Thanks Orion! I probably will not be able to look much at Steam for a day or two due to the slow load times. I always have slow load times with them because they always have some event going on. I wish there was a way to shut off all their "live" stuff. I can hide it but it is still going on behind the scenes slowing things down for me. smile

Hi oldbroad!

Sorry to hear you have that problem. They were turning Steam's sale on so I believe that is why I was experiencing the long load times. The pages are loading fine now, at least for me they are. I take it you have done all you can on your end with the slow download speeds

I haven't gone there yet. I'm building up the suspense laugh.

Edit: I managed to get through all of the Steam home page. I hate the scroll bar but I did it and it didn't even take very long. Seems like they have less games showing there this time around. I cannot, however, get my wishlist to load! Oh well, plenty of time. I think I will check out your links now, Orion.

Oh, man, you guys, a couple years ago, I got transferred from being a computer tech to being in the finance department and it's messing with my world view. I say that because I saw the title of this thread and thought it was going to be an analysis of adventure game sales trends and how that affected the companies' viability and whether the industry was in trouble or not.

lol crazy lol

Somebody rescue me!

Anyway, thanks for letting us know what's on sale and where the bargains are! hearts

Hi ChrisMM,

This Adventure Game Sale has been running for a little over 2 years. You can filter the Steam links in that “Narrow By” column on the left. You can filter GOG links on the left. EPIC and Humble have filter settings as well depending on what link you click on. These are very nice features that can bring up a good variety of discounted games. Sounds like you have some catching up to do so if you are interested in finding a discounted game take a look at the links above and enjoy your search. Be sure to check out the FREE games. If you are a Prime member Prime Gaming is offering some nice games for free, the post above this one. Have a nice day Chris

I've spent some time on EPIC oldbroad. I just picked up Spirit Castor: A Father's Trust. This is the first chapter of the series. I think this looks good. Another is EscapeGameShow: The Timeline. Epic has a nice "games launcher" where you manage all purchases. Purchasing and installing games are a breeze. I have a few of their games. You should set up an account smile
