A fun and unique adventure game, but beware the bugs.  I hit a game breaker about 4 hours in and couldnt proceed any further.  Was bummed, but didn't really want to replay the first part to get to that point again.

Finally picked up Velvet Assassin. I guess less than $2 + on Steam was what finally put it in my backlog.

[Crawley]

Kinda interested in that Street Fighter vs Tekken as I was huge in to Tekken way back when. But the last time I tried a fighting game I found out I lost any magic I once had playing those so will probably be disappointed.

  HOLIDAY SALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Teggy]

You know your backlog is way too big when nothing you want is cheap enough to pull the trigger on in the initial sales.

EDIT: OK, I lied, I picked up Intrusion 2 because it looks neat and it's cheap.

[Crawley]

Same boat. Just have too much to play still to even consider getting these games.

Only thing I'm looking to buy on sale is Far Cry 3. Maybe Deadlight but that's gotta go near the $5 range as I know it'll sit for quite awhile.

  HOLIDAY SALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, you are not kidding. I have had 23 items on my wish list, 20 of them are now on sale through January 5th. Sadly, I leave soon to go visit (arghh!) relatives for the next week or so.

[CeeKay]

You know your backlog is way too big when nothing you want is cheap enough to pull the trigger on in the initial sales.

yeah, my rule for this year is nothing that isn't on my wishlist and even then it has to be at least 66% off.

[CeeKay]

Maybe Deadlight but that's gotta go near the $5 range as I know it'll sit for quite awhile.

good idea.  it's decent but short; took me just under 3 hours to finish, and that was with some repeating of sections due to the checkpoint system.

[jztemple2]

I'm using that rule, and even cutting back a bit on it, but I'm a sucker for racing games and the SimBin series are on sale. Well, maybe I can play them in the next couple of days before I leave

UPDATE: Well, I've found out that Steam can only handle downloading nine items at once . If anyone else has been stymied in their Steam downloads, I apologize for hogging the bandwidth

[EngineNo9]

You mean we couldn't have just started a new Holiday Sale 2012 thread or something?  50 old pages isn't enough?

I was wondering about that myself, but I figured others knew better

[Isgrimnur]

It's the same thread as the daily deals.  He just updates the title.  No point in letting one thread lie dormant while another one takes off, just to switch back.

[EngineNo9]

Except for the fact that people only interested in the most recent Holiday deals may not want to jump into a 50-page thread...

that's what the icon is for.

[jztemple2]

My purchase was a SimBin bundle and the ten simultaneous downloads were starting and stopping and hiccuping. Finally, after a couple of restarts, I restricted it to a single download. However, now that one is starting and stopping and hiccuping. You'd think every one in the world was suddenly buying stuff on Steam

Which only works if they were keeping up with all of the other daily/weekend/midweek sales that generally aren't all that interesting.    Anyway, enough of that.
