Upcoming Steam Halloween, Black Friday, Winter Sales Dates Leaked

It's been a while since the last Steam sale, which took place during Summer. You may have a backlog with a size as big as the depths of Mariana's Trench, but Steam knows you won't lose out on an opportunity to increase that backlog. The company's plans and surprise announcements for these annual sales, however, have been cut short by some leaks.

Namely, it was originally leaked (and since removed) by Reddit by user DarkMio that the dates for the aforementioned Steam sales are as follows: the Steam Halloween Sale is running from Thursday 26th October to Wednesday 1st November; the Steam Black Friday Sale runs through Wednesday 22nd November to Tuesday 28th; and the Steam Winter Sale will run from Thursday 21st December to Thursday 4th January 2018. These dates have, in the meantime, been independently confirmed by EuroGamer. A bummer for Steam, but this unfortunate event for the company should allow us poor consumers to better plan out our 3D entertainment budgets accordingly.

The Quim ReaperI have over 100 games on Steam and none of them are installed, such is my boredom with gaming in 2017.
TheinsanegamerNAgreed. Gaming the last few years has become stuck in the quagmire of financial greed. All the news of newer games and their shenanigans has put me off of buying new almost altogether (I did buy cuphead on GOG this year).

OTOH, my PS2 is getting quite the workout.
I felt exactly the same way as you guys! Until I got a console (yes I did it). After I got a PS4, games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Lost Legacy, Bloodborne (omg what a masterpiece), Yakuza and more recently Persona 5, shown me that I wasn´t getting old or the game industry was awful. I just wasn´t on the right platform (altho I will never stop being a PC gamer).

I think there is a big lack of Single Player epic campaign AAA games on PC right now. Most companies go either Indie route or Multiplayer based route, all is left are EA or ubisoft crappy reskinned ported garbage that no one cares about.

Anyway, how convenient that I have a job with an actual income. Not that I have much interest in games these days, but there are a few things I'm actually interested in...

Tsukiyomi91< has over 30 Steam games
< Hardly have time to install them or play them
< only plays Warframe.
Sigh. I have the same issue.

The game is absolute crap. There isn't enough planning to keep the community afloat, so it becomes a run between content nuggets. So many of the features are half baked at best, despite being into year 6 of development.

This being said, those content nuggets are tasty and 1000% of your daily grind. It's got a reasonably fair economy, and you don't have to be absolutely amazing to get into the game.


Curse you Kavats, mutagen samples, and RNG loot (60+ missions and 1 Gara piece, not to mention 20+ missions and no Harrow systems but 43 Harrow Chassis).
