'Tis the Season for Sales....

[Masakari]

...and there are plenty of good ones!

Steam's got a "Give and Get" Sale where bulk packs of games seem to be the theme. Games updating daily, and they've got a contest where 30 people a day are winning games from their wishlists.

Even more interestingly, Direct2Drive is doing a huge promotion until the end of the year where one in every five orders placed on the site (Not just yours, but everyones) is free. Odds pretty good there, and it'll be enough for me to take a look at their catalog and see if there are any games it has that Steam doesn't and pick them up *coughNeedforSpeedcough*

Also, some other sites to check out. I haven't used any of these but I guess they're just like any other.

So it seems that all the valve package deals have been leaked. I have not been able to find a real source so the accuracy may be pretty bad.

No word on the individual sale games, but the past few seem to have included two from the packs too. This assumes Valve don't decide any last minute changes.

Will update if I can find a better source. So far the post have been accurate.
