Steam Autumn Sale Begins, Steam Awards new for 2016.

Valve have, in that way they do every year about this time, kicked off a new Steam Autumn sale.

The sale currently includes -at time of print- 13’146 items on sale, however the total number is likely to fluctuate as the sale goes on, right up until its end point of November 29th 10AM (Pacific).

Current favourites include GTA V, Hitman (2016) Complete First Season, and  Deus Ex: Mankind Divided for £19.99 each, Doom and Fallout 4 for £13.19 each and  Civ V Complete for £0.66p.

Or, if you’re looking for some more wildcard suggestions, why not try out Death Road to Canada for £8.24, The Swindle for £5.99, or Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor for £5.24?

New to Steam also comes the Steam Awards, [details here] a chance for players to vote for games that fit into 8 selected categories (as well as supply their own). Current categories for 2016 include ‘The ‘Game Within A Game’ Award,” and the ‘”Just 5 More Minutes”‘ award.

It’s certainly an interesting idea, and it will be interesting to see what Valve do with the winners; their platform has been trying out a mass of user-curation and other user-empowering techniques over the last few years -notably curators, greenlight, reviews- and so many eyes will be on Valve to see how they celebrate the winners.
