I have to finish Black Fortress still but with all these damn Halloween events... I probably wont have time until they are over. I love looking forward to playing a game though, it'll feel nice when I sit down to load it up.

Well, it's been.... ages, but no, not Super Meat Boy hard
As for genre no one likes any more... I don't know.
Quite a few indie games are similar in basic gameplay (see for example Hammerwatch)
That's an issue at Valve's end -- in some cases content isn't flagged as owned despite it being tied to your account. A final, thorough cross-check is run when checking out to ensure people can't accidentally purchase something twice, which is why you're unable to buy it.

First world problems. I have one of those American express serve cards. Its like a refillable credit card. Anyways I'm going to close the account since they are going to start charging a monthly fee. However I still have $2.99 credit I need to get rid of before I can close it. Oh Neogaf, what should I buy off steam for $2.99? I have a ton of games so I'm having trouble finding something for $2.99 that I don't already own,

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I've encountered a few issues like this. Enhanced Steam uses the storefront API to determine if you own something or not. So if the API says you don't own it, and it doesn't show up in the storefront with the typical "green banner", there is know way for Enhanced Steam to know if you own it or not.
Typically when people ask, I tell them their best bet is either to a) ignore it or b) put in a support ticket with Steam.
And speaking of Enhanced Steam: I've got a few updates I'm working on for the next version, and I'm working concurrently to bring these new features to Firefox. So a new Chrome AND Firefox version are in the works and should be released soon.
Just find something you like at the top of this list.
Good thing you played AA first. AC makes it impossible to go back and play it again. It's a true evolution of the formula, an actual sequel. It's rare to see that anymore.
Oh you...
Saying that I've picked up a horrible collecting habit of my own. Ubi have just launched a new Assassin's Creed website which levels you up by what AC games you have linked to your Uplay account and completed the main story. I'm only missing 7 out of 19 and 3 of them haven't been released yet.
Yeah, I heard about that so I stuck with it, was almost done with the game but lost my save so had to replay
Can't wait!

So that's why it says I own the ultimate edition of Fallout: New Vegas when I have just the base game and the 2 cosmetic DLCs.
I need to get the 4 story DLCs sometime I think.
AC is the better game but I think the story in AA is more cohesive. If I could get the level of story in AA with the mechanics of AC, that would make the perfect Batman game for me.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Probably the best price for this for at least six months to a year.
Are you feeling alright? That was... something nice.

Avadon 2: The Corruption Now Available
Awesome, didn't realise it was anywhere near ready to release. Not a bad price either, will probably save this one to play over the xmas holidays.
INDIE GAMES BLAARRRGGGHHH
Sounds like you should play Origins. I'm only about halfway through the story but in the OT everyone who beat it is saying the story blows the other 2 games away. I am noticing it is a bit darker and less cartoony in tone.
As for the gameplay it's pretty close to being the same as AC with a few minor but solid tweaks and additions. It's really well done for a 2nd team.

The batman games are one of the few bright spots of this past generation so I'll always have something nice to say about them.

Refined metal, which is a lower denomination of TF2 currency than keys. Like pence to pounds or cents to dollars (although the ratio is not 100:1)

Damn that is high praise coming from you Derrick. I do need to get Arkham Origins and play it if the story is better then the first two.
Legacy of Kain games, specifically Soul Reaver
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream
Shadow Man
Congrats to trailmix16 for winning I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream! There were 102 entrants total. I bought the game to giveaway before it was put in a bundle, so I'm sorry that I gave away a game that can be found cheaper now, but I hope you enjoy the HORROR these people have to suffer
Crossdressing Halloween! ends in a few hours, so be sure you enter that giveaway!

Alright. So something you can't buy on the Steam market then.
The first one...?
Arkham Asylum
I'll post this here, since I suffered the last post curse
Yeah, ref needs to be crafted or given as change when trading.
Edit: Or purchased on the "grey market".

Arkham Asylum, might as well start with the first game since Arkham City's story greatly references Asylum's.
Yep, this. Also, the common rate is usually 6:1. So 6 ref would be worth one key.
You can obtain ref and keys through these trading sites as well, and payment is usually through Paypal. And in most cases, it works out considerably cheaper than the steam market.
Arkham Asylum is a great game. I enjoyed its style (3D metroidvania-ish) a bit more than City's, but the latter game's mechanics are better. Plus it has different boss battles instead of the same thing over and over again.
But they're both great and both recommended. I haven't played Origins yet, though

It's worth mentioning that if you go this route, you don't have a safety net -- if you get screwed over, all you can do is open a dispute with PayPal and hope for the best, whereas on Steam you have the option of asking Valve to reverse the trade.
Closure, if you like puzzle games. EDIT: Huh, misread the price. Guess you'd have $0.50 left after that too.
And since RionaaM can't be here to say it: F.E.A.R. (...you'd have $0.50 left after that though)
True, whilst more expensive, you do have more of a safety net. But as long as you stick to reputable sellers, it will be fine the vast majority of the time. I've not had a single trade go through that I wasn't happy with.

Just started yesterday and I tend to agree. Still getting used to the upgrade and gadget system.
Well now I feel like a monster hahaha.
Still glad to see you're enjoying Origins. That's a make or break affair with the glitches, faster combat and twisted upgrade tree. Though it's the first in the series I've felt has the essence on Batman and not just feel of the setting. If you've read Year One I've found so far it has taken a lot of characterisation from that.
AA-->AC-->AO
Despite the last game being a prequel, from a game mechanics standpoint the last 2 make Asylum unbelievably boring to play through. Combat encounters in AA grow to like 6 guys at most usually and there's limited room to glide and do Batman stuff outside of predetermined rooms. The "boss" fights are terrible in that game as well. AC and AO give you the freedom to glide around and provide many more characters to the story, vastly improved combat mechanics (with fights that can have around 20 people at once if not more) and much better boss fights.
Yeah, if you do your due diligence then the likelihood of the something going awry greatly diminishes, but it's important those new to the game are aware that there is always an element of risk involved when trading outside of Steam. Ditto for using a VPN to unlock games early or redeem a region-locked key, even though there are no confirmed reports of Valve taking action against people using VPNs for reasons other than skirting region-specific pricing, since the SSA technically forbids using one at all.
"FEAR has one of the best shotguns in FPS history" comes up at least once a month.
I need to resume my Extraction Point playthrough, come to think of it.Jase's house
Haha, that's awesome.
Hey this is the steam thread, we don't play games around here... stop asking okthnxbye
I can't comment on MGC, but I don't think I've ever read a good thing about BGT -- well, other than "It redeems on Steam."

New for me, thanks for the heads up!
Haha. Thanks. No buy then.
Bloody good time is a great concept that just wasn't that compelling to me. Considering it's multiplayer nature, weather or not it's still active would be important to find out first.
Assassin's Creed multiplayer-ish. I think there was even some story where they stole the idea and the developer ended up disbanding but not sure.
