It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Valve just kicked off their latest mega-sale a mere hour ago now. That's right, the Steam Autumn Sale is now live. This year's sale runs from now (obviously) through December 3 at 10AM (PT).

During the sale, there will be over 13,000 titles available at reduced cost. This includes games, DLC, and probably even bundles that include things like bonus soundtracks. Don't just take my word for it. You can head on over to the main Steam page to see all of the sale items for yourself. Don't see something on the main page? Search for it and you may find that it's on sale.

Hey, don't like saving money on games? You can still hit up Steam and nominate your favorite games of the year. That's right, The Steam Awards are back for another year. Nominations are open for the duration of the Steam Autumn Sale. There are eight categories in which you can suggest your favorite games.

Voting on the awards will open in December. The winners will be announced on New Year's Eve.
