Steam 2011 Winter Sale

A rule of steam sales. Don't buy anything until last day unless it goes on a daily sale. Unless you don't care about a few dollars.

Day 1

Spoiler!

Day 2

Spoiler!

Day 3

Spoiler!

Day4

Spoiler!

Day 5

Now the real question is did you get anything good today? Did you get a lovely coupon? Perhaps a golden coupon? Maybe a game? What about a piece a coal? How did Gaben treat you today?

Meant to post this, I got Rift.

Now I usually get download speeds of about 1MB/s but now it's been really slow, 50-100 kb/s, anyone know how to fix this?

You get a coupon. You get a coupon! EVERYBODY GETS A COUPON!

Got 33% off on any Valve game and 50% off on Wings of prey?

Wait what? I'm confused.

MrJoey · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 12:44 am

I can't even get into the inventory to see what I've won.

What did you mean by don't buy anything until last day? And what are these coupons you speak of?

Brago · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 12:59 am

only buy something if its a daily deal, or wait till the end because then everything is usually on sale even cheaper.

cpinney · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 1:13 am

i bought orcs must die! and the gift for that achievement hasn't shown up in my inventory so idk what i got yet

MrJoey · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 1:16 am

There's no achievement for buying it, you actually have to play it and get the achievement listed.

cpinney · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 1:23 am

no i am not talking about the one for orcs must die sorry haha i am talking about the general one you get for checking your inventory.

MrJoey · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 1:26 am

It's working for me now, just click the link in the "goal" or whatever it is, and it should take you to it.

Edit: Got a 25% off any Valve title. *yawn* I think I already own all the valve games. <_<

I'd buy rift, but GW2 is on the horizon and I'm really scared to get into MMOs again.

Miguez · **Joined:** Nov 2008 **Posts:** 5003 **Location:**

But it's so cheap! And you've always been slightly interested in Rift! This is the perfect opportunity to check it out! :twisted:

Where do you see what coupon you have? I think im at the right spot but cant see anything as well. Maybe I got portal 2 because theres a tab there and I dont have the game? lol

Rift is that short, flirty brunette with half a tattoo "inadvertently" revealed benearth her semi-modest clothing that meets your eye for a split second as she walks by your table in the food court. Yeah, you're interested but the danger signs are all there. And she's cheap - to complete the analogy.

GW2 is the 15.76 yr old that you're waiting for; to further complete the analogy.

Steam is lagging so bad. So uhh.. just wait for your inventory to show. I've used Orcs Must Die gift and Bunch of Heroes and they both exist in my inventory even though I've used them.

As for the thing for Orcs Must Die achivement people haven't received their gift either in the forums. Unless you're lucky like Brago.

Why not have a go with the brunette? She might be the woman of your dreams...And the 15 year old will never find out!

I got a portal 2 coupon. If it gives you a game on your wishlist, I wish it was one better. I mean I want portal 2, but there are like 10 other games I want before portal lol

Also bought Europa Universalis 3 with all expansions for $12 (60% off)

Whoever wins the grand prize is one lucky bastard. I have 70+ games but have barely touched a quarter of them. But then again, free is free, even if it's all the 20+ Nancy Drew games.

Freakin Toshi.

The other day I bought and finished portal. I thought to myself "you know, I'd really like to play portal 2" and decided I'd buy it later on down the track. Thanks to this thread I just won it for free.

Thankyou, SRF

cpinney · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 8:08 am

just got ripped off so hard, i got half life 2 ep 2 for a gift game, which i already have and 50% off coupon for Bunch of Heros, which from what i have seen/heard is a POS game >:( also i did do the orcs achievement and got coal

SM-Count · **Joined:** Jan 2008 **Posts:** 2761 **Location:** /wave

Well I bought orcs must die like everyone else in the world, I mean, it's cheaper than a burger at my school T_T

The daily missions can be completed anytime before Jan 2 for the gifts/coal right?

Pretty sure it changes per day o.O so in like an hour now.

Probably, like the summer ones you could do the achievements anyday after, I think its just the sales that change daily.

Ended up getting a 33% off valve coupon. sign.

SM-Count · **Joined:** Jan 2008 **Posts:** 2761 **Location:** /wave

I got -50% on some random game that got 49 on metacritic and a -50% valve coupon.

XMoshe · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 6:41 pm

You're right, you can still do the other 'challenges'. You just get extra ones every day. I hope they'll put some challenges from the games I got lol xD
