It's almost Christmas, but we're still not done buying presents. Isn't this time of year so expensive? Not to worry because Steam has started their Winter sale... extremely close to the Autumn Sale for some reason. Like, it literally hasn't even been three weeks since the Autumn Sale ended. Well, more opportunities for amazing games at incredibly low prices is never a bad thing, so it's good to take advantage of it while you can. If you want to buy a friend or family member a gift for the season for their Steam list and haven't done so yet, you've still got time.

Since this sale is very close to the Autumn Sale, I'll just copy-paste our recommendations from that sale over to this one. Almost all of the deals are exactly the same as they were during that sale, so if you didn't grab them during the Autumn Sale, you've got another chance to do so now. In honor of being the twelfth month of the year, we've got a twelfth sale to add to the mix too.

You've got until the 2nd of January to save on some great deals... before Steam decides that Martin Luther King Jr. Day also justifies a massive Steam sale and gives us yet more huge deals. Better to grab them now though.


Steam Replay

Steam also recently gave our their Steam Replay stats for every account, so if you're curious on your playing statistics, check out your Steam Replay. Feel free to share any interesting and surprising statistics you come across... and then buy and play new games before January 1st, so it's technically wrong.
