Steam Summer Sale 2013 - It's never really over

Didn't the steam sale end two months ago?

A quick shout out to Mantid for the gift of Serious Sam! Now the media will have something to blame when I get in a slap fight with another dad over the last Rainbow Dash during a Black Friday sale!

The Sale Never Ends!

Steam Sale threads tend to keep going in one way or another till the next Steam Sale thread is made. That's why I stated early on that it would reach the number of replies suspected, because the giving keeps going and topics keep rolling even after the sale has ended. I'm quite curious what records the Winter Sale thread will have to beat.

I hate you Merphle. Now I won't be able to get that song out of my head for the rest of the evening. XD

I wanted to share I have the following titles to give away to any non-grinder whom sends me a private message. I'll send you the Steam Key.

Mark of the Ninja
FTL
LIMBO
Bastion

Agent 86 took me up on Mark of the Ninja. Enjoy sir!
Bill Bonney took me up on Bastion. Let the voice narrate your every action!

Another generosity aftershock compliments of Mantid. Thank you sir.

And just because it took me three weeks after the sale to catch up with the whole thread doesn't mean I forgot about the Shamrock Sheikh's awesomeness. A belated thanks you too.

Psst, Jonman, you rock!

There was just about enough in my Steam wallet to get us both a copy at sale price. Sod only gifting during big sales - I'm a renegade! Fight the power!

Knights of Pen and Paper +1 FTW!

I'll have to leave the stats until Winter is here. For now all we can say is Winter is coming(well maybe in the Northern hemisphere)

I'm looking for a Company of Heroes Steam key for a friend if anyone has one. I know it's been deeply discounted a bunch. He already has the game, but can't update it, so I thought the steam version would be the way to go. If not, I'll just have to wait for the thanksgiving sale next month. Thanks.

Edit - Looks like his existing key activated on steam. Sweet!

I would've picked this one instead...

I like the Chicken one... It's Alive!!

You say funny thing.

DeJanzie kindly sent me a copy of Papers Please! What a treat! Many thanks.

Thank you, jillsammich for the random gift of Retro City Rampage. It is delicately balanced on the top of my virtual pile.

Since this thread is operational again, I must thank Antichulius for sending me a copy of Mirror's Edge.

So, when does the next Steam sale start? My pile is way not big enough.

Thanksgiving Sale, probably 4-ish weeks, and another 4 or so after that for the Winter Sale.

Right you are gentlemen. I will may be on a self-imposed purchasing hiatus until then.

There's typically a horror-themed mini-sale around Halloween, but that's just for games with the words "dead" or "zombie" in them (i.e. 40% of Steam).

There's also a week-long Thanksgiving mini-sale around -- wait for it -- Thanksgiving weekend. I remember the discounts being nearly as deep -- though for not as many games -- as the main Summer/Winter ones.

And the Winter Sale is mid-December, when we're all doomed. I think even my pile has a pile now.

Edit: Batman/Antibatman-hausered!

Guessing $2.87 is the amount in your steam wallet.

Or HL3. Probably.

It's pretty obvious - 2+8+7 = 17, like City 17. We're clearly heading back there soon, in Half Life 3.

I've got at least one copy of the original KotoR and The Binding of Isaac to give away. The only pre-req is you have to friend me on steam. Squee9 is the name. I'm a sucker fo rhymes.

I envy whoever gets to experience Binding of Isaac when it first gets its hooks into you.

Oh man, it really does not end...thanks so much to Mortalgroove for Terraria!

These aren't Steam games, but still.

I have the following to the first non-grinder to ask:

Mirror’s Edge
Dead Space 1
C&C: Red Alert 3 Uprising
Trine 2 Complete
Mark of the Ninja
Eets Munchies
Brutal Legend
