Rule #1:
From now until the LAST DAY of the sale, if a game is on sale as a daily deal or flash deal, you can buy it. If it is only "on sale" through July 23, pass. Do not buy. Save your money (you may need it).

Rule #2:
Check each day for the daily deals, and monitor flash deals. As games come up that you want, you can get them. Just continue to exercise self control for games that are not a daily/flash deal.

Rule #3:
You can purchase the large packs, such as the THQ pack or Square-Enix/Eidos pack at any time if you wish. It is extremely unlikely that those bundles will be discounted any further, even though individual games in those packs may become daily deals. If you want a bundle, go for it. Lots of games, excellent price.

Rule #4:
On the LAST DAY of the sale, Steam traditionally makes its daily deals an encore of the most popular daily deals from the previous days. Go nuts. Buy everything you wanted. New games are almost never on the daily deals during the last day. At this point, it is safe to buy anything else you've been waiting on.

Rule #5:
If you miss a game from a daily deal, STILL DO NOT BUY IT until the last day. As I said, the final day often recaps previous days' daily deals, so there is still a chance the game you missed could come around as a daily deal again. Don't rush it. If it doesn't, you can still buy it at the standard sale price on the last day, and just be sad you missed the daily deal. Just remember that if you missed it on one day, it's not necessarily too late. Save money by keeping a cool head.

GG is pretty good to be honest. I would even say that they're underrated.

Public Bank considers GG to be a gambling site and refuses to let me buy anything there. Wadapak

I had to ask Deimos Tel Arin to buy my GW2 key from GG because of this

Seriously would buy Cook, Serve, Delicious! if it was 1dollar

Any reviews on Euro Truck Simulator 2?

Steam is going nuts with random sales.

I never even heard of that game to be honest.

It's 25% actually... need to refresh your browser.

i just think the season worth the dlc other not so much

Steam greenlight

Greenlight and Early Access are probably the worst thing Valve has done to Steam so far.

Tonnes of shitty games got to Steam, while now, they can release shitty and incomplete games on Steam with no problems.

Rage, why no Aquaria again! All these early access stuff instead

Apa lagi, tarak starbound. If want put early access stuff, Starbound should be there due to sheer demand

I suppose this is good Put a 33% on starbound GabeN we give you Extra Big Mac :3

Actually what is GabeN?

Better than boring repeat sales I guess, still haven't buying anything since Bulletstorm.

I thought greenlight is games that are finished, but not available for purchase on steam?

Early Access memang

Wait what.. how come you don't know

No, greenlit games just mean that they can sell the game on Steam, regardless finished or unfinished.

Aquaria most likely will never be on flash sales.. its a an old game.. 

go for 4 pack starbound pre-order from their website, you get extra soundtrack for the same price as steam..

There are a couple that are worth getting like the Grass Root Pack as the weapon it comes with is pretty funny.

Also, Elements of Destruction with its AoE ability that will lit your enemies butts on fire and propel towards the sky.

Voted for Interstellar, looks cool but early access shizz..

kinda same with the melee weapon name penetrator which as is namesake impale people by their behind and shoot them as projectile. Most dlc are just cosmetics and that doesn't count much.

Just 1 week left and I still buy 0 games so far.
hohoho.
Even amazon don't have very good bundle offer.

Yup, I'm waiting for Nolan's Interstellar too. The trailer is definitely a great tease.

I got myself XCOM bundle 
Been dying to play it after I finish The Walking Dead.

Even the teaser made me feel like advance book the ticket.

What should I vote next?

What should I vote next?

I was really interested with Interstellar Marines but looks like they got nowhere till now, sadly.

Man my hand already itch wanna buy the xcom bundle. But worry suddenly gaben grant his blessing. Sked rage

I don't think it will go cheaper on Steam at least not on Winter. Too cheap for both to be 20usd.

intersteller marines was in humble store sale yesterday

Anyone?
