All I've picked up so far is Flotilla for $2.50, but I have a list of a few other games I'm going to grab on the last day; don't want to buy now just in case they go on a daily sale later, but most everything I'm looking at is not very well known anyway.

Same here. I'm only looking at the special sales right now. Any idea when the last day of the sale is?

July 4.

A lot of the time when Steam has a big sale like this, they end up putting most (if not all) of the daily deals on sale again on the last day, so I'm still holding out hope for L4D2 for ~$10 on Sunday.

I might re buy Witcher just have it all updated through steam.

I wish more companies took this approach to advertising instead of all the seizure inducing Flash nonsense that is rich media. Maybe then I wouldn't feel it necessary to use AdBlock.

Yesterday's bottom line made me lol.

Man, aside from ghostbusters, the other game that I've been seeing on sale was/is Civ 4. I'm always tempted to buy it since it also runs on Mac, but when I read comments like this about the game, I just lose interest.

"And when you see archers able to defend cities vs tanks you know something is up with the game mechanics."

I can't play Civ4 because of how crack addicting it is. That says, I find it hilarious that archers can defend a city against tanks and bombers.

That would just anger me.

The new list of games is out for sale. I'm not crazy about any of those games. I never liked Tell Tale's version of the classics. It's just not as clever and the logic with the puzzles is all over the place.

New deals are up and I do believe my wallet is safe today. Was tempted to get the Tales of Monkey Island pack but I already bought it from Telltales website and $12 is just a bit too much just to have it on Steam.

How much was it when you bought it?

Yeah, nothing that great today. Abe's Oddworld isn't bad, but practically everyone has played that. Operation Flashpoint is good at that price. It is very realistic (one shot kill usually) and tactical. It can be fun for the people that like the original Rainbow Six.

Think I got it for $15 a month or 2 back.

Weak sale day.

LOL! Where'd you find that? Was that in the footer?

Working at Valve has to be awesome.
