I think you'll really like Far Cry 3 and Dishonored.babinro said:
The rest I don't have and minus COD I'm looking for most of your list.
I really want Bioshock 1 and the Half-Life 2 Episodes (i know, i know, i could have picked up the episodes cheap at some other time...).
Nothing, I don't want anything...
Then when the sale starts, I'll want EVERYTHING!

Except that, I have my limits.Shinsei-J said:
I'm taking my credit card info off steam during the sale and using it IFF all the Borderlands 2 DLC is on sale and when Bioshock Infinite comes to Mac.
On a somewhat tangential topic, formal logic is fantastic.

fucking this right here.Dirty Hipsters said:
also, FUCKING DLC'S GOD DAMMIT.
on occasion SOME companies put a wee little 10% off of DLC's, but a major amount of them charge 20-40 bucks just on DLC's alone...I'M NOT PAYING MORE FOR DLC THAN I DID FOR THE MAIN GAME YOU FUCKERS, put that shit down to 10-15 bucks in worthwhile content and then you might get a chance at my money.
I can't lie, DLC is one of the main things I'm hoping goes on sale. Specifically the latest Dungeons of Dredmor DLC. Those guys are pretty good about putting their DLC on sale, I got the other paid one for, like, $0.69 last Summer.gmaverick019 said:
I'm also hoping a good space sim will go on a daily deal on GoG's summer sale at some point. If nothing has by the last day of the sale, I'll probably buy Freelancer 2 at "only" half off, but I'm holding out hope for something crazy like the whole Wing Commander series being half 75%[footnote]Edit: It's already all half off, I think my thought process was something like "half of what it costs right now."[/footnote] off.
Bioshock 1 and/or Infinite (preferably and)
Crusader Kings II DLC (Legacy of Rome mainly, but all of them would be great)
Maybe Borderlands 2 if it comes out cheap enough and I'm missing something from the list.
Other than that, my usual policy of picking $5 and under games that snag my eye, $5-$10 games if I've at least heard of them (and liked what I heard) or if the description and sample vids look really fun.

69 cents? hm...Owyn_Merrilin said:
that is a steal. but seriously, even outside of season passes DLC is going to cost you an arm and a leg outside of the games to date price, (hell look at mass effect DLC prices, tell me how much they've changed)
I'm going to try and get as many indie games as I can this time around. Last time I got a few bigger games, which were nice, but this time I'd like to get just a good variety of littler games.

Yeah, that right there would make my day. Also, honestly this is the very first time I'll have ever been able to participate in the Steam summer sale, and quite frankly am just looking forward to all the stuff that I might actually be able to afford, even on my paltry salary.Owyn_Merrilin said:
Nothing nada zilch
...Who am I kidding. Probably something that 75% off and under $5 that I'll never actually play since I have so many other games in my hoard.

Not much I can think of off the top of my head, honestly. I have, or have played, most of the games I've been interested for the past few years. Not much current or upcoming that interest me. A few, but they're at least a few months off.
Glancing at my "wishlist" (of which I really need to clear out sometime) I'm seeing a few games I may grab, should the discounts prove substantial enough.
Notably:
Another World
Dishonored
The Cave
Sniper Elite V2
Rayman Origins
The Swapper
Though, if Starbound shows up on pre-order for a discount...
I'll be on a four pack of that, times two, so fast my bank won't know what hit it.

I think I'll at least be sending Kerbals to the Mün... I've got one orbiting the Sun in the demo. Missed the damn Mün by about 20 degrees. Stupid little silver liquid fuel tanks...
Might just grab Skyrim finally (since there's an edition with all the DLC out), a Steam summer sale is kinda like grabbing a box from a bargain bin... so I wouldn't be breaking my Elder Scrolls tradition by much.
Antichamber is on the list, so that's a maybe...
Might get the Witcher 2, despite not finishing the first game. Looks like they fixed those controls that couldn't decide between action RPG and turn-based RPG... and went solidly with action.
If the Starforge Alpha pre-order/early access thing goes on sale (doubtful), I'll pick it up...
There are probably a bunch of little indie games I'll be adding to my library too. Retro City Rampage suddenly springs to mind.

I'm saving for a 960gb SSD and 16 gb of ram so I don't think I'll buy any game. Yeah, it's upgrade the laptop time
