You guys! Humble Bundle has a new bundle! These games are all now in my Steam account!

Natural Selection 2 (was on my wishlist)
Sanctum 2 (already had, it's good)
Magica + Vietnam DLC (already had)
Orcs Must Die 2 (Total Biscuit really likes this)
Serious Sam 3 (heard it's good)
and Garry's Mod (it's Garry's Mod)

Re: Steam Autumn & Christmas Sales
Thank God, I survived the sale without caving on anything.  But winter is coming...

I caved and bought Tomb Raider.  All I'm waiting for now is the Legendary edition of Skyrim, Enemy Within, DX:HR DC (because why pay $5 if I can pay $2.50), and Witcher 2.

I have a rule with Steam sales, though:  I don't buy games if they aren't at least 75% off.  It cuts down on the temptation.

Re: Steam Autumn & Christmas Sales
Same goes for me. I was tempted for Metro: Last Light, but still, it didn't go below 66%. Oh well, there's the Xmas sale. I'll read Metro 2034 in the meantime, I've heard that Glukhovsky is working on a book that would expand on LL, and it'll definitely be set after 2034. So it'll kind of flow together.

I got Bad Company 2, its expansion, Crysis 3 and its expansion off from Origin. The Wolf Among Us piqued my interest so I got it off from Steam when it was in a daily deal.

GOG is doing their Christmas sale now as well. As StarSlayer pointed out, you can get Fallout 1 & 2 and Fallout Tactics for free.. There are also a bunch of games on sale, like Descent 1-3, FreeSpace 1 & 2, Total Annihilation, Alpha Centauri and others.

Re: Steam Autumn & Christmas Sales
The Last Remnant...only 2.50$ ... and yet I still don't think I'll get it...because "made by Square Enix".

And I've yet to see worse plot and characters come from anywhere on the planet.

Yep, I didn't realize that it included Planescape Torment until after I posted that, lol.

Quote from: "Consortium" Kickstarter update
We WERE planning on launching just before Christmas, but we've been informed by Valve that launching new games during the big Steam holiday sale is a bad idea...

If your wallet survived the autumn sale... prepare for the holiday sale, it IS coming, and soon.

Re: Steam Autumn & Christmas Sales
Here's hoping the Skyrim Legendary edition will make my 75-80% discount threshold =)

I finally uninstalled TF2 as I hadn't played it for nearly 18 months.  The hat-whoring was becoming problematic around the time I quit - I can only imagine now.
