The Great Steam 2013 Summer Sale Memorial Thread. You wish it was over.

So that concludes the worse Steam Summer Sale ever.

Akrillax

well at least we got these neat cards!

So far I bought :

Secret World (currently playing, it's good concept but VERY badly optimized, runs like schit)

Crysis collection (nice graphics but the controls and tactics feel overly complicated, like why do I have to switch to strength just to do a super-jump? Can't the game just do all that crap automatically? I prefer the "consolized" controls where jump means jump, armor is always on, and cloak is just a quick switch.)

Deus Ex HR + DLC (even tho I already played it on consoles 5 times, not sure why I bought it, doesn't hold a candle to the original.)

Killing Floor (like L4D with cooler ambience and nicer weapons, might become my new favorite zombie game)

Sleeping Dogs (like chinese GTA IV but better)

Witcher 2 (boring and slow)

Defcon (already have it, but not on Steam, it was like $2)

---

So far not very happy with my $67 purchases, maybe I've been a consolite for too long but nothing I've bought feels like a "casual game." It's stuff you have to study, memorize keyboard shortcuts, and learn shit on forums. I don't like having to spend actual brain-energy in my off-hours, it feels too much like work.

Anyone bought Under the Ocean? And played it? It sounds really impressive.

It's still in Early Access stage though.

It has potential to be very good, but it also has shitload of issues that need to be fixed, including strange inventory/crafting system.

But for 0.99 Euros it's alright. It was an investment for the future lol

so only thing I actually bought from steam was GTA complete collection, and half of that was paid for with money from trading cards

damage report:

Commandos Pack, Sleeping Dogs, bioshock infinite, Hotline Miami, bad company 2, max payne 3, rage, dmc 3 & 4, tomb raider, witcher 3

good sale, lots of games to play

Ok, so, the cards. I see people turning them into credit and stuff. How do I do that?

Also here's my final tally for the sale:

The Longest Journey

Psychonauts

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale

Frozen Synapse - Two Pack

Half Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax Ultimate Boy

Sine Mora

Cave Story+

La-Mulana

Shatter

Thomas Was Alone

Dishonored

Saints Row: The Third

Fallout New Vegas Ultimate

Kerbal Space Program

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Platinum

Universe Sandbox

Tomb Raider

Just Cause 2

Under your inventory when you click on a card it should have a green sell button.

Here's what I ended up with:

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon ($8.99)
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed ($7.49)
Strike Suit Zero ($2.99)
Tomb Raider ($12.49)
Chivalry: Medieval Warfare ($6.24)
XCOM: Enemy Unknown ($9.99)
and a couple of Rocksmith tracks (Mississippi Queen and Barracuda) ($1.94 x 2)

...so a little over $50.  Still pretty underwhelming.  Was really hoping for Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara but apparently Capcom likes having a wasteland for an online community in that one and wouldn't put it on sale.

You sell them on the Steam MarketheeweesRus

The Steam cards are already starting to go back up in price. Can't wait for some months down the road when these are going for like 5 bucks a pop.

Spent like $30 bucks.

Saved like $60.

The summer sale ones will probably get a little higher while the game ones will stay the same. I should've saved the 17 summer sale cards I got during the sale :?

Well that was one of the worst Steam sales I've seen. The same 20-30 games over and over..

So my damage is:

Monaco

Hitman Absolution

Tomb Raider and Tomb of the Lost Adventure

Dishonored and the Knife of Dunwall.

Just a Heads up.

Gamestop has been doing a PC game sale since the 22nd.

there are some games there like Sleeping Dogs ($8.99), Dragon Age Ultimate ($7.49), and others so if you missed out on anything go check it out.

pretty sure a lot of these are redeemable on Steam.

Holy balls, Sins is hard.
