Thats not bad at all.

How is d2d with refunds on preorders?

James161324

Not sure. I only used them once for Chronicles of Riddick and Alpha Protocol. My one complaint is the Comrade Download Manager is absolutely idiotic, but you dont need to have it to download them or lay so i guess it's nbd.

I guess i'm going to pass it on it then. I haven't read much postive about d2d.

I've had nothing but positive experiences with D2D, and I personally like the Comrade program, but you don't have to use it if you dislike it. Steam tends to have more/better sales, but every once in awhile D2D has some really good deals. It's probably the best alternative to Steam imo.

How long is that sale going to last mass effect is tempting but i'm afraid steam may have them for 5

I learned this the hard way. On pc if it isn't new don't buy in the month of dec. wait for the sales

First buy of the year Sid Meier's Pirates. Have wanted to play it and a retial game at 2.50 i can't beat.

That is a sweet deal. It's good for 6 days; I'm going to wait it out and see if Steam has it on the Holiday sale first.

Topic now stickied since I predict the Steam Christmas Sale to begin very shortly, and post-Christmas sales may also begin in a few days. Until further notice, please keep all sale bargains, offers etc. in this thread. Other threads are liable to be locked. Cheers! :)

Thanks gb for the sticky, thats why I made this thread actualyl.. was because last year I remember hundreds of XMAS SALES/NEW YEARS SALES! threads around this time :P

square complete pack went on sale
88% off
$606.68 to $74.99
http://store.steampowered.com/sub/6931/

A ton of packs, but i just don't know. I just not sure if i want to spend most of my money on day 1 sales.

There isn't enough games in really anypack i actually want, that can justify a purchase.

Yeah check out the specials section a number of the packs have popped up. We are nearly there:P

Updated list with some of the new steam deals (:

That Square/Eidos Complete sale is crazy!
Already own half of those prolyl though so not for me.

Also Amnesia = $ and F1 2010 Racing = 19$ instead of $40

Steam sales have been cancelled. millerlight89

What ones have been cancelled?

Massive Steam slae has (unofficially) started. Rockstar pack at $40. BC2 for $6.75.

Alot of the games in the packs are on sale outside of them

James161324

Yeah, but I would only go for the daily deals until the last day. Some games get discounted even further as the sale goes on.

Get ready everyone.. steam is goign crazy with the sales from here till new years is my guess (:

I have nothing against D2D, I'm just not appreciative of their attempt at sales and discounts just yet. They usually mark up their prices higher than other PC digital download websites, and then they give these discount promos that bring it down to match other competitors. But then again, they have the price match guarantee, which I have never used or contested.

Elann2008

I have not seen that to be the case thus far... for the past few weeks, they have had a code which nets you nice discounts on all preorders. I got Brink on sale, Back to the Future on sale, BC2 Vietnam on sale. And where else could you have pre-ordered Black Ops for $45?

Not all of their sales are fantastic, but I like the deals I've been getting on preorder stuff.

and it crashed

This is crazy

and it crashed

James161324

I don't think it will be much longer. They just put some more games up there. P.B. Winterbottom for $0.50!

The tension is killing me.:P

These only last for so long or all day?

Steam specials jumped from 9 to 1032. Guess the sales have begun.

K, getting super meat boy. I have to wait for my controller though :Dmillerlight89

James161324

Also people the daily deals are coming, give them a second.
