Valve's Steam Holiday Sale is Now Live
Steam has opened the doors to its year-end holiday sale, offering steep discounts on numerous PC, Mac and Linux titles.
Valve has launched its beloved yearly Steam Holiday Sale where many titles will be crazy cheap until after the New Year. As always, there will be huge savings throughout the store, with daily deals, flash sales, and catalog discounts. Additionally, every twelve hours there will be a chance for gamers to vote on a select game to go on sale.
"This year, we've taken some of the guesswork out of when your favorite games will be on sale," Valve said on Thursday. "You may now organize your Steam Wishlist and be notified via Steam Mobile and/or email when a game from the list goes on sale as a Daily Deal. The Steam Mobile App is available for both iOS and Android."
For starters, Thursday's Daily Deal includes Mirror's Edge for $4.99 (was $19.99), the Hitman franchise for 50- to 75-percent off each, the Borderlands franchise for 50- to 75-percent off each, the Prince of Persia franchise for 75-percent off each, Scribblenauts Unlimited for $19.99 (was $29.99) and Wargame: European Escalation for $9.99 (was $39.99).
More specifically, those looking to purchase Borderlands 2 will get 50-percent off the original price, paying $29.99 (the 4-pack is $89.99 in case you're in a giving mood). Hitman: Absolution Professional Edition is $29.99 (was $59.99), and the Prince of Persia Complete Pack featuring five games costs a mere $12.24 (was $48.99).

Steam is also putting SS3 and KF on sale (both are already available on Steam Linux). Probably the best year for my Linux gaming needs thus far
Sales directly from steam isnt that great anymore
Take Amazon as example it has constantly beating steam alot the time.
Yup I just bought that a few hours ago, nothing like buying games and donating to charity all at once. Last time did it for a few THQ games, now I did this one mainly for dungeon defenders and DLC.
I am saying overall u get better deal elsewhere "MOST" of the time. Infact 70% of the title in my steam library are not from steam directly. Half of that 70% are from Amazon + greenmangaming
