If you are willing to go up to $2.49, about 3/4s of the site will be in your price range. At 0.99 you won't find much.

Does anyone have a link to the steam cleaner app to get rid of all the installers and junk?

some space left for "don't ask about Daily Deals" ?

Current title length is maxed out, when the sale starts there'll be a separate thread for it and the OP in that thread will have guidelines. I trust Salsa or MRORANGE or whoever takes on the role will do it properly, they're both competent individuals
If I had any ambition, I'd make a color coded graph for insertion into the OP. Cause what games are going to be Daily Deals is more science than art at this point. Totally predictable what games are going on sale and what their range will be.
During the summer sale, posts will be broken down to this...
"Should I buy ____?"
"Will ____ be a daily?"
"Wait for dailies!"
"____ is awesome, buy it!"

Missing the posts where people spew hatred at a game based on treasure hunt achievements gone bad

Ah yeah this one too...
...wait, we're gonna have summer achievements like before? I do hope they're free games again

I sure hope so. Although part of me wonders if they didn't learn a lesson and that's why they've kind of scaled things back. It was so funny. I still refer to Droplilz as ShitDrop because of that. Even though I know it's totally my fault.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
There will be achievements for lumps of Sand. The lumps of sand will be craftable into lumps of coal. The coal can be crafted into coupons. The coupons will be craftable into one free game. That game will be Bad Rats.

They should give out copies of Bad Rats for completing objectives and then you can craft Bad Rats into a coupon.

The last thread was great so in true gaming fashion I expect more and better this year!
Edit: Also Facebook and Twitter integration.

Just give it away, then you crafted your nothingness
But, you will have to pay $2.50 for a key to unlock the crate that contains Bad Rats.
Nah, for true poetic justice, it would net you a 25 percent off coupon for Bad Rats.
A coupon not usable until the summer sale is over (Bad Rats will be on sale for 30 percent off during the sale), and one that expires after another month.

I found QUBE quite impressive for a 3 person team project. I didn't regret dropping 15$ on it either.

QUBE is kinda tempting but I think I'll wait for the Summer sale

I need some help here. I installed the driver in this site to be able to use my 360 pad on my Mac. I reseted my Mac, and the pad is on, if I go to System Preferences I see the icon and you can check if it is working.
Rumble and everything seems fine, but when I run a game in Steam with Pad support (e.g. Super Meat Boy) it doesn't work. I don't what to do here since I'm still pretty newb with Macs.

Ugh! I want it but I bought dead island the other day. It'll probably end up cheaper in the sales, right?
You know, their bundles really have gotten worse. 19.99 is too much for one title with a Dead online, and most already being on sale for a few dollars.

The lull before the summer sale...
Also worth noting you get extra copies if you already own them.

Is this worth buying? Is the collector's edition worth it if I just want the game?
Edit: Also, are Gamefly legit? Steam code?
it's on green man gaming if you want to buy it right now, but I'm waiting to buy it on steam as well.
yeah Shattered Horizon multiplayer is dead, I really would ignore all deals until the summer sale from now on.
you can always buy the collectors edition afterwards.
