The steam summer sale.

[Tilted_Logic]

I'd like to pick up big name games Like Dishonoured, Bioshock: Infinite and Remember Me. I have such a huge backlog of games that I've put off buying them even though I'm dying to give them a try. If Steam can manage some awesome deals on those games I'm sold though.

 

[Goofguy]

Nothing jumps out at me for the moment but I can guarantee I'll be making several purchases regardless. I'm looking forward to seeing what's in store for us.

 

[mirage202]

Defiance and Civ 5 are my planned acquisitions (I missed the Civ 5 weekend).

Other than that, maybe a few I'd forgotten about if they go cheap enough.

 

[Commissar Sae]

Eh... there's nothing I want. Here's hoping that the Mann Co store in TF2 goes on sale too. Maybe the new Payday, but I don't have many friends to play it with.

Oh, I don't have Saints Row 2 on Steam, probably that and only that.

the PC port for Saints row 2 is incredibly buggy and suffers from some pretty serious lagging out issues when driving. So I would suggest you stay away from it.

 

[piinyouri]

If Titan Quest goes on sale that will be my purchase for the summer most likely.

 

[Sir Pootis]

I'll hopefully get Counter Strike: GO. I've been meaning to get into CS for a while, but the servers on Source are more or less dead, especially in Australia. I'll also hopefully pick up Beyond Good and Evil or Zeno Clash, and finally Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, if I feel like sparing some extra money.

 

[bluepotatosack]

Man, I bought too many games this year. I actually can't think of anything major. I'll probably browse and see if anything comes up. I was very tempted to pick up Crusader Kings II today when it was 75% off, but then I remembered I still have Shogun 2 to play through.

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

Is there any good JRPG's on Steam or some Indie RPGs that are great? Otherwise I really don't know of anything that is out that I really want that isn't a Console/Handheld exclusive.

Well, there's always Recettear, if you don't already have that.

Spoiler: NSFW, swearing

oh my gawd that picture is awesome, i can't tell you how many times i say "capitalism, ho!" in public and completely forget i'm quoting this awesome game... -_-

 

[Hunork]

Sanctum 2 80-75% off
XCOM:Enemy Unknown 75-66% off
Call of duty series(1,2,world at war,modern warfare 1-3)75% off
Wargame pack(europan escaliaton,airland battle) 75% off each
Borderlands 2 66-75% off

 

[BlackJimmy]

Borederlands: Game of the Year and the Borderlands 2 DLC.
What date does it begin anyway? I'd have though it'd passed already.

 

[masticina]

Mmm I dunno maybe some older RPG"s. Or hell they could get me with something fun.

 

[windlenot]

I'd love to pick up Borderlands, possibly GOTY edition. Possibly Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Really hoping Terraria will go on sale. I've been watching a let's play of it and been incredibly eager to play it.

 

[Dragonbums]

At the moment, the only thing that would interest me this year is discounted DLC for Skyrim.

Recettear was fucking amazing. The one major flaw is that you're not going to want to go into the dungeons much anymore as you near the game's end, because the items in them, on average, have a lower profit margin than the stuff you can just get from your market suppliers by the endgame. Oh, and because unlocking the later dungeons is in many ways luck-based, you're probably not going to finish (if you even manage to start it) the "save the world" subplot until the unlockable Endless mode.

I got Saint's Row 2 PC from Gamer's Gate a while back for crazy cheap. I'll admit that it is a pretty shoddy port but I found it to be plenty playable. Yes, it is buggy (more of the visual mistake kind and not the game crashing kind) and yes, the menu system is infuriating....but it is playable and highly enjoyable.

I just hope it happens after the end of the month. I just got a credit card, and it's exclusively being used to build credit score. Steam was going to be my reoccurring purchases, but I've mostly run out of games to buy from it, and my current balance is too high for optimal score building. If I'm allowed to hold off until July, I'll at least solve one of those problems.

Smart plan, I used my credit card for Steam purchases as well, but when I came to the same spot as you I started using it to buy my groceries, that's a great way to help build your score up, and it's something you need to buy anyways.

Anyways the games I'm looking forward to:

The Big Ones

Bioshock Infinite This is the big one. I've been holding off for months now that my PC can finally play it and will buy it at any sales price, but I'm hoping for somewhere between 33%-50%.

ArmA II: Combined Operations. I said I was going to wait for the Day Z standalone, but I don't think I'm that patient.

Far Cry 3. Bought it for my 360 before I got a decent gaming PC, now I want to play it again on this.

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. I know it's already $15, but if I can score it for $7.50 that will be a purchase worth boasting about.

Crysis. I have no interest in playing the sequels, but I am curious about this game now that my PC can finally play it.

There are a few other games that I kind of want, but may wait for a price drop even though they're already pretty cheap, but the ones listed are the ones I'll be picking up if I see them on sale regardless of the sales price.

 

[Lilani]

I'm going to try to grab mostly indie titles, but I've had my eyes on Walking Dead for a while now so I'm going to be watching for that one in particular. And maybe the Fallout games.

EDIT: That awkward moment when you realize you've already posted in a thread once before >.>;

It is still an incredibly fun game, but for me the lag issues I got whenever I tried driving somewhere ruined it for me. I still completed the game and had a blast doing it, it just meant I spent most of my time on foot rather than in a car. It is a great game but a very poor port.

 

[BoxCutter]

Borderlands 2 for PC, as i've lost interest in my 360 version. Other than that, anything interesting that is cheap.

GOG gave me all the D&D fun i'll need for awhile, so i'm not really going to be looking that hard for anything on Steam this sale.
