For those who enjoy gaming and don't know of this, Steam summer sale has started. It's on it's 3rd day and will finish the 22nd of July.

Every day there will be daily deals. Package deals will be available trough out the whole sale but I recommend to only purchase games when it's on a daily deal because it will have a bigger discount.
There are also flash deals and community deals. Community deals change every 8 hours and the steam users vote which game will be on sale every time.

As I'm writing this the whole Civilization pack is available on a Flash deal. Every game and all it's add-ons cost 25$. It's available for at least 9 more hours.

Reddit keeps good tabs on it. I'd check out the thread for each day to get better perspective.

it was 1.49 or 1.79 in the UK store at some point. You missed the flash deal, it'll probably show up again.

Some games do have wildly different prices(mostly newish games which set to their RRP prior sale), but mostly steam keep it fair.

Some more cracking offers. I'm tempted to buy Fallout 3 and New Vegas for a few quid each, even though I own both of them for Xbox :lol:

I wish I could play KOTOR again for the first time :(

Well jel
fecking hell. The best ever game for me, and I enjoyed playing it more than any other multimedia stuff.

I would really loved playing it again for the first time, but shame cause I know pretty much every detail of it.

I picked it up for £1.74 the other day, I have played it and thoroughly enjoyed it but that was years ago, so I thought I'd give it another go.

No doubt when I play it the story will all come flooding back to me, but can't go wrong for a game this good at that price!

I play Kotor and Kotor2 back to back once a year. I try to things differently every time. Great games.

Oh and btw, it's on a daily deal today so now is the time to get it.

You can get Civ V now at 75% off or the whole collection (all games and all add ons) at $25 instead of $139.

The Witcher is now $6.

For those of you who haven't played its don't miss out - its like a BioWare game before they lubed up for EA and before Casey Hudson morphed into a massive spastic.

Going to get The Witcher, it's only £1.74 for the enhanced edition, will try and get as many good games for a tenner. The Steam store is fecking up though.

If it's a daily deal or flash deal you get a higher discount. Every other game is on a default discount every other time. Most likely 50%. Newer games probably have it at 33%.

I only recently started playing Bioshock. I also own Bioshock 2, Deus Ex games and more that I still haven't played. What am I going to add next to this list?
It's an addiction :(
