Any news? Deals? Giveaways?

 

[yoshizzle]

Reviews are already out today.

I think he means reviews for the console itself.

 

[JaseC]

Thanks JaseC! got Mark of the Ninja

No worries. Odd that nobody entered the raffle, but at least it's found a home!

 

[NaM]

Oh why did you have to post that qt. I'm at work and now I need to look up more of her. Dang it.

Because Australia.

The hell happened with the Racing Transformed giveaway? I got a MP saying that I won it, I add it on Steam and says that was already used, and then I check and see that the guy nuked it without asking me (I don't know if that really happened, I won't acuse anybody).

Now I'm sitting here on a Monday morning masturbating in front of my boss.

I mean, that's a Monday afternoon team-building exercise. My whole day is out of whack now.

 

[The_Monk]

What is that scam awesome deal you're talking about?

It's about that random game keys site people were mentioning above fellow GAFfer. You pay 1€ for one random game, it can be a good, bad or a bad rat, I believe.

i noticed this, it seems for whatever reason modbot chose 2 winners for that game. seems like a bug, sorry about that

 

[Volcynika]

I need to be Steam friends with JaseC so I don't feel as bad about owning so many Steam games.

I'd say the whack has just begun.

The game doesn't support widescreen resolutions internally either, it would just stretch watever it renders, which funnily enough is a 16:9.6 game with black borders all around.. Last time I checked, there was no way to fix it, but according to thePc Gaming Wiki page, there's a .DLL injector that fixes it.

There's also a bunch more issues with the game, like flashing textures, stuttering fps and desyncing audio, but according to the PcGamingWiki page, they're all fixable.

I never bought the PC version because of those issues and, like poopninja, I already have the 360 version.

Ok I've decided that if I see the PC version for a low price before I'm ready to play it, I'll buy it. Otherwise I'll load up the 360 version when I'm ready to play it. Thanks for all the replies.

ModBot, don't play with my feelings :___(

out of whack

I'd say the whack has just begun.

I got like three hours of sleep last night, too. Even my fight-or-flight subroutines operate at advanced levels.

 

[Tenrius]

Jumped the ship on this random key thing as well. How long does the processing take? Anyway, I expect to own at least a couple of those five games I'm going to get, so watch out for a ModBot giveaway!

Thanks for Scribblenauts, been wanting to give it a go.

It took like 30ish minutes maybe?

My order sat idle for around 4.5 hours, but time differences may have played a part in that.

I need to be Steam friends with JaseC so I don't feel as bad about owning so many Steam games.

One should never feel bad about their game count! Unless it's low.

 

[kulapik]

I won't put any of my money on that. Don't know if they are Bundle resales, but I don't trust that website.

Thanks for the original (best) fear

Oh, okay. It's just that I have an overnight train to catch in two hours, would be nice to get it before then.

I actually wonder just how it works. Most of the keys seem to come from bundles, and the others are probably just retail keys.

EDIT: Oh, it's already there! Took like 10 minutes. Here's what I got:

Section 8 Steam Key Steam
Sniper: Ghost Warrior Gold Edition Steam
Reaxxion Steam
The 39 Steps Steam
Star Wolves 3: Civil War Steam

Kind of bad lol.

Thanks... Was missing that one and it always slipped away from my fingers.

Wait, is that F.E.A.R. 2 or the DLC? The image is confusing me. :lol

My comment was supposed to be pronoun-neutral but you beat my edit.

 

[Hasney]

ModBot is on the fritz fo shizz. There's 2 winners of the FEZ key as I got 2 receipts (One from ModBot and one from ModBot 3), so apologies to the person who goes to redeem it second.

 

[C00kie M0nster]

console...not games. Because apparently we review consoles now

My apologies. I forgot the ridiculous idea of reviewing a console... I understand impressions on the UI, controller and so-forth but to actually review the console itself seems ridiculous.

 

[Barzul]

When does the Autumn sale start?

 

[Atraveller]

I feel I contributed something.

Like giving heroin to a junkie, sure.

Stump, fix this now

 

[AsylumX]

That could be said about so many things in life. But the true question is... Hoy many games in your library is considered low?

 

[JaseC]

When does the Autumn sale start?

Presumably next Thursday. It's begun on a Thursday the past couple of years and the 21st strikes me as a little too early.

I'd draw the separating line at 500.

euro truck simulator 2 is $8 on greenmangaming right now, 20% off code GMG20-ODON7-FLUA7 works to make it $6.80

Got it thanks!

27th - Dec. 2nd makes most sense to me.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I remember when I started on Steam and the only game I had was literally Team Fortress 2 because it was on sale for 2.50. That was back during my /v/ days though.
I didn't pick up Steam really until earlier this year when I started popping into the Steam OT. Then at first I was going to do the whole "Only games I absolutely want on steam" but the bundle keys that are one key for all the games ruined that so now I just throw everything into my steam account.

So yeah, these are the random keys for the games I already owned. I actually really like The 39 Steps and Star Wolves.

But the next thursday IS the 21st.

Lingual peculiarities. If I were referring to the Thursday of this week, I'd say "this Thursday" (or "this past Thursday" if it were two or more days ago); "next Thursday" refers to the Thursday of the following week.

Is your game count limp and drooping? Is your significant other complaining about your lack of Steam in the bedroom? You may be suffering from Low Steamtosterone.
