This is why you need an emergency stimulus package of PP funds in the range of $30 laying around. That or have your bank or CC linked.

@Sidewinder, can't find any recent patch notes but plenty of complaints about the patching system for this game on Steam. However, my father-in-law has a standalone copy and every few years when he gets a new computer I am reminded how PITA it is to patch the game.
It has like 3 levels..
It's also a bad game, but I'll admit that my perception of it is coloured by the loathsome Portal 2 ARG levels.
Ah, I didn't have the (mis?)fortune of playing those. I don't know if I'd call it bad (though it certainly isn't GOOD) I just thought your post was interesting since the game can be 'beaten' in about a half hour.

That stupid icon and game name will be on top of your alphabetically arranged list of games FOREVER!
Maybe I'll persevere one day. Maybe.
Or this, as the more likely alternative.

There isn't a Halloween sale is there? I keep having these memories of the little steam mascots dressed in costumes but I can't remember if they have a Halloween sale or not.
There was indeed, last year.

I knew it! My memory is full of holes. At least there is something to look forward to. (Even though I own every game I want)

Really? I have 367 games according to Steam but there are at least 75 that interest me at least a bit.

Civ V Nights, a Civ V vanilla total conversion mod, adds a clock to the "Next Turn" button. Also there may be a mod to include that in Civ V vanilla in the Steam Workshop.

Indeed, Steam has really fallen behind here, no amount of hats can compare to free games.
I don't have anything to trade but could I paypal you something (fees on me) for Blood Money?

There is. CivNights is fun though too.
Windowed or a clock doesn't necessarily help with Civ though...

Old? Looks like you can get The Ship for free.

The site is being hammered, so I haven't actually tried.

Steam is really lacking behind with not giving out free games, you can find me in the Origin |OT| thread.

Entered it yesterday and got my key an hour later. Still works.
I just get "ERROR".

I managed to submit an e-mail address just fine.
Now we play the waiting game. Or in this case, I just pass the time with Dishonoured which I have been criminally neglecting.

I had to try multiple times until it worked. If you can't be bothered though, quote this post with a link to your Steam profile and the first two will get a copy of The Ship from me.
EDIT GONE
Thank you! I was very curious about this game.

I hear all EA games are going F2P? What's up with that?
Today's Daily is 50% off Digital Combat Simulation: A-10C Warthog ($19.99). The game is 18 months old and the base price is still $40? For shame.
True enough. I'm never first with things and it is an ongoing struggle. Just as I hit Submit I thought "Wait, this is just random backlog bullshit."
Anyway, some more Dead Space 2 rambling:
I just spent about 150 minutes on the final boss.
I have to beat it still.
Fucking Zealot mode is the bane of my dead space 2 existence. I was playing it all wrong though; I wanted to kill everything I found, but I soon realized I should just keep running and stasis and just... Stop wasting ammo so much. Fuck all the necromorphs. Especially fuck their 'black/stronger' variants.
Fuck you and fuck the marker.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Technically Portal was given free
Jagged Alliance: Back in Action is 75% off/$9.99 @ Gamersgate: http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-JABA/jagged-alliance-back-in-action
It's a steam key.

If only it was an EA game, we could have got it for free. Steam, you are falling behind on these trends.
This can be really useful. By the way do we have a thread for these mods/workshop thingies?

If you like sitting on your computer reading 2 different pdfs just so it takes you over an hour to take off... then ac 10 warthog is for you.
Depending on your mood, that can be genuinely fun.

Have you seen the hilarious video of a group of people starting from scratch? I think it might have been giantbomb, and then they're like...ok great, we're powered up...the engine is on fire THE ENGINE IS ON FIRE

It's this: http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-digital-combat-simulator-a-10c-warthog/17-5490/?full_site=true
It's pretty funny.
That's all I'll remember about you Mr. Winwood and that game. The minute the plane is on fire was hilarious.
