Sweet, I'd been saving a sawed-in-half 360 controller for just such an occasion.hrm

nah, I'm good. But thanks for asking. Better give it to someone with less games.
I would expect them to add either an acheivement/badget for Greenlight votes during the next sale, that's usually when they do such things.
I do hope we get an event this sale again, those are some of my favourite parts of the sales and the summer sales felt a bit dry with only the community badges.

I picked up the Dunwall City Trials, even though I'm more keen on the next story-based DLC than this score attack/leaderboard-centric stuff. Nothing else this year has quite held my attention like Dishonored.
hrm
the game doesn't know whether it has partial or full controller support?
Maybe it's the same as Ubi's earlier games this gen, wherein the wireless X360 controller is partially supported while the wired controller is fully supported.

Who wants a Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Steam Key?

Yeah, the story based DLC is definitely what I'm really looking forward to. However, I really loved the gameplay and all of the powers and whatnot in Dishonored, so I'm looking forward to being able to mess around with them in Dunwall City Trials.
To the Moon.
isn't To the Moon an RPG maker game?

Thank you for posting this. I was just gonna wait till 1pm to pick it up tomorrow, but I'm gonna start this up now. I've been excited about this for weeks.

I'm not sure whether to pick up Far Cry 3 at £29.99; I'm kind of tempted, but would hold out if it was going to get discounted more. How likely is it to get a massive discount during the xmas sales? Ideally, the best price would be around £14.99, do new games get such discounts?
Every good Indie game this past 24 months, Black Ops 1, Civ 5, Witcher 2, Valve stuff....
So yeah, a fair bit, just a shame the pricing for Mac only ports can be awful and Aspyr still hold some of the older stuff hostage (COD4 for one).

What do people think is the over under on seeing X-COM at sub $20 in the next six months?
People will be selling keys cheaper than that. For example, some are getting copies free with their AMD cards.
AC:Revs was 25% off during last year's Christmas/Winter Sale and it too released in November, so I would expect the same for Far Cry 3 as well as AssCreed 3.

Given that there are more than three trials/missions, Dunwall City Trials adds something relatively substantive compared to the Xcom DLC.

Torchlight 2 50% off at GamersGate. Is the game really as good as they say it is?
Got an extra Titan Quest key for the first reply.
Imho a much better Diablo than D3 ever was, but it's not perfect by any standards and I haven't played nearly enoug yet. For the price though, it's an absolute steal.

Oh coolies! ill take the key too.
You can get 5% off at GamersGate with the code IAMANELDERGEEK.

I think I'll wait then, besides, I've got a big enough backlog as it as. Those screenshots in the PC pics thread do look all kinds of lovely.
Other Steam-friendly GG Dailies: 75% off Galaxy on Fire 2: Full HD ($5) and 70% off Mad Riders ($2.99).
If you like the genre, I'd recommend you try Path of Exile. It's going open beta in january but you can get a key now for $10.
Ooh, Galaxy on Fire was fun on my tablet, tempting... thanks for posting that.

Tempting, but I think it's better given to someone who will actually play the game

Whoa, that's an interesting read! I was vaguely interested in the game until now.

But only few of those who participate in this thread actually play their games.

There's currently a way to get a 90% of coupon for Death Rally, but it requires facebook (stolen 1:1 from reddit)
Sadly, this won't even work for most here, since it currently doesn't stack with the 15% discount you get for owning Alan Wake.

Corpse Party.
Loads fine for me.
I just haven't seen it on sale since then is all. I'm guessing it got a midweek or something and I missed that too.

Boo!
Valve "fixed" (i.e. removed) discount stacking after it was discovered earlier in the year that Raptr's 75% discount code for Sam 3 stacked with the game's Midweek Madness discount.

I think it's a choice you have as a pev/publisher when you issue coupons. The Grimrock coupon from the winter seal worked during the autumn sale I think.
If they don't let you stack, they should at least let you choose which discount you want.
Will unlock in 5 hrs.
This looks interesting, and they say it takes more than 20 hours of game time.

I notice it doesn't seem to have a buy button or price, does that mean it's only available in certain regions or is it just because it hasn't unlocked yet?

It's not for sale yet. I'm guessing it'll be 10 bucks: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/18532/?snr=1_4_4__105
The latter -- there's no pre-purchase period. If the game weren't available in certain regions, you'd see this instead:
