It happens to the best of us. I used to have some fantastic categories, but they got nuked for some reason. You aren't a true Steam user until you've set up a bunch of categories that were reset just because.
Then I shall graciously accept my baptism.

I will miss my 'Games With Fucking Horses In' category.

Everyone, and I mean everyone, should try PC Gamer Digital, which finally gone worldwide. The first (it's zero actually, but who cares) episode is free.
Ghost download for me, I don't know if it's progressing but it won't show in the library, under tools, in downloads nor anywhere else :(

Try opening the pcgamer client and clicking on the issue, then the download or whatever selection. That should kickstart it.

Same here... I just see progress whenever I restart Steam, every time the blue bar is a little longer :lol

Also, it's sucks the first episode is not 50% off now. I'd have bought it for the TF2 hat :(

Client is nowhere to be seen. Now when I click on download from its page it doesn't even start the download. At least the ghost download entry disappeared :/

EDIT: oh, ok, I think you might be referring to starting the exe directly from the common folder. I did it and the client starts just fine, but it still won't show on my library :(
By the way where does it show normally? With the other games or in tools?

Hate to say this but i have an itch for Deus Ex: Invisible War. I don't care how bad it is, Its the only one i haven't played. I love the setting of the series.

I downloaded the PC Gamer app thing, doesn't show up on my Steam list. Hmmm.
You might have to restart Steam. It took me like 5 tries to get it to go away when I wanted to uninstall it as well.

Damn stupid issues, I thought they'd be gone by now but they are not. I see Counter Strike between Alien Swarm and Alpha Protocol, and see a "Steam Client" game that asks for an install. Also, the icon on the taskbar is showing as if it was downloading something. =/

I'm so confused by the timeline Steam is using. It's still showing Tuesday deal but it's thursday for me.
It's 10AM Valve(U.S. west coast) time whenever new daily deals expire/start.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

I didn't figured that it was so late.

If you think it's confusing now, just imagine if you are in a timezone that is randomly ahead by 30 minutes!

I hope today's daily deal is Arkham Asylum.

No particular reason why. I just need to re-play it and don't own a copy on Steam yet. Gabe, you have the power to save me the better part of £15 and stop me spending that just to suppress my intense desire for Arkham City.

I can't imagine Arkham Asylum going on sale until after Arkham City appears on the Steam store. Also, if WB have any sense they'll bundle Asylum with City pre-orders - "Pre-order Arkham City and play Arkham Asylum now, for free!" or some such.

Which is why I just gave up and went to the installed/uninstalled method. Not as elegant as folders, but it keeps things organized in terms of what I haven't beaten/played/like and those I don't care to have listed in my library.

Aye, you're right. It was very much a blind hope of saving some money rather than genuinely thinking it was going to be todays daily.

Saying that, there is SOME hope for me. Since last night when I last almost bought it it's dropped down to £10 from £15. BRILLIANT.

According to the store page Red Faction 2 doesn't work on DX 10 cards.

Anybody know if it'll work on a GTX 560 ? Edit :Bought it, I'll let you all know if it works in a few minutes.

Too bad I don't have the money for Armageddon. That's a pretty nice price considering the age.
