Lightbulb Steam's Early Holiday, Five-Day-Long, One-Day-Only Sale!



Official Link & Countdown: http://store.steampowered.com/early-holiday

New deals everyday, for five days running enjoy! Also, comparing the AU store to the US store, we actually get the same pricing, I'm quite pleased that we didn't get shafted.

Can someone confirm that Dragon Age is 7gb download?

I'm so freaking tempted, cos it's only $40AUD with this sale >_<

I hate being on a ISP without free steam content servers >_<

From the Direct2Drive website which is a similar service to steam they quote a 7.9GB download size, which i assume will be similar to steam.

True true Saves you forgetting about it before the sale is over.

Crap I never knew the entire Dark Forces/Jedi Knight series was on Steam. Might have to get the Lucas Arts pack Would've been nice to have some Lego Star Wars action in there though

I guess it's time to collect xmas stuff from the family then!

Anyone know if you purchase a pack (namely the THQ one) if you already own some of the titles(stalker, frontlines), can you gift those to others?
