Details of Steam's summer sale have supposedly leaked. I know I have too many games when every game of the list I either have or have no interest in.

That's just the dailies. Most of the catalog gets a discount, too, so there's almost always SOMETHING.  ;D

So my plan is to not buy any more games from STEAM until their big summer sale, then I can take all the money I didn't spend and go crazy  :o .... yes I know what they say about "the best laid plans" but seriously you guys can stop laughing at me now.   ;D

Green Man Gaming are currently handing out free games, and when you get them ("if" you decide you want to pay 0$ for a game that is :P), you get a 20% off discount voucher as well.

They're really trying aren't they?

I see that one of the Hacker Evolution games are free today. 

Does GMG also have a client required Steam-style?  >:(

Some of their games do require their client....others, you get a Steam key.  I keep my eye on them (sales, etc), but have never actually bought from them...yet.

I believe they have a downloader, you don't need it to play though.

Ahh!  Thank you for the info Tpek.  Now I won't be quite so shy about checking them out.

I'm desperately hoping the Game of Thrones RPG goes on sale...

Sweet. Arma II for $24. Might have to bite.

I see some other great gaming goodness, most of which I own.
