Steam's Latest Holiday Sale is Insanely Amazing

Either Gabe Newell has gone mad after being bitten by a rabid prostitute or Valve is really feeling really generous during these terrible economic times. It was probably those darn rabid prostitutes.

Either way, the latest holiday sale to hit digital game distribution platform, Steam, is one any PC gamer can appreciate. Literally every game seems to be discounted to some degree, except for Modern Warfare 2. But that doesn't matter, I would buy a second copy of bug-ridden Mirror's Edge at full price over a multiplayer PC game that lacks dedicated server support.

Enough of my political ranting, everyone hates Activision and everyone loves Steam (not counting Randy Pitchford). So this holiday season let's show it by spending our long-awaited seasonal allowances on games. Only good games though -- if I catch anyone trying to buy the new Wolfenstein, I'm going to ban you from the internet. Just play it safe and get GTA4 for $7.50. My copy is 80% downloaded already. Merry shopping, readers!

*UPDATE: Brave New Gamer has an awesome breakdown of what you should buy.
