    Let's go ahead and get my normal thing out of the way



    Is the game you want on Flash/Daily?
    Is the game you want more than 50% off?
    Is it the final day of the Sale?

    If all three are 'No', consider waiting.


    A few things on my wishlist are on mini-deals, so I'll keep an eye on those.
    Despite my feelings towards Infinite, I might grab that Bioshock triple pack thing.

    In the words of the Team Fortress 2 Engineer "Nope!"
    Seriously, After that last sale, there isn't anything on sale worth my time... maybe Stanley Parable if someone is feeling generous.

    Had my mind blown to see Metal Gear Rising on there. But since it is only a preorder that does not release until January... gonna have to pass.

    Before every one of their big sales I tell myself there aren't any more games that I should buy. By the time the sale ends I've usually ended up with atleast 5 games. Luckily I usually set my budget at around $50 so I don't get too crazy.

    I've already spent way more than expected, just thought i'd get FF 7 and 8... instead bought a copy of them for the GF too, and Payday 2 for myself... and it's only day 2. That's all I really possibly wanted though.

    Well, I've fallen for the Stanley Parable, Jet Set Radio and Electronic Super Joy so far. I got a foil card from buying them, so I managed to get $4 off of that and I'm eyeing Blade Symphony. Anyone know if that's any good?

    I've limited myself to only things I stuck on my wish list. I've already broken my rule. Got myself Revengerence on principle and Hard Reset because super cheap. If anyone has cards to trade, I'm game.

    Also, Amazon and GMG are also having some really good deals. If you want some store credit you can use referrals on GMG to grant the joining person and yourself $2 credit. Also there are store codes that knock down prices of specific games to really low prices. Amazon also has some better deals than Steam is throwing out. Xcom: EU and its expansion for $20, which is what Steam is selling just the expansion for!

    For anyone who's even thought about playing this game, this deal is insane. Get it ASAP, XCOM is amazing.

    Since I myself don't use Steam, I don't have to worry about spending any money.

    Definitely good deals for y'all who don't have said games that are on sale.

    The only thing I might get is the Caesar in Gaul DLC. But that's not on sale.
