    The price is currently -$10. Yes, MINUS ten dollars. That's 150% off. Can't imagine THAT lasting too long.

    Now that it's fixed, the prices are £4.99 / $4.99 / €6.24. Sorry, Eurozone!

    ...no, it's still showing it. Also, Europeans - Germany in particular - get royally screwed over (again).

    It was showing it, but you couldn't get it. Now it's completely fixed at 75%.

    If you bought it at -10 bucks, would you actually get 10 bucks to your account? Could I buy it a million times?

    No. And by that No to the second point too.

    You can tell we're getting close to a major sale because the daily deals suck.

    Really? How can you tell? They suck half the time anyway.

    Daily Deal:

    header_292x136.jpg

    £1.49 / $2.49 / €2.49. Probably worth that - it tends to get repetitive quite quickly, but it's not BAD, per se.

    Actually, slightly odd thing. I wanted to see if the original SiN was on offer as well, but I can't seem to find the store page for it on Steam any more! How bizarre.
  • GibbeynatorGibbeynator

    I like that the store page lists "episodic delivery" as a feature of a now defunct franchise.
  • Darth MarsdenDarth Marsden
    edited November 2012
    I love how it never even got to deliver on that promise at all, since it only got the one episode.

    ...sigh...
  • der_ketzerder_ketzer
    edited November 2012
    Wasn't the old Sin included in Episode (unless bought in Germany of course)?
  • Darth MarsdenDarth Marsden
    edited November 2012
    I... I'm not sure. Let me look into it.

    EDIT: It was available on its own or as part of a bundle with Episodes. I don't know if buying Episodes now will get you the original game as well, but the Steam page says absolutely nothing about it.

    Oh, and the new Family Guy game is out. For what it's worth.

    Many thanks, my heretical little friend.

    I forgot to mention that I'm working late all this week, so I won't be able to do the Steam stuff. Well, I'm actually home early tomorrow, but I'll probably be a bit busy with OTHER things.

    I have no idea when I will have access to a PC with internet tomorrow. We go and visit grandma.

    As the back-up's back-up, I work during these hours tomorrow. I guess the Steam deals will be posted when they're posted. :p
  • Darth MarsdenDarth Marsden
    edited November 2012
    Or maybe people could, I dunno, actually check Steam for once. Shock, horror, etc.

    I'll post it, provided I can find a spare 45 seconds tomorrow.

    EDIT: Dashing has very helpfully pointed out that the Steam Autumn Sale starts tomorrow, which explains why there's no Midweek Madness up today (in case anyone else was curious). So... I really won't have the time to update this thread!
  • JohroJohro
    edited November 2012
    Hmm. Folks, if there's no update in a relative time period, you should check it out yourselves ;) Sorry, but my workplace is strict about this stuff. Too much abuse with web and cell.

    No no, I'd never ask anyone to do anything while they're at work. I've been in that situation... :(

    I can honestly say that I usually wouldn't know what the deal of the day is if not for this thread, so thank you guys for keeping it going.

    That said, I usually find it easier to keep track of the larger sales by visiting the Steam website, so this works out for me anyway. Besides, I'm still tapped-out from PAX, so it's not like I'm going to be buying anything during this sale anyway...right?

    I'm probably not going to buy much during this sale, unless, by some miracle, everything I want gets down to 5 bucks or less.

    I might be able to post the deals if no one else is around to do it, but the sales usually go up around my son's bedtime, so I can't make any promises.

    I appreciate it, but given how there's gonna be loads of deals, don't worry about it.

    As am I, so don't worry about it. Unless there's a mass break-out of spambots, I got this.

    Ooo, Darthmeister... I like that.

    As far as I can see the Magic the Gathering 2013 sale does include the DLC. I'm seeing 50-51% off on all of it.
    Also, a bunch of indie games are on discount as well.

    Really? Didn't when I looked, but it could well have updated. I'll defer to you on this one.

    Hey.

    Hey guys.

    I was about to purchase The Walking Dead, when I remembered my fear for zombies.

    You don't have to be afraid of zombies in that game. Humans are far more scary in it.

    Also Hypno Toad commands you to buy KOTOR II!

    Except I don't have KOTOR. I need that one first.

    So get it! It's the same price, just not front page'd.
  • der_ketzerder_ketzer

    Yes. 100 hours of Star Wars content for 5$. You'd be insane not to buy that.
  • Darth MarsdenDarth Marsden
    edited November 2012
    If you can, of course. I'm trying to buy it and Steam is just flat-out refusing to let me pay for the damn thing, not actually loading the payment page no matter how many times I try it.

    I knew it'd be busy, but this is is just bullshit. If I miss out on the deal because Steam is being shit, I am going to be absolutely livid. Incandescent with rage, if you will. I might even start turning green.
