Hold on folks,
that steam summer sale will come and make sweet love to your wallet and then leave the next morning without a word and 8 months later you're thinking, '' where did all these games come from...''

Picked up the Double Fine bundle, only had Psychonauts from it and I've been wanting to play the other games.

Americans are the only people free enough to get games for free. America 1, socialists 0

It's to keep server use manageable.

Well, it's not Steams fault, since the devs and publishers decide whether their games should be put as deals and how less expensive they are going to be.

Wait you guys are actually buying your linux distros. They are surposed to be free anyway. Amazon is just a quicker download.

This.

Steam's sales are a fucking joke. If you shop around, sites like Amazon, GOG, and GMG all have amazing deals. I got Bioshock Infinite for full retail price, but also got XCOM, Bioshock 1, Spec Ops The Line, AND 4 bucks of store credit. After that, I preordered Last Light for 33 dollars. Didn't get the virtual book, but I saved damn near 20 bucks and still got my preorder bonus and my Dark Horse comic. Can't remember the last time I bought a game on Steam itself.
