No better way to celebrate having 2k games I'm highly unlikely to play than buying something I'll literally never use.
I didn't even know the rabbit hole went that deep, man.

I finished Costume Quest the other day as well and honestly, found it horrendously bland and boring. It didn't manage to really catch my interest at any point but thankfully was pretty short, so I managed to wrap it up.
Now Stacking? That's a game I enjoyed.
Reminds me of Planetside 2
Was about to say the same thing. It looks like a Vanu Sunderer.

It's kinda reminiscent of the visual design of Red Faction 2 for me.
How was this person able to IM me? I make sure to keep my friend's list clean because of a previous DDOS harassment problem I had. I'm in the Steam Trading Cards Group, is that how he was able to IM me? I thought a prompt would show up when someone from a Steam Group wanted to IM me.
I do not remember RFG looking that bad....

I just want you to accept my request. Don't be a beech.
What are your privacy settings set at?
Did they maybe get reset somehow?
Otherwise yeah, it's probably the Steam Group.
Huh. It does kind of have that look, now that you mention it. Though that paint job (orange and grey, divided by a thin white stripe) was the thing that stuck out for me, since it reminded me of this:

He's not in the Steam Trading Group. What other groups are you in?

If you were playing CS:GO I think that's one way that could've happened, I believe you can send messages through profiles you check in-game.

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.
It's a pretty new site but it's kind of cool. Will probably be adding links to the store pages to Enhanced Steam once they get a few more of the bugs fleshed out.

Are we ever going to like define rules on spoilers in this thread?
I know it's the PC gaming hub. But if I search this thread for a small game the results are littered with unmarked spoilers due to the way GAF handles BBcode. I feel like this thread is ideal for general impressions but discussing spoilers, especially end game spoilers probably should go in a dedicated thread or spoiler thread not here. Many small game threads are deserted because people are too busy discussing it in here.

The new (still available) Star Trek game was actually really good. I'm a huge fan of the show/series and also really liked the new movies. That being said, I got to the first "ship battle" sequence and died about 15 times before giving up and calling it quits.
I may find a tutorial or something online to get through that part, the rest of the game was pretty good.
I didn't even know the rabbit hole went that deep, man.
It was accidentally discounted by 50% when last year's Autumn Sale began, but I no idea the fee was a "game" until several weeks ago; I just assumed it was something you paid as part of the Greenlight listing process. Oddly enough, the only territory in which it's cheaper is Brazil -- ~USD$75 versus USD$100+ everywhere else, including Eastern Europe.
Edit: Valve sorely needs to fix the issue resulting in non-discounted titles showing up in the specials list: of the 196 items currently flagged as discounted, only around 70 of them are actually reduced.
Oh. Right. D-A-C is that multiplayer one.
Interesting that you liked the new one. Might pick it up the next time I see a cheapie copy in a retail bargain bin.

Has R* said anything about removing GFWL from GTAIV?
Nope.
Frankly, I think chances aren't very big. They've got GTA V coming, after all.
I wish TellTale, Frogwares, Centauri, or some other Adventure game maker would get a chance at Star Trek. Main universe or Star Trek 11/12 universe.
A co-op door opening game didn't do it for me combat wise, and it was always the universe, cultures, politics, etc that made me enjoy the stories with the action jut enhancing that rather than the other way around.
Of course I also preferred the idea of Star Trek ships being like submarines, one blast could cause major damage out in space, rather than the "pew pew" hundreds of lasers of the recent movies and Star Wars style.
Transcripted was always one I felt was a shame they removed, so thanks for the giveaway.

But it's on sale..., oh well.
GTAIV has flown up the Top Sellers list and is currently sitting at #2. I wouldn't be surprised if R* is using today's Daily to gauge whether or not removing GFWL is a worthwhile endeavour (the answer, it seems, is "yes").
Oh, it's definitely worthwhile, but a lot of the multi is hooked into GFWL, so they'd have to either move to their new system, or write up something new/kill the multi. Either way, it's a lot of work.

That dude is a legend.
Certainly, but if people are still buying the game en masse, then it wouldn't be financially prudent to just let it die alongside GFWL. 3-6 months of work to guarantee many more years of sales seems like a fair trade.

I would play a game with this art "style". Survival horror game.

EDIT: Chrome only for now but I may have a newer Firefox version ready this week.
But what about my Maxthon browser support?
By that time they should have the new hotness out (seriously Rockstar, by then you really should.) If they assume nobody would want to go back to the older game, that's a lot of man hours saved (they'd rather have them working on Online, I think)
This is the PC we're talking about; there'll always be an active community for something popular even if a new instalment comes along.

*sniff* I'll always remember the good times with MyIE2 and Maxthon.

Maybe they're hoping for Durante to have time to fix it after he's done the Japanese games
Anyway, we could speculate for ages, we'll just have to see (and hope).
Oh man, I remember using that in my SBC cable internet helpdesk days, years ago.

Speaking of, Capcom never got back to me about it reportedly stamping out GFWL.
Someone else should try.morningbus
Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
where the fuck is my enhanced steam for lynx
Why would jshackles waste his time developing Enhanced Steam for body spray?
I went in for Transcripted. Seems like the more interesting one.
Thanks for doing a giveaway with games no longer on Steam.

Yeah, seriously. It makes specials page completely unusable.
Axe deodorant is Lynx in the great British Empire.
Oh. It's been so long since I've seen the Axe brand. Thought they were dead already.
