There's steamdb.info, I guess. It's still updating.

There are currently 10,946 items in the update queue
Our update queue is currently quite high, please check back in a couple of hours.

This usually happens whenever Steam store updates, and we need some time to update it all.

If you can check through Steam, I haven't found out how.

steamdb.info still seems to handle pricing even though some bits of the site became nonfunctional after Steam API changes. Another site that I just found out about is steamprices.com. The good thing about that latter site is that it seems to have entries for all of the packages. Doing a search for GTA V, for instance, showed the base game by itself and a separate entry for the bundles of e-money shit.

The gimmick this year is basically a flash game where you use turrets to shoot aliens coming at your base. There's some sort of progression system that gets you better special abilities, and you get rewarded for playing with trading cards and a chance to snag some free games. There's a few I've never heard of, but there's also stuff like Assassin's Creed IV: The Pirate One, and 60 Seconds!

I'm finding it really annoying how you apparently can't buy bundles for other people if you already own said bundles. I want to gift a friend the Shadowrun Complete Collection, but the option to buy at all is grey out because apparently they calculate the price based on what you already own. I've found something about getting around it buy getting the link from incognito mode or whatever that I plan to try later, but it's kind of frustrating that they make this so difficult.

Too bad the reward for the games is random (out of the subset) so your chance of getting something is (probably?) low, and the chance of getting something you actually want is basically zero. For example I might play hollow knight, but there's zero chance I'll ever download the other 3 on there - I'd rather just pass and let someone else have them if I won.

Anyway I give it an hour before someone figures out how to hack the game to auto-play and runs it in 400 tabs at the same time, or some other nonsense that ruins it for everyone.

Steam is so slow I can't even go to the cart :P

Figured I would pick up
Endless Space 2 Bundle
Battlezone 2 Redux
Freeman Guerilla Warfare

Thinking about Where water tastes like wine, but think it could go lower.

Civ 6 sale is crappy.

Ah yes, the insatiable lust of corn and rice, clearly two of the most erotic foods.

It was when I checked earlier. Maybe the deal happened to end when the sale started.

He said "the next 12 hours or so" and you posted more than 12 hours after that. It was free before.

Oh, I thought it had only been 3 hours. :V

I can see how you missed it, since nobody posted for almost 12 hours after that post, so it could have looked like it was from the same day.

Starcraft 2's expansions (Zerg campaign and Protoss campaign, basically) are half off, $20.
The Terran campaign Wings of Liberty is still F2P.
(This is through Battle.net of course, not Steam)

I bought wings of liberty back when I didn't know any better, so I got Swarm for free but never played it. How bad are the last two, if I may ask?

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.
