Conventional wisdom is buy daily deals you want but hold off on packs until the end.

Day 1: got Oblivion goatee edition

**Centurion1** · 07-01-2011, 05:11

yeah oblivion is only like 8 bucks but i wasnt sure how my comptuer would run that type of game so i avoided it. plus i have literally played every inch of that game over 1000 hours logged.

I still haven't installed the majority of game I bought in the Steam Christmas Sale 09 never mind any since, or any I might buy now. When these sales come around I have to laugh at all those people who constantly criticise Steam...

edit: Just checked, I have 49 Steam games I've never installed.

Though a few are games I got free and never intended to play.

Nothing interesting on sale today for me. Although 33% off Witcher 2 is a good deal. Day 1 feels like a used car salesman trying to flog off his worst cars before actually opening up and showing the decent cars he's hiding away.

Bought THQ Hit Collection Pack for 50 € and 77% off. Already had Red Faction Guerrilla and STALKER and a wee-bit miffed I could not gift those extra copies.
Still a good price and now I don't feel bad about owning Homefront :D

Also, Norwegian government added a 25% VAT on electronical goods and services purchased internationally, so I decided to just buy before it came into effect.

Shogun 2 40% off today. (US$30) This is probably the lowest it's going to go for this sale. The daily deal is the lowest for the week. It might be a little cheaper at Christmas if you wait, but this is probably the best deal for the next few months.

If you plan on playing multiplayer I'll team up with you if you want.

Oh, and Just Cause 2 is so much fun. It's a bold statement, but I can't imagine anyone not having fun it it.

Got Just Cause 2 myself. The start screen had an option saying "Press Start" and I immediately thought "Great another cheap console port...". Then it changed to "Press Enter" and I'm wondering was that done intentionally to mess with people, rather amusing if it was.

Can't say I noticed that. It's an excellent port if it even is one. It ran perfectly for me while looking great. The biggest red flag for a bad port is unnecessarily bad performance.
