Steam dropped the week long deals?

Its Valve.

2 weeks is like 2 hours in valve time

But it cannot go on for 3 weeks b/c Valve does now know that number

missing 2 weeks of maybe 60+ games on sale (most at only about 25-50% off) for instead 2 weeks of 2000+ games (most at 50%-75% off) on sale... definitely not worth it

They don't have to make weekly deals either. Nothing says they have to do it all the time. Now if it was the daily deals, that would be weird, yes.

Plus who gives a crap about the weekly deals now when they will be included in the summer sale with a higher change of being discounted even further, so you should just wait.

I've only heard of last thursday, and this thursday, as Valve sales always being on thursdays, people got paid before last week which is why most people though it would start then. It WILL start this thursday, because it was the 12th last year, which was a thursday.

if we count the amount of single characters in this reply... yep, sumer sale confirmed on 11/7... also HL3, and the real version of Diablo 3

This.

Grotesque Tactics franchise were the week long deals (and to some extend x³ aswell)

I think he meant 9(th) /(Or) 11(th).

Free weekend. :)

There was no announcement so for me it's as if there wasn't. Just some hidden deals but not the traditional weeklong deals. Also there was only for 1 or 2 games, the weeklong deals are usually for alot of games.

it was the weekend deal, not the midweek.

Pretty much this. And Summer Sale dates are never officially announced before the sale itself is actually up, it seems

THEY were wrong, and a week too early

Still works. Are you logged in? If you're not it doesn't show you any content - says it's currently not available

I'm pretty sure I've seen worse. :P

i was going to buy something on the 3rd summer sale, but then i took a Half-life 3 on the knee... and i didn't ask for that

(yes, you can kill me now)

Hmmm...didn't see that HL2 ends on Thursday at 4PM PDT. Dammit Gaben! Stop sending us mixed signals! >:(
