The demo doesn't support multiplayer, but it seems like it would match that description. The dev team has roots in tabletop and board gaming and it shows.xyla said:
Haven't tried it for Steam downloads, but it should work just fine as long as you have another system outside of the firewall to SSH into. Just forward TCP ports 27014 to 27050, like so:Cindres said:
ssh -L 27014:127.0.0.1:27014 -L 27015:127.0.0.1:27015 <and so on...> sshUser@sshServer
Remember, though, that the SSH server must not have the port restrictions.

I got screwed when the beta removed the multiple categories. I should really reorganize with more meaningful categories.

It seems like Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction had a price drop in the last week or two. The regular edition is $39.99, the Deluxe Edition is $44.99, and Elite Echelon Edition is $55.99. I'm tempted to get the Elite Echelon Edtion, but I wouldn't be surprise if an upcoming sale brings it down to $19.99 to $29.99 range.
What could possibly be under Garry's Mod besides the game itself?John said:
any more categorization than this would drive me nuts. i would never do anything else.
Edit: Just noticed; the GAMES category are uncategorized games. so don't blame him
Ew, thought I'd try the snipping tool for once. Turns out it leaves an ugly border
Mostly lack of fast travel, but also driving.John said:
E---C---A---B---D
Basically this is the pattern of movement as you play the DLC, as far as I can tell, with a couple of detours. I quit before I had to go to F. And driving is terrible and not fun and also terrible.
Why are you asking if you hate Borderlands? U:
Are you not American? Is the alphabet taught in a different order in other countries and/or languages, even if they use the same alphabet? I thought it was pretty simple but if the answer is yes to both of those questions, well, then, well.John said:
start with a
then go to b
then go to c
then to go d
then go to e
i stopped before f but it was the same pattern
Essentially, you go back and forth and back and forth, only the backs and forths get larger every time.

:lol Civ5 is my first game in the series and I've already missed a few meals this week.lowlylowlycook said:
It's does what it says on the tin and is fairly addictive. The subtle strategy changes from map to map based on how close you are to your opponents, how many monsters and resources there are, and number of turns before the end have given each game I've played a different feel. More monsters and it feels like a turn based dungeon crawler where you keep your party close together and move throughout the map. More resources and you can spread your team out a bit and go for the minerals.charlequin said:
You get to choose the composition of your party at the start. There's a miner, who can carry more gear, a fighter who can deal and take more damage but not move as many tiles per turn, and a scout who can move more tiles per turn. I haven't played a heap of games to figure out if there's an optimal load out, but I'd imagine it would change from map to map.
There are all sorts of additions I could think of, the most obvious being online multiplayer, but having played five hours already and wanting to play more I've easily gotten my money's worth already. It's nice to have another good local multiplayer game for PC too. If you regularly play local multiplayer games, it's a no-brainer.

Is NBA 2k11 still slated for PC? I wonder if there will be a preorder up on Steam for it.

Pretty boring:
I just want to make a comment about the steam service:
Over the last couple weeks all the games I've been playing have been via steam's service. I am extremely grateful to steam for one particular feature that has changed my gaming experience for the better:
The Steam browser!!
That's right...Seriously, this is a *FANTASTIC* addition to the service!!!!! I cannot tell you how many times I've been bored in a multiplayer game in between matches, either waiting for the match to load or in a lobby waiting for players to ready up. Now, with the browser I simply press a key start reading my favorite forums or watching vids on youtube. This literally makes waiting for something in a game a non-issue! Try doing *THAT* on a home console, kids!! Very very convenient.
Now if only they'd add a bookmark feature I'd be SET!

I bought it yesterday in a "heck why not" mood and I can second this. It is a really great game with a few flaws, but it should be perfect for hot seat multiplayer.
Few things that should be patched:
- If you are playing in 1080p you´ll have to play in window mode, because the game has no resolution option. Have to try out if 720p switches to fullscreen.
- The 360 Controller implementation works but could be better: A few times in the tutorial the game lost track of the controller as an input divise. A click with the mouse and it worked again. And the Analog stick input is way to sensible.
Hmm.. a netbook or a phone could be used for that in console gaming.isamu said:I just want to make a comment about the steam service:

I read that you can't save in it? Anyone know if this is true?
Seems like a cool game but if you can't save what is the point

Good thing I'm in class all day. I have NyxQuest pre-ordered and it would be torture waiting for Steam to come back so I could DL it.

Perhaps try posting in the steam gift thread, someone might be able to sort something out for you. I'm certainly hoping that to be the case whenever this apparent Ultimate Edition of Dragon Age comes out.

Anyone in here buy Chime yet? It's only $5 and I'm thinking about it. Yet I heard there were some technical issues at launch?
