Well, that sucks the air right out of my anticipation balloon. The flash-sales are by far the big draw for me. Everything else goes on sale constantly anyway. I'm looking for those "4 hours to get FarCry 4 at 75% off!" deals... :tickedoff:
They'll get me with something, they always do. I Am Bread for 5% off? Certainly!
^Now that's a game to loaf around with.

Oh god, he's back!!!
Sounds margine-ily good. Butter not spread yourself too thin Gus.
It all depends on how much dough I have in my pocket. I knead to keep some on me this christmas
No matter how you slice it, it comes down to wheat they offer in the sale.
These puns are making me a gluten for bun-ishment
^Winner.

Bad humor is bad humor, no matter how you slice it!
Rye does every thread have to devolve to puns?
:o
;D
On topic, does this mean that the sale price listed on the first day is the deepest discount for the whole wheat?

Keeping track of the best sales is going to be a real PITA. I suggest you all sow your oats before the sale hits.

No doubt they'll come up with something else. After all, Flash deals didn't exist in Steam sales up until a couple of years ago.
I have no bread related puns because I'm kinda drunk. So...yeah.
The lack of flash sales shouldn't be a problem to those of us who are sufficiently well-bread to pay our way.
That status is, of course, strictly reserved for the upper crust of Grogheads society.
As far as this nonsensical punning is concerned, I wish we'd all just baguette and move on...
The yeast we can do after leaven all these puns aside is playing the game
I gotta give a virtual high-5 to Con for stepping up in the pun department. O0

I bet he's just sub-bing for someone.
We have a Pun Dept. now? :o Missed that. Must've been.....loafing. ::)
I guess I will have to millet it over

Some of you weren't bread by your parents well enough to appreciate good puns. Most of you were raised to get oven it and enjoy them, though.
These stupid puns make me feel like burnt toast. Please stop.
^^Somebody's feeling a bit crusty today.
Looks like the sale is starting to rise..... ::)

The Witcher 3 is 50% off......That's a steal for a game that could possibly be GOTY.
I'm very close to pulling the trigger on Pillars of Eternity. Talk me into it, lads!

Mrs.B loves it.
I'm looking at the Endless Legend sale atm - looks good value with all the DLC thrown in.
Careful, Bob. Its a fantasy game, so it may have stone golems.
There are a lot of games in my Wishlist on sale right now! :o This could get ugly. :D
Elite Dangerous is 14 something..wonder if my PC could handle it.

*sigh*

Yikes! My entire Wishlist is only about 40 games. ;D
I picked up Pillars of Eternity, I just hope it's as good as they say because that'll be it for me for this sale.
Remember, based on what we know, the sale prices are very likely to remain static for the duration of the sale, so if you see something you like at a price you like, don't bother waiting!
Looking at Hegemony III and Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition. Otherwise that's about it.
^Ooh I too am oggling Hegemony III...
M2TW for $3 and add the Kingdoms Add-on for $3 more. You just said you wanted it the other day Gus. I might finally pick-up Civil War II for $20.
^Bought them both less than an hour ago - I admitted it in the other thread :)

^Absolutely.
Yea, I just bought a copy for my little brother for sh*ts and giggles. :smitten:
Pulled the trigger on Elite:Dangerous. Hopefully a month or three from now I can get around to playing it 8)
Is that THE Xtiaan from ye olde site?
Yes Gus, It's your "old' friend.
Argh. Of course this sale comes during the part of the month when I'm broke. And of course 4 out of the 6 games on my wishlist are deeply discounted. I'm just gonna go sit in a corner and quietly rock back and forth now...
Incidentally, Steam is currently doing a 24-hour flash sale for Distant Worlds: Universe if anyone's interested. It's about as cheap as the game ever gets.
Whatever
Anyone else having issues with people trying to hack their Steam accounts?
I've received a half dozen emails in today informing me of login attempts on my account.

Whilst you're rocking back and forth think DEEPLY about those games. Are you REALLY, actually going to play them? I mean, really? And what about all those casualties from the last Steam sale - are they not deserving of some attention first? Hold fast, brother.
Anyway, it'll be the Christmas sale soon enough.
I'm trying to stick to prices that are 50% or more off.
Well, Endless Legend DLC, Crookz and Victor Vran purchased. So far, I've been good about sticking with my wishlist. So far...
Has anyone tried out Fleets of Sol? Is it worth a fiver?
Oh man! Do I get Arma III or Civil War II? I've heard that Civil War II crashes a lot and not sure the latest patch fixes the issue. As for Arma III I know they now have Warfare Mode available which is what I loved playing in Arma II but something is holding me back. Oh what to do...
ArmA 3 is a no brainer IMO . :)
I have kitted out my CK2 and EU4 games with last missing DLC .
Otherwise no buys for me.

I got Endless Legends.

Good game. I need to pick up some of the expansions at some point.
I did buy 1 expansion as well, and I managed to do a bit of the tutorial, before nursie gave me my meds, followed by a nap.
This is game I've wanted for a long time.

You and me both mate, I'd sell my nan for it. No Linux version. :(
goddamit - the world needs a linux nan, then we can rescue huw
Its a seriously nice game................sorry, Huw.........
I wouldn't mind so much if Amplitude aren't such utter cocks about it.

I caved and picked up Arma III. O0
If the Linux port was complete I'd have picked Arma 3 up too, but if I buy it now it won't count as a Linux sale so I'll keep waiting.
I'm trying to quell my growing desire for Civil War II by watching Civil War II videos and convince myself that it's not really any fun. So far it's the game 35, Me 0.

Picked up the DLC for Endless Legend and Gal Civ III and Shadowrun Dragonfall. Did not pick up Common Sense for EUIV or Horse Lords for CK2... not deep enough discount.
I have been eyeing Conqest of Elysim 4 -- Beyond Earth Rising Tide -- SOW - Waterloo -- Buzz Aldrin's Space Program
But so far I have resisted.... may pick up another thing or two.
