2011 Steam Summer Sale


Recommended Posts

If it's short like the first one was, or a little longer but still under 10 hours, then $25 is still too much for portal 2.

It's much much longer than the first Portal. Can't remember if it's over 10 hours (it most probably is), but it's worth that price just for the humour. It's definitely one of the funniest games of this century!

Got what I was waiting for Portal 2, as well as Terraria which looks pretty good and the Sam n Max games, loved the originals games

What's the Portal 2 digital book thing? The Final Hours

I loved the first one even if it was a bit short.

10 hours of quality gaming at 25euros ... It's more than perfect for me :) I'm happy.

The damages this year for me :

- Alpha Protocol

-Darksiders

- Hoard

- Bioshock 2

- Portal 2

I'm loaded for the summer with this ****.

Edit : If they do an encore of Oblivion, I may be tempted to get it. Should I ?

It's a book about the development of Portal + Portal 2, really good read.

Yep it was awesome, I got it for my iPad 2 and really, really enjoyed it. Super interesting stuff.

Portal 2 at that prices is an absolute steal. If you don't have it, get it. Fantastic game, both singleplayer and co-op campaigns. Easily my favourite game of the year so far. The "Portal 2 - The Final Hours" is also a really great read too.

Then I'm sold, bought it for 75p

So far in the sales, I've bought...

Nothing! :laugh: I'm actually a bit proud of that. :p I'm awfully tempted by F1 2010 though (I'm a little interested in Dead Space 2 as well, but I haven't even got around to playing the first one! :p ). It's not perfect, but I know there's plenty of mods around to fix some of the big issues, especially the graphics, to make the game more vibrant and realistic. I'm just not sure about the gameplay bugs. I heard there was a patch released to fix them, but I also heard that the reception to the patch wasn't that positive.

What does everyone on here think about it?

wow, the book thing is an incredibly small download, but I still have over 10hrs left for it to download, steam must be getting hammered. I am currently getting 0bytes/sec and has been stuck like that for ages. Restarting steam does nothing :( Portal 2 has 11 days left. Not bad for a 50Mb connection :)

Terraria will be mine :D Only ?1.49 damn!

They've now jacked the price up to ?2.99 :no:

Change the download region in Steam's settings to change servers. I'm using Frankfurt, and my download speeds have been reasonable.

    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
