Would double dip on Castle Crashers, wouldn't be suprised if it was just BattleBlock though.

Haven't heard shit from them about their new game in a long time. Bet it's that.

Are any of the Worms games on Steam worth it? They're on sale on GMG and can be activated on Steam.

Yeah, they require Steam to play. Says so on the page.

GoG Fallout is completely DRM free. I have that version too. Download it, back it up. If GoG ever bites the dust or locks you out(lol not happening). Your copy is still playable.

I think he meant like compatibility-wise and actual modification to the game files. Not the super obvious.
I played them somewhat recently and I thought so. The interface is pretty shitty since it's so small but the game itself is still great.

But are they good? Worms Reloaded looks tempting.
Also, you get the soundtrack
I enjoy worms reloaded with friends, and some dlc pack r good.
I not a pro worms player

Reloaded is fun, still don't think it's as good as the earlier ones (Armageddon) but if you've never played Worms before I'd say Reloaded is a good starting point
The Haunted Hells Reach is on sale at gamersgate for $4.99 and activates on Steam with achievements. The 4 pack is $14.96.

I'd get in on a 4 pack if someone hosts.

Thanks, I may get this. Last time I played a Worms game was like 5 years ago and for 10 minutes. It looks like a good oportunity to finally try this.

I can't connect to Steam servers on login, why Gabe why? :'(
Well, I kinda figured that! I'm well aware that Steam's DRM. Stallion Free's right in that I meant compatibility-wise, not the super obvious "Steam is DRM, while GOG is DRM-Free" bit. Looking at my Steam library, I actually only have two games that are available on GOG that I don't have a DRM-Free version of... Unreal Tournament and Syberia 1, both of which I got for an extremely cheap price. I do have the Geneforce Saga, Psychonauts, and the two 2D Oddworld games on Steam, but since I've got them in Indie Bundles, I have the DRM-Free versions as well. I also have Postal 2 Complete on Desura, which I think is DRM-Free, but I'm not completely sure about that.
So yeah, I do know of the virtue of having DRM-Free games... I just won't go out of my way to avoid a great deal on Steam. I think I've said this many times already, but my feelings are that if a game must have DRM, it should have Steam's. All things being equal, I will get the DRM-Free version of a game before even a Steam version.
I'm amused that you think you'd be able to round up 3 other suckers to get in on that deal. I vaguely remember playing this game when it was still a free UT3 mod...I can think of at least 3 other zombie co-op shooters that'd be more worth your time.

Have you played it already? Would be nice to get somewhat detailed impressions if you have.
I kind of want to get it but I just bought the Unwritten Tales the other day which I'm planning to play after I wrap up a couple of games I'm going through right now. Probably going to wait for a sale on Deponia.

Getting a GTA III feel from the caricatures. Love it. Feel like I should finish Yakuza before I buy another Japan urban asian city simulator
That's insulting. Just based on the Youtube vid the game looks cool, so really for $3 and change you needed to flex your superiority?

Sleeping dogs OT is up, if you get it on Steam before the release date you get the Triad Bundle for TF2 which costs $19.99/£15.99 - of course you can craft them or get them at drops.
It's in 3D wooooaaaaaaahhhhh!!!

The Sleeping Dogs items don't drop in TF2 (yet), so the only way to get them is to either craft them or buy them (or buy Sleeping Dogs).
4 people wasting their money on a game with a dead community is worse than 1 person. I probably came off too abrasive, but I think I'd be a little annoyed if I were considering getting in on the 4-pack without the prior experience I've had with that game, and no one warned me about the sort of defunct state of the game.
I'll try to put it in less offensive terms next time

Modding in waifus is serious business bro.
It's $59.99 -- master race is better than that!
I usually don't pre-order digital games this early unless there's a major limited time discount etc.
Also, no hats.

Just finished Witcher 2...holy shite GAF, what a game. What am I going to play from my backlog now? I think I feel like a decent FPS, might give RAGE a go?

Console tax, no pre-order discount and no pre-order bonus. Oh, sorry, they give you Arx Fatalis, the Steam version doesn't work or didn't last time I installed it.

Needs more TF2 hats.
Guns Of Icarus Online Pre-Order 25% off.
Available in 4-packs CE which is cheaper than the regular version.

Hats are dumb. Master race is dropping the ball by continuing to support skyrim over better stuff.
Dawnguard is already out and Dishonored is a $60 game that's 2 months away, why would it be topping the charts?
You are so bitter. There is literally no guarantee that Dishonored will be any good. I'm extremely skeptical of the AI and the variations in missions. That's not even mentioning the story.
Probably because most people have Skyrim already, and this is only $20 as opposed to $60.
Doesn't mean they have "shit taste".
I have Dishonored pre-ordered

Might and Magic Clash of Heroes is on sale at the Gamestop client. Seems to be steam redeemable as well.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It ain't easy having standards that make you hate indie games and big budget games.
Hey there's still plenty I'm looking forward to playing for the rest of this year and next year, all big budget games too (probably?). It's just the dumbed down ultra casual stuff like Skyrim that I hate.
