Damn, bought Settlers. It'll probably be cheaper during a holiday sale, but I really really wanted that game.

And it'd probably be the non-Gold edition
I mentioned I was looking at the Razer Onza controller earlier and I finally have some impressions: Ugh. I really wish Best Buy had these instock and I hadn't ordered from Newegg. Immediate buyers remorse. I would have taken it back immediately. The stock wired controller for 33.99 at Newegg would have been so much better.
The adjustable sticks are complete garbage. If you're considering this controller, save yourself the 10 dollars and get the non-tournament edition. What a stupid gimmick.
The d-pad is 4 separate buttons. Maybe I'll find it's actually good for something like Nimbus (which is one of the rare times I use the d-pad), but it's unlike any d-pad I've ever seen.
The buttons are VASTLY superior to the stock 360 controller (assuming they last). Mouse clicky and not hard pebbles like the stock 360. Maybe this will redeem the controller long term for me.
The analog triggers just have bad ergonomics that could have easily been improved.
OH, and the bright lights the illuminate each button? Let's just say the dude who made that thread about the Live button would have a stroke if he saw these things.

Dungeons looks slightly interesting, I'll have to give it a better looksee when I get home tonight.

Most definitely. It's supposed to be pretty good but not as good as it should be. Also, they clearly marketed it as a Dungeon Keeper clone but it's actually quite different so that may have caused confusion and turned off some people.
Then again, I'm pretty sure Tropico 3 didn't do most of it's sales at $40 either.

All three sam and max sesons for 17 bucks might just be the best deal I've ever seen on steam. Amazing deal.

Was the Settlers 7 extra content released as an expansion pack on physical media, or is it purely digital content? I have a physical copy but there's no way I could buy the dlc/exp alone through Steam without having the base copy. Does Ubisoft have a digital store? Is that something I even want to contemplate using?
I'm just trying to figure if it's worth trying to track down the extra content or if I should just rebuy this through Steam.

Needs to be Shogun 2 instead. :[
I feel like I'm the only person of everyone I know who has actually finished every Telltale episode of Sam and Max. They're such fantastic games, especially season 3, that it's sad to see practically no one actually finish them. Even though I know a ton of people actually own them on Steam through sales or whatever, they just never actually gave them a shot.
I think its digital only; Ubisoft has an online store for itjaundicejuice said:

Should I cave in and buy Settlers 7 gold?

Okay, considering I haven't even opened and installed Settlers 7, there's no point in buying it again on Steam, particularly not if I can get the dlc that functions with the version I have at some later date if I am so inclined.

I didn't even know there was more than ONE midweek madness deal. Daily deal, two midweek madness deals and the publisher week sale. wtf

Here's how to run Sam & Max Season One in widescreen resolutions.
Not the most elegant solution, and you'll see occasional weirdness (usually when the camera pans off-screen, but it's rare), but it works. All Telltale games after Season One have proper native/HOR+ widescreen support.

Are those hex values I see.
Guys, just use this patcher instead of messing around with hex values. Much more simple and took me 10 seconds to get it to work.
Ehm, no. It's not that advanced. Simply download this .exe file, put it in your respective Season One folder and run the patcher.

I'm going to need a bigger harddrive... 1TB disc at 90percent, fml.

listen to the mad man
Wouldn't mind Sam and Max.
The individual seasons are sort of a rip-off compared to the complete collection though:
Individual Seasons; $10.20 + $10.20 + $11.90 = $32.30
All three seasons; $17.00

I'd buy the entire Sam & Max collection at full price if they came with the TF2 Max bunny ears. :-(
