Ditto.

Man, all those people that thought that they were going to get a game or something if they completed their badge must be pretty upset right now.

But that's pretty much their fault for getting worked up over rumors.

New vote: Alan Wake, GTA 4 and Fallout: New Vegas (AGAIN).

New flash deals: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (50%) and Assassin's Creed: Revelations (66%).

Gman5852 · 07/22/2012, 04:15 pm

If tomorrow is when I'll actually see the winner of today's vote, does that mean the sale lasts until tomorrow technically?

Johro · 07/22/2012, 07:06 pm

It'll be over by the usual update time, but probably wont end at midnight.

MusicallyInspired · 07/22/2012, 07:29 pm

King of the Fort.

Yey.

Johro · 07/22/2012, 07:49 pm

Yep, just look at the Skyrim countdown. I guess Steam is running this sale on Bangkok time.

If the daily deal tomorrow is Bastion or Assassin's Creed, wouldn't that be just the biggest kick in the nuts?

Johro · 07/22/2012, 09:05 pm

...and the final flash sales are:

Skyrim(50), Saints Row III(75), Max Payne 3(50), The Walking Dead(40).

Wild guess says that they were the big earners of this shindig.

Steam sales usually start and end at 10am Pacific time. In recent years, this has been the day after the announced end of the sale; prior to 2009 it was on the end day of the sale (which was a surprise when a sale announced as "through Sunday" would end at 10am Sunday).

Considered Saint's Row/Indie Game the Movie/Stacking for myself actually, but I grabbed Skyrim for a friend instead. I owed them one. =)

Walking Dead did surprisingly well on the days it was on sale, competing with similarly-priced "big names". Very impressive performance.

The episodic gaming format has really taken to Steam. It was among the best sellers for quite a while and(I'm aware the TTG delay helped but) shot right back up there with the episode 2 release too. It even hung around at the reduced discount price during slow periods.

Looks like Fallout New Vegas will end us off at 75.

With that $2.93 I had left on my Steam account, I ended up buying Broken Sword and the Cthulhu Saves the World/Breath of Death VII double pack.

3 games for about $3. Seems like a good deal to me.

flesk · 07/22/2012, 11:12 pm

So the community deal just counted down and reset to 10 hours? Tough luck being European and sleeping in one day if you want the summer sale badge I guess.

I got up 10 minutes before the vote ended.

And I got my badge.

Johro · 07/22/2012, 11:20 pm

No. The game changed and the last one is 10hrs because that's when Steam updates to a new day instead of leaving 2hrs of nothing.

You're right. I'm a bit surprised that not one hour of the last day of voting was on the 22nd here. If I'm not mistaken the last day turned out to be 0:00 - 8:00 UTC.

*Darth Marsden* · 07/23/2012, 09:03 am

...and we're back to normal with today's Daily Deal being...

£2.24 / $3.74.

Just a heads up - tomorrow I'll be working late again, so I won't be able to post the Daily Deal (or the Midweek Madness). If someone could do it for me, I'd appreciate it.

der_ketzer · 07/23/2012, 09:16 am

The EU gets a great offer here.
it's 3,74€
Wow.

Rather Dashing · 07/23/2012, 09:16 am

Actually, the price adjusted. I saw it at 50% like Marsden, but it has since been updated to 75%.

*Darth Marsden* · 07/23/2012, 10:48 am

Huh. So it has. Updated post. Good thing I waited!
