Every time I hear "in my opinion" or "just my opinion" makes me want to strangle a puppy. People use their opinions as a shield that other poeple can't critisize and that is bs.

If you can't defend or won't defend your opinion then that "opinion" is bs. Stop trying to tip-toe and defend what you believe in.

Space Hulk seems to be on sale at the moment.

Poor ignorant guardsmen, it be but one of many of the great miracles of the Emperor! The Emperor is magic, like Harry Potter, but more magic! A most real and true SPACE WIZARD! And for the last time... I'm not a space plumber.

9€ is still too much for Space Hulk.

However 7€ for Bioshock Infinite?

I bought MG:Rising (not sure if that counts for the sale though), but this steam sale I am really just looking for a lot of smaller titles.

Trying to grab a bunch of good cyberpunk games. Anyone have any recommendations?

12.49 for shogun 2 plus all DLC... tempting.

Shogun 2 is the cutest game ever. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Nothing else has really caught my eye yet, though. Maybe Company of Heroes 2 will be heavily discounted at some point?

AI War is 75% off.

Much the same. I did pick up Space Hulk, Bioshock Infinate and The Secret World though but these are games that I was specifically waiting for the christmas sale for.

The game that I am still waiting for is Europa Universalis IV.

I think it took me about 10 hours to complete the main game and that was using a run and gun approach most of the time. If you want to do it properly it would probably take at least twice as long. Its also very good.

I'm still playing through Space Marine and Skyrim that I picked up during their last sale. I'm not going to look too close at this one.

XCOM enemy within is on sale for the next 7 hours or so at -50% which is probably the lowest it will go.

@H.B.M.C.: Ugh I hate you since I waited till the last steam sale, didn't get a sale and just bought 'enemy within'. Now it's 50% off. At least I got to play it sooner.

Anyway is the commissar in your avatar having an existential moment? I feel like playing this music would be fitting with your avatar while the commissar is killing guardsmen.

So I bought The Secret World (because clearly I hate money) and the story seems to be a blast.

My internet connection has proven that it is absolute crap though, so the game is basically unplayable.

@carlos13th: Everybody gets their *ss kicked by realm divide in shogun 2. I think there was a thread about it.

@palindrome: I was actually interested in the secret world for a while. How is it (or when you get to play)? I always wanted to go with the illuminati for some reason. Can't say I'm very fond of the other groups' styles.

Got the Dishonored GOTY though. Glad I did wait till now because supposedly it's very short.

I only played the base game doing the "pacifist" playthrough and it took a good 15 or so, but I love to explore and find the little secrets hidden in games like that. Great game.

I just got a new laptop and while it can't run a lot of the newest stuff, I bought a ton of older games for 2-5 bucks apiece that I've always wanted to try, stuff like Day of Defeat, CS: Source, Gary's Mod, Battlefield 2, etc.

Got the Sleeping Dogs collection aswell. Can't go wrong really for £5.99. And more dlc included than I've ever seen for one game before. Was abit ridiculous going through all that while I was playing earlier. Think I was sat there for about 5 minutes pressing enter.
