Didn't get anything on the first day.  Not too much I wanted, or already had.

Complete X-com for 16.49. I thought about Day Z, but its an MMO and i really never enjoyed them in the end. The idea is stellar, its just that it involves playing with human beings which exemplify the saying "everyone's an asshole."

My wish list:

Dead State
Wasteland 2
Endless Legend
Godus
Arcane Worlds
The Forest
Murdered: Soul Suspect
DayZ(if it becomes much cheaper than 15% off)

What is the benefit of steam wallet besides an extra minute taken out of purchasing games/dlc/etc.?

weird stuff, early access stuff on sale. not just the odd 1 or 2 either

gift cards? that steam market stuff?

Right, but you don't gain interest on that correct? No one else can use it. What's the difference of just buying the game you want without using the steam wallet? Same price  and so forth. Not as an argument against steam wallet, just curious if I am correct.

It might be a tool for him to help plan the budget for his game purchases. There is also the possibility that he purchased any of the myriad "Steam gift cards" for a better than dollar per dollar ratio.

Wasteland 2 is on sale for 33% off...early access. So its now down to $40, for early access. Disappointment. : / I believe its going to be 30 bucks when it comes out. I'll buy it then. Alas.

You get steam dollars when you sell steam cards, so there's that. (e.g. you may have 2-3$ in your wallet which isn't enough for a whole purchase but why not use it?)

The Skyrim sale is funny, you're kinda screwed if you only need 1 DLC. Guess dragonborn has to wait. Wonder why they didn't make the DLCs 75% off

Everytime i see age of empires 2 HD on sale i am tempted by it, but i have yet to do so. 

I picked up Assassin's Creed IV for $20.  Been wanting it for PC, and that wasn't too bad.

Right now they have Banished and Papers, Please in the flash sales.  Both are great games.

While it comes across as just the DLC content for sale here it is actually the game plus the DLC for half the price of what steam has them for.

I would pick it up for that price, but Amazon doesn't accept PayPal, isn't available in my country, and credit cards aren't the norm here. So i'm out of luck, unless you want to set up some sort of trade.   

Go vote now!: Warlock II, Dominions 4, and LE:FH are in one block. Well and Civ5, but who cares about that.

This voting system is depressing. The rpg bundle lost, Age of Wonders III for $20 lost, and now this 4x bundle will probably lose as well.
