    I was hoping that Telltale's GoT would've been fully released by now so it'd be on sale for dirt cheap like TWD S2 last year, but nope! So slow... and since it's still classified as "new game" I doubt we will see it drop considerably.

    Other than that, really not much on the store that I want. Now, if the rumors about putting NCsoft games on Steam are true, I might buy GW1. Or FFXIV (if they slash that on Steam, but MMOs rarely ever do that).

    Why was the sale rumored to go on a month before the calendar date of "summer starts"? The sales started off as late june into july, but more recently have been early July to mid July periods. People getting all ancy when there's still over a month to go.

    I guess I should say something on topic of the sale...umm

    At least I have a job this time around. Yay!

    If the trend continues you won't be missing much. There will be good prices on older games, and the "sale" prices for the relevant interesting games will be the standard prices from other merchants.

    That's weird. Why would the Summer Sale be rumored to start this early? It usually starts in June or July doesn't it?

    You would think June/July fit it better, but who knows. I just know when I was googling May 26th was the "rumored" date on a lot of places.

    And yeah, a lot get antsy, but as usual I try to start the thread up a few weeks early in case it comes sooner than expected. Plus it's nice to start speculating what could be on sale and what people are looking for.

    I wonder if that Steam stock bonds/card market/whatever the hell the gimick was from last year will come back.

    Yeah, it was something that came from the Steam forums.

    During the winter sale I bought Ghostbusters, Don't Starve, Papers Please, The Stick of Truth, Fallout NV, Brothers, and Hitman : Absolution for about $30. I'm hoping for a similar haul for the summer sale.

    Are you talking about teams making badges to win free games? If it is, I doubt it. Last year the users just win traded and made the entire "competition" pointless.

    Thats it! And yeah, I think reddit got together and organized each team to intentionally lose in a cycle so everyone won evenly.

    I decided to just respond to this post, but GOG.com has the entire GoT first season on sale for $18 right now.

    I was hoping for something around $5, like TWD S2 was last year.

    Yes; I know that even if I worked minimum wage I could earn that game is less than an hour and a half of work and I sound picky, but really 1. I'd rather wait for the entire game to be released and get it for a discounted price then and binge play it all the way through, and 2. call me pathetic, but I'd rather buy a GW2 Legendary precursor off the AH or a HotS skin with that over an incomplete game.

    That must have been the winter sale? Because the last two episodes of Season 2 came out after the sale had ended.

    Is it really so soon? This damn guy lied to me and told me July.

    Right...."won't spend much". At the end of the summer finds out you had to take out a loan to pay for the games j/k

    I would say July, just there were rumors of earlier. Plus it never hurts to speculate and start telling your wallet it won't hurt :P

    I have money this time, so hopefully a few games will get off my wishlist. Finally.

    If I'm remember things correctly last years sale started around June 19-20 something like that. So we probably still have a few weeks to go.

    Hoping to get FM15 for a good price this summer.
