I'm still looking forward to earning free games coupons.

Never played it. I lost interest halfway through HL2, and never felt motivated to pick up the sequel.

I don't get into anything for halves. It's all or nothing. Regarding HL, nothing.

Hmm... not sure that's how half lives work.

Yeah, I think you're suppose to loose half your interest in the series with every game, right? Not all your interest in one game.

Have they done anything with those since the last sale?

Tsk. Tsk. Talk about anti-climactic.

On the other hand, I'm tempted by Space Marine. Even if "The Sale" happens next week, I'm going to be too busy / into to other things to enjoy the meta-game. Too bad. I was looking forward to the spectacle.

Something I just saw on reddit about why there is no summer sale.

Spoiler:

It would have been the third summer sale.

Yeah that DoW weekend sale is pretty good people. I'd recommend the DoW2 Complete Pack I think. Lot of good gaming for $15.

There's been some decent deals in the last week. Maybe this is the "secret summer sale"?

Is that really any different than what's already built in to the Steam site at http://store.steampowered.com/search... ? Not trying to be snarky, honestly I'm curious if there are any new features or anything.

No, it's just pulling the data from the same place. It will probably get hammered a little less than the Steam webservers though.

There's a sale history, and it's page-less. I'd say it's a little better, at least.

Oh my god 75% off Dawn of War! This is the greatest Steam Sale of all..... wait... where are the other games on sale... what did they do with all the other games?

There was meant to be the thing... with the discounts... and the joyous gifting.... and the angry cries at crappy coupons... ah man. *le sigh*

I just got a 75% off coupon for Serious Sam 3 BFE. It's good through August 1, so it should stack with any sale price. If anyone wants it, let me know!

Usually they put in the small text that you can't use it with any other sale

I've never seen that on Steam.

Not seeing anything like that here...

And I've used coupons on top of sales before...

I remember seeing it after the last summer sale? Or other big sale. It was like 20% off of Portal, or Half Life, one of those.

I could be wrong, but what does it say in the "Learn More about Steam Coupons"?

It links to the Steam support page about coupons, which says, among other things,

Can I use coupons on already discounted items?

Coupons are valid on discounted items unless specified otherwise.

Nice one, I stand corrected. Guess I got ones that specified otherwise

Guess they got tired of you all saying how crummy the sale was last time. Nice job jerks.

Yeah. Jerks.

Really, it's all Lobster's fault.

Apparently you guys aren't part of the Super Secret Steam Sale club. It's invite only. They're gonna pay me $100,000 to take a copy of Skyrim off their hands, all I had to do was provide my bank account information and credit card number to their Nigerian processing site/princess in need of assistance, and BOOM, you're in.

Like the story says: It's my nature. (NSFW language)

So...fun fact...I don't actually know how steam gifting works. The generous offer I made a few pages back turned out to be a lie. If I told you that you had something coming...expect an apologetic PM. I will figure out a way to get stuff out some time in the future. My bad.

EDIT: I don't know how steam gifts work. My bad.

But you promised me a copy of My Little Pony Dance Party Revolution!

I'll take it if you still have it.

It's yours, radaxian! Just sent a friend invite.

A must buy, everyone should have such a game on their steam list.
