Yeah thanks to enhanced steam I was reminded that I have 34 card drops to get right now. I neglected them for so long since I had no drops remaining for a while. Looks like some idling will happen to get me some card money before the sale ends.

 

[neoism]

is that all the game on sale the whole sale no dailies or anything??????

 

[neoism]

Your devotion to Saoirse Ronan is contagious.

true dat..

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Because Enhanced Steam has a custom background setting that allows you to use backgrounds you'd otherwise have to buy on Steam Market for free.

... what.

jshackles does what Nintendon't.

Emotions and indie won over murica doggies.

This is how it should be. Better games win over names.

That is pretty low for a game that started on the Wii.

 

[Grief.exe]

Did they fix the mouse input? When I played the demo when it released it had some terrible mouse accel problems.

Yes, there is a option in the menu to remove mouse acceleration now.

I believe this was fixed fairly shortly after release.

I should also note that the price for the Steam Halloween sale is not that great.

I have almost completed my masterpiece; it needs just one finishing touch. I shall call it "The Many Faces of Max":

A big "thank you!" to all those who've helped and will help (come back, Accent!)

You know what, I take back what I said earlier today. If you're gonna do this, you have to do it with the best franchise ever, like you just did.

(I have to beat Dark Forces and MotS before I can feel sorry for Jedi Knight)

TF2 update page is out.

 

[KarmaCow]

After Valve killed idling in TF2 it ironically made me actually play the game less but I'm all in for farming items in the new Halloween map.

edit: Hightower variant? God damn it Valve. Winning 142 rounds in that will takes years decades.

Awesome. Didn't understand how they could do that after RE5's KB+M was perfect. I thought they would do the same discount for Halloween that they did earlier in the month, but I'll hold out a bit more.

 

[Dolor]

Its an interesting discussion because I'm sure the cost of maintaining a platform like that is very high.
Programmers to work on the client, customer service reps, servers. These things don't come cheap.

And, unlike Steam, they are really only selling their games. I'm sure 3rd party sales are at a trickle.

Also, Simcity was a both a failure and a source of potential damage to the Origin brand.

As an aside, none of the quoted growth rates in EA's call were close to what Gabe says Valve/Steam is doing.

*patiently waits for VIII to come to Steam*

Same.

Maybe one day a games journalist will have the balls to use my idea and ask an EA exec if they would consider the concept of putting their games on Steam a few weeks after the Origin release (which would also have extra stuff to entice buyers). That would be nice.

I'm surprised Valve hasn't tried going to back to the table regarding this DLC spat, maybe they have though. There are creative solutions both companies could come up with.

I think the fact that the spat just happened to coincide with EA building their own entire competitor to Steam is probably more than circumstantial.

There's a million ways around the so-called DLC issue. Sell every game on Steam as the Ultimate or GOTY edition. Sell games on Steam with the season pass already... and on and on. Plenty of Steam games have their own in-game store.

They obviously updated the retail activation package. Origin and GMG keys confirmed so far.

I completely forgot about that train wreck. Simcity actually did pretty well in terms of sales, unfortunately it damaged the brand and EA's image overall.

From Steam forums, it looks like Arkham City retail keys are working, but Arkham Asylum retail keys are not.
This is for GFWL keys that you bought at the store.

Spelunky on top

[Mengy]

Simcity sold okay, but well below EA's expectations.

I wonder how many units Simcity 4 has sold on Steam?

I'm not really entirely sure on your meaning for the majority of this, but that GFWL key is considered retail.

 

[KarmaCow]

It's adding over 100 (cosmetic) items and a retooled map.

 

[neoism]

Uplay (Ubisoft) has Final Fantasy VII for $3.

Thanks for this. I bought it but I have to say... I might avoid the uPlay store in the future. Took forever for every email. A good 10 minutes where nothing showed in my orders before I finally got the email containing the key.

Another year, another Halloween event. Not that excited this year, but I'll probably hop in for a few rounds.

 

[neoism]

lol my card is a 5870 its still insanely high for a game like that the size too...

 

[drizzle]

I'd buy Final Fantasy VII on Ubisoft, but they have a Brazilian Store and the game is not discounted there. Still 10 USD for me.

 

[Tesseract]

5 bucks for new vegas ultimate is a hell of a deal. buy it y'all, it's the best open world rpg of the generation.

 

[Hasney]

Aw, I was hoping for an MVM Halloween event.

well they are two slots for keys my is in the bottom one... anyway.. /tear

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Eh, not the most impressive Scream Fortress, but I'll wait to play it.

Aw, I was hoping for an MVM Halloween event.

The Witching Hour looks to be a new MVM map.

 

[Tesseract]

ALSO: for anyone sitting on the prototype 2 buy or no buy fence, watch THIS.

yeah, it's fucking amazing.

 

[MNC]

Guys, it's happening again... I kind of seem to want to buy Alien: Colonial Marines...

Aw, I was hoping for an MVM Halloween event.

Yea even something like Wave 666 was good.

A big thing is the ability to mod it.
