Steam 2011 Holiday Sale

Postby Blink on Mon Dec 19, 2011 11:48 pm

Ah, the yearly Steam sale. It's hard not to pick up at least a few games. This year it seems as though there is a bit of a twist, with challenges to complete!

The Steam Holiday Sale is on now through Sunday, January 1, 2012. In addition to huge savings throughout the store, the 2011 sale features two special promotions that allow you to win like never before.

The Great Gift Pile challenges gamers to complete up to six objectives each day. Completion of each objective grants the chance to win a free game or discount coupons for select games available on Steam. If you don't win, no worries, you'll be given a piece of coal. But hold onto that coal!

Why?

Coal is the ticket to enter the Epic Holiday Giveaway. It's called Epic because the top prize is every game on Steam. The more coal you have, the better your chance of winning. Players may alternatively choose to magically mix their coal into something shiny and new by "crafting" seven pieces into a gift from the Great Gift Pile. So this year receiving coal is a good thing.

Didn't get what you want? Of course Steam allows you to trade coal and prizes with your friends.

Amazing I am so going to get something epic. Like Fable 3 or something. Maybe even the complete Hl1 franchise.

Oh and btw I would be happy to trade any prized I get for coal. So hmu my steam name is LiamFarley1998. EDIT I would also easily trade tf2 items for either presents or coal, not a massive fan of tf2, same goes for prtl2 (no need for custom stuff).

Max Payne 2, it's surprisingly good and in some ways better than the first.
