    This year was very weak compared to last year. I think the strongest part of this year were the many indie packs. I really wasn't interested in any of it but it was still a good deal.

    I think there were also a lot of repeats from last year. That really wasn't valve's fault though. The PC market IMO hasn't had a very positive year with new games. Most anticipated updates were. Blizzard games and those aren't part of steam.

    I'm still happy that steam exists and I'm definitely looking forward to next holiday's deals.

    the indie packs were a steal



    the main problem though is most regular buying gamers pick up odds and ends throughout the year, and most packs consist of games already purchased

    I'll check mine when I get home later today.

    Aside form that, the sale this yea was okay. I was expecting a bigger discount on Dragon Age Ultimate.

    The engine seems kinda janky. Turn shadows down to Low and you'll get a huge increase in performance. Though for me I wasn't getting 60fps.

    That's funny. Before the sale started that's all I was hoping for too.

    I hope its not a Steam issue. I have a hard copy of NWN2 and I remember it running pretty well after all the patches.

    From what I've read, the game's shadows just have issues on ATI cards.

    Strange since I'm running an ATI card but saw no issues on the box copy.

    Not discounting your words just saying I didn't see any issues on my old copies.

    I got a lot happier when I found the Free Camera option under the Strategy tab in the options menu.
