That sounds more like a bug than a consequence of the new content system. It shouldn't impact performance. At least, I never noticed a Steam download impacting my performance.

Well, you know how it is. Can't go to battle wearing some raggedy-looking, low-res Rawhide Coat. If I'm going to die at least I shall die while looking like a medieval pimp.

I haven't owned a handheld since the days of the Gameboy Advance lol.
Half Minute Hero is great. I bought it on XBLA at launch, so I don't know if I'm going to buy it again but it is definitely worth 10 bucks.
I'm late to the party!

I'd seen this mentioned more than a few times and disabled automatic updating for Dota 2 to see it for myself, but when I updated the game about a month later, it didn't seem to do anything out of the ordinary, so I wonder if the problem is some sort of peculiar issue that affects only certain drives/types of drives (this is my current Steam drive).
Edit: I should also mention that I ran my little experiment before the particular Dota 2 patch that supposedly addressed the issue.
I'd seen a suggestion that a certain optional Windows 7 patch might fix it, but I think I held off doing that because I thought I read Steam was doing their own fix. Maybe I should hunt down the patch again.
Or maybe I should get a new machine (this is the correct answer).So apparently Everyday Genius: Square Logic rights have reverted to TrueThought.
So it may pop up again on Steam in the future.. but it looks like a case of it being removed as MumboJumbo's rights reverted to the developers, the developers contacted Steam to have it listed by them.. and then.. nothing.. :/

Unless you're playing online.

A shame. Someone was telling me how I needed to play it and then it got taken down. Hopefully it'll be back up. At the very least greenlight will be there I guess. Sucks they have to go back to the bottom and work up though. Think it'd just be straight back on.

I really hope it gets back on.
After passing it up on a bunch of sales I felt like buying it and it was no longer available.

If you quote this post (the one linked, not mine), you will see 48 beta 2Dawn keys, some of which have already been redeemed, for this website. You first need to create an account on the 2Dawn website, and then input the beta 2Dawn key on the 2Dawn website to get a beta Steam key, which you can activate on Steam.

A gaffer (cloudbot) created a tool to import tags into Jet Set Radio HD. It even supports transparent png files.

11.99 is a better price for Castle Crashers... if it had the DLC included :/

Whenever Steam became super unresponsive and everything else was going haywire I'd check if Dota 2 was being updated, and sure enough... I even tried the W7 patch that was suggested to no avail.
I should just uninstall it, I don't even play it anyhow.

Binary Domain for 7,99 with voucher GMG20-27J4Z-8NXHO @ GMG
Even less if you still have a 25% off from the recent promotion. No idea what it is in USD, should be the same.
No excuses anymore.

Sounds good to me.
Does Half Minute hero on steam, have anything similar to the multiplayer on the PSP version? I had a fucking blast playing that with friends. It was a very unique experience and quite funny when you'd deliberately let the world end, if you weren't doing as good as your enemy.
Only thing that game needed, was more multiplayer maps.

I used the voucher on JSR
If this one came out on PC I'd buy it day one, GFWL or not. I sometimes wish I had a PS3, there's a nice number of games there I'd like to play. But I can't justify getting one this late on the gen.

The regular price is $9.98, $7.99 after using the voucher.
BTW, I find it really weird that GMG displays prices in USD for me. I'm in Sweden, so shouldn't I be getting Euro prices? Not that I'm complaining, as it seems like the USD prices are a bit lower, but still!
What's this 25% off promotion?

Same here
Fez is coming. Sine Mora should be coming according to this interview with Balazs Horvath, though I doubt they'll make his timeframe given the PSV version isn't even dated yet. The game itself was delayed a bunch so I'm unsurprised, plus some kind of company split happened after the XBLA release which can't help.
It is weird that we haven't seen Shadow Complex or Scott Pilgrim. Outland would be nice too.
Man, are there any big XBLA games that aren't making it over to Steam? Even Fez and Joe Danger 2 are probably somewhere on the horizon.
EDIT - Looks like this was discussed above. Shadow Complex and Geometry Wars 2 are the big ones missing for me.

The DLC is insulting. But they did drop the price in the UK. Fairly sure it was £12 last night and now it's £10. The three pack is a fairer deal.

I don't know if PC could even save Shadow Complex's visuals. It looks awful on 360, but a lot of the issues stem from the actual assets and the way the earlier revision of UE3 was used. I'd like update to the latest revision with baked in GI to replace the old lighting, no motion blur, improved DOF, and improved assets where necessary.
Adding:
Outland
Banjo-Kazooie
Banjo Tooie
Perfect Dark
Alien Hominid HD
Beyond Good & Evil HD
Rayman 3 HD
Bloodrayne: Betrayal
Hard Cops Uprising
Bionic Commando Rearmed 2
Mega Man 9
Mega Man 10
Moon Diver
Bangai-O HD: Missile Fury

Why?
Glorious controller support. I think zdoom has this but I had a ton of issues trying to get that to launch from the Steam Doom2 shortcut.
I think it has an additional episode made specifically for it. I also think the less scrupulous among us could find the .wad file with some effort.
Why would you want to play doom with a controller? Either way the steam version is fine.
Comfy couch
The Steam version is not fine, almost everyone who plays doom on PC no must be using zdoom surely?
Wow, I love Steam.

Didn't that game get terrible reviews or am I thinking of something else?
Mainly due to its short length and unoriginality I think.
I will be there once the game hits 66-75% off.
Used the voucher and store credit on Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit. Went down to 6. Gotta love GMG.
Worth it? I never played it before, and I like the other 2D Genesis Sonic games.
