The Steam store sub comes with:
The retail sub comes with:
The three asset packs are missing from the Steam store sub for some reason, but they're included with Trains vs Zombies 2.
For those of you in UK (I am guessing that this applies to most of Europe as well) who are considering to pick up the Cognition Season Pass, there are significant savings to be had if you buy it directly through Phoenix Online. You will save around £5.00. It is US $20.00 (~ £12.50) versus £17.24 on Steam.
You will get Steam keys.
Okay, so I just placed an order, I didn't get a Steam key with the receipt, so I contacted support and got quick response. They are handling all the Steam keys manually for direct purchases, so expect a slight delay. Just a heads up.

It was really good, but not worth getting a ban over (where as a game like Half-Life would be).
Could they be Double Fine Amnesia Fortnight bundle prototypes?
I have them but I never actually even installed them, so I don't know about what is supposed to happen clicking on them.
did some googling and looks like yes they are - they only show up on the client
I guess they are dead now - the only prototype that became full must be Costume Quest
Arcanum is on gog sale again, now is your chance if you missed all previous!
it's in mod only

Those prototypes can still be played at any time.
So, you are sure it will be on steam? interesting!
You can give away non-Steam keys via ModBot, but just make sure they're clearly labelled as such.
No, sorry, I got my wires crossed with Anachronox.

that's great to know
Unfortunately it only features local co-op.
Thanks for the inadvertent reminder, you two. Almost missed that voucher for the third time or thereabouts. (So I'm making this post in hopes that it'll remind someone else. You've got just under four hours.)
I'm not sure it's great idea. I might feel compelled to play it again if it comes to steam, and what I remember about Anachronox mostly...it's really scary game.No, sorry, I got my wires crossed with Anachronox.
I mean graphics, no worries (><)

I loved that game.
Is this the best Quake II engine game, or can anyone think of anything better?
I can't tell, is it sarcasm?
Thanks for the reminder. I didn't realise a fair amount of DLC was included in the pre-purchase, and apparently I had Earth 2160 sitting in my GMG library, which I was able to trade in for 50c of credit.
No, true to god, I loved Anachronox.
And I think Q2 engine was a stopgap between immensely innovating Q1 and immensely influential and easy to use Q3
I've not played it, but id Tech 2 had its fair share of awesome games back in the day: Heretic II, Kingpin, Sin, and Solider of Fortune come to mind, though Sin in particular I recall being very buggy prior to being patched.
Yeah, IIRC in the unpatched game quicksaving took up to 5 minutes.
The most egregious bug I can remember is one in a later level that would cause the game to crash when moving into a newly-opened area. Nothing in particular would trigger it -- you'd just be moving down a corridor or some such and moments later the game would spit the dummy.
Somebody screwed up and applied the discounts a week early, I think. The game was erroneously 88% off (though DLC only 66% off, as intended) for a few minutes before the discounts were removed, and while the news post is still listed on the main news page, the permalink leads nowhere.

I didn't enjoy the 30 minutes or so I put into it. I'll check in on it as it gets closer to release, but "soulless" is a good way to describe it. Are they seriously calling the player "Nugget"? Yeesh
Is there a Train Simulator 2013 Bundle going on somewhere? The first page of SteamGifts is filled with it.

Ah, thanks. Guess I'll get on board.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
So the Focus Entertainment bundle is next week?
Presumably.
OK, I laughed. I think it's an exclusive Gamestop preorder bonus.

It took weeks after the X bundle showed up to actually get it. So who knows.

damn near months....
You select which games you want, and there's a one-game minimum, so you can get it for as low as 75c.
I've been lately addicted to Spacechem. Well, I'm not playing it on Steam, but on my Android phone (5", and still looks a bit small). It looks harder than it is, do you have to break your mind to get most of the puzzles, but it is very fun.
Also, yesterday I finally downloaded Sleeping Dogs. Expecting to play it this weekend with my Xbox controller.

good taste...both are awesome.
Spacechem in small chunks though, some of those puzzles are fucked.

We got two(?) visual novels in the last batch of Greenlit titles, Higurashi and Long Live the Queen so we can hope for more quality VN being released on Steam.
It theoretically has enough VRAM but the specs of the HD 545v GPU are awful.

Thanks for Train Sim. I'm really curious to see how this plays...

My worry from back when I started reading the Ready Room updates is that the makers seem quite taken with military jargon and whatnot--a lot of care seems to be taken with ship designations and names, for example, and there was a bit of a to-do over remaking the logo because they wanted it to evoke the USAF without copying it too closely. Using the US military as a template for all your stuff and adding a lot of specific military trappings for verisimilitude is a valid approach, but it's not at all why I come to space sims--games like Wing Commander and Freespace gave you the vague sense that you were in a military but didn't beat you over the head with references to the not-quite-American-but-totally-American-military stuff. Starlight Inception's early stuff and the backer updates make me think it wants you to be in the U.S. Space Air Force/Navy.
These things can change, though. The actual gameplay seemed okay, and I was backing this to have a space sim on Vita, which is still totally happening. We'll see how it goes!

Unfortunately no. But:
