Hi there Steam GAF! I hope all of you enjoyed the sales this past week and had a good Thanksgiving (if you're American that is, I have no idea what the rest of the world is up to, ha). I bought several games for myself, and one to giveaway here. What game is that do you ask?

Don't Starve

I have only spent about 3.5 hours with it so far, but I have found myself really enjoying it. You get dropped off in the middle of the wilderness and are expected to survive on your own. I am still stumbling my way around as I experiment with things. The longest I have lived for was about two weeks. I think I will be spending many hours trying to survive in Don't Starve. So, come along and join me out in the great unknown!

Great giveaway! This game's been on my radar for a while but I've not taken the plunge yet, your description makes it sound pretty interesting though, I've entered so will keep my fingers crossed!

To be honest it's been knackered for so long the thread title should permanently be:-

Those modders and valve need to get together so that it's released on steam even if still as a mod. Bit I played of it back on PS2 was a lot of fun.

Since were talking about Half Life I just want to mention I have no care in the world about Half Life 3 unless it has Shepard from Opposing Force. Which I personally thought was the best of the lot when it comes to Half Life 1 and it's expansions.
 
Being the cheap-ass gamer that I am, I just got Borderlands 2.
Very funny so far, and the game gave an skin thanks to my BL1 memory. Nice.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

Your choice of Simpson reference on this one.

Hi to everyone. Decided to clear out a bunch of keys from previous humble-related bundles. I'll be going through all of my keys over the next few days and doing some modbot giveaways. Anyway, here's the first small batch from the WB bundle and the current weekly sale.

Thx ZC!
 
I thought you have 336 hours of FTL in two weeks. Any less just has to be bug!

LOL

The sad thing is that I'm now starting to get the itch to cleanse my gaming palate with a different game. Probably for the best :/. The Walking Dead is looking the most likely contender. That will be a nice contrast I would think. So I would be going from one GAF gifted game to another <3.

I'm glad the community has such good taste.

The Greenlight process isn't very transparent so I wonder how many people really voted for this. Looking at the Greenlight page, most of the comments were either "lol wtf is the shit" or "hey, free stuff, guess I'll vote for it".

I'm not disputing that the community has awful taste, however. WOW SLENDERMAN SO SPOOKY SUCH UPVOTE!

I will miss coming home to many FTL new pics, but if you feel you have to move on, you just have to :)

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Yeah I always saw Dungeonland with a fee before. What made them change to f2p?

Also I realized that there's a missing game in Steam...

FIGHTER MAKER!

You will not be disappointed if you are looking for amazing single player experiences. You will be broken if you finish the 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.
huh?

I guess I just don't see the appeal of driving a virtual train sometimes

It's not FTL, it's me :'(.

Sorry, they'll return before too long don't you worry :).

The next bundle in a box got leaked.
Sadly, the only steam games are Cognition ep 1 & 2 again, so I'm not going to list everything here.

I was actually planning on starting up Cognition the other day until I realized that the only way to get Episodes 3 & 4 on Steam was to buy the whole "season".

Considering how often 1 & 2 are in bundles I figure it's only a matter of time before the rest are as well.

More steam codes. With all the FTL talk that's going on, here's a chance for someone to jump into a fantastic game.

I know this isn't really the steam trading thread and all, but I had someone message me about trading away my TF2 earbuds. Is this item actually worth anything, and if so what would a reasonable trade value be for them? I don't want to try and screw someone over if the item is somewhat rare, but I'm definitely a budget gamer and if I could get a few games for them I'd have to jump on it. Anyway....onto the giveaway.

Actually, I think they're hoping to get people to their own store to buy 3 & 4.
It's the only reason I can think of for all these bundle inclusions.
