It’s that time of the year again – the time when PC gamers go on spending sprees they often regret later, loading up on discounted games at rates they think they can’t pass up. To take advantage of the Steam Winter 2015 sale all gamers need is a Steam account and a Mac, Windows PC or Linux to play their new games on. Whatever is posted for sale on the first day will have the same price until the Winter Sale period ends.
