Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I wouldn't be surprised if it is an almost automatic thing, with the number of complaints in the forums and the (probable) number of requests for a refund.
I think they have to leave it up for the people who already bought it.

I wonder if they'll bring it back as a "coming soon" title with instant alpha access.
I don't know. The Outrun 2: Coast-to-Coast page seems to be gone. And I have the game.

I don't think that's required. The few games I have that are no longer sold on Steam don't link to a store page anymore, just the home page.

So, uh...
How's that "You Need A Budget" software? I need some good budget software, anyone used it?

Maybe Steam should do a quick "End of the world" sale right before starting the Winter sale? 95% Off on all games, it's now or never!!!!!
There is no special version. just an omission.
Will wait for 99% off

I can empathise. I sold my PS3 editions of the game in preparation for the full glory of Dead Rising 2 in 1080p 60fps (not to mention the PS3 versions were horrible), only to find that Capcom had priced them ludicrously high in the UK Steam store; both were £19.99. My rule of thumb is if I can pick it up cheaper in CEX or GAME on a console, I won't buy it for PC. I really hope they get a sales discount, as I was halfway through my PS3 playthrough before I aborted. Would love to pick it up again, whilst it's still fresh in my memory.
Raided the last of my GAME cards (had 7.65 across 2 of them) to add another tenner to my steam wallet. I'll go into this sale with £110. I expect to leave with nothing (well, apart from a backlog of games which I'll never get through).
While the actual game data remains so existing owners can continue to install the game at their leisure, store pages are eventually pulled if the game shows no signs of returning. See: Prey.

It's good but pretty basic.
Hey guys, I'm on a dilemma right now. I bought The Last Remnant on Gamersgate yesterday, I really liked it when I played it a while back. The thing is, the loading times suck in my pc (it's actually a widespread bug with some dual core machines, fixed on Windows Vista, not on Windows 7)s, I've stumbled on lots of possible fixes, like setting the affinity of the CPU to just 1 core and everything, none fixed the issue. So today, browsing orkut (I know), I found a guy talking about how the cracked .exe has better loading times, I downloaded it to test, and it really is way better than the original one, loading that sometimes took me 20-25sec, now are done in 3-4sec. What I want to know is if it is safe for me to use the cracked exe, even if my game is all legal. Can I lose my account, the game or anything related??
I don't know, but they are definitely targeting the right group of people by selling it on Steam
I wonder if Sleppy Dawgs will ever get a GOY edition with all DLC, and if I should just wait for that instead of buying it this Winter Sale.
Those are the hard choices I'm presented with on a daily basis.
You're fine. Just don't "verify game cache" on Steam, because it will overwrite your .exe file.
Which just means you'll have to re-replace it. No biggie.

No, you won't have your account restricted for using a cracked executable. So long as you're not cheating online in a VAC game, Valve couldn't care less about (or even know) what you do with a game's files.
I highly expect Sleeping Dogs to be dirt cheap during Amazon's Editor's Choice sale in January, when all of those $5 credits we got last month can be used.
I'm going to wait on that and X-Com unless they get (very unlikely) 75% off sales during the dailies.

It's one of my favorites out of the series. I bet it plays lovely with a mouse.

It'll never be back, Jase. You missed out on owning the Stalin vs Martians of our generation.

I expect the "best" discount to be on the first day of the sales. But I don't know on which game yet, I bet one of these:
- far cry 3 -33%
- black ops II -75%
- football manager 2013 -33%
- assassin's creed III -33%
- borderlands 2 -75%
- xcom -50%
- the walking dead -66%
- hitman absolution -33%
- dishonored -50%
- dark souls -66%
- train simulator 2013 -50%
Not with that attitude.

tomorrow right?

Ha, sounds right up my alley. I haven't done any research yet, because it was simply seeing it on Steam that made me think, "I really need budget software."
If it is basic, is it good value for the money? Are there any free or cheaper alternatives that are also pretty basic? I'll have to dig around some more myself. I bet the first thing the software tells you when it opens up is "DO NOT BUY RANDOM THINGS ON STEAM"...
Classic non-pology.
"We're sorry for your reaction, because we didn't actually make a mistake."
Yeah, ~23 hours from now.

Supposedly they did. Someone mentioned that another game that they dev'd is already on the store.
omg...that game? I was thinking more along the lines of a confidence inspiring track record.
That's another game you'll never get. Sad day indeed

Steamprices lists the game for $20 on one specific day (August, 30th 2012). It must be a bug then.
My guess then is one of these will be up for tomorrow:
And the most likely would be either xcom or dishonored with a 50% discount.

What do you have against Big Rigs? It looks more entertaining than 99% of Greenlight games.

Valve's statement above says the removal is temporary... although, its reinstatement is contingent upon providing an adequate build and who knows if the devs are up to the task.
