Steam Games Sale

Valve is currently running a games sale on their Steam platform with games up to 75% off their usual price. The games that are offered for a discount change regularly with some bargains being offered the whole time.

Current deals include a THQ and Lucasarts Complete Pack as well as discounts for Dragon Age: Origins, Grid, Batman: Arkham Asylum or Champions Online. The lowest discount on the current sale page is 25% for Dragon Age, the largest 75% for Grid.

The THQ Complete Pack seems to be a good bargain for users who like Relic games as it includes the complete Dawn of War I and II and Company of Heroes series. All of those games and more for less than €50.

You do not need the Steam client to look at the offers. They are also available at the Steampowered website.

Steam games on the other hand are usually very expensive, at least here in Europe. Take the Dragon Age game for example. You can purchase that for about €38 (usually €50) at Steam or – if you have a Credit Card – for €30 including shipping from Amazon.co.uk. So, not everything is a bargain but some games like Grid for €5 or the THQ Complete Pack (if you do not own half the games already) are definitely bargains.

The next batch of games is going to be displayed in less than 20 minutes. Might be worth checking out the page regularly to catch all the bargains.
