[Steam] Holiday Sale


Recommended Posts

I guess I see that if someone missed a sale, this is a good chance to pick up the "best of." However I'm a little personally annoyed about Left 4 Dead 2, it's "on sale" today for the same price it has been the entire holiday sale. I'd been waiting hoping to get a little more of a discount, but I'll grab it today. I also would have loved to see some small token discount ($5 even?) on MW2. Thing of it is, I've gotten so many other games over the past two weeks, that I might not need to get MW2 at all now! :)

It was a good run though. im sure lots of you guys picked up more games than you'll get around to playing. :lol:

Yep, you're right there. I picked up Star Wars KOTOR, and the id Super Pack (which has 22 titles in total), and I probably won't get around to play all of them, but it's because my graphics card isn't in my PC. :p I just need to get a modern power supply and then I can use it again.

My only regret is not buying C & C 3 or the Civilization series.

In the end I bought:

Prey

Left 4 Dead 1

Crysis Pack

Mass Effect

Horror games dont appeal to me so I'm not buying Killing Floor or STALKER.

I still want to buy a modern game but L4D's Co-Op gameplay doesnt appeal to me and I'm not paying $60 for MW 2. :p

I was hoping to see Modern Warfare 1 get 50% off today to go along with my World at War bargain, but oh well. I went ahead and picked up Ghostbusters today, and Counter-Strike: Source before the deals changed.

I was thinking of picking up a couple other games, but I've spent enough money. :p

Final List was:

Defense Grid

Star Wars: Jedi Knight pack (Dark Forces, Dark Forces II, Mysteries of the Sith, Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy)

Empire: Total War

Rome: Total War Gold

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

Deus Ex: GOTY Edition

Braid

Audiosurf

Battlefield 2 Collection

World in Conflict / World in Conflict: Soviet Assault

Dead Space

Jade Empire

Call of Duty: World at War

Max Payne

Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne

Half-Life: Source

Doom Collection (Ultimate Doom, Doom II, Final Doom, Master Levels, Doom 3, Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil)

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind GOTY

Counter-Strike: Source

Ghostbusters

:D

I was tempted by the Civilization IV pack, but didn't go for it in the end, as I'm not really a big fan of the PC ones. The console version (Civilization Revolution) is my favourite.

    • Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
