Looking at my community page, Biohazard bought it and got 8 out of 12 of the achievements in 0.6 hours. :lol

Haha yeah they are pretty easy. The game is definitely so much more fun with a mouse, I have it on my iPhone as well. So it's a pretty fun little game for 5 bucks, one game mode, like 8 or so levels, and leaderboards/achievements, but def better with the mouse, still the right balance of challenging and addicting haha.

Zen Bound was a PC game long before it was an iOS game.

Before iOS even really existed, I think. My memory that far back all kind of blurs together, though, so I could be wrong.
 
Does anyone know when the thanksgiving sale is going to start?

I've been smart and bought everything that I could think of so that now Steam can't trick me into buying more stuff when the big sales roll around.

That'll show em!


Anyone who was looking at this "Clones" game that came out yesterday, there's a demo on their website:

Haven't tried it yet.

Wow, this new "Recommended for you" feature is weird. Based on my recent playtime in "Deus Ex" Steam recommended me.... "VVVVVV". :lol

It's probably based on "people who bought x also bought y".

Can't see myself using this feature- I usually talk to the people I trust about game recommendations. Not browse Amazon style.

No, but soon.

Supposed to be able to pre-order it for ten bucks instead of the full fifteen, but I can't find anywhere to do that. Not even at the Super Meat Boy website! (I may or may not be blind.)

Preorders start November 23rd on Steam.

Hmm

COD: World at War complete and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit complete were added to the registry. Either these two will receive a price reduction or its possible Valve is getting ready for their Thanksgiving sale. Also Shogun 2 Press beta was added to the registry.

I bet it'll come in handy during those massive sales.

Hmm, I confused Hot Pursuit with Shift. No, I don't think its the old one. Isn't the old one called Need for Speed 3: Hot Pursuit? This is just Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit. Perhaps its coming and EA Just doesn't want to say so right now in order to get people to purchase it elsewhere.

Some folks have access to the client registry tool which is what Valve uses to add new games to their system ;)
So, you love Steam so much that you basically, well, stalk it?

man i am so glad they put in this community reviewing/tweeting feature
The potential for passive aggressive recommendations is pretty vast. "Oh, I see you have Prince of Persia 08. I think you would also like this game."

edit: Nevermind, it looks like they apply across your entire friends list. That could get kind of spammy.
