Key

I'm always looking forward to the seasonal sales for Steam, because my wish list throughout the year just tends to get longer and longer as time goes on. Sometimes i'll splurge and pay full price for a game if i'm interested enough in it, but sometimes it's always nice to get that notification that reads "a game on your wish list is currently on sale", and I instantly go and buy it. The summer sale for this year is no exception. I can't even begin to tell you how many games I bought, well....I mean, I could, because i'm going to talk about it. The summer sale this year be it not great towards the end, was definitely one that I enjoyed quite a bit when it started. A lot and I mean a lot of games were going on sale through the time this sale was going on, and a lot of my favorite games were on the sale. So, i'll just mention a few that I got and am happy to have got:


Fallout 3

I wasn't too surprised to see that this went on sale almost as soon as the Fallout 4 news came to light. This game wasn't necessarily part of the summer sale, but i'm including it because it was put on sale a few days before the sale started, and I picked it up, so whatever. It works. I haven't played too much of it since I got it, but I plan to go back to it eventually.


Oblivion

I've always been very curious about Oblivion, because a lot of people say they prefer this over Skyrim, which I can fully understand due to the insane amount of hours most people have put into this one. I however have put in a total of 7 minutes, due to me buying it on the sale and never touching it again. It's not necessarily a bad game, I just haven't been in the right mood to play it. It's nothing to do with the graphics or anything like that, I just have to be in a certain mood for it. Happy to have picked it up though, as I know i'll have fun with it.


Braid

This game is ****ing awesome, and i've been interested in it ever since I saw a Youtuber playthrough it. The concept is unique, the graphics and artwork are fantastic, and it's been a game i've wanted for a while. It was an instant buy when I saw it go on sale.


Dishonored

So, i've already beat this game about 2 times, both being different styles of play, and i'm still loving it. By far one of the best games I found through the summer sale, and there has not been a day where I haven't expressed my excitement about this game. The graphics are top notch, the fact that you can play through the game multiple times in different ways are just awesome, and the story is really really well written. The voice acting is great, and it's just an all around fun game. I've already put 15 hours into it, but I got a little burned out due to playing it all the time. I plan to 100% this one because I want to be fully prepared for when Dishonored 2 came out. A hidden gem for me, but certainly one that has caught the eyes of many people, and now I see why.
