Last year, GOG repeated all the offers in the Winter sale during the end, so you might still get a chance.

Good to know! Thank you for giving me hope! :P

Well, one addition I like is the boxes you get to pick. Although, a friend of mine has received a discount to a game he already owns... twice! They should have fixed that.

Discounts are discounts, I'm quite pleased; got some stuff I wanted for less than the usual price, I'm not about to argue with that.

Yeah, this sale - not so good.

Well, I've got all the D&D games (had none of them thru gog) at a massive discount, and The Swapper, Omikron, & Tales of Monkey Island in my random daily sales at deep discounts.

So...no, I do not find the winter sale a touch lacking. Now if I only considered the 50% off across most of the games on the site, then yeah, that would suck. But that's not the *real* sale now is it? The real sale is the daily bundles and the random daily sales (which is hit or miss, but lucky for me mostly hit).

Bought a crap load of good games for what adds up to about the price of one or two new triple A retail game(s). Also, I appreciate all the different types of deals and special discounts they have going, to keep things interesting. So, no, I have no idea what you are talking about.

Also, what's a Steam sale?

Dungeons and dragons pack deal ( one with baldur1,2 , torment, icewind dale series $1.99 each ) was cool.

It's when you pay less money than you normally would pay to own a game, to not own a game.

I could get a lot of games free on Big Fish Games just using the coupons they filled my email inbox with . :p

Don't expect a " we blown your mind away with a 75 - 85 % off discount on everything " sale on Steam in this holiday either .

Lacking?? You are kidding right?

Bard's tale.. collection, 2 dollars..

gabriel Knight, 1.50

Fallout, fallout 2, fallout tactics,, Free...

so for the Barely the price of a bottle of beer, I picked up 6 games.. Not to mention the other great sales, like the D&D bundle, or a bunch of others i have seen..

Has it come to the point that unless you get 100's of games for 50 cents, you are unhappy? Funny i made a post saying thanks for the great sale... not one person responded... Make a post that you don't like the sale, and it floods with people complaining, that it is not good enough.

I agree that the Daily Gift has been somewhat lean, but do you all remember the Insomnia Sale or even the first day of this sale?

I don't know about most folks, but I had a difficult time doing anything on the site.

Maybe they're running this sale the way they are (slower) due to the fact that their Servers couldn't handle it otherwise.

Just a thought.

I don't expect one, but I also don't expect valve to try and force games into bundles as the only method to get a decent discount. I really dislike the bundles, if the games were sold individually, and not lumped into bundles to maximize profit I would likely find the sale a lot more enjoyable. As is, I would lose money to get a better discount because of all the unwanted games jammed into the bundle. In the end I really don't care. I just started this thread to see if anyone else was feeling a bit luke-warm towards this sale. Some are, and some are not. So, I guess their marketing is working on a certain demographic at least.

Also, I have no idea who bigfish is. Sounds like a bad record label name.(Will google it now and see what I've been missing) haha

Big Fish was a brilliant Swedish metal sorta band. You can't go wrong with a drummer that sometimes drums on a dead cod. :D
