    Starting today, Valve is offering ten free games to ten Steam account holders every day until the holidays are over. All gamers needs are at least ten games in their Wishlist.

    Zoom

    'Tis the season to be jolly, and what better way to get all jollied up than to receive ten free games from Valve. Thursday the company announced that its Daily Wishlist Giveaway is officially underway on Steam, and will continue on into the holiday season.

    To enter, PC gamers must have a Steam account and a Wishlist with at least ten games. Valve customers will also need to visit the game page of the featured daily deal every day, starting with Terraria at 75-percent off. Valve promises to grant ten people with the top ten games on their Wishlist for free each day.

    For those who typically don't load up the Wishlist with hopeful purchases, this is a good chance to score a number of newly-released titles like Serious Sam 3, Saints Row: The Third, Batman: Arkham City, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Assassin's Creed Revelations, RAGE, Modern Warfare 3, LOTR: War in the North, Trine 2 and Sonic Generations.

    how do you add games to a wish list?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Go to a game in Steam and on the right beside the buy button is the Add to Wishlist button.

    My account proved you wrong.
    I own it on disc, but never played or installed it so maybe I have disproved nothing.


    They do these pretty often, does anyone know of anyone who's actually won?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,848 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    I think someone on here said they got it last year


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    I won 5 games in the November draw last year, was a nice suprise. The my brother goes and wins it days later :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,924 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey

    Yeah, got one at around 2 in the morning for it. Also had one of the Steam Customer peoples name on it, rather than Steam as the source. No fanfare on your account or anything, games just pop up into your games list.

    *crosses fingers*

    Come on....daddy needs a copy of Skyrim :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,924 ✭✭✭✭RolandIRL


    If only you could stick something like the Valve complete pack on your wishlist...:pac:

    Bastion today. Looks like it might not be a bad game. Good reviews anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭Krusader


    Homefront today €4.99 also Killing Floor F2P for the weekend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,063 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    Is Homefront worth getting? According to the IGN review the multiplayer is pretty good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭Krusader

    thinking of getting it myself, would there be much of a multiplayer community playing it still


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,077 ✭✭✭Glebee

    I enjoyed it. Single player game was a bit weak but ok I thought. Multi player was solid but have not played in a while. Worth €4.99 in my opinion.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf

    I've never really played any of the left for dead games. Is there a single player campaign or are they all multi player maps?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,924 ✭✭✭✭RolandIRL


    COD:MW2 - 50% off it and DLCs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,924 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Crap again so...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,680 ✭✭✭Nollog


    Crap again so...

    50% is a lot for activision.
    They rarely give over 25% off on steam because they love the smell of money.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,924 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Well even so I doubt there are many people interested in mw2... Or don't have it.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,885 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    7.49 for Force Unleashed 2. They can take their 7.49 shove it up their arse and **** off.
