STEAM 2013 Announcements & Updates VII: Known bug with library game count.

Sucks to be doing something nice and have it bite you in the ass like that, I guess.

This also made me notice that I already have all their Adventure games on Steam except Emerald City Confidential (wouldn't have been interested in that Puzzle Bots one) which doesn't look like it was in the pack judging from that reddit post.

Emerald City Confidential is not published by Wadjet Eye Games, that's why it's not in the pack.

This affects everybody with the sub, including Wadjet Eye employees. Either somebody screwed up or Valve/WE is going to have to make a new Wadjet Eye Comp sub with all the relevant games.
 
Quick question regarding activating boxed retail copies of Prey on Steam: Does anyone have any idea if this will work for the Mac version as well? Reason I ask is that the Mac version is slightly cheaper on Amazon and from my short time scouring Google, I've seen a couple mentions on some random sites that seem to indicate that the Mac key should work as well. Just hoping for some confirmation from anyone around here that may have tried it for themselves before buying. If no one is sure then I'll probably stick with the PC version and play it safe.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Conspiracy hat time: which is more probable: that Valve made this mistake or that Wadjet made the mistake?

works for Gamestop (lol)
@WadjetEyeGames
So I managed to find a way to remove the additional games from the Steam code. It should only give Deception now. Yeesh.

This makes a bit more sense. I don't think Valve is responsible for updating registry subs like this. Plus, I doubt there is a dude at Valve at 10PM just waiting around to fix things.

So it wasn't Valve's fault?

Ah, I'm glad it worked out for them...I was feeling kinda bad.

The keys Valve sent to Wadjet Eye for the promotion were erroneously tied to the Wadjet Eye Comp sub rather than the Blackwell Deception sub. Wadjet Eye fixed this by updating the former and removing the additional games, but this means that even Wadjet Eye employees will now only own Blackwell Deception, so a new sub is going to have to be created unless Valve offers to remove the redeemed keys from accounts, which would allow Wadjet Eye to re-add the games to the existing sub.

Weird to know that I have more Wadjet games than the employees (well, I do have all of them...).

I see Football Manager 2013 is still up despite 2014 releasing. If Sega is going to stop removing older versions, then surely it can bring back 2008 -> 2012, too... or just 2008, since it's the only one I'm missing. ;)

Thanks, i was eying Dark Fall. I'm on a point and click frenzy.
Thanks for Organ Trail!
Thanks JaseC for AZM :)
I'm not sure I find anime girls and vampires all that scary, but bolded REX should prove something. Thank you for eXceed.
Thanks, Jase. You're the best! :D

No worries. :)

Only have steam wallet but I'm really interested in Gunslinger, if anyone wants something from the steam store to trade for it pm me please :)
 
Homecoming has a pretty dicey port. It seems unoptimized, and jittery every time I try to play it. If memory serves, the settings are pretty sparse, and even on the highest settings it still looked pretty rough. Then there's stuff like sound effects cutting off, and it being really into crashing all the time.

I don't really know how isolated my case is, but a quick Google search seems to imply that I'm not alone. I'd avoid it unless you're trying to complete a collection or something like that.
