I played Ultimate Carnage and found it rather bland, but I only played solo. I'm having more fun with Sega Rally Revolution right now, but that's not on Steam for some reason (got it from GetGames).

That's the feeling I get from watching videos, the games look really bland. I'll pass.

Flatout 1 and 2 were really fun afair.

 

[Lord British]

I highly recommend getting Painkiller: Black Edition and skipping the rest.

 

[MRORANGE]

you can purchase DustForce now

 

[Dipswitch]

Same

Ditto. The pre-loading/activation for HL2 was.....painful to say the least.

 

[R1CHO]

Bought! Lets see.

 

[FloppyDelux]

you can purchase DustForce now

no i cant

edit: nvm just restarted steam and i can buy it now.

 

[Hanzou]

I actually really enjoyed Ultimate Carnage. I picked it up at a steam sale for about $3 and had quite a bit of fun.

 

[Des0lar]

no i cant

Refresh the page

edit: a lot of times

 

[MRORANGE]

no i cant

keep refreshing the DustForce game page on steam until you can by it.

 

[svegis]

For those that can't reach Steam at the moment, Dustforce is discounted by 10% making it 8,09€.

 

[scorpscarx]

I'll give away all of my remaining coupons for painkiller black ($2.50) if anyone is interested. Percentages off these games not full games. Last spam of this from me, I just really wan't to play PKB.^^.

Valve, Steelstorm, Nimbus, SamandMax complete, The wonderful end of world, %60Magicka, %50 Amnesia, Grand Theft Auto 4 complete (%50), SolSurvivor, Shadowgrounds, and Chantelise.

Meh...

 

[FloppyDelux]

DustForce bought w00t

 

[DyslexicAlucard]

Watch some video clips if you get a chance. It looks so bad.

If anyone wants my Strategy First 50% off coupon (Flatout Pub) let me know. It doesn't work with the Flatout Pack.

This game almost makes me ashamed that I'm currently trying to learn Dutch in hopes of moving to the Netherlands after I graduate.

 

[Nabs]

Oh snaps, Stallion picked up Dustforce.

*waits for screenshots and impressions*

 

[Blizzard]

Oh snaps, Stallion picked up Dustforce.

*waits for screenshots and impressions*

I'm getting it after I get home tonight. Let's play co-op together OH WAIT.

Anyone ever try to use a bestbuy gift card to buy one of those visa gift cards? I wanna know if that works.

 

[confused]

Dustforce has 1 (one) Steam achievement ?

 

[Volcynika]

Dustforce has 1 (one) Steam achievement ?

Obviously to satisfy people that won't buy a game without any sort of achievements.

I'd suggest not using a prepaid card of any sort to buy from Steam. If the bank initiates a chargeback for any reason and you need to add to your account to cancel the chargeback, you might be fucked. I've heard at least one story of this sort, though I think PayPal was involved too.

S+ icon, baseless assumption would be to get the best rank on all maps. There's no description though, so no hints or nothing really.

And 2.4% already achieved it, lol.

 

[Nabs]

If you plan on buying a gift card, make sure you check and see if anyone else has used it on Steam. I've done it plenty of times without any problems.

 

[graywolf323]

my first store purchase was The Longest Journey + Dreamfall pack

The real achievement is figuring out how you get it!

 

[R1CHO]

Played 10 minutes of dustforce, looks great, but the framerate keeps dancing from 45-60 and its driving me crazy!!!!

PS: wait, maybe its because the HDD is busy donwloading the amalur demo

PS2: yep, now is better.

 

[Joe Molotov]

I wonder if Flatout 3 is worth $4.99...

 

[DyslexicAlucard]

God no. Look at my previous post on the last page...

 

[Joe Molotov]

I've done it. I had a ton of reward zone points a while back and used them to buy Visa Gift Card.

Almost seem to remember people on Slickdeals mentioning you could use best buy gift cards to purchase other gift cards (which is not a very common acceptance). Not sure if it was Visa cards, but I'm pretty sure you ca get Kindle (good for anything at Amazon) cards with them.

I've got a Gamestop gift card lying around :gasp. Now that's going to be the challenge to use.

Same.

Edge just gave it a 1. Pretty sure people mentioned it was only the second 1 in Edge history.

 

[pfkas]

Flatout : UC is worth a few pounds of anyone's money. I've played the arse out of it recently - Stereoscopic 3D + Bonnet Cam = XD

 

[SteveWinwood]

Thanks for the responses. Since Steam has never even touched paypal and other people have had success, hopefully it works.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning demo will be up on Steam later today.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning demo will be up on Steam later today.

Any word if Star Trek Online will be back up on Steam later today?

 

[Sniper McBlaze]

This is what I get on all the pages in the Store section and I can't play any games because Steam says "they're unavailable".

Is this a problem with my computer or Steam?

Not that I don't believe you, buy do you have a source? I was about to DL it on Origin.

I get that some times. Resetting steam usually works.

Tried that. Nothing is working.

[Zizbuka]

Anyone interested in any of these coupons? PM please if interested.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

I was worried it would be Orgin Exclusive!!

All I've heard is good things about the game.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

EA isn't even publishing Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning on Steam. 38 Studios is, so I"m guessing they have the same sort of agreement with EA as Valve does.

 

[Derrick01]

Wow this Amalur news is fantastic. I was told the demo was origin only and now I'll actually get to play it on PC later today. Plus the steamworks features too, well played Schilling.

 

[1-D_FTW]

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning will have Steam Achievements and Steam Cloud support.

Are they making multiple skus? How does this work? Was hopeful that because Shilling was a PC nerd he'd understand the importance of Steam, but also though I saw it was going to have Origin achievements.

EDIT: Well Crimsonhead answered that. Thank goodness. +1 for nerdage.

Heh and for a second I thought EA was trying to redeem itself...awesome for Amalur, though!
