When it comes to posting some of the best deals online, hardly no one does a better job than Steam. We can only hope your brains are somewhat functional after New Year’s Eve to partake in these massive savings.
For the next 16 or so hours, Steam is offering up to 75% off on six games such as Mass Effect, Portal and the complete first and second seasons of Sam and Max. Portal is practically a steal for $4.99 and the same thing goes for Mass Effect. We have almost a month before Mass Effect 2 comes out which is enough time to experience the majesty of the original.
In order to get a clearer idea of how much money you stand to save from this sale, consider the price of a brand new retail game at roughly $63. You can own every game Steam is offering in this sale for around that same price.
Here is the complete list of Steam’s Holiday sale for January 1, 2009.
- Sam and Max Complete – $14.99
- Devil May Cry 4 – $22.49
- Portal - $4.99
- Mass Effect – $4.99
- DOOM Pack Complete – $13.59
- RedLynx Trials 2: Second Edition – $2.49
Purchase [Steam] Read [Game Daily]
I've already bought five games, each for less than $2.
You have to watch the entire site b/c Steam is not listing all the deals as they change. For example, I bought Osmos for $1.99 a couple days ago, during the sale, and it's already back up to $4.99 (still a sale price).
And Evil Genius is still only $1.99 – definitely more than $2 worth of fun.
