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.

    • Where is the "Wow!" emoji? This'll have to do 🤩
    • 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.
    • If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
