He means like a mark on the picture before you click on anything.
Civ V is Steamworks, it doesn't even work without Steam (including DLC of course).
Same! I would love more board games on Steam
I want Chess Online on steam with Steakworks and all them goodies.
Yeah, for something like Civ that has 11 DLC's, it's a huge pain to go to the page for this DLC and then back and then check the next DLC and then back and etc.
I can't even imagine what kind of nightmare it is buying Railworks DLC (it has 107!)
Although this isn't entirely accurate as I found out today with one of the Civ DLC. Just add all the DLC to your cart and then view the cart it tells you what you already own there.
I did that once when I was buying all the Civ 5 DLC the last time it was on sale and it lied to me!
Yeah, there are Civ V DLC combo packs that aren't on the game page, you have to search. For everything the cheapest way:
- Korea and Wonders of the Ancient World Combo Pack
- Denmark and Explorer's Combo Pack
- Polynesia
- Spain and Inca
- Babylon
- Cradle of Civilization Bundle (apparently just a bunch of crappy maps)

Indie Game: The Movie - $8.99 (-10% off)
Expensive... I'll wait for it to hit netflix
Werid, the strategy guides and even the Portal book made some sense but a full movie
Also 4GB file size for a 1080p means its either not very long or very compressed.
Steam starting to do movies
Wait for Prometheus being on Steam. Your movies. Everywhere. Only add a streaming option and tada, you can play your favorite movies at every PC ever.
I assume it will start when the new content gets released, which I think should be soon.
Make sens...
Sweet! I was on the fence about buying it so now I'll have a chance to try it for myself.

Is this actually being released in stores at all in physical form? I noticed on the official site you can pre-order a physical copy but I'm wondering if that's the only way to get it.

This just occurred to me, but It would be really mind blowing to see movies with achievements. Like one for watching the whole movie, the credits and one for writing a review.
I'm not saying they should do it, but It would be funny to see how achievements hunters react to this.
What I'm wondering is if the movie will be only available in the Steam video player or if it's actually gonna be a a standard video file in your steamapp folder...
Will they use steamwork DRM for the movie? lol
So is this what the barren, empty "Media" part of my Steam library is going to be used for?
Shit, I really hope this never happens. I found myself hunting achievements for a few hours on this site (http://www.codecademy.com/courses), doing courses way under my level, like creating an array or something.
My lack of free will when faced with gamification is very scary...
That's not so bad. Maybe you'd enjoy learning stuff at khanacademy.org, a new language at memrise.com, or raising rice for the World Food Programme at freerice.org.
And the discovery of that rice site marks the day zky's left GAF for good...That's not so bad. Maybe you'd enjoy learning stuff at khanacademy.org, a new language at memrise.com, or raising rice for the World Food Programme at freerice.org.
edit: fuck you very much, I have now wasted 2 hours trying to learn the russian alfabet
this is fucking cool. seriously, thank you for sharing this.

How is Gratuitous Space Battles and/or Tank Battles? Worth the cash or wait for sale?
Steakworks sounds delicious.
Oh wow, bookmarked. Not sure whether I should be happy or worried after seeing those...That's not so bad. Maybe you'd enjoy learning stuff at khanacademy.org, a new language at memrise.com, or raising rice for the World Food Programme at freerice.org.

I don't know if its really a platformer, but I thought Sonic Generations was fantastic.

Not on Steam and not on PC. Mirrors Edge, Psychonauts, and Portal games are about it. And Mirrors Edge and Portal are kind of a stretch to call platformers.
Not very many at all on any systems nowadays. I would love for a Ratchet and Clank style platformer on PC.

Damn guys, Prince of Persia is just sitting over there in the corner looking really awkward, hearing every word of this conversation.
Also, Alice. Though I found it kinda boring.
And Tomb Raider? Damn. Ice cold.

It does seem like a smart idea. For Valve to bring over the standard classical games. Get Chess, Checkers, Go, and others. Make them F2P. And allow for custom skins to be sold + their own. People will play them on Steam, just because its Steam. Heh
How about Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath?
I second this. Sonic Generations is a heck of a lot of fun, and is more or less platforming
If it's the old one, I already do. If it's the new one, it's an abomination and should be put down.
Listen, I understand there's a large, black pit where your heart otherwise should be, but you don't need to be taking it out on homeboy Bionic Commando.

Overpriced. Wait for a sale.

Alice was unlikeable. It takes control away from you too often like on launch pads. And the platforms have this weird feel where sometimes you make the jump and other times you should have.. It just felt like Unreal Engine all over.

Hmm, I tried switching PhysX to CPU (since it says Auto-detect, NVidia Graphics Card, or CPU) but it still crashes.

Hamilton's Great Adventure is great.

Stranger's Wrath used to not run for more than five minutes without crashing. This is not the case anymore.
It is not a platformer, it is a beautiful puzzle game.
I dislike this game: it consists of placing your units on a grid, and then watching the fight with popcorn.

Are there people still playing Red Orchestra 2
That's a lot for this game. RO has always been niche.

Wow, not even Killing Floor numbers.
What sets Metro 2033 different from shooters btw? RPG-like? Videos show that it's pretty much a typical military shooter but with mutants. Don't give me that atmosphere reasoning because for me I'm still seeing a "gruff dude".
