Try out the multiplayer mod if you get a chance, it was even more fun playing with friends.

Thanks, just bought it.

Thanks, just bought it.

Steam?

 

[Dog Problems]

what I hate the most with Steams implementation of free to play games is that it claims all my friends have all the free to play games making it impossible to see if a free to play game is actually worth having when looking on the games store page

That's definitely annoying.

 

[Interfectum]

Steam?

Steam.

 

[Bentendo]

Steam?

Yeah. I think the rule is that it has to be Steam for Tony to post it here.

 

[MRORANGE]

Steam?

Yes.

As in it is a Steamworks game.

 

[Enco]

Just upgraded to a 2TB HDD + SSD.

COME AT ME STEAM SALE!

 

[PaulLFC]

A shit-ton of Carmageddon DLC just got added to the registry, no idea what it actually is yet, they're all TestApps for now.

There's a demo up on Steam if anyone is curious. The kill cam stuff in this game is pretty epic when you pull off a great shot. It's worth checking out.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD is coming to the PC and it'll be Steamworks:

http://www.shacknews.com/article/74760/tony-hawks-pro-skater-hd-coming-to-pc

So it looks like Activision has fully adopted Steamworks, since Blops, Prototype 2, Transformers, 007 Legends, The Amazing Spider-Man, and Tony Hawk HD are all using it.

I wonder what this means for the supposed release of Battle.net to third parties. It was supposed to be released this year according to the product timeline leak. Does this mean that the idea is now dead?

Edit: Rewrote my last sentence.

kinda tempting, but the reviews for the game are pretty mediocre

Most of them look like garbage so they're pretty easy to dismiss on a whole. I'd rather pay 20$ for CS:GO than waste any of my time in Combat Arms or any of its ilk.

This is my attitude about them all now. If I'm going to have my ass handed to me constantly I'd rather it be in TF2, Tribes Ascend, or Dota 2 where I actually care about learning from it.

Gah...I'm starting to get nervous here. I thought I had more than enough extra cash for this sale, but I keep seeing more shit I want to buy!!

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

I'm starting to think the fifty bucks in my Steam wallet won't be enough

 

[Link Man]

Just added $50 to my wallet, $30 of which is reserved for Skyrim.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

I'm mostly ignorant of F2P on Steam. Do they ever put in-game purchases on sale for third party games? I wanna get into Tribes.

Yes, there have been instances where in-game purchases are on sale for third party titles. Spiral Knight and a few other F2P titles had these types of sales already.

 

[PaulLFC]

Ubisoft Collection just got added! Beyond Good & Evil, Splinter Cell Conviction, From Dust, Driver San Francisco, AC Revelations, Might and Magic Heroes VI and... F1 2010. The last one must be a mistake.

I wonder what this means for the supposed release of Battle.net to third parties that was supposed to happen. It was supposed to be released this year according to the product timeline leak. Does this mean that the idea is now dead?

We can only hope.

 

[KarmaCow]

They did it a couple of times for Spiral Knights and Tribes had that starter pack on sale for the first days when it launched on Steam if that's what you mean. It's all up to the developer/publisher, not Steam though.

 

[Interfectum]

LOL you remind me of myself before my first Steam sale.

"oh $50 should be enough..." lol

Not through Steam but the in-game marketplaces have sales on their microtransactions.

Which site are you seeing this on? Unless my eyes are playing tricks on me I can't see Rayman Origins on the CDR site, all the other games are there though, including F1 for some unknown reason.

 

[Nabs]

There are two. One has Rayman, the other doesn't.

No bandwidth limit baby.

Just gotta pray my bank doesn't weep too much.

 

[Razek]

I'm a bit rusty. How do the non daily deals work? As in, do you guys think Oblivion GOTY will get some kind of price cut?

Great pack and better yet I don't own any of these games on Steam. These packs are often so cunningly crafted that this rarely is the case.

 

[Enco]

I'm a bit rusty. How do the non daily deals work? As in, do you guys think Oblivion GOTY will get some kind of price cut?

Random games get cuts that stay there for the whole sale.

I would say so. I'm guessing most things will be on sale.

 

[Nabs]

Nearly everything gets a price cut. There's a good chance it will also be part of a daily franchise deal.

I remember the PC version having a game breaking glitch that they never patched.

 

[PaulLFC]

You're right. It's strange that they have two packs, Rayman isn't showing as unavailable in any countries either so it can't be for that.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

I'm a bit rusty. How do the non daily deals work? As in, do you guys think Oblivion GOTY will get some kind of price cut?

Oblivion can be a daily deal, but don't hold your breath. I would guess Skyrim will be a daily deal though, and on that particular day Oblivion and Morrowind may be 75% off as well (as opposed to, say, a regular 50% during the sale).

Your best bet, as it's been said, is to wait until Skyrim is on sale, to see if Oblivion will also go on sale. If the discount stays the same on all days of the Steam sale then you can pick it up on the last day, without banging your head against the wall if you buy it earlier and then see it -75% the next day.

Hope I was clear.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Is steam down for anyone else?

 

[Huevos de Oro]

Where did you see that THPS is using Steamworks?
