Anyway, when are those Nyu Media games coming to Steam? I want to get eXceed Collection and Cherry Tree High Comedy Club...

Apologies for the wait! The Steam releases are in Capcom's court and they are working on them now. The best answer we can give now is 'ASAP(!)'.

In the meantime, the games are available for purchase direct & DRM-free from their websites:

eXceed Collection: http://exceedseries.com/purchase-the-exceed-collection
Cherry Tree High Comedy Club: http://cherrytreehigh.com/

Thanks!

PaulLFC, that sucks! I hope this is something Valve figures out in the future.

Now as it happens I've got my own issue with Steam. I bought Toy Soldiers, and when I try to run it, I get a 'Games for Windows Live: Failed to Initialize' error message. I've never had this problem come up running any other GFWL games - any ideas?

Usually it should display a specific error message when something goes wrong with it. Did it not do that?

Or perhaps try to run the game as admin?

Try opening the GFWL marketplace and signing in before booting up the game. If that doesn't work, maybe try looking in the Toy Soldiers folder for the GFWL redistributable and see if that does anything. You might need to uninstall and update to the latest version, I'm not sure.

Anyone knows if any of these TF2 items are worth something?

I'm really tempted to pre order max payne 3, but coming out so close to D3 I don't know if I will even get around to touching it before the first sale.

 

[grkazan12]

So recently I found that I can use school's proxy in chrome and none of it counts towards my allocated bandwidth. Is there any way to run Steam through my school's proxy or to get a program to tell Steam or Windows to use the proxy or is it against the rules?

If you're setting up the connection through the control panel then all program's should use that connection.

Wherefore art thou daily deal?

The main reason I haven't preordered either. With D3 coming out so close, I'll never touch MP3 for months lol.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Weird, no DD today?

 

[SteveWinwood]

ZOMG A SAAAAAAALLEEEE

 

[scorpscarx]

ZOMG A SAAAAAAALLEEEE

Do not listen to this man.

Spoiler

lol

 

[fluffydelusions]

Lol, MW3? I'll never buy another COD again. So bored of FPS games at this point minus TF2 and L4D2 which I still have fun with.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Seems like it might be Serious Sam 3: BFE ($13.60; 66%), but that promotion is apparently available for 48 hours. (EDIT: Never mind, it was up before)

WHERE!!1!

That's been on for almost a week now because it hit Mac.

Also, be more patient people, yeesh.

 

[louiedog]

Today's deal is The Waiting Game. It will only cost you your sanity.

 

[MNC]

Hah, i got skyrim for my buds and bills.

Buds is like, 15 and bills 5. When selling dont expect to get alot just cos it's rare. I think buds/bills for skyrim is pretty decent.

Ah, okay. Everyone, resume panicking.

 

[ArjanN]

I love, really LOVE The Witcher 2 is my GOTY of 2011, but FUCK the download system of this game(on Steam)..I dont lie, i downloaded since the release like 70 or more GB...and for my third world conexion(120 kb/s) is like a torture...(remember the massive updates of steam?? in the first months of lunch?)

Why of my comment? i was like 10 GB for the last update, i pause, i close steam and I went to work, i back..and is 0% again! i restart Steam...and nothing...is the same..

Fuck this shit...GOG here I go..

I know this might be a bit late, but when your update download percentage does back to 0% that just means it's at 0% of the what you had left to download. It does resume.

Really? I gave my Bills for free to a nice gafer.

Not so nice.

It's theoretically against the TOS, but you can use a program like Proxifier to tunnel Steam connections through most HTTPS and SOCKS proxies.

The lack of a daily deal is a social experiment to see just how crazy and agitated we will get in the absence of something we expect everyday at a fixed time.

First Amazon and now Steam. The whole regimen is crumbling.

We obviously have not been rude enough about our Overlords competitors. Rabble Rabble.

I thought it was just bugged or something. Is this the end of Steam sales? :< *twitches uncontrollably*

No this time..I still download the 11 gb of the last update.. Man my conexion sucks is not hard to see the progress XD

 

[BioHazard]

Wait, what, I can sell my Hat of Undeniable Wealth And Respect for 400 buck?! Isn't it non tradeable?

Everything can be traded with some gift wrap.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I wonder if my Bill Hat is worth a Skyrim.

 

[Tambini]

No daily still?

I'm scared

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Hostage Killing Garage Simulator has been given out. Stop PMing me.

 

[morningbus]

Not by itself.

 

[Eusis]

I actually wonder if the MW3 deal has Activision pressing them to not have ANY OTHER DEALS that weren't already running, and Cursed Crusade slipped through for some reason. We'll see on Monday perhaps!

 

[Dog Problems]

I'm really wanting to play Saints Row The Third, and am so tempted to just buy it and all the DLC, but I know once I do there will be a 50% off deal or something soon.

 

[CrookedRain]

Just remember that it's a steamworks game so you can just buy it wherever it goes on sale.

It's a THQ game and they always have sales. While it's a great game and I'm not going to stop you from getting it now, it is usually on sale a lot.

Yeah, the cheapest I've found it for is $40 on Green Man Gaming. I should have jumped on that deal awhile back when it was, like, $13.50 or something crazy. I don't remember the site but the deal didn't last long.

 

[Lord British]

What should I play next, GAF? I just finished Arkham City.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Is Toy Soldiers good? It looks awesome. I think it would look even awesomer if it had online multiplayer as well.

 

[Dog Problems]

Bastion! It's not very long and was the game of the year for a lot of people. Plus it has a fantastic soundtrack.

This one speaks the truth.

Daily Deal is Pound of Ground at 66% off ($3.40).

First I've heard of it. Looks interesting..

The key features on the page actually mad me laugh out loud.

 

[Isamu Dyson]

basically i'm the only person in the world without a dota 2 beta invite,

any one of you lovely folks got a spare one for me

thanks

pm me

 

[DTKT]

Damn, Toy Soldiers is really really fun.

 

[allansm]

Rochard is a great platformer if you're in the mood for that or you want some brief game to clear from your backlog. It took me 6 hours to finish it while taking my time and looking for collectibles, so you can finish it faster than that for sure.

Damn, Toy Soldiers is really really fun.

I'm about to buy this game but I'm trying to resist as I have a huge backlog in front of me. Comments like this makes resisting a pretty hard task.
