Edit: beaten lol

Anyways, I bit on this one. I think Indie Royale's offerings are gradually improving. I wonder if we'll retroactively be given Steam keys for Mutant Mudds and Basketball Belle if they're ever greenlit.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Even within Steam's prison I have to say that Origin is a decent effort and probably the only actual competition to Steam. Gifting and client customization can push that platform further and I hope they'll do those next.

only if Microsoft updated gfwl like origin is.

 

[Platy]

Basketbelle and Mutant Mudds ?

Tempting

[microtubule]

Anyone want the Avernum Trilogy? Quote to see.

Looks like a lurker snagged it.

@Leon Belmont, ohhh thanks for the heads up on free Bioshock!

Is it truly, or do they do that temporary $1 charge thing?

Any bullshit DRM on it? I´m not really fond of installing old Securom drivers on my new computers even when it´s free.

Your welcome bro!

Nop, completely free my friend!

You just need to download the Gamefly Client in order to download it, I think that 2K removed the DRM from the game (if I'm wrong please correct me)

A bundle where I don't own any of the games?!

I believe you have to use their client, but I quickly just skimmed the email.

 

[Grief.exe]

Its free but it wants me to put in my cc?

 

[Stumpokapow]

Anyone break 1,000 Greenlight ratings yet?

 

[Leon Belmont]

I bought Prototype long time ago from D2D, when it became GF once I downloaded the game, I don't need the client in order to play the game.

 

[Dice]

There are ways to circumvent that anyway. I freed my EU3 from the amazingly shitty Impulse program.

Any more impressions of Towns? I'm intrigued but the few gameplay videos I've watched make it look like a real slow burn to get going.

The feedback in the game hub makes it sound like they're selling a game that's still in beta.

:/ That's not encouraging. Especially for $15 retail.

Step up your game, Valve. I've been wanting this feature for years.

Oh wow.

 

[Stallion Free]

Probably updating the page for pre-orders to go up.

It seems now that amazon is selling steam keys for both standard version and deluxe edition of the game even though there is no mention of the deluxe edition being available on steam.

It's advertised as 50% but is actually 65% off. Might be a mistake they're going to fix soon.

 

[DTKT]

Far Cry 3 is up!

http://store.steampowered.com/app/220240/

They need to find a better way to showcase the Midweek deals. The Spotlight page on the front page is annoying when there are more than 1 deal. If anything, they should overhaul the Store front page. :\

 

[1-D_FTW]

It's advertised as 50% but is actually 65% off. Might be a mistake they're going to fix soon.

It's either a mistake or they're adding an extra 15 percent if you own Alan Wake (like they did with pre-orders).

Can anyone who doesn't own Alan Wake confirm they're only seeing 50 percent off?

 

[Glass Rebel]

It's advertised as 50% but is actually 65% off. Might be a mistake they're going to fix soon.

I think you get an additional discount from owning Alan Wake.

Interesting. I wonder what inner Steam workings Valve has in the pipe that we don't know about yet?? The community/greenlight stuff is nice but more is needed.

people not posting when hidden codes are taken..not cool man, not cool. the other one is gone too

Nice, I'm a fan of the old DOS game, and I wanted to try the remake.

Ubisoft AU earlier in the year:

“All I will say today is that it’s about market forces,” said Fong, “and I think I mentioned this last year. If the consumer has a choice to buy overseas for half the price, they will vote with their wallets — and local businesses, including publishers, distributors and retailers will be forced to re-evaluate. Every company in this room has to make a choice when it comes to their pricing policies.

According to Ed Fong, Ubisoft has already attempted to “re-evaluate” its own pricing.

“I can only comment on Ubisoft here, but we’ve already readjusted our recommended retail price recently for Ghost Recon. We’ve also just announced our pricing for Assassin’s Creed III, and we really want to put a message out there. Whether the consumers will think that’s good enough, or not good enough, time will tell.

“Every business person has decisions to make with pricing. We need to compete.”

Me earlier in the year:

Edit: I won't be convinced that Ubi is fighting for change until I see AC3 up on Steam without the Aussie Tax. Call me cynical, but the publisher's biggest release of the year is the test it needs to pass.

Now:

&

I award Ubi's commitment to its word an F.
