Is the winter sale better than the sales happening right now? There are some games that I’m eyeing but I don’t know if it makes sense to wait to get them now. For example the devil may cry HD edition of the ps1/ps2 era.

You can check with steamdb for the past sales:

Here it says the discount is always the same for the past year, so you can expect the price for this sales will be the same as the next. Though for some game they will have discount for one sales but not the other, and some only join in for the big 4 season sales. If the price is right for now, just get it.

Not usually. Most games have a regular price, and a sale price. That sale price is the same every sale now that flash deals are gone.

But nobody can truly predict the future.

If you're patient, many games' sale prices slowly get bigger over time.
