Serious post?

It's on sale what seems like once every month... on steam, amazon, or whatever.

lol, Yeah, I was just kidding kidding.

I just checked Steamprices, and according to them, Magika last was on sale on Steam on January 02. I was stunned that it had been that long. Feels like it's only been a couple of weeks.

So today some girl from Poland and some dude from the US asked to trade for my Witcher 2 items in TF2. How much is the set actually worth? Assuming they aren't the same person, since she asked first and TF2 stuff means nothing to me, I was thinking of trading the girl for the Be Mine Bundle when it launches.

Yea, it's Steamworks

Remedy Games' critically-acclaimed title, Alan Wake, which was initially developed and demonstrated for both consoles and PCs, with the PC version being shelved, is coming to PC in February, 2012. It is announced that the game will use Valve Steamworks as its DRM and content-distribution platform, will be available through Steam store as digital-download, and its likely hard copies will also use Steamworks. Its minimum system requirements look like this:

Not sure on face value but they seem to be items that are not available in the man co store so they are more rarer and only given to those who pre-orderd. Although some are craftable. Best ask the tf2 thread for face value.

It's 20€ on euro-Steam and 23€ (already discounted) on euro-GMG. I bought it on Steam, downloading right now, can't wait to start it tonight!

PS: I had the 360 version and was playing it when my console died of E74, fuck microsoft.

Man, for having such cool screenshots, Killing Floor videos are extremely underwhelming. I think I'll be content playing the F.E.A.R. series alone and L4D2 online.

What the shit, it's 27€ on steam here :/

Does GMG allow gifting? Or like, buying it twice then gifting the key to someone else?

I was pissed off by that the second I notice how it works, the very first game I played I got destroyed, the system decided to put all level one's together and 5 level 70 and above together, so we have guys with starter weapons versus guys with custom weapons and kill streak set ups....we got pwned, the other matches was almost the same shit but I did better because I quit and fixed my controls to how is in BLOPS...

I think the regular version won't be on steam until the 23rd, right now they're giving you the collector's for the price of the regular.

Alan Wake bought. GMG is kind of a pain since I always forget the verification code I need to use my card, but I just couldn't resist Alan Wake for $20. Gotta support my boys at Remedy.

As anyone actually received their Alan Wake Steam codes from GMG? I got my first email, but I didn't get any code with it, just "Activation keys:" and a blank space :(. I was hoping to play it before work in 2 1/2 hours.

just contact their support, i received a blank key during the skyrim sale.

sadly, i bought it when it was sleepytime for them, so it took them like 12 hours to reply. if you catch them while they are still active, you should get it really first. look up the time in UK i suppose if you wanna know if you can still catch them on duty.
