Steam Summer Sales Begins - (June 19-30)

[Arctic Blast]

$3081 spent, lightweights.

I've lost track of what purchases I've mentioned, but the last few days have included : Project Zomboid, a Contagion 4-pack, Borderlands 2 DLC that I didn't have yet, and Battleblock Theater.

Lightweights? Hahahaha!

Yourself excepted, sir. You may have spent enough money that you now have a minority stake in Valve.  :)

Well I've acquired a mere 9 games via Steam over the five years since I joined (like several others here, I lost my "virginity" thanks -- or no thanks -- to Empire Total War); and of those, I've purchased only 7 of them.  I can't get that tool GrimReaper linked to work right now, but I'd estimate I've spent around $175 on those 7 games, for an average of $25 each. 

$6500 is my guess for jh:)

That is so God damn close, if it was a jar of jelly beans, you'd probably win, so I'm just going to call it there.

$6,662.70.   :-[

In my defense, this is over a period of almost 10 years, dating back to when I joined in December of 2004.

I figured the number had to be at least $5000.  Indeed, I would've been disappointed with anything less.  :P 

Also, over how many games is that total spread?  While I know you've never hesitated to pay full price for a game that you felt was worth it, I'm still willing to bet the majority of titles in your Steam library were purchased when they were on sale. 

I don't know how you guys manage to only buy a handful of games on Steam...especially with all the sales they always have. I'm in awe of your self-control and discipline.

For me, it's a combination of limited funds, limited time, a stubborn antipathy for Steam (although it's somewhat milder than it used to be), and an interest in mostly one genre (strategy) that makes it easy for me to practice self-restraint. 

In contrast, I think it's safe to say you have quite a bit more expendable income than I do (indeed, probably a majority of us), plus it's no secret you like games of pretty much all genres (or at least most of them).  Given that, it's small wonder you succumb easier to temptation.  >:D

For those that have mentioned wanting ootp15, you'll want go go over and vote for it for the next flash sale.  If it wins, sounds like it will only cost $10....now that will be a deal for people, just not sure if popular enough to win with the general audience.

Damn I might have to buy it if it wins, not played a baseball game in years.

This.

Not only is OOTP up for a vote, but The Golf Club is in the same group too, with a couple others (F1 2013 and a NASCAR one).   So go vote.

Done... I hope this package wins... Would be a totally different change of pace than the usual winners I remember seeing.

$3081 spent! Yikes!

Wow, I don't think I could find $500 worth of stuff to buy on Steam! ;D

I picked up Divinity II for $4!

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

Apparently, mine's just over $1,000 since 2003 but 62 of my titles were keys bought through other game sites vs 86 items bought through Steam (and 27 of those were DLCs).

[steve58]

AoWIII is $20

[Jack Nastyface]

I see Space Hulk is on sale for the next few hours.  Comments?


EDIT:  Nevermind.  Just read the old review at RPS...

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

Grabbed the DLC for Blackguards.

[Nefaro]

Looks like the OOTP vote failed.


F^#*ing point-and-click Adventure games.  I don't understand why people enjoy them.  *le sigh*

[PanzersEast]

Splinter Cell Blacklist Recommendations?  First temptation I have had.

Yeah it wasn't particularly well received, but I had to give it a try at that price.  Perhaps Bob will play it with me. :)

[bob48]

^I will that, mate. Just say when you're ready.
