Steam summer sale looks set for June 23rd

Something tells me Valve does it on purpose. In any case, http://whenisthenextsteamsale.com/ [External Link] was estimating the exact same date, so I don't think this comes as a biiiiig surprise. :)

"Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

I have ~70 games on my steam & gog wishlists combined; I'm hoping to get one or two when the discounts begin. I wonder how low Superhot and Broforce will go for; since my budget is pretty miniscule.

Hmm, let me think. I have over 160 game on my Steam wishlist, I better clean it. :-P My mid-end laptop will arrive tomorrow and I will probably play the games that are already in my Steam account.

I was looking for Borderlands series but it turned out that those are DLC hell, I opted out... :-) Keep in mind, if you are looking Borderlands 2, GameAgent is one of the few stores which sells "complete" bundle of the game.

Let's take a look at the top 5 of my wishlist, then:
1. Tomb Raider - will buy at even a moderate deal - assuming performance stabilises by then.
2. Stellaris - might wanna hold off, as EU4 has sucked up too much of my time.
3. The Long Dark - it's still in Early Access though, so I don't know. Anyone know how well this runs now on Linux?
4. EU4: Conquest of Paradise DLC - Yeah I won't be able to hold off if they post a deal on this.
5. Trine 3 - Although the mixed reviews on Steam and the apparent short duration has me worried.
Wildcard: Dreamfall Chapters.

I've already got Shadowrun: Hong Kong on GOG, but I just might get it on Steam as well. Final Fantasy V, VI and X/X2 HD Remaster have been on my wishlist since I discovered them in the store. And more Dark Souls just because Dark Souls.

Well the great majority of my wishlist is composed of "windows-only" titles and of the linux-titles, most that I actually desire are games that are not yet released or not yet ported.

So that leaves me with a bunch of "maybe" titles that I don't have much real desire for but may be willing to give a try if the price is right:

Sword Coast Legends
After Reset RPG
Renowned Explorers: International Society
The Detail
Sheltered
Savage Lands
ADOM (Ancient Domains of Mystery)
Broforce
Layers of Fear
Dungeon Rushers

...are a few examples.

Stellaris for me...$40 is a bit rich for my limited income.

Maybe Tomb Raider, but I still got much to play. And I resolved to not build a big stack again.

XCom 2 awaits it's first completion, and I wonder how long will Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Divinity: Original Sin will take. Didn't even start them yet...

So many Linux games, so little time!

I decided I'd finish XCOM before I bought XCOM 2, then I just never seem to get around to playing it. If XCOM 2 is in the sale I'll get it.

I need to buy a week off just to get around to playing what I already have! Damn you steam! :P
