It just reached #3 on the top sales list, at $10, so I'm going to mark it down as "better than $60 Modern Warfare 3" since that's at #4.

If it holds the #3 sales spot between two $60 games, I'd say it's doing okay. A free weekend later on, perhaps at the same time that the Steam workshop stuuff is integrated, could revive interest in it.
I did not catch whether it was pure multiplayer, but if it is, I assume it will suffer the fate of most indie multiplayer games (they die due to not being TF2).
There doesn't seem to be any sort of official thread on it here, so if anyone DOES like it, feel free to make one.
*edit* It just passed Skyrim and is now at #2.

The goofy niche stuff usually does pretty well (mount & blade for example), so it could be fine. It's definitely pre mature to call anything now.

Are we really going back in time to help the south win the civil war?
And, it's now #1 on Steam top sellers, even at $10.
I feel bad for the guy. He was posting on the Steam forum in reply to a guy that was complaining about bugs and lag and saying not to get the game. He seemed to be polite about it, and saying that if people can give him good feedback, he can keep making the game better...but he was like, you get what you pay for at $10, to an extent, and he openly admitted he was really sick of working on the game after doing it for a year.
All in all though, he seemed pretty polite and apparently planned to keep working on it, so I hope he doesn't burn out by reading the Steam forums.
Whoa, we're almost at 10,000 posts up in here.

Sounds like a future summer Blockbuster movie.

Finally got this thanks to the daily deal. Really liking it!
If you played Zuma/previous Luxor games, it's the same thing, only the pace is faster, with great graphics/effects and achievements.
It will run on very small batteries.
So I have been itching for something new to play and I really like Risen. So which of the older gothic games is worth playing?
Or any other similar games?
Asking here since they are all on steam
Gothic 1 and 2 are excellent. Combat may be a tad wierd at first but once you get into it, it's ok. Don't get Gothic 3 (only if you really like the universe), and for the love of everything don't get Gothic 4. Just don't do it.
The first three Gothics are all worth playing, though the community patch for Gothic 3 is required. Don't bother with Gothic 3: Forsaken Gods or Arcania: Gothic 4. Gothic 3 is the most ambitious, but the initial release was extremely flawed. I like the atmosphere of the original the best, but Gothic II has some really great quest design, with multiple solutions to many of them.So I have been itching for something new to play and I really like Risen.

I was hoping someone could gift me the Heroes of Might and Magic for $25 from Gamefly...

Fieldrunners (http://fieldrunners.com/) and Toy Soldiers (http://www.signalstudios.net/games) were added to the registry. Toy Soldiers might be a GFWL title.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's realtime. Might be interesting.

PixelVision.
Newest version (1.8.1) is from the 15th of March. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1914848
As I have learned recently, you may need to switch back to steams default skin to make purchases from Paypal or any other service that launches a window. But once the skin is installed that is as simple as going to Steam options, changing the skin to default, and restarting Steam.

Legend of Grimrock looks a lot like the Lands of Lore games.

What resolution are you planning on playing at?
1080 preferably.

Has it ever been said to what kind of numbers are being moved when being #1 on the sellers list? I know it's a moving target, but even a general window would be cool.
Ys all the way. It's a fantastic game.

Age of Empires Online is now available (Am I late to report it?). Lots of DLCs, but no packs.
There's a bundle with all the important DLC at 66% discount:

Thanks I didn't see that and I was about to buy each civilization for 5$.
Yeah, I didn't see it at first also, it's in the specials tab, it's randomly appearing and disappearing there, at first it even only had 2 or 3 civs and the defense booster pack, but now it has all 4 civs, the defense booster pack and the skirmish pack. Steam being buggy, I guess...
