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.
Starbound is out now. 3gb.

Seriously thinking about skipping work today to go home and play this. I love Terraria (it's actually the most played Steam game I have) and have been following Starbound's development for the last 8 months or so.

I really hope it's as great as it looks.
 
Looks like Square has plans to bring FFXIV to Steam eventually

Spare code I had from a previous HB. Should still work. To the eventual winner please let me know if it doesn't.

I upvoted Dex a few days back. : ) Have you seen Interference on Greenlight? It's more of a platformer/puzzle-type game than an RPG, but if you like 2D, sidescrolling cyberpunk games, it might be worth checking out.

Thanks for that! This one looks good as well, voted for it. I'll look at it some more later. I'm currently reading my way through the Shadow Returns anthology before I start playing it. Not that Shadow Returns is anything like these other cyberpunk styled games, I just liked the juxtaposition of the fantasy/future tech in S.R.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Seeing the new Broken Sword popping-up on the store made me a happy man. It's not even that i'm going to play it now, nor can I afford it, but the fact that there's a new "classic" Broken Sword game makes me all giddy and excited.
Next year is going to be amazing (again). So many classic franchises that are coming back. :)

...and after an half hour of The Cat Lady I am allowed to say that this game is seriously creepy. Not forced, far from it, but the atmosphere is incredibly thick and depressing.
It controls like a 2D platformer without the, uh, platforming. So. That's a bit weird.
 
Anyone know how the "Telltale Games redemption code" stuff works? I was going to pick up The Walking Dead S2 on GMG for $18, but if it has some weird Telltale storefront DRM I'll probably just shell out the extra $4 to get it on Steam.

You wouldn't get the game on steam. So 4$ extra for the steam version.

Hey jshackles, have you considered bringing over the text-style highlighting to the main store? I think it would look a lot nicer than big blocks of colour.

What I mean is something like this:

Not a bad idea, I'll look into it. :)
 
Glad to see another visual novel making it on to Steam. Hopefully Japan will get the message that their games have an untapped market on PC sooner, rather than later.

This is always a clear sign as well

2 minutes ago Removed SupportsCDKeyCopyToClipboard – 1
2 minutes ago Removed LegacyKeyRegistryLocation – HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\TestApp205730\SteamKey
2 minutes ago Removed LegacyKeyRegistrationMethod – registry

If they remove the ability for the game to store a key in the registry, or show a key on startup, then GFWL can't function.
