steam deals definitely dont seem as great now that amazon/gmg is in the picture...but holiday sales are generally better than their other promos throughout the year

I bought CSS last year during their holiday sale. haha, old game but still good times. I still suck though :(
I wish I had money and the hardware to run CSGO :(

I hope CSGO goes on sale. Hoping for a deal better than the 50%. If not, I may jump ship and try out the new CS.
I'm really hoping Amnesia goes on sale. I missed last year's deal.

Perfect, I was waiting for this to go on sale, and this is probably even better than what Steam would offer!
I opted for the $4 cashback rather than the $6 voucher, since I probably won't buy from there again unless there is another insane deal like this

it looks pretty darn good with it
the game sucks without a controller though...doing combos with a mouse :lawl:

With the extra DLC civs being like 1.75 per I picked up each of those. Babylon is without a doubt one of my favorite civs now (free Great Scientist w/ discovery of Writing, 50% faster GS development) If you can pull off a rush to Great Library, National College with a turn 25 or so Academy down, on lower difficulty levels you'll end up using artillery vs swordsmen and on higher you'll be able to stay even technologically.

here's a nice site that shows pricing history...generally when something is 75% off it's at its lowest price.
note this is only steam sales...there could've been a better price via GMG/Amazon

Yeah, I always go for Great Library, National College unless I'm playing humans (it's pretty easy to get GL against AI, but you really need to get lucky with your start and finding ancient ruins that increase population if you want to get it against humans since almost everyone goes for it).
I only play on Marathon, though, so 25 turns to anything decent is nearly impossible LOL

The 85% off Civ 5 deal on GMG is for the expansion, and you'll still need the base game to play. Anyhow, Civ 5 is still $7.50 on Steam for the next 7 hours, so you can still get it there.

Haven't played multiplayer yet, but I enjoy getting the other victory conditions. Conquering seems too easy and sometimes fast. Trying to get a cultural or scientific win on the harder difficulties are intense.

I got a $5 Amazon promotional credit when I bought the Bioshock pack for $5, during the Christmas sale. The promotional credit is valid from Jan 1 to Jan 31, on their Editors Choice games. Some games/bundles have discounts, so that $5 could make a significant difference. I bought The Darkness II for $2.50. It looks interesting enough to throw a few bucks at.
The Witcher 2 on Flash Sale for $7.49
Save 91% on Sleeping Dogs on Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/202170/)

I got the $4.50 deal on sleeping dogs and most of the DLC for under $5
I've been saving all of my purchases as gifts in my inventory so I can always trade them if I decide that I don't want to play them.
Went back a couple hours later to buy some for friends, but the error deal went back to $16.
