Are you competitive? Do you give up quickly in fps games? Don't know how much GO differs from 1.6 but expect to die A LOT. Expect to run towards a corners and as soon as you nose is past that corner you're down. Over and over again. However, when you stick with it you'll learn. You will improve, over time. There are practice maps, even for specific weapons. If most of this doesn't sound compelling to you don't I it might not be your thing.
Thanks for the suggestions guys.
I'm going to do the 'fake key' thing, and gift the game directly through steam to whoever wins.
In that case, only enter if you don't mind winning Bad Rats
The 'big game' went to my email though, so the lucky winner will get that immediately.

So now that the Steam sales are over, Battlefield Bad Company 2 and F.E.A.R. 2 are my biggest pickups.
Such is life when you're a veteran of every other Steam sale. Bad Company 2 is still good, though, I'm enjoying playing it, and I really, really want to replay FEAR 2 on PC.
I got Metro for 1 cent, too, but that wasn't "technically" a Steam sale.

Foil badge?
If you still need help, let me know.
I actually did that. I got one of each card so in case prices won't go up by a wide margin in the future I can at least craft a badge and level up my profile.

That's weird. I'm on W8.1 preview also and I could test Bioshock 2 when I get back home if you want. I did have to install some MS especific crap to make SSFIV:AE work, but after that every GFWL game worked ok.
so for my final buy of the Summer Sale, I just bought Civ 5 Gold. The last time I played Civ5 was a couple of weeks after it was released, so I only know the vanilla experience.
anyway, I really don't have time for ONE MORE TURN, but at least I have the base game + some DLCs so I can wait for the Brave New World price drop

Windows 8.1 is basically an alpha at this point right? Not sure why you're surprised things don't work.

Can you detail what you did please? Just checked every GFWL game I have and the overlay works in none of them. And yeah, I'd appreciate you checking.
Don't know if I'd really consider it an alpha, or if they do. They recommend having a backup but 95% of things work.
Edit: To clarify it is the Windows 8.1 beta. Meant more in terms of I don't think they consider it alpha like in terms of bugs and usage. I mean they obviously don't or it would be the alpha.

)Edit: To clarify, I crafted the badge earlier, not just now.
Ugh. My condolences.Reinstalling GFWL either deleted or moved my Dark Souls and Batman save files
Oh wow that's really smart. I finished my badge and just decided to hoard the rest of the cards until they rose in price.

Anyone interested in Sonic Allstar Racing for $5? I'm about to purchase a 4 pack. Got 2 slots available

Wait a couple weeks for Batman and Bioshock play throughs.
They are getting achievements and possibly removing the DRM associated with them.
If you are deleting and reinstalling remember to remove license before you do.
These I expect to keep going up. Holding onto mine.
This was a good decision.
I'm certain it's not a sliding scale. Otherwise it would have made more sense to say "with every level you gain, your drop rate increases by 1%" and then given various levels as examples, not just multiples of ten.
For anyone who's just generally confused about cards, I wrote a big explanatory post about the whole mess which a few people say they've found helpful. Maybe it'll help you, too.
I am interested! PMed you as well
Did you install this? http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/pc/downloadclient
Usually fixes the xlive.dll issue

I should have done this when it was ~$10 to craft the badge. Now I won't be getting HL3.

Oh dear. I'm about to start playing Dark Souls. Does DSfix's save backup prevent GFWL cockups like this? Assuming I stick to the same account?

oh god, Rogue Legacy is more hilarious as I unlock more and more things. I still can't believe they included ninjas and hokages. so goood!
Dark Souls has cloud saves via GFWL. Your character should be there when you redownload your gamertag profile. It ain't alllllll bad.Reinstalling GFWL either deleted or moved my Dark Souls and Batman save files
If you've ever said or agreed with the comment "_____ isn't even a game" then Proteus probably isn't for you. It's little more than a virtual walk in a park, but worth it if that might appeal to you.
Sure no problem, it took me a while to find the right distributable which was needed plus the gfwl client, it didn't work with the client alone, it had to be both. I get back from work in 10 hours or so, PM if you can because I may forget.

It's got a savefile backup function.
Got those as well
Maybe I should point out that my Steam collection is close to 400 XD

man, I've been there.. W7 is the fix for W8
That movie is so amazingly good.

Spent $100. Planned to spend max $50. I have no willpower when it comes to Steam sales.
This is like the summer of the ARPG for me though. Holy crap I have a lot of them now.
edit: only thing I regret is the Devil May Cry bundle. I knew I didn't like those games going in, but I still wanted them. DMC4 crashes like mad on my rig too, so it is a total waste.

You sure about that?
From tried to get Cloud Saves working through Steam, but never activated the feature.
If it's any consolation, I had to pay ~$20 for the requisite cards. I didn't expect the foils to increase in price so suddenly; instead I had assumed they'd still be floating around $1~$1.50, even in the closing hours of the sale, however I was grossly incorrect. "Hindsight is 20/20" and all that.
Well. All I know is my windows hard drive with steam installed on it died a few months ago and took the saves for all my other games with it. After I downloaded gfwlsetup.exe and reacquired my gamertag my level 30 character was there. When I loaded the game before I ran GFWL setup, it wasn't.

listen to the mad man
Interactive screensaver, very dynamic, some interesting visual experiences, yes it has an ending so don't stop until you've finished it and yes you'll know when you've finished it.

I shouldn't have sold my Riptide foil card... But I was 1 euro short for a game at the time
