Cheap Portal 2, Orcs Must Die! in Steam's 'Autumn Sale'

by David Hinkle on Nov 23rd 2011 2:40PM

Starting today and continuing through November 27, Valve will offer daily discounts and deals on many, many titles in honor of the holiday. Such is the plight of the Steam user.

Kicking off the sale today are a myriad of games including recent releases Orcs Must Die!, Portal 2 and, uh, Duke Nukem Forever. There are even a few games under $4, and one is actually a bunch of games together: The Oddboxx. Yet another highlight is the Sam & Max Collection, a bundle of the first three seasons ending with the The Devil's Playhouse, for $12.49.

Valve will be switching up what's on sale every day, so ... be careful.

Money, money everywhere!

Valve

@Pipera

Not according to the Jackass from I am alive.........

Awesome. My unemployed friend has been unable to play Portal 2, and this gives me the perfect excuse to gift it to him.

@Marshillboy
Me thinks ur friend should play less games and apply for more jobs.

I wish Valve sold games on consoles through Steam. That would make me happy.

@Squawk Not sure why you were down voted for wishing steam sold games on consoles, even though the likelihood of it happening is maddeningly slim I still agree that it would be cool.

@DAmwake Maybe he got downvoted because he is just stupidly assuming that the person is not actively looking for jobs even though he may be in this rough economic climate and plays games to pass the time.

@nerdydesi1
No, no, no. It's common knowledge that EVERYONE who is unemployed isn't looking for a job. Haven't you heard?

Also, poor people are poor because they're lazy and if your children are starving, it's ALWAYS your fault!

Nice try Steam, I'm not falling for it. I'm waiting for the holiday sale when you sell games for $1

@Uncommon
Anything that's 75%+ is a safe bet.

*shudder*

*close Steam*

Elder Scrolls III and IV are also on sale, if anyone who only played Skyrim wants to play the rest of the series (Arena and Daggerfall *1 and 2* are both free on Bethesda's website).

I'd wait though because they might have it even cheaper as the deal of the day one of these days, so I'd just wait until the 27th to buy them.

@VanillaNowah ah didn't see you posted this! Yeah I am definitely going to try and pick up Morrowind!

@VanillaNowah Oblivion was much cheaper a while back, but it's still worth it's new sale price.

Has Steam done a Thanksgiving sale before? I only remember Winter Holiday and Summer sales.

@Dizazter I think last year was the first, and it was called the Give and Get sale.

@Dizazter

Yes. They do these every year.

The big ultra major ones are the Summer and Winter sales.

But there are always Autumn and Spring sales as well. Pretty big as well.

@Dizazter

Yup.

@radioactivez0r

Actually that does sound vaguely familiar now.

Cthulul Saves the World/Breath of Death is $1.

Dammit....I was hoping I could get away with Orcs Must Die (and the Lost Adventures DLC) and today would be a cheap(er) day. In for the bundle; that's just a ridiculous price. I generally wait for daily deals and then scoop up the rest on the last day, but there's no way in hell that's gonna be a DD when it's already 67% off and ridiculously cheap enough as it is. XD

Thanks for the heads up!

HEADS UP SKYRIM FANS! Both Oblivion and Morrowind GOTY are on sale for 10$ a piece too!

Definitely picking up Orcs Must Die at this price.

If by some odd situation you haven't bought Portal 2 yet. Please do so right now.

If you don't own Duke Nukem Forever - buy it on sale on Steam. The PC version was by far the best. Load times were fast and graphics were better than the console versions. Plus there have been some other updates since release that addressed a number of the "critics" concerns (at least the "technical" concerns).

Ignore the haters - Duke Nukem Forever is worth playing, especially if you're a fan of Duke Nukem 3D.

@Axcalibur

I bought it a while back (it was actually only $5 when I bought it) and I agree. It's definitely not GotY material, but if you're looking for something fun that you won't take too seriously it's a decent game. Especially if you really liked Duke Nukem 3D.

I'm thinking about picking up the Sam & Max bundle even though I already have the Devil's Playhouse for PS3 (it was free with PS+). Anybody played through Season 1 & 2 and think they're worth it for $12.49?

@Ospov
They're good. Season 1 isn't quite up to par with the rest, but Season 2 is about as good (most episodes are good, one or two not as good) as Season 3.

@KirbyCommando

Now is Season 3 and The Devil's Playhouse the same thing? Because looking on Steam they only have Season 1, 2, and DP. I'm kinda new to Sam & Max so I don't really know how the series progresses. I know there's supposed to be a new one coming out before too long and I'm looking forward to that one.

@Ospov
Season 3 is DP.

Bought AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAa!!! For The Awesome, Duke Nukem Forever, Freedom Force, Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich and Orcs Must Die! (including it's DLC) for a little over 20 euro's.

Damn you Valve! I think I need a second life to finish all the games I bought during your sales.

Yes! I can buy the entire Sam & Max collection for 2 bucks again!

GODDAMMIT.
I have way too many games. I don't need any more. I'm getting broke; because I think I'm saving money. I do need to get around to playing Mass Effect, though... and all them Oddworld games...
Valve, you are devilishly clever. I hereby give you $20 to do with as you wish.
