Winter sales are starting; any games you guys are hoping to grab?

[Sowerbot]

I for one am going to rob GOG blind and grab whatever free games Epic puts out this year. I'm operating on a budget, so I doubt I'll be able to grab much from Steam; but I'm cool with grabbing the retro stuff from GOG. Maybe Epic will even offer up some good stuff with their whole "free-game-a-day" thing. Already bought the Blade Runner game from Westwood, and I'm thinking the Deus Ex series (minus Invisible War) will be next.

Anyone have any games they hope will be on sale so they can finally play them?

I predict the free game coming available in under 6 hours will be a goodie!

Not really. I'm cutting way back on buying due to the size of my TBP pile and shortage of spare cash. The few new ones I want are all this year releases, so unlikely they'll come down enough to be an offer I can't refuse:
Far Cry 6
Age of Empires 4
Humankind

But of course I'll still scan my wishlist on-sale emails.

I probably won't get in on this one. I don't really have anything I'm wanting, and we're kind of focused on paying off debt and getting ahead in our finances for other purposes. I'm not the only old dude on here, so you guys know about life priorities...

My priorities this year are going to be things like getting a new shed and some new flooring and carpet. Plus, I have a huge backlog, so it's not like I'm ever going to be without games.

My priorities … new flooring and carpet

Well if you got your priorities straight, you'd stay in your chair gaming. Then you wouldn't wear out the flooring & carpet!

Just bought Encased on Epic for under $10. Unfortunately, I then crashed the Epic launcher, and it won't install the game.

How long does the Steam winter sale last? I was thinking it should go beyond Christmas day so people can spend their Christmas money.
