Sadly, I don't think the Steam sales warrant that "MEGA" descriptor anymore. They've been recycling (mostly) the same sale prices for years now and they don't even bother with events anymore. They're a pale shadow of what they used to be.

Steam basically outsourced discounts to key resellers, so you basically have a sale for games all year. I rarely find a game cheaper on Steam, mostly only games that do not give out cheap keys. DLC however is often cheaper on Steam.

I have no idea what to do to get this. Past badges have been straightforward. My favorite one was with the Saliens.

@TurdFerguson87 - Right now I think you can only get them by completing other badges. When the sale officially starts, as usual you'll earn one card for every $10 spent, one card per day for completing the Discovery Queue, and one card for

...each other game badge you craft. (And, yeah, the Saliens event was awesome.)

Oh THAT boring stuff. The discovery queue thing didn't work for me, even though the OP implied it already started now (and I saw another post about it earlier).

@TurdFerguson87 it DID start, just not the discovery queue thing, you can get them now by crafting badges, instead of dropping the usual coupons, you get the cards instead.
