    What are everyone's dream sale games? I'm hoping for the Prince of Persia franchise, Beyond Good and Evil, and maybe Pac-Man CEDX.

    Thanks for the list. Man, those Assassin's Creed games really need to drop in price. I've only ever played Black Flag and I love it, want the others. I hope the steam sale brings those down.

    As to the question I asked earlier, I found a boys and girls center called Hope, a place for at risk and in transition kids to donate my ps3 and WiiU to since hospitals won't take them. Yay!

    I don't have a ton of time to play blockbuster story driven epic games right now - so probably Typing of the Dead, Stanley Parable or Kerbals - and Starbound to grab for the kid.

    I think I'm actually looking mostly for pinball tables. I'm sure other things will look too good to pass up, but that's what jumps out at me.

    Yeah, I'm definitely hoping for Stanley Parable too, and maybe Mercenary Kings? Or Monaco? Bunny Must Die?

    So I never saw an answer (sorry if I missed it). How is Max Payne 3? I couldn't get into the first 2 because I'm a controller FPS guy. Will 3 catch me up on story and be fun with a 360 pad?

    Great Child's Play drive, Everyone! You all are amazing. :)

    Winter Sale: Stick to the flowchart, make sure your wishlist is up to date (also, have a wishlist), link your Steam profile, put your PA name in your Steam profile if different, go light on the thread posts around sale turnover time, keep in mind that giveaways and in-thread contests will not get as much visibility when the thread is moving at sale speed, keep an eye on third party sales like Amazon and GMG, say thanks with an @ callout if you get a gift, stay calm and have fun.

    Godspeed.

    EDIT: This is the flowchart, although there is a more modern version with more sophisticated flash sale logic somewhere...

    I already picked up what I wanted during the Thanksgiving Sale (BF4 and FC3) but if Assassin's Creed 3 or Tomb Raider get super cheap I may pick those up. Otherwise I am not looking got anything significant.

    I'm terrified of this sale, it's the first one in a long time I don't have much of a budget for, and it feels like there have been so many little indie games like Risk of Rain that I really want to pick up but man. Them cashmoneydollars. :(

    EDIT: related to absolutely nothing, my daughter put my son in a skirt, and he fell asleep in his eating chair and it's funnier than it should be watching a pink-skirt wearing boy doing the headbob of sleep. :lol:

    I believe Tomb Raider is $7.99 on Amazon right now, but will go to $4.99 on 12\24. YOU NEED TO USE THIS INFORMATION.

    I'm paying mine off this afternoon. It's not on Steam, but it should be. Scary to know that in a few hours I'm writing a check bigger than the limit on my credit card, but the extra money every month is going to be amazing. And maybe, just maybe, if I play my cards right I can turn some of it into more Steam games.

    @jclast, I think if it goes on sale you should really get it. 30GB download, so beware. REALLY fun cover shootum with terribly depressing story, lots and lots of fun. It goes into some backstory, but all you really need to know is that Max has led a hard whiskey and painkiller filled life after his wife and kid were killed. I guess spoilers for the first 30 seconds of the original game.

    Crafting snowglobes gets you items in certain F2P games. Foil gets you five. Specifically:

    DOTA2
    Path of Exile
    Ragnarok II
    Realm of the Mad God
    Spiral Knights
    Star Conflict
    Stronghold Kingdoms
    TF2
    War Thunder
    Warframe

    Snowglobe games revealed (so each of these will likely get a dedicated sale day)...

    Holy crap that's a lot of GB. If I buy it I'll have to wait until I finish some other games to download it. Thanks!

    So the winter cards disappear after the sale. No hording or buying after the fact for dirt cheap like the summer sale.
