So, it's rumored this will be beginning any time now. Has anyone else quit buying daily deals, sales, etc for the last couple weeks in preparation for this? I fully expect to buy many games that I will not get around to playing for a long time.

I always forget there is a sale they do during the summer. A summer sale. But I am glad for the reminder, as I was just thinking about purchasing some games. I am definitely going to hold off on that until the sale. |

Looks like amazon is getting into the PC summer sale business as well. http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_378683482_4?ie=UTF8&docId=1000716161 Borderlands+Borderlands2+DLC Season Pass for 21.99. Not too shabby, since the season pass is 20 bucks. |

Green Man Gaming supposedly has just BL2 + Season Pass for $13.99 (use promo code: GMG10-U49LX-GAE17), but the site is down for maintenance at the moment. Season Pass is normally $30 and does not come with the add-on characters (mechromancer and psycho). Been having so much fun with this game. The final DLC they just released is awesome. Basically one of the characters DM's a D&D game that you play within. So instead of shooting psychos and robots, you're shooting orcs and skeletons and spending eridium to roll 20-sided dice that determines loot quality. The ending was a good combination hilarious and poignant. Probably one of the best DLC's I've ever played. |

That's excellent, the promo material they had released had me intrigued. I'll definitely pick it up now based on your recommendation. |

Not too shabby, since the season pass is 20 bucks. Thanks for the heads up. Picked this up last night and got it downloaded. I really enjoyed Borderlands, but I haven't gotten a chance to try Borderlands 2, yet. Gonna be trying it out when I get home from work. Looking forward to it. |

I'll keep an eye out. |

Steam usually flips their sales/specials at 10am pacific. |

Oh man, this steam trading card thing is going to be awesome and dangerous. At least a good excuse to replay some old games. Trading cards for playing psychonauts? Don't mind if I do! |

I don't understand the trading card thing. What is it? |

I don't get it either, seems dumb. You collect cards from different games to complete sets, which turn into badges, which you redeem for dumb **** like a wallpaper on your profile? Pass. |

All steam games on sale in decending percentage of discount: http://steamdb.info/sales/ All game packages (games + dlc, multiple games, games +soundtracks) http://steamdb.info/sales/?displayOnly=Package&cc=us Also, did some more digging on the trading card thing, kind of disappointing that it's linked to play time now and not anything specific. So i'll probably just get them as I play naturally, don't give a crap about grinding, same as I felt for steam achievements. |

Ok, this thing is amazing, it tells you how many games you own, how long you've spent, and how many you have never played. http://steamdb.info/calculator/ All the humble bundles I've bought have completely wrecked my stats.
