No one stopped me, I went and bought them. I am so weak. I had even decided not to get Infinite until Minerva's Den got on Steam. Yeah, right. Doesn't help that it seems it's taking forever for that.

I've played tons of DLC I really liked and thought the cost of entry was worthwhile for.

Give it a few days and Valve will release cards for another 200 titles.
Now that sounds like a plan!
Well, I actually played through Tomb Raider over the last two days, and I got one card every two hours or so, not sure what's going on with the drop rate.
They're certainly decent (I played through Asylum on the PS3 myself), but here's some light reading if you want particulars: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/face-off-batman-arkham-asylum-face-off and http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-batman-arkham-city-face-off
(it's not on steam but) apparently marvel ultimate alliance doesn't recognize multiple controllers, making local co-op impossible. anyone think there could be a way to get it to work or is it a lost cause?
what a shitty amateurish bug that apparently went under the radar
it's a lost cause isn't it

I'm bored and I kinda want to reinstall Baldur's Gate 1 or 2, but I don't wanna push through all that content I already played right now, in both games the start-up game is incredibly long -.- Anything on Steam that's somewhat cheap and may scratch that itch?
Not on steam, but GOG is having an RPG deals weekend.
Also GMG still has the Dungeon Sieges for 75% off, which isn't quite Baldur's Gate level, but...
Yes, they're both really good games. Plus you'll find out just how much you like or dislike the gameplay before buying the more expensive Origins.

In batman? They're some of the most fun things in the game. The predator rooms are basically big puzzle rooms as you progress through them.

Torchlight?

It seems now that when I go to activate a game on Steam it crashes the client. A quick google search showed that people were having the same problem when they were participating in the beta and deactivating the beta fixed it. I tried that and it's still crashing. Anyone else running into this? I just got a key for a game I want to play and now I can't activate it. Can you activate games from the website somewhere?
Maybe not on Steam but I'm trying to remember a game (old one) that he (the player) said a lot "UPDATING MY JOURNAL" or something similar. I know it's a good one and I can't believe I'm forgetting the name, ugh!
If you want loot there's Torchlight 1 & 2 (go for 2), Titan Quest seems decent enough too.

Thank you very much for the key fellow GAFfer derExperte and I was so tempting on grabbing Risen 2 when it was 75% Off.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Look further to the right.

It's not by the play button anymore, they moved it off to the right in that game news, store page, cd key link mess.
Edit: I think I just updated steam and it went back to the play button...
You're thinking of Planescape Torment.

Planescape! That might be an option, never played too much of that.
Yes Planescape Torment. Oh, how I was forgetting the name's game, I have no idea.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to redeem keys from outside the client (this is a feature I wish Valve would ape from Desura). Try reinstalling Steam, though you'll want to move the steamapps and userdata folders out of harm's way first. (A common recommendation is to simply delete everything in the Steam folder but steamapps and steam.exe, then restart the client, but I once encountered an issue this didn't fix that a proper reinstall did.)

I swear sometimes I feel that PC gaming is some elaborate scheme to get me to spend more money on games.
I have no interest in Bioshock Infinite, but I'm so tempted to pick it up for $11 at Gamefly.

Think bigger! I'm close to the halfway point of having one for every day of the year.

It even synchronizes between GAF and STEAM!

I'm suspect both the preorder bonuses are combat challenge rooms which are the least fun things in the game.
Install BG2 and get the "Dungeon Be Gone" mod which removes the tutorial dungeon.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot. Apparently if you just let it sit for 4 or 5 minutes, the activation menu comes up eventually and Steam unfreezes. Just FYI for anyone else with this issue.
What's all this about play time being moved, is that just for the beta client? I've seen people talk about it before too but it's still on my profile where it has been since they changed it months ago.
I like those too since it pushes your skill with the combat system to the max but I still prefer the predator ones. It feels more like traditional Batman.

Damn, should have read more about Age of Booty before buying it yesterday on Steam Pirate Sale. Or used Enchanted Steam. For a multiplayer game, the amount of its DRM just makes a potentially fun game unplayable. First you have Securom, then a gamefly account and if I understood it correctly even more accounts after that. I thought buying a gift copy of Age of Booty for a friend but I know he wouldn't be interested going through all that stuff. Probably too late because the daily deal is over but a warning: do not buy Age of Booty.. I already hate that I supported such DRM-cluster.

I must say I am terrible at Rogue Legacy but man if this game isn't amazing! I've died over 70 times and I have yet to beat the first boss. I think that says more about me than the game! Are there any other games that are similiar to this style. I know I am getting ahead of myself but damn if this game isn't great.

lol?
Games for Windows Live has a bug where if the game doesn't save quite right it wont read your save file and act like it's not there even though it is.
I was almost at the end of Batman Arkham City when I got hit by this. I had to wait months for them to patch it so I could spend less then an hour beating the game.
Games for Windows Live sucks.
Yeah, I don't know how I managed that. Did anyone take that key?

You aren't alone. I think I hit level 120+ before I beat the second boss. It's a tough game.

That depends on whether you're asking for similar platforming or Roguelike elements (permadeath, randomly-generated levels, etc.).

Yes YEs YES!!!.
Got it and many thankies.
Edit.
LOL, you removed it, but I got it
(I didn't notice you changed it until after I entered it - you know how we need to move fast for keys like that).Okay, works for me. I should pay more attention when trying to give away games.
You're welcome.

That right there is an excited fellow. You done good, t-ramp.
I think GFWL has a lot of reasons to be hated.
- Limited to work in some regions only
- Online connectivity is patchy at best
- Your saves are tied to the GFWL
- Didn't they try and charge users for online at one point?
Consider the fact that MS output in this generation have been rather lackluster in the PC department which tied in with GFWL has created great animosity towards Microsoft.
Yeah, it's a client change -- play time is no longer shares space with the "Play" button and is now part of the right-hand menu:
I prefer the old location.

Oooh. I was wondering where that went. Not a fan of the change at all.
Haha, it's the only custom skin I've ever bothered to install and I'm happy with it.

Volgarr is pretty awesome from what people have been saying about it. It's more of a ghosts n goblins type of game though. If you want something that has a little more exploration and loose controls like Rogue Legacy you could get Guacamelee. It's not a roguelike though of course.

Wow, that is a really stupid change. Change just for the sake of it, since no one ever complained about having a number near their play button as far as I've seen.

They did move it back to the old location with an update today.
Slightly off topic: Played 15 hours of Sleeping Dogs the past three days. Very rarely do I go whole hog on a game like that. Finished the main storyline and now I'm grabbing all the collectibles for 100%. Absolutely one of my games of the generation, and one of my favorite open world games besides Just Cause 2. If you haven't played it, buy it on Steam ASAP (I played it on PS3). Console version is great but MAN, it looks drop dead gorgeous on PC.
On topic: So that Takedown game is a bad apple? Everything pre release looked really good, but I've heard nothing but negative stuff about it since it hit Steam.
