Steam Summer Sale 2025 Ah yes, yet another Steam Sale where I don't really need more games. Will I still splurge and stock up my backlog? Of course I will! As is tradition. It's actually Winter here in Australia so 'Summer' sale doesn't have quite the same ring to it. Winter is pretty cold and dreary at the moment, so the sale definitely hits at a good time for gaming and there are plenty of deals to be had.

Yet another Steam Sale. Will I splurge and stock up my backlog? Of course!
