The third day of Valve's Steam Holiday Sale has just kicked off with discounts on some interesting games for various tastes. Strategy genre fans, as well as sports and first-person shooter fans, will be pleased to know that some of the titles on sale today may be to their liking.

Let's start with Europa Universalis IV, one of the best strategy games released in the last couple of years. The folks over at Paradox Development Studio have proved that the strategy genre is far from dead, and the popularity of Europa Universalis IV among PC gamers confirms it.

The game is now up for grabs on Steam for only €9.99 ($9.99), which is a 75% discount over the original price. If strategy games are your thing, Europa Universalis IV is a must-buy.

Next in line is another masterpiece, but from another genre. Ukrainian developer 4A Games launched Metro 2033, and soon afterwards the game became a hit. Fast forward four years and the game was re-released with the latest iteration of the 4A Engine.

Metro 2033 Redux is a must-buy even for those who already own the original. The game is available for half the price, so you'll only have to pay €9.99 ($9.99) to get it.

The good news for sports games fans is that now NBA 2K15 is also on sale at Steam , but the bad news is that the game has only received a 33% discount. This means that those who want to add it to their libraries will have to come up with €33.49 ($33.49).

Day 3 of Steam Holiday Sale has another strategy game discounted, Rise of Nations Extended Edition, but this one was released back in 2003. If you want this classic real-time strategy game, you can get it in the next 48 hours for only €4.99 ($4.99).
