs are too but would like to hear if it is any good or not.

Another good Train Sim is the one from Microsoft. Very good Train Simulator but discontinued product.

Railworks 2 was part of one of the deals earlier in the sale. I'd probobly wait in case it goes back on sale as part of an encore or something.

I am on the wall on The Sims 3. I noticed it stays ?50 for the last few times it was on sale. I think this time they added their latest expansion in as well The Sims 3 Generations.

There's a new expansion coming along - the Sims 3 Pets. So since I have more 105 games of which I have only finished 10 - 20 of them... I'm wondering if it's worth adding more to the collection, or whether I should wait for the Christmas sale for the new discounted price and new expansion.

This is great! I didnt realise this was going on shame I've missed what looks like some great deals.

Just picked up Batman GOTY and Left4Dead 2 as I never played either!

Now I just have to complete Braid and then get Limbo when its released and i'm complete.

So are there new deals every day?

Yes, until the 10th.

The last day's deals will most likely be the best selling deals from the previous days.

      The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.

      It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.

      Microsoft, totally not confusing /s 25H2 - Current for non-Arm based Windows 26H1 - Current for Arm based Windows 26H2 - Only for non Arm Windows
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      After I installed those, my older but capable Win 11 laptop (16GB RAM) reported it as 26H2 26300.8697. Then I installed it on my big laptop (128GB RAM! Hehe sorry), it reported it as 25H2 26220.8690. Ugh. Do I have to switch Insiders channels from Release to Beta?
