Is there a way to boost audio in Sonic & All-Stars Transformed beyond the sliders in the options menu? The audio comes in so quiet.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but that Survivor 2299 site updated and... it's a fake: http://thesurvivor2299.com/

People should just pay attention to URL registrations. When it first popped up, Stump pointed out that it was registered in Poland, and that Bethesda wouldn't use a European date structure, and that should have been it. Not that the kind of thing isn't fun to follow, but it's pretty easy to spot fakes.

My only problem with CSGO going on sale are the hackers that come with it. Played at least one competitive game with a blatant hacker and I'm pretty sure at least 2 other games had hackers that were less apparent (no across map headshots with a negev from spawn, etc).

Oh the hacker days, In 1.6 all pubs would have a hacker every hour or so. Not very fun for them, they mainly do it to piss us off.

I just finished both DLCs yesterday with all achievements done. Both of them are great as their missions and levels are well-designed with tons of avenues and ways to complete the missions. I believe it's even possible to finish them without using any powers and without taking out any enemies.

I definitely like the multiple ways to approach missions since I like to be stealthly while using powers and only knock people out instead of killing them. Also do they do a good job or wrapping up Duad's story. If you can't tell me without spoiling anything then that's fine.

The handful of retail-exclusive JP apps aside, I think all I'm missing now are just the various Korean Football Managers, FM 2013 Asia and FM 2014 RU.

Edit: I need to get around to finishing Botanicula. I adore Amanita's work.

There actually are rumors that the reason why Half Life 3 is taking so long to be developed is because Valve has diverted all their resources into creating a Multiverse-extinguishing Reality Bomb.

Gaben is Davros now? Explains a few things, and there's a definite facial resemblance.

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.

I wonder how they'll change up the Winter sale from the Autumn sale to differentiate the two, if at all.

I feel like by that memo leaking, saying that the prices would be the same between the two, that it made me just not participate in the Autumn one, in favor of waiting for the Holiday. I mean I didn't have any money at the time, but I still feel like with that knowledge you just kind of choose one.

Maybe I just have too many games, and am in this bizarre consumerist bubble of believing in a concept of spoiling yourself for one sale, by participating in another.

That's probably it.

The problem is that people were expecting a typical Valve sale which is usually in some way interactive. The Autumn sale was a bit of a let down since there wasn't a "gimmick". Just cheap games.

The summer sale was a let down as well. The mystery card shenanigans were incredibly anticlimactic. Valve hasn't had a fun sale in years...

I feel like it was much bigger than it has been in the past though, which being three weeks apart from Winter just seems strange to me. If it was the scale of the Halloween sale that would make more sense, given the time frame, but I guess a lot of developers would want their games in as many sales as possible.

More people have more chances at games though, I guess.

I'll PM you guys in a sec.

Edit: I received a response from Shiny Loot vis-a-vis Gray Matter and Steam keys:

It is likely because we are in the process of receiving Steam keys from the same publisher for another game, but I cannot guarantee it as ultimately it comes down to them and things may change between then and now.

Thanks,

Chris

The e-mail I sent to DTP didn't go through for some reason. I'll try again.

Edit: Nope. :/ "Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table."

Could someone from the US buy me Brigmore Witches DLC? I have US version of Dishonored main app for some reason, and can't buy the DLCs for it. I can paypal the money if that's not a problem. The gifting method worked for other DLCs. PM me if you'd be so kind.

Thanks in advance.
