The same thing happens to me. A quick Google search reveals that it's pretty much the norm for this game. Fun as hell, though.

Now I'm really pissed at myself because I just realized I missed the latest Indie Royale :/
I really wanted to try nuclear dawn, and fractal. Goddammit.
I even posted in the damn thread about it.

The game is... good, not really great, but I think it will find an audience thanks to more flexible pricing options on PC.
Hey guys, anyone here interested in testing an application I am working on?
Quick synopsis.
- Over Christmas, my hdd played up, I had some corrupt data and lost my steam categories.
- I didn't want to have to re-enter these at is it is a total pain in the arse.
- I am writing an application to edit this external to steam in a nicer much more user friendly way.
So with that out of the way, I need a couple people to run my app as it is now and report back an error log, basically it is just to verify I am reading certain files correctly at the moment. All the editing functionality has been disabled in this version until I am 100% happy and not going to break anyones Steam installation. Which would be bad.
For the most part it seems all good and even syncs correctly with the cloud post edit. hurrah!
So, anyone with a nice list of games on Steam and preferably has quite a few different Categories already set. Send me a PM (or email/comment via website), or if you want to do some further reading on the goings on and dev progess....

If anyone is interested, there is a free game on Amazon called Big Kahuna Reef (not redeemable on Steam).
I don't know how it is but hey, it's free.

Thanks for this, my wife is into these Match 3 type games. The Mac version is free as well, though it looks like it isn't supported in Lion.

I really liked the art in the trial, but not enough to get spacebucks for it.
Also, I have zero trust in XBLA exclusives anymore.

It's been free for years. For what it is, it's pretty decent, and it does get more complex as it goes on. At the very least, you can't say its not worth the asking price.

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet seems to be heading to Steam soon. There is a Fuel Cell Games Comp added to the registry and the only game they have any mention of is Insanely.
Edit: beaten. should have looked through the last page.

I guess Steam Community went down for a couple of minutes right as I was finishing up Sonic Generations. The achievement popped up for completing all stages, and it shows up on the game's page in my library, but it doesn't appear anywhere else that it should, like the "view all achievements" page.
Is it simply gone, or will it show up at some point?

I feel terrible for posting about an achievement
Cool. That game seemed pretty neat. Will buy at some point in time.
I was complaining on another site about the recent daily deals only being 50% off instead of the usual 75% off.
Then it got pointed out to me that those with discount coupons for 50% off would be getting the normal 75% off pricing.
So effectively they're reducing their usual Steam sale discounts in order to drive the gifting market for coupons? Or make coupons somehow worth something? I don't like this if it's going to be an on-going 'feature' of sales...

Daily deals aren't "usually" 75% off. It's a varying % at times, I really doubt they're decreasing the % off just to promote coupons.

Only 5 of the 22 daily deals this month have been 50% off. I think we're safe.
Fair enough, the last 4-5 in a row must have been 50% off for me to notice though?

haha I know what you mean
Earlier I saw a Retro City Rampage mention and thought it an Alan Wake are the two XBLA game I'd buy at full price. Then I realized RCR will probably be on PC later, and I'd much rather play it on PC. Alan Wake I'll probably still go 360. I have points that need spending.

Why wouldn't steam be able to roll out it out till the 30th? He makes it sound like it's on their end.
Anyone buy/play Unstoppable Gorg? There's a Giant Bomb quick look for it, looked okay. Actually looked rather easy, which is worrisome, but I only got to watch the first 5-10 mins of the quick look. Also wondering if the iPad version is identical, more or less. I'm sure it'll be 99 cents there at some point (currently $4.99).

Lord of the Rings: War in the North is currently 14.99 on Impulse. Worth it?

Hey, just discovered that the Direct2Drive Supreme Commander multiplayer key registers on Steam! Air guitar!
PS: Most anyone affected is likely already aware, but I'll mention it anyways - Direct2Drive officially turns over to Gamefly tomorrow, so if you're worried about losing any of your games in the transition (they don't guarantee every game will still be available) you might want to download them now

Depends. I love the shit out of the game, but it might not be everybody's cup of tea. Snowblind has definitely updated the Diablo/Dark Alliance formula to where it falls in line with more modern action games. While it still has the character customization and looting of prior hack'n'slash loot whoring games, the level structure is less based around wide open fields/dungeons to run around and more around Gears of War-esque set pieces and otherwise linear level design.
Of course, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, since it just means that you spend less time wandering around bland open fields like in previous Snowblind games, but linearity is a deal breaker to some, I guess.
I've played through the game on coop twice now and am well into my third time through. I'd say that it was well worth it.

Steam has been going down quite frequently today. It's back up now so you should be able to log in.
valve better get their shit together before people start jumping ship to origin
sounds like the beta patch is kinda risky http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/01/23/care-for-a-wee-taste-of-skyrim-1-4/

Not sure if serious. You don't usually troll, so I'm concerned.
Since when did "making a joke" become "trolling"?
It's safe (in my experience so far), it's just a precaution in case there was anything like patch 1.1 (backwards dragons and junk).
There's a bug pertaining to the Hall of the Dead quest that needs to be fixed. I'm not sure what triggered it exactly, but when I bumped into the cannibal in said Hall and ended our conversation, the goal for the quest reverted back to "Speak to Verulus about the Hall of the Dead". Of course, I can't do that as the game world considers it complete, and the misc. quest has been sitting in the quest menu ever since. The Taste of Death, which is what the Hall of the Dead can lead to, began and ended just fine.

I just don't like the constant use of the word "trolling" is all. Everything is trolling nowadays, sarcasm, irony, making a joke.... <= trolling
