So, today is the last day of Steam's semi-annual sale.

Today is all repeat deals: Portal 2 for 50% off, Borderlands for 75% off, Fallout New Vegas for 70% off, GTA4 Complete for $10, AssBro As The Kids Are Calling It These Days for 50% off.

The sales will probably be this good again in December. Until then, no, you're NOT going to see these games for this cheap, and they really are excellent games.

If I actually download all the things I bought off Steam, I'll end up paying more in bandwidth fees than I did for the actual games. I have to wait until my limit resets at the end of the month before I can get GTA4.

I can't tell if this speaks more to the success of the summer sale, or the avarice of my ISP.

Why not both?

(I actually have to delete things before I'll have room for the Total War pack that Kevin bought me. It's *40 GB*.)

I'd probably be running into that problem if the sale lasted much longer.

Disturbing thought: it would be far cheaper, by an order of magnitude, if I could convince Valve to burn the data to a CD and mail it to me. Possibly also faster if done from within Ontario.
