Welcome to the Steam Deal Thread V4! You can find the V1 thread (Nov 2010-July 2011) here, V2 thread (July 2011 - Feb 2012) here, and V3 thread (Feb-July 2012) here. Read post #2 of this thread for Steam FAQs and more.

This is a Wiki post. Please read this
We appreciate you helping keep this thread up to date. The sales change virtually every day so no one person has the time to update them all. If you notice a game is no longer on sale, feel free to delete its line from the sale list. Of course, if you see a game is on sale, add it to the list. Make sure your changes match the thread's format! For example, every game that's on sale is part of an unordered list. When adding a game to the list, copy an existing line and update the link, title, and prices. That way, the format stays correct. Do not list percentages off! We list the original price and the sale price here. If you have any suggestions for major changes to the post/thread, PM me (EastX) about them.
for instructions on updating the thread.

Preorder Deals - Updated 8/9
Group Buys - Updated 8/14

Several multiplayer Steam games are available in 2-packs or 4-packs. These packs offer a discount over buying multiple copies of a game separately. We also maintain group buy trade threads for several games, so please use those threads if you're interested in setting up a group buy.

Free Stuff - Updated 4/3

There are several free games and mods on Steam. These are a few choice ones; you can find a full list here. Note that free games are not permanently attached to your Steam account like actual purchases would be. You'll need to manually download a game again from the website if you uninstall it.

Steam around CAG

If you are interested in joining the Steam CAG Community or participating in a trade or group buy with fellow Cheap Ass Gamers, please do so in the dedicated threads and not in the deal discussion thread. In the dedicated threads you will find CAGers with the same specialized interest who will be much quicker (and happier) to respond than in the Deals thread.

Steam Retail Key List

What is a CD key and where can I find it?

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7480-WUSF-3601

The CD Key is a serial number with a combination of 13, 18, or 25 letters and numbers - it can be found on a sticker inside your game's case or printed on the game's quick reference card.
The CD Key acts as your proof of purchase for the game - Steam Support may ask for it if you need to establish your ownership of an account. It is recommended that you keep your CD Key in a safe place to ensure the security of your account.

Indie Bundles thread on Steam forums (link)

So I just got my copy of Metro 2033 (ordered from Amazon instead of steam sale...curse my need for physical copies!). Anyways, I knew it wasn't GFWL...but I'm just kinda surprised after noticing the "Only on Xbox 360 & Windows". You'd think that it would support GFWL, which is kinda strange. Now I know this thread is basically the anti-GFWL (and I get that), but I've never had an issue (except for Halo 2, but its fixable and understandable); maybe its just Steam + GFWL that causes issues.

Well good luck, the game is really awesome so I'm sure you'll enjoy.

My friend is currently in going to school in Europe and I offered to let him use my VPN for the Steam sale since he is stuck with European prices right now. Good thing he knows nothing about computers and the very notion of doing anything technically like connecting to a VPN immediately made him decide to just not care and pay the higher cost :lol:. Guess that turned out for the better.

Like I and other people have said, their was a 4-pack for the original a few weeks before it came out. They're probably just waiting until after this weekend.

Doesn't matter anyway, Amazon has a 4-pack up right now. $162 for the pack, $41 a copy.

My heart froze for a moment when I saw Valkyria Chronicles (thought it was released for the PC); should've read your post more thoroughly.

Yeah it's a combination of Indie Rock, Nerdcord Rap (Mc Frontalot) and video game music.

Part of me wants to buy in, but another part of me doesn't care enough just for a Frontalot and JoCo album. Especially when JoCo now went all mainstream Indie Rock and seemed to drop his nerdy influence to his songs.

Yep just standard retail it said, Installing it now 20g+ =( But it does come with the sewer level thingie. But the box itself is just the regular box. Compared it to how the anarchy edition box looks like online so.

I'll double check once in game and see if anything pops up. But going by the different box art's outlook is not good.

I threw a dollar at it, just for completionists sake of having all humble bundles. On that note, I finally made an account to tie all my bundles together...but I can't seem to find me key for the first bundle. Can someone post or PM me a basic structure of the email for the first humble bundle so I can search my various accounts?

OK Go! is surely the gem out of the bunch, and they rightly put it as BTA. I think I want it, but have to scan the tracks to be sure. Interesting direction by HB too. I'm sure this will trounce the other video game music bundle. Side note: many times when I go to groupees and they have closed music bundles it makes me curious and wishes I had the opportunity. I wonder if they have a different email/twitter for non-game packs.

I use the mobile version of Steam and it works great. To be specific, you can buy on the mobile version (Virgin Mobile Android works great in urban areas, not so much in Iowa when with my family). I haven't used the app to save storage space on my phone.

What is it listed as under your licenses + subscriptions in your account? Mine shows up as Rage With Anarchy and Sewers. I'd think yours is the anarchy edition if it comes with the sewer DLC.

Did a few quick searches...and I'm starting to wonder if the US PC version even has a Anarchy Edition box? I mean I see some links for cover art, but no images of the actual box...all the Anarchy Edition PC boxes I can find are European... Maybe there is no actual Anarchy Edition for PC in US, and its just automatically given to retail?

EDIT: This is all just a guess, and I'm probably wrong because I've never paid attention to Rage much around its release.

Ah ha! there may be hope then in the DLC tab there is Rage Sewers, and Rage Authority pack. Is that what you have in yours then?

Hm that makes sense only did a google search when I saw mine didn't have the "Anarchy Edition etc..etc" labeled on the box art like other examples hmm that is weird then they wouldn't advertise it as being "super special"
 
[quote name='Sophita']Ah ha! there may be hope then in the DLC tab there is Rage Sewers, and Rage Authority pack. Is that what you have in yours then?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that's the same DLC that shows up for me in the DLC tab.
 
[quote name='Motoki']Borderlands 1 was never $60 was it? So it has enough popularity now that it's move up to the AAA $60 on release category.

Well, Amazon got a 4 pack up, so I'm hoping Steam will follow suit.

Really bummed that they threw a BTA on the music bundle after my last check. For 2-3 bucks I'd consider it, but I'm not buying an incomplete bundle or dropping $8 on it.
 
[quote name='Sophita']So anyone who jumped on the Rage PC from Newegg deal just got mine from UPS, Sadly not the anarchy edition.[/QUOTE]

What did the invoice they send you say? Mine said:

32-130-250 BETHESDA RAGE: ANARCHY EDITION PC 1 $5.99

Also did you check in the game to make absolutely sure that DLC is not in there?

*Edit: Okay I see that you guys are trying to get to the bottom of this. I can try and check when I get home too.

Then it sounds like even if doesn't say Anarchy anywhere on it, We still get the Anarchy edition :whee:

Yep it seem like what you get in the mail is just plain ole Rage, with the sewer level voucher in the box and no mention of Anarchy anywhere on the box or inside of it. and when you activate it on Steam it simply says Rage-Retail.

But when you go to your DLC tab on Steam it automatically adds the Sewer Mission levels as well as the Anarchy edition DLC. So it seems any version of the retail key is automatically the Anarchy edition. Talk about confusing.

European PC Anarchy Edition boxart. and US Console Anarchy edtion box art.

compared to the US PC Anarchy Edition box art

*Edit seems from the video beneath there actually was a US Anarchy Edition box art as well. But somehow the non Anarchy Edition box art and retail key is actually the Anarchy version as well but only in disguise.

However, it just says Rage on newegg.com

...continuing the search, now is the time for finding a US PC unboxing video on youtube!

EDIT: This video has a box with a "M"...probably US...:cry:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh_iwGU456k

...I've watched ~60 seconds of this video and this dumbass needs to burn in hell

it says from the creators of Doom and Quake, two games that no ones ever heard off
I REALLY hope this idiot just sucks at sarcasm
EDIT: Based on his comment, he sucks at sarcasm

I seem to remember a discussion like this when Rage Retail was really cheap thru Gamefly (I believe). I'm just happy that most likely I chose wisely to purchase the retail for the extras rather than wait for Steam to drop the price more plus miss out on the Anarchy goodies.

I think I just had a Napoleon Dynamite flashback. And I've never even seen that movie.

EDIT: I watched it until the end. The guy receives a phone call at the end and he stops to take the call. Meanwhile, the camera still records for another 10 seconds. lol

There are windows 8 builds out there for people to public test. It basically is the x360 dashboard but more for tablets. It is not an OS to replace windows 7.
 
[quote name='Motoki']From Kotaku via All Things Digital.

So apparently Gabe says Windows 8 is a catastrophe, he wants to push Linux more. Oh and we are all going to be using magical kinect sensor wrist bands in the future but tongue input won't take off.[/QUOTE]

Read that the other day on another site. Honestly, it doesn't really matter what Gabe says. Steam will work on Windows 8, he just probably hates the metro interface that they pushed on the latest public versions, not allowing us to disable it. If you disable the metro interface, it's not really much different than Windows 7 and has a bunch of useful features they're adding in. Not that it'll effect Steam at all.

Keep in mind, he also said the same thing about the Playstation 3 and ended up doing multi-platform inter-connectivity to it with the PC version.

I don't think his problem with Win 8 is the cosmetic stuff, rather the way it's trying to make the PC a closed system (ala iOS, where everything has to be purchased from a curated store, etc)
 
A bit late to the party, but if that "Indie" Gala bundle is real, its by far the best gala bundle ever, just because of King's Bounty.
 
Usually when I buy one of the indie bundles I'll install at least 1 of the games to convince myself I still care about "playing games". But with Build a bundle 2 and Indie Royale, I just bought them, entered the keys into Steam but didn't install any. All I did was look at total games owned number and smiled. Is this the start of a problem? Are there like meetings I can go for this :)
 
Just ordered rage from newegg, mine just says Rage PC Bethesda, it does not say anarchy edition. That is what my email said, is that the same email everyone got? Or should it say anarchy edition in the email?

My email says this:
Rage PC Game Bethesda

No the problem is when you don't even redeem the keys on Steam. Honestly I just redeemed 20 keys today from bundles tat go about a year back and only installed 1 of the 20 games.
 
[quote name='Motoki']Oh dear lord guess what the game of the day on sale at Gamersgate is? I can't even bring myself to say it.[/QUOTE]

I didn't pick Magicka up during the Steam sale because I kept reading that it requires others for co-op to get any enjoyment out of it. Anyone know if this accurate? Is the game not worth it for the single player? And I'm not familiar with how Steam matchmaking works. Would I actually need to already know people with the game, or would it randomly assign me to others?
