Steam Winter Sale


Passb

Recommended Posts

Checked this morning to see what deals were being offered, saw the Mass Effect "franchise" on sale for 9.99. I've only played the first one so I figured I check it out considering I absolutely loved the first game. The "franchise" bundle only includes the first and second game. Do they not know there was a third game in the series, or are they too embarrassed to include that one with the bundle. I don't even think the third game is even available on Steam. Don't call the bundle "Mass Effect franchise" and only include 2/3 of the games that are a part of it.

It is not available on Steam, because it is on Origin (an EA run Digital Distribution system).

 

It's not their fault. :P

 

I'm interested to see what goes on sale over the next few weeks. If only Dragonborn were out now. :confused:

Is it just me or is this winter sale disappointing???, although i bought all 3 Stalker games for under 11$

 

Still the lack of options this time round is disturbing.

only 100 games for sale, compared to the 350 on the Autumn sale.

Just picked KOTOR II for 2.49. Pretty good considering it's been years since I've played the original KOTOR and I never got a chance to pick up the second one.

 

All in all I would agree that this sale is pretty dismal. Both the Train and Farming sim games have been flash deals in recent days. I can't expect there is a huge audience for those type of games but I could be wrong. I was expecting more games to go on sale, and bigger titles to have better deals, but so far I've been pretty disappointed. Maybe they're saving the good deals for tomorrow or after Christmas.

Maybe they just couldn't get enough companies to agree to discounted prices, which is why most of their deals have either been older games, or indie games. Also, there doesn't seem to be any give-aways like last time unless they plan on springing something suddenly. Maybe times are tight, or people are just cheap.

 

Only thing I've bought so far was Bard's Tale. Might buy Witcher 2 if I can argue myself into the purchase. Bought myself 16gb memory upgrade for Christmas, so wallet is a little tight.

 

Saint's Row 3 Complete for less than $10 is a pretty decent deal, too bad I bought it last year for 5 times that amount.

Hmm I am very tempted to get borderlands 2 for pc, lol even though have it for ps3???. I question myself sometimes.

 

Bought all 3 S.T.A.L.K.E.R games for under 11$ and audiosurf, also 3dmark11 because i needed a decent benchmark tool for a change.http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/thumbsup.gif
