Yes, we shall.

That's... that's a lot of people.

You need to screenshot the "press Q R F W R Z BACKSPACE SPACE ESCAPE R F H E to jump" screen, or whatever it was.

I can't wait to play Metal Gear Rising, only on Steam OS. Slicing as only haptic feedback can provide.

Oh, found it.

Such a natural hand position required I don't know why more games don't use it.

 

[More_Badass]

thx. screenshots look amazing.

Interesting in your impressions. I had been intrigued by the game, but the reviews killed any interest

 

[zkylon]

Whatever you're doing, it must be working!

it's weird, I don't usually win much stuff but I won like 4 games in a week out of random entries and now I feel guilty and don't pm moddy too much

except when I miss him

Same, i kinda feel bad sometimes.
at least i give something back in return whenever i can.

totes

hoping there's a couple nice sales to give a couple cool games out

 

[Eternia]

Or at least threaten it with messages containing unicode. That usually throws a wrench into its plans!

Seeing the griffin in Lord of the Rings reminded me that Dragon's Dogma still isn't out on steam :/ It has to happen at some time right? Really is one of the most ambitious, weird, and best games of the last decade and it deserves a proper framerate.

I still hold hope.

 

[Miguel81]

About Outrun 2006 CtoC. Is SEGA ever going to put it back on Steam? I love that game, but I don't buy hard copies anymore.

Edit: And another missing game Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow. Is Ubisoft waiting for someone else to fix the lighting issues like with the first game?

Yeah. I played this thanks to PS+ and while the game was really interesting, that framerate really dampens the experience. I don't know if I'd double dip though, I've seen most all it had to offer.

I guess platinum-ing the damn thing despite terrible performance is a sign that I rather enjoyed the content, otherwise.

I'm hoping Konami striking gold with reobtaining the Saw licence will give other publishers similar ideas, but more likely is that it won't reappear unless Sega puts another racer into production with Ferrari vehicles.

Thanks, I didn't know it had to do with the Ferrari License.
Sonic All-Stars Transformed w/DLC will make me nostalgic for Outrun, I know it.

Sven left, the dream is dead

One thing I really want to see happen is a moddable dragon's dogma, the game has its problems, but mods would really help fixing the balancing and add a lot of replay values.

Capcom must be blind. Have they not seen how well DS has done on PC(and with gfwl, no less).

 

[Camel Master]

Oh, I went and bought Bundlebandits bundle without noticing that the game that I wanted from it - Puddle - wasn't in there anymore. Well it was only 0.75$ for some Desura keys (already had Dead Hungry Diner).

 

[NingenJanai]

Help me guys, should I get the GOG pack?

I'm afraid if I get it then I might start buying games from GOG, and I spend enough as it is with Steam

It's Capcom. They could do it, but that would make too much sense.

The D&D pack?

I mean c'mon, you are getting a pack that is full of some of the best RPG's of all time. Seems like a no brainer to me.

 

[NingenJanai]

The D&D pack? I'd recommend it seeing as Hasbro has shown no intention of bringing them to Steam.

 

[denx]

Purchased.

I'm happy and sad at the same time.

you dun good

Now you can be on the way of buying games on GOG to have the DRM-free copies and then double-dipping on Steam to brag about your purchases and play time to your friends!

 

[Tellaerin]

I'm hoping Konami striking gold with reobtaining the Saw licence will give other publishers similar ideas, but more likely is that it won't reappear unless Sega puts another racer into production with Ferrari vehicles.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I wouldn't mind if they went ahead and rereleased Outrun 2006 with some genericized sportscar models in place of the Ferraris. Outrun's not a racing sim, so they don't handle like real Ferraris anyway, and the fact that I was supposedly driving a Ferrari in the game meant nothing to me (or anyone else I know, for that matter). Give me some sexy Ridge Racer-esque fictional sportscars instead and I'd be totally content.

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

Got an early Christmas present in the form of an Amazon gift card, so I just bought myself Dishonored.

Holy damn, I can actually play this game.

Holy damn, I can actually play this game, and it's really flipping good.

I might have a more coherent analysis when I wipe this grin off my face and stop playing for a bit.

Question for Steam GAF!

I've been playing Saints Row IV- picked up the Season Pass for cheap, and wanted to play the DLCs! They showed up as quests, but now when I load the game one of them doesn't show and I get a message saying "Some of the previously installed DLC is missing." When I go the Christmas DLC page, it doesn't say I own it. But the Dominatrix page does?

How do I re-download Season Pass content?! Strangeness indeed!

 

[Knurek]

Farming more card money in preparation for Seal. $20 so far.

You done good, volvo, you done good. I just wish there was some way to exploit foil drop rate (known only to me, obviously).

Verify the game's cache: Right-click -> Properties -> Local files -> Verify integrity of game cache.

Stick it to the man has cards too, and will be on sale once the Seal begins, so you could buy it, play it and finish it as it's a rather short but fun game, and then sell off the cards for a RoI.

This was totally the first thing I tried, and nothing :/

If I re-install it completely, will I lose my save files? I think they've been syncing online, but I always seem to have strange issues re-installing!

Also, when checking the DLC tab (after checking the Local files) it shows that I own the Season Pass, and a couple other things but not the Christmas shindig! Sheeeeeeit.

EDIT: Well damn, there's a forum topic on it on Steam hub! Lemme explore- thanks for the suggestions JaseC!



For all those wondering (from the the Steam topic):

Thanks for the info. It does sound like it's a problem for all regions, and we are looking into it. Thanks for being patient while we get things sorted out.

 

[Knurek]

so you could buy it, play it and finish it

I don't understand, what's this 'play' thing you mention? Isn't that word verboten in the Steam thread?

 

[Tizoc]

I don't understand, what's this 'play' thing you mention? Isn't that word verboten in the Steam thread?

That's how you get cards you can then sell in the market so you get some cash back to add more games to your Steam list~

Ah, it seems the Christmas DLC wasn't supposed to be included in the Season Pass, or perhaps it was removed in error:

about 10 hours ago Removed Saints Row IV - How the Saints Save Christmas from the package

 

[Knurek]

Why would I do that when gib.me/sam exists?

That's so true it almost hurts (><)

Thats dangerous,its might temp you to actually play the games,the correct way is minimize and wait.

I did, also realized I had Broken Sword 1 on gog, have no clue how or when I got it.

gog gives many free games, may be that's how you got it? Although I don't remember Broken Sword being free..

 

[DocSeuss]

Huh. Worked fine for me last night. Only had three main missions. Kinda dull. Saints Row IV's DLC's been a massive letdown after the reasonably substantial Clone DLC from Saints Row: The Third.

I want typing of the dead but i will control myself and i will protect the content of my wallet until it is the right time!

Last remnant is a good game though,good price,but its also hard to understand its mechanics,i never did.I am not sure why i liked it.

Holy jeez, Chivalry Deadliest Warrior $3.75 (steam redeemable)

Lowest it's been on steam is $11

 

[scotcheggz]

Anyone have any impressions of FATE? I just saw its on steam, it looks like an old skool isometric dungeon crawler. I can't seem to find much info about it though and the trailer didn't show much outside of characters walking.

Protection is too hard to achieve with all winter sales going, close to impossible. (><)

The Last Remnant is a great and huge game. I wish people would give a chance to it, it takes time, but it's so satisfying game when you get the hang of it. Especially for that price.
Random can drive you mad, and crafting is frustrating and insanely expensive, but battle system and generals and their side quests are worth it.

I need to get back to that. I played a few hours into it and enjoyed what I played, but then I got distracted with some other games and haven't gone back to it since. ^^;

 

[Chairmanchuck]

I kinda liked the Christmas DLC better than the Enter the Dominatrix one. The Dominatrix one was totally lazy, using Artworks as cutscenes...

But both of them were far too short. I finished each in like 45 minutes.
