Haha, yes! Having a HDD outside the case because there's not enough slots is something I remember fondly.
I wouldn't go back to that, but I miss it in a weird way.

Double Fine is cool with the FX: Stacking costs $7.49 and 5,40. A contrario, Q.U.B.E. costs $7.49 and 6,99.
This may well convince me to buy Stacking now. I doubt a discount higher than 60% would be applied during the Summer sale. 75% at most, and it would be a difference of only one euro.
I vouch for Metro.

Not buying - those discounts are hilariously low and I've seen better prices in indie packs/steam sale.

So, Civilization scenario DLC worth it? Not really interested in the map packs
Somehow i can't get the free download to work. I click on the link, but the download won't start. Anyone else have this problem?
Which link? Free weekends make it where everyone has the game in their Steam library.
The "Click Here" link doesn't do anything for me. Tried it from both, Steam client and browser.

The scenarios tend to provide you with limited/fixed tech trees and units, so the scenario tends to differ from what you'd experience playing a regular game and even if you only play through the scenario once that's easily a few hours per scenario.
I'd say yes but then I've bought all of the Civ V DLC.

Try restarting Steam or wait until later.
There should also be a Red Orchestra 2 Free Weekend, so just try it out later and see if it's worth picking up.

Cool. I'll trade one recycled toilet paper square for it.
lol, sometimes it's more simple than you'd expect it to be... thanks, it's now in my library.
Nice, I was about to buy them from gamersgate but hesitated because I didn't know whether or not I'd be able to get them into my steam library, but now that Steam has the same exact deals I'll just get it through them.
Isn't working for me. Has anybody else tried it?
This link seems to work

Can anyone vouch for Stacking? Also a game I thought looked interesting and different and worth a try, and since it's on sale also thinking about nabbing it.

Well, the "because we may" website is wrong then. But I won't complain.

It's definitely unlocked. You may have to disable the in game vsync, but I'm not sure. There is also an FOV Slider once you're in game.
Btw, I'm pretty sure Costume Quest is no longer locked at 30. I think I had to pause the game once to shake off the lock.

Picked up fieldrunners on impulse since I like tower defence games. Anyone who knows something about it?
oh download done
*edit*
Well now I have played my first map. Took me until round 40 before I realised I could upgrade the towers lol. died at round 44. Well I did just do a simple road of death thing to try things out a bit.
Simplistic tower defence with only 6 maps but seems quite solid in it's gameplay and since I only payed 3 euros it seems well worth it.
Has achievements as well so there is more to go after then just high-score tables.

Divinity II Dragon Knight Saga loaded fine. So the developer and publisher logo showed up, and then the spinning loading icon thing on the right. Suddenly, game froze/crash and apparently a warning window appeared which closed quickly. I tried running the game again and it happens again. Any idea what's happening?

Steam was too good: a 60% discount when the website indicates a 50% discount. The error is now corrected: back to $7.49 or 6,74. Oh well, I was not fast enough. The summer sale should bring at least a 50% discount.

I pumped like 8 hours into it over the course of a day or two. I really liked it.
*Watch's this Sleeping Dogs' trailer.* Yeah, there goes my strength.

Just the same, it's a great game. I'll probably pick it up during the summer sale if any of y'all want to lose badly to me.

Any reason to believe it won't come eventually? I mean it can't be that hard to make. Maybe they're just feeling it out to see how much $$$ they make.
They probably figure releasing DLC in a staggered schedule will get people to buy more of it, because new DLC releases might get them to come back to the game again and what not.
Its neat. And lots of little things keep it going, hidden things, whimsy animations and so forth. Very much enjoyed it on Ps3 back when it came out.

You're gonna hate this news, TtR was free a few days ago on ios.

You also have the option of buying on XBLA, or using the web-based version, or buying a physical board game copy.

It's a cute game that has a lot of charm and atmosphere - but it's not a particularly robust or interesting adventure. I had alot more fun with Costume Quest.

Searching Google lead me to this:
I can't get the game to run, spinning logo in the bottom corner and then the game crashes
Do you have an Nvidia GPU?
Seems to be a problem with PhysicX, try turning the PhysicX option from "Automatic" to "processor" instead.
Going to try the online trial and decide which controls I'd like better.
thats dumb, people never learn regarding steamworks and steams ripoff pricing it seems
its cheaper on gamersgate and they do work on steam
Cool. Sent you an invite, accept it and we can sort out the details.
I have all the DLC but if you were unsure of what you want maybe start with the scenario packs they have...errr scenarios
I think you can get everything for the best price by getting like three different packs, or two packs and something individually, I forget. I think I got them all from an earlier sale, but I haven't played them yet.
