Posted on Sunday, July 8 @ 15:51:44 Eastern by Jonathan_Leack

Every year Valve throws a Steam Summer Sale which is known for having some of the best prices in gaming, and destroying the bank accounts of men, women, and children.

The CDR Database, which captures changes and additions made to the Steam service, has finally caught some of the contents of this year's Steam Summer Sale, and it's full of games ranging from the unheard of to best of the best.

    Rats. I might have to buy that Bethesda pack, just to own those games for PC. I wanted to wait for a Skyrim GotY edition, but if that collection is priced right, I'll just have to either suck it up and buy the DLC as it's released, or convince myself that I don't need it.

    Do they have all the old C&C games on Steam? I know EA had them as a free download at one point, but I would honestly prefer to pay money to get them on my account.

    I'm not really a fan of bundle packs. I almost always have at least one of the games, if not more, so it feels like like less of a value to me. I'm really only interested in the silly deals that they'll have on single games.

    Railworks 3 Summer Sale collection: Buy the game and all the DLC for $700. That's more than 30% off!

    I really wish I was joking when typing that math.

    I was hoping for a Mass Effect sale. Haven't played any of them, and attempting to not touch Origins.
