Couldn't resist on Torchlight 2 9.99$ and Deus:Ex HR for 4.99$. Not as strong of a sale as last year but I found something to pick up.

I really want the Call of Duty series from 4 on up, just for the campaigns, it's just too bad that they're never at low enough prices to justify dropping that much for them. Really enjoyed 4, Black Ops 1 and 2's campaigns.

My brother gifted WaW and 4 to me for Christmas and BOII was a gift from my mom's side of the family. Though funny story about WaW and 4, I ended up buying them myself too, I bought them from the mobile app so I didn't see that I was gifted them, and I ended up with 2 copies of each. I just gave the other 2 to my brother, but still spent $20 that I didn't need too.

A fun question: How many of guys buy your games as GIFT-INVENTORY, and do not activate/add game to library? I still have Torchlight 2, Deus Ex: HR The Missing Link, Rage, Hitman Blood Money in my gift box. :P

What about the games we DIDN'T buy? Should I feel more regret for not purchasing Dishonored or Borderlands 2? Every game I didn't but, I told myself I was saving for the 4th of July sale... With a library almost reaching the 300 level, it's hard to justify more games I haven't the time to play >_

I have. If I'm not playing them, at least there's potential for me to trade it for a game I probably won't play as well.

That's smart. It wasn't until a friend pointed out the same great advice; I decided to follow suit. Besides, if I'm not planning to play it any time soon, then it doesn't hurt for it to sit in the gift box in the meantime. :)

Yeah; too bad there's no way to get codes purchased outside of Steam to the gift inventory. You're forced to activate.

Hopefully an equally awesome GOTY edition with DLC and uber-goodness will be available by the 4th of July...

Well the sales are over, but my rambling never ends lol (What can i say, i love this thread).

I only have one regret during this sale, well make that two... missing out on Sleeping dogs for $5 and not purchasing Rage. I know the latter got average reviews and quite a bit of hate but it looks so appealing to me, i think i'd enjoy it. Oh well there's always the next sale i guess.

I'm currently catching up on my backlog but thanks to Steam it's also set me back quite a bit! All these new games i haven't even touched yet.. It's a never ending cycle i tell ya' :P
