STEAM SUMMER SALE 2011 - When does it begin?

[Amnesiac1]

See thread title.

Hoping to get Left 4 Dead 2 for real cheap.

Looks amazing.

Thanks!

L4D 2 was only $6 the other day. SOoooo, does this mean it already has begun?

I gave up on L4D due to team kills and annoying people that joins game with full health, runs ahead, takes all health and ammo and left you to die.

There's basically a sale every month, if not more often.

L4D2 was recently on sale for 50% off (maybe 75%).

My guess would be somewhere in the summer.

Oh and pick up the first game instead. Much better atmosphere/pacing.

Hm.

Next week would be a good guess. Last 2 years it's been the last week in June.

I thought it was near august? Guess not?

Last year it took place whilst I was on holiday in July (you've no idea how bad internet connections are on desert islands near Africa).

Last two years was June 24 (second-to-last Thursday in June in 2010, Wed. in 2009) to July 4.

So, if they keep to the same schedule, today or tomorrow should be the day.

If you are PC Steaming it, if you have been hankering to play Vampire, The Masquerade by Troika, this weekend it's $4.99, a steal!

even summer camp sale was over. batman AA was only $7.50 two days ago (75% midweek madness). so technically, Steam has discounted almost year around.

Steam has sales all the time on random stuff. I normaly just open Steam every few days to see if anything good is on sale.

There's a daily sale, a weekend and midweek sale, random sale events all the time on Steam. But the Summer and Winter Sales have 80% of the library discounted.
