Yep, it's a worldwide deal. :) For Americans, it'll cost $14.47, and for Europeans, it's ?14.47. I'll post the code on this thread when I see it appear. No need to worry about demand, as there's no usage limit on the code; just that the deal will almost certainly end at midnight, going from the previous and current deals.

Cool. :)

Regarding today's deals, the only game that even mildly catches my fancy is Deadspace 2, but I am going to give it a miss.

Team Fortress 2's achievement isn't unlocking a gift for me. I got it and all, but the Steam store says I don't.

I guess it's a server issue at the moment, since it won't unlock Beat Hazard's for me.

Cool. :)

Never finished 1 so haven't done much with 2, but I heard its much better.

(I could say that I love the beginning of 2, but thats all I've played. Of course any game where you wake up that way is alright in my book.)

OK, got 14 lumps of coal now, and I picked up a 50% off Dungeons of Dredmor voucher. Now that definitely is trolling, as I got the objective in that game a few days ago! :laugh:

yeah I traded in one batch and regretted it having already heard what you guys got I knew it'd probably be useless o.o

Against my better judgement, I am going to craft 7 more pieces of coal into a prize, even though I've got like a 0.00000000001% chance of getting something useful. Here goes..........

40% off The Witcher 2. :pinch:

hey I wonder if I can download that yet! Haven't been able to since they converted it to the new content delivery system.

...over three months ago...

...anyone wanna back it up from Steam and burn me some dvds? maybe that'd work! (No, I'm not asking for anything illegal here, heh.)

Anyone who wants to trade Portal 1? I just checked my inventory and as it turns out, I got Portal 1 in my inventory.

I want to trade portal 1, what do you want for it? I got not that much :/

I've got 6 coal and a 33% discount on a Valve game that I'd be willing to trade. I've yet to get the trading achievement so I'm open to a coal-for-coal trade if anyone wants to. I'd be particularly interested in coupons for the King Arthur or Supreme Ruler games (both Paradox titles) if anyone is looking to trade for my coal and/or Valve discount.

My Steam username is the same as my forum username. :)

Hmm, I just noticed that Steam has given me giftable copies of the two Serious Sam Classic games for buying the Serious Sam Gold Pack last night (even though I never had any of them before buying it :p ). Nice surprise there. :) Who's up for trading then? Seems you only get the Classic versions from buying the Gold Pack, although at the current sale price, I'm guessing a lot of people have them now. :p I'm open to any offers (except the bad coupons, that is).

man you guys are really tradey this year, i don't remember this happening before!

anyway, Homefront is a good deal for that money, you still have time to get it, i paid full price on launch :rolleyes:

random: maybe i need to give EYE more time to reveal itself properly...but so far it really does seem like a very unique game! i love the mood of it and the wacky story.

and we're still talking about coal...i'll give ya guys some lumps if you don't stop talking about that!

The damage so far:

Alice: Madness Returns

Assassin's Creed: Revelations

Bulletstorm

Dirt 3

Orcs Must Die

Rage

Rock of Ages

I think this will be it for me this year, there's no other games I really wanted that can't wait 'til the next sale.
