Gotham City Impostors is a great time. I picked it up a few months before the F2P conversion, but haven't had a chance to play it again.
Has anyone tried out Signal Ops yet? I like the art style and the gameplay looks interesting. If it weren't for the fact that I am saving my monies for the next steam sale around the corner I might have just gone ahead and gotten it. Onto the wishlist it goes!
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah not sure what I was thinking. I re-wrote the piece to be a little more personable and to provide people with a small list of reasons why a company like Valve might actually want to hire me.
Is Legend of Grimrock that good? I don't know whether to get it or Reus...

Likely, Enhanced Steam would be completely separate from his professional obligations. It would still exist in its current form and he would still be able to update it on his own time.

Cutting it a bit close there, Ubi:
Signed, and would sign again. It reads really well now, by the way, jshack.
I always get the impression that you never sleep.

I'm still wondering if my 100 rubles pre-order of Assassin's Creed IV and Watch_Dogs is going to go through on the Ubisoft store.
I filled in my CC information correctly, but there wasn't a Brazil option for country (since it was by code I went with the closest one, Barbados, which is BB as opposed to BR) but I don't think I ever got charged on my CC.
Fingers crossed
I hoped it would be more game and less "follow the prompts to continue," but, to be fair, I could say the same about most games these days. At least this one is well-written.I've got to say. After wanting to play The 39 Steps very badly, it has been quite disappointing. I was kind of expecting more telling of the story through actual scenes (like the projector style scenes that occasionally play), rather than just art work with text laid over it with optional reading in some menus. The way it is now I would rather read the book, but I got it from a give away so I will finish it and maybe read the book after or something.
Seriously? I cant play Max Payne without creating an account with rockstar social club? Off to the never to be played shit pile with you max payne. There a shit load of never to be played uplay titles to keep you company. bunch of fucking cocksuckers with this never ending amount of fuckin log ins they expect me to keep track of forever.

Grief is correct, though if I were hired by Valve I likely would not continue to be the administrator of Enhanced Steam and would be passing the torch on to one of the other code contributors. The project is open source, so it won't be going anywhere.
Hey, so.. instead of being so absurdly revolted about this very little detail, why don't you just create an account, log to it once, set it to remember and then never bother with it ever again?

10 years from now? 15 years from now? Cause I dont need to keep track of a bullshit name and password for 15 years just to play Half Life. I'm just sick of it from everywhere. I'm not creating any account and I'm not playing the game. I've yet to play a game on uplay because i'm not writing down and keeping track of much as 1 more goddamn login. It's enough. All of these games go into the garbage game custom list. Z- never going to play these games. All the way at the bottom of my Steam library where I never see them again. max payne 3, rayman legends, far cry 3, not one of those games is worth so much as writing the log in details into a text document if it means i have to keep track of this shit for as long as I want to play the game. Which in my case is forever. If I wanted games with an expiration date I'd be a chump ass console gamer.

Thanks NingenJanai!
Thanks JaseC for Alien Spidy
Now, to give something back
Jase is three hours (and some, not I, would harshly suggest several years) behind those of us in Melbourne, time-wise, and he was merrily posting (and giving away oodles of stuff, for what it's worth) when I was up and about getting ready for work this morning.
I too doubt that Jase sleeps. Wouldn't have him any other way, though.
So rumor going around is that this Wednesday Sonic Racing Transformed may get an update and the DLC characters'll be revealed. Any noticeable changes to the game's Steam registry recently?

Speaking of Jade Empire, how is the conversion?
There is my friend who is interested but then I noticed a review on Steam (from some GAFfer) saying it's converted very badly and totally unsupported.
So, is it at least playable or patchable with some mod?
Any thoughts? Looks like a worthy purchase..
I played the retail box PC version of Jade Empire a couple of years ago and it played just fine out of the box. YMMV of course, but I encountered no bugs that I remember, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I plan on replaying it again at some point after clearing out more of my backlog.
My question is: Why do you want to be hired by Valve? To improve the client, sure. But what is your goals in improving the client?
If I was Gabe, I'd ask you this. You can't show lowest prices for obvious reasons. So that leaves the friend management and all the other stuff. But your future goals in revamping the client would be...?
I played the retail version of Jade Empire in 2005 and it worked just fine. That was... 8.5 years ago. Oh god, now I feel sad.
Why? Because Bioware and Bethesda are dead? This generation killed off so many great developers.
2K did the work, I don't think he is implying that people at Valve did it though.
He is probably just saying anything is possible with the right people.

Or maybe because he feels old. The Half-Life thread celebrating its 15th anniversary sure as hell mad me feel like that.
