Tips to Survive Major Steam Sales

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 the entire sale, 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. Other 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.

any1 bought deadpool on steam? did steam pull it out? cause i cant find it in the store.

Overkill, I think gt750 & 12GB RAM will do fine.

you lambat, pull out long2 ago

now is collector item

Removed lonng longg ago. A minority of the community still sell the gift they got from sales but at a huge price of course

damn right. very2 slowpoke.

so since Steam forum is going to be remove soon, how will this thread survive? Bring it back to the first layer?

Nah Tarval* said that we will still have Steam sub-forum. Now they're just moving games forum to their respected genre.

eh, why deadpool was removed from steam? didnt noticed it ..lol

Licensing issue with Marvel, game removed on 1 January 2014. and the license will not be renewed so you won't see the game on store anymore. unless Activision change their decision.

deadpool kinda new game and they did this...

Activision and Marvel license contract expired. All the marvel game is pull off not only from steam but from other dd and console too. Some is Some game is still available like Amazing Spiderman

Uplay has international shipping now. Getting FC4 Kyrat Edition with DHL Express shipping to Malaysia cost around 109.99EUR. Will kena tax or not?

alamak terlepas lol

btw..free The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Booster Pack baby!

Completed The Wither EE under 29 hours What a storyline, totally worth it!

hold it...750 too shitty in games...should get GTX760 instead

that will be RM467.36 of course kena tax wey

Plants Vs Zombie Garden Warfare is added to Origin Game Time list, can play for 72 hours

i see you stare the woobie boobie for 14.5 hrs there
now move your ass to witcher 2.

gosh. lost my ME3 save file (70%) and so fking lazy to replay again.
backlog growth like hell and all i play is more MP games

Not >RM500 baru kena?

why are steam sales all year long....:S

Anyone played tropico 4 or 5?

The tropico 4 at 2.99 seems very tempting. >.<

Over at MUST, jersey delivered by DHL around RM300 also kena taxed by custom adi

only if use over air (selected courier only)
if by sea still kena tax but depends on kastam yang bertugas that time...
if he is strict then kena tax...
but usually boleh lepas punya...

Sales, sales never end.

Also, buy first regret later.

Problem is..sales never end.
And so far the buy 1st regret later moto failed.

I so far buy 1st and nth makes me regret. >.<

But wallet is an issue. haha.

I think software are not taxed...

Tropico 4 is fun. Tropico 5 seems unpolished and bugs are still unfixed.

Both involves being a dictator/ruler of an island where you build the economy, infrastructure and handle events that range from rebel invasions to tornados. All this while siphoning money to your Swiss account and ruling with an iron fist(if you want to).

Msi..... Simulator?

What's MSI?

It's like SimCity but you're a dictator instead of a benevolent Mayor.

Thanks for the reply. But is there any particular DLC that is a must to get the most fun out of the game?

Oh, i pm you now. Got some questions about tax.

How much is the tax percentage?

Great, I was thinking of buying a transformer from HK that cost RM500. If its like that, i better send it to Australia then as it definitely wont get away from tax in Malaysia.

I know for toys, >RM500 kena tax. The rest am not very sure.

Then, it is confirm tax for me. Market price is RM600-700 now.

It's only the retailer from HK is selling it at original price as they are the manufacturer.

What are you guys buying

Only Modern Times is required, but you can buy the Tropico 4 Collector's Bundle. It includes some special buildings that makes the game a little bit easier to manage.

Wow, new interface for steam.

Omg.. This looks awesome.

This.

Why not build Gundam?

It's not a Gundam.

Its Fort Max from the IDW transformers comics.Its a diecast figurine, not full plastic.

And I dislike building Gundams as I know I'll never bring the polishing detail up to that level with metallic paints and diecast parts. Original Gundam isn't cheap too. It also transform into other things like a tank and a head which a Gundam can't. The head can be taken off and transform into a small robot.

I know it's not a gundam. But to own they have their own interest. But that transformer does look epic. RM 500 price tag though lel

That is a very. I'd like to start my own robot collection but then no money lol..
Can't start later buy buy buy buy.. Just like my anime figures.. glad i've stopped no where to put anymore for display.

Don't collect figurines but I have 3 nanoblocks set so far. 2 more set unassembled yet.

Unfortunately, thats what happened when you want to focus on the quality side of things. If you want cheap ones, what you get is the movie line quality that can barely stand.

Considering that I am cutting down my games purchase as no point buying when a lot of them will be backlog while not many new games interests me. I guess its time to start a small robot collection.

I never bought them yet. I like it but mahal for something tiny

Haha ok la if you use your funds for other stuff.
I'll be in the same situation. If budget for game no use buy figures.

I am using most of my gaming funds for these transformer since there isnt much that interest me these days.

Gamescon is pretty dull this year, IMO.

Dont know what the heck did I just watch but I am interested.

Looks interesting. An alternative to the last guardian maybe. That fps though

That's because everyone is holding back for TGS.

Yes something like Ico and Shadow of the Colossus.
Looking good.

Eh. I thought more than 400 already kena. Hmm.

Haha really? I must go home check it then.

It's either the dev is high when brainstorming the idea, or the chicken lord have gained access to the Video Game world. Either way, I'm guessing this will a strategy type of game, but what kind tho

I doubt its TGS as most AAA games these days looked really dull to me. They really turned open world games into the next dull corridor shooter.

I am not really a fan of japanese games so TGS isnt really something I am looking forward.

http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/08/14/assassin...rotransactions/

Upay then Uplay

previous game also has microtransactions. nothing new

They've been making it a big deal on the PC Gamer site, will people really spend money on this kind of things Pathetic enough to "fast track" lel.

Anyway how is GOTG?

GOTG?

Guardian Of The Galaxy. You watched ady? Seeing that IAMGroot in your siggy lel.

haha rightly said...now i just dont know what games 2 buy even my bank is already very itchy in waiting 2 exploded with joy 2 be broken fast

quite good. love the action and humor. and Rocket so cute

btw, TSB has been revived. But the game prices
http://tsb.com.my/

op, natasha does better! or impulse

Some games is even more expensive than steam store, LOL...

are they really sure about the price?

What is this? lol!!!
How can the price be so expensive. I know they are a bit expensive than the others but this huge difference.. They will go bankrupt

Plus they are selling digital only games this time no more physicals.

As in the driving. How do you feel about the controls, handling etc.
I was in beta too but I think hari raya or something I cannot play that time balik kampung.

For those ppl that ordering witcher 3, they mostly go for gog or steam? got any different besides drm?
