It's that time again: massive Steam summer sale, up to 85% off major games
They've done it again! With the nerdgasmic slogan 'Play it Safe -- Stay inside' Steam has just launched its mind-blowing summer sale. For just TEN days, between June 24 and July 4, there is a metric shit ton of awesome games available for so-cheap-it's-almost-better-than-piracy.
Not only are there cheap bundles -- the complete 2K Games pack for just £70 ($110), for example! -- but there's also a bunch of 'Today Only!' offers if you want to buy individual games.
For the next 20 hours, for example, you can buy BioShock 2 for just £10 ($15), or Counter-Strike: Source for £4.76 ($7).
There's no way of telling what will be on sale tomorrow, so keep an eye out! You can be guaranteed of some absolute steals.

"there is a metric shit ton of awesome games available for so-cheap-it's-almost-better-than-piracy."
I love that comment. XD
I hope Dragon Age and its expansion is for sale too. It's currently around $60-70 last time I wanted to buy it.

Ya! The Bioware games are missing at the moment... maybe they'll come later in the week -- it sure would be nice :)

Don't count on BioWare games.
They just had Mass Effect for $5, and Mass Effect 2 for $28 last week.

Dragon Age was on sale last week under the "EA Publisher week". I'm not saying it won't go on again during this sale, but it was just on for 40% off the pair on June 20.

"For just eight days, between June 24 and July 8"
That's more than 8 days.

I meant July 4!
But... yes... still more than 8 days :P

I don't understand why some developers sell their games only on Steam. I would currently buy two games, if only they were available DRM-free: Puzzle dimension and Eversion HD.
What are the devs thinking?
Jeff HesserJun 25th 2010 9:08AM
ya, why don't they just release the games to everyone for free. i mean the internet is so honest they'd just pay. stupid devs. way to point out the flaw in their business model.

Errm... you are aware that Steam games get pirated, too, right? Actually, I could pirate both of these games if I wanted to (just did a quick Google check to verify this).
But I want to buy them. So why are the devs putting hurdles in my way?

so fucking annoyed. i'm on holiday already, and steam doesn't seem to let me make purchases from outside of my country - it detects which country you're in and says it doesn't match the billing address. fucking bullshit
lazarevskiJun 25th 2010 12:36PM
Use a proxy or get someone from back home to make the purchases for you...

I encountered the same problem, but just put your "Current Country" as the country you are in now (the checkbox asks if this is the country you are in now). Rest of billing address stays the same as where you are from.
