The best-selling Steam games this past week

23 August 2016
Just Cause 3

If you are anything like us, Steam’s statistics act as a constant source of education.

While the internet goes nuts about how broken and boring No Man’s Sky is or wax lyrical about not pre-ordering a game, there it will be right in the top ten list.

It also proves just how strong even the smallest of Steam sales can be, as a year-old game can rocket up the charts due to a steep discount.

Check out the best selling Steam games from the past week (14 June-21 June):

    Just cause is not R249, That is probably the Expansion pack but then you need the base game to play it. So you will need to pay like R499 for the Game. The expansion is also priced on Steam for R269. Where did you guys get your pricing from ?

    For anyone that wanted to know! Please link me to the Just cause 3 XL base game that costs R249
