Steam Holiday Sale 2011:
Well its that time of the year again, time to stitch shut your wallets anus for the absolute rape-train Steam is sending its way!
Duration:
This sale looks to be going from December 19th to January 1st, or in FUTURE LAND (Australia) Thats December 20 to January 2nd.
Tips:
The tickover for new daily deals seems to be 4am AEDT, so if you are a night owl, thats how hardcore you must be to wait for the new bargains to tick over!

There will be items that are on sale the whole duration, and then there will be Daily Deals, and on the last day, there will be a "Best Of" Daily Deals where the most popular games from the previous Daily Deals will be back up for round 2.

The way to get the most out of the Steam sale is to not buy ANYTHING but Daily Deals until the last day when you know the game you want is not going to be a daily deal and is just going to be whatever price it has been for the duration. The reason for this is you'll see say GRID for example as 25% of now, but later on it might be a daily deal and be 80% off. Items on sale already i go more on special for a Daily Deal, so be patient if you want to get the best price possible, and if you are new to Steam sales, you will be surprised by how cheap some shit gets!

Not sure about that. I borrowed it for free and I think I got ripped off. :P

Its crapness was entertaining for about 15 minutes, then it's just awful.

It's pretty good @Skarteh but with so many other games to play I always seem to neglect it.

Oh hay guise, I received a full copy of Recettear, but already own it. It's an awesome hybrid RPG, and very funny. Anyone wanna trade for it?

Also, Day 3:
Neverwinter Nights 2
Monday Night Combat
Sherlock Holmes series
Payday: The Heist
Grotesque Tactics series
Defense Grid: The Awakening
F1 2011
Jurrassic Park
Mount & Blade series
Batman: Arkham City
STALKER series
Swords & Soldiers

Which of the above do I recommend? Mount & Blade Warband and all STALKER games. Arkham City is excellent too.

Is Neverwinter Nights 2 any good, does anyone know? Seems like something I'd like, but you never know.
