Woopsie. They used to put that message under the Buy button, not hidden away at the bottom of the screen.
Im in for 1, 3 more guys needed.

I hope this means that Funcom is going to put Age of Conan back on Steam. They took it off when it switched to F2P.
Well I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it goes free to play
We should bet ourselfs 5g's each this will happen, it's easy money! Funcom is synonymous with Failed P2P MMOs becoming more successfull with Free to Play.
eh..... it's published by EA if I'm not mistaken.

EA partners program so it's a pretty limited publishing deal and they have very little control of distribution.
Developer: Funcom
Publisher: Funcom
Pretty sure that EA's logo appears on start-up, though. I guess they are just the distributor of the game (similar to how Valve's retail output is distributed by EA).

Kind of looks interesting. Will wait till F2P version though.
This coming from Javaman, who played like 5000 hours of Dungeon Defenders!
...is there a Dungeon Defenders single-player mode that you were doing though, thus proving your point?
I've got around 260 hours logged, but only 20 or 30 were multi-player. Single player is doable for the most part except for some of the challenges.
Has anyone played Unmechanical? I'd really like to know if it's fun to play. At the very least, it has a really nice-looking style going for it.

I'm waiting on Unmechanical till I clear out some more of my backlog. I do like what I have seen.

I played the introductory level of Unmechanical. Not really enough to give an impression of it, other than it looked nice and the controls felt solid (using a pad). The opening slate of puzzles seemed promising, but I want to see how they progress.

Valve said that they'll post new information from their Linux discussion at SIGGRAPH 2012 after the discussion ends. A blog post should be going up soon.

Anyone ?
you sure you dont have something like joy-to-key opened with a button associated to a keyboard key? that happened to me more than once, lol
Anyone ?
Try unplugging the keyboard/mouse and see if the alt-tab still happens.
Disable the sticky key (the SHIFT nightmare).
Just to make sure, it's just alt-tabbing. No crash, just a random alt-tab, you can still re-launch the game?
I'd be tempted to try The Secret World if they didn't expect you to shell out $50 up front.
No way I'm spending that much just to try the game and not like it. I'd happily shell out for a 30 day subscription fee to try it and get the client for free.
Surely it won't be long and the client will be free and just paid subs anyway like most other MMOs.

The backgrounds a music are really great so far. Played for about an hour, was about to complain the puzzles were too easy, then ran into a real head scratcher.
'Spose to only be 3 or 4 hours long though.

On that point, I'm curious to see who will publish Valve next retail game. I'm betting it wont be EA anymore.
Cheers.
How the hell are the profiting from this?!
Thanks for the heads up.
£13.99 was just a hair too much for me to bite, on Dawnguard. But fuck it. I'll bite for £10.50.
EDIT: Nice! Code is reusable. Decided to bite on Sleeping Dogs too, as it's a crazy good price. Gonna be a frugal few weeks for me now =P

Not sure. The talk started about an hour and twenty-four minutes ago, so I would imagine that it is coming to an end now and then the blog post should be done shortly after.

Is GMG not giving keys for Dark Souls and Borderlands 2 yet? Bought both, but can't get the keys yet.
thanks for the heads up, caved on sleeping dogs

The question was about Sleeping Dogs, but it applies to most games they sellgmg mod said:

Thanks! Double dipped on Dark Souls at that price.
Says on the GMG page for DS that it requires a Steam account.
Well, I finally finished L.A. Noire. Kind of torn about the ending, but I'm just glad I got the job done. Time to continue with Deus Ex: HR. Also, started Darksiders a few days ago. Not exactly what I was expecting, and it's yet to blow me away, but I'll give it another chance soon.

Ah. Last time I used GMG the key was there immediately. Much thanks.
Not really, unless you really really want some more FEAR and can't for some reason play the main game.

I'm kinda surprised The Simpsons Game never got a PC release. Would've bought it in Steam.
So I found this cheap logitech PS2 wheel on my sister's house:
brought it home, used my PS2 to USB thingie, using x360ce to run it as a 360 wheel and ive been playing the shit out of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (had about 17 hours played, but havent played in quite a while).
Racer purists might think this is a sin (probably is, wheel isnt very good and between all the different connectors and stuff that im using it's probably far from an ideal experience), but im having a blast

Aw, man! I remember my dad bought some cheap logitec steering wheel, and my brother and I played NFS: High Stakes to death with it. That was the best racing-game experience I've had.
Apparently NFS is meant to be played by steering wheels
Didn't care much for FEAR 2 and haven't tried 3, but they say it's pretty decent. If you already bought them, there's worse ways to spend your time.
