Just as you're about to overloaded with images and information about the games of the future, comes the annual Steam Summer Sale! The thing that usually ends up with you being overloaded with copies of games of the past. And as with every Steam Sale, many titles will receive substantial discounts over the sale period (June 11-21) and with much of it centered around community participation. Which this year, comes in the form of a Monster Summer Game you can play with friends.

The game, which takes the form of a click-happy co-operative monster fighting thing, will unlock more and more discounts the more people play. Which on paper, sounds like a very cool thing to do. Except for the fact that the Monster Summer Game is not actually working at the moment, due to the sheer number of people trying to play the thing. And even when it was, it was prone to bug out. Because again, Valve underestimated the millions of people willing to play the thing all at the exact same time.

But, enough about that. Onto the sales!



Kicking things off are discounts across the entire GTA, X-Com, Sinper Elite, Oddworld and Darksiders franchises. Plus discounts on recent games like the remastered edition of Homeworld, which is currently 60% off.

Check out all the deals here. And be sure to let us know if you manage to play the Monster Summer Game.
