What do you do when you win a giveaway for a game you do not own but says duplicate? Does that mean the code is already used?

I ask because I won Shantae: Risky's Revenge: Director's Cut! which I do not own and it pops up saying duplicate code.

already used

Quick question:
I have a laptop with these specs
CPU: Intel Core i5-4200U @1.60GHz
RAM: 8 GB
GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4400

What kind of games can I play on that, and more specifically, is there any chance this thing will run the Neptunia games?

I have got a laptop with intel hd 3000 have been able to play most games with at least lowest settings when the requirements were met, yours being a bit better with DirectX 11.1, OpenCL 1.2 and OpenGL 4.0 support most games on steam will run on intel hd graphics 4400 .

Note that the games will run but dont expect playable framerates on heavy games like gta 5 or mgs 5.

Neptunia games should be playable at least looking at their requirements , they do specify have a dedicated gfx as a minimum though.

most anticipated dayz update since early access launch

[zkylon]

I remember trying to play it once but I ended up dropping it after about 20 minutes. Maybe I should try to get back on it since I'm in the mood for some horror games.

it's not perfect but it's got a great atmosphere

Spaera

Looks like some sort of super puzzle fighter 2 turbo to me. Supposed to have online multiplayer too.

Tower of Samsara

Pixel art platformer. It looks pretty nice.

One Night Stand

After a night out on the town and one too many drinks, you wake up with a hangover, some hazy memories and a total stranger lying naked beside you.

In One Night Stand, you’re thrust into a “morning after” scenario where your actions affect the outcome.

I have nothing to add other than the quoted.

DropCore

Dropcore is a unique blend of rts/rpg and top down shooter that provides unparalleled gameplay experience.

I have nothing unparalleled to say about this one either.

The ep for Don't Kill Her isn't bad at all.

Maybe it's a good thing that I don't bother with much besides the Steam thread these days.

Overwatch is cool but I can't buy it right now :c

Steam thread, right now:

 

[Vazra]

I'm sleepy so my brain didnt processed everything like it should. Contact other mods and try to get that sorted out. That's not right and more if you haven't done anything really.

overwatch is still great, loves

it's got this lady

she's really fun

 

[AHA-Lambda]

There. Are already 2 8s in the UC4 thread

DESPAIR

 

[Tellaerin]

I don't know why outlets even bother with a ten point scale when they only bother using 7-10. They might as well just go with three "scores": Good, Bad, or Mediocre. That's all anybody cares about anyway. (If you really want to get fancy, you can add "Great", for the games that are better than Good.) So four rankings, tops.

I'm concerned that mods might ruin the fun by forcing people to behave reasonably and banning the ones who don't

I'd go with Worth it and Not Worth it.

Quill gives great detail on the game mechanics, yeah. But Scott Manley's videos have all the style.. he chose the space foxes.

 

[MANUELF]

Is there an option to check if my computer can run a game? I dont see it

That's why letter grades are the way to go: A, B, C, D, and then you get to have + and - for emphasis.

It's called Steam Refunds.

There's CYRI, which cross-references your PC against the minimum/recommended requirements of various games.

 

[Rhaknar]

why do I have screen tearing... on the steam client today? >_>

Oh wow only 32 MB of video ram, I believe that limits me greatly

Unless you're running a PC from the late 90s, I'd say the tool is mistakenly using your integrated GPU rather than your discrete one.

Well it told me that aside of my video card my CPU is not strong enough so I believe the point is moot

This is a very weird game...new store page

This is probably someone's fetish.

 

[Arthea]

after update the steam client freezes every time I go to the store... it recovers after some time and it never was brisk to begin with, but that's just too annoying.

 

[Rikudo]

Does Dark souls III on PC still have loads of hackers giving you weird stuff leading to a softban/getting you banned?

 

[JaseC]

Yeah, the beta client was occasionally locking up for me and the issue seems to have carried over to the latest stable update to a small degree.

 

[zkylon]

not sure how true this is but still funny for me

Only 4 hours but still, not bad to get a short Star-Wars kick.

Nice, that's enough time to find at least one match or two.

The SFM scene loves Overwatch.

Oof i should comsider backing it then

 

[Lain]

Just got done trying the demo to reach the final decision if I should back or not, and decided to back it. The gameplay is nice and the fact the game is supposed to come out in July makes it a short wait.

 

[Atraveller]

Not as much as they love Mass Effect, but yeah, Overwatch is pretty popular.

 

[Kiru]

Time to install Overwatch!

 

[Tellaerin]

Well, this sucks.

Stumbled my way through Blighttown (good riddance), killed Quelaag on the third try, entered the Demon Ruins, got my ass soundly kicked by something called "Ceaseless Discharge" (sounds more like a nasty STD than a demon), stumbled back through Blighttown until I managed to find my way out through the Anor Londo ruins, ran to the bonfire at Firelink Shrine to save...

And the fire's out, and the Firekeeper's dead.

Bleh.

There's also a giant... head... thing in the pool room now. Very surreal.
