I'm assuming thats counterstrike source? I have a few 50% off valve coupons if you want one.
The GGG product page specifically mentions Steam.
Hope it's safe! Just using my paypal. Will just get it tomorrow. lol
Yeah they're good guys.

For anyone that is curious about Detour, there is a decent impressions video here: http://youtu.be/4b0004Y4w7c
The guy seems to do impression videos for most daily deals and new releases.

"A new Half-Life every 3 months?
I actually don't care about how long it takes for Episode 3/HL3, I still need to beat Episodes 1 and 2, I just find it hilarious looking back and seeing statements like that which end up so stupefyingly wrong. Reminds me of when I first found out about the 3DO through EGM calling it the best system ever.

I have an extra copy on Steam. I was going to have a contest, but it's all yours. Just PM me your Steam info and I'll hit you up later today.

Well at least the quote about Steam's launch being bad was dead on.
So I just launched From Dust for the first time. A Uplay account?
Game companies! I already have a Steam account! You already have my money from buying it on Steam! Quit making me sign up for 14 different account! Thanks.
No! I don't want to be updated with exclusive offers from you.

So I just finished The Darkness II Demo... will they include anything resembling a recap of the first game?
I certainly don't. The shift into the more condensed episodes was one of the best things that could have happened to the series.
And this is the point where you have done wrong.
Ubisoft is probably the worst publisher for this.
The Wikipedia entry has everything you need to know.

For my bank it takes about three days, but I'm going to guess it varies by region and bank.
On the subject of Paypal, they're terribly slow at applying credit. I had Rage pre-ordered for all of about half an hour before a kind GAFer gifted it to me (said GAFer knows who he is, and all I'll say is that he needn't concern himself with purchasing Half-Life 3 ). Anyway, the ~$30 didn't reappear to my name until 3 weeks later.
). Anyway, the ~$30 didn't reappear to my name until 3 weeks later.Just one more question. Does Paypal charge the user a fee like since I live in the US and I "technically" paid to an overseas online retailer?
I mean what I see in my PayPal acct where it shows transaction is what was the advertised price of the game on GetGamesGo, but there's no hidden fees or whatnot right?
Depends on the nominated labelling of the transaction. Fees incurred on the part of either party, if applicable, are displayed when sending money.
Edit: At least, this is the case with PayPal Australia. The fundamental systems aren't universal - something I discovered when attempting to understand how to send money as gift, only to later learn that gifting is an automated process when sending money to "friends and family".

What? Are these two related?

Perfect, thanks.
From what I understand the full game also explains what happened in the first game.
Absolutely. The game was part of the Potato Sack ARG.

I played through it and got 100% achievements during the summer sale and saw no such thing.
I guess it was removed?
Oh, maybe.
How unfortunate. I know the MP3s are (were?) still hosted over at the Dejobaan site, and I suppose I must've assumed that the the levels remained within the game.Didn't like the game at first, but I just recently gave it a second chance (this time with a gamepad) and found some enjoyment. I just wish there was a bit more to it, like more unique goals or more interesting levels. But it still functions well as a score-attack/time-attack game.

I just noticed that Call of Duty 1 is $20 on Steam. FFS, Activision.

I enjoyed The Wonderful End of the World. I got it in the potato pack, but I would gladly pay $2.50 for it. If you like Katamari, then you will like this. It is a pretty blatant rip-off. But in this case, that is a very good thing.

No daily deal?
Bad idea. Ubi's stuff goes on sale pretty frequently. If you can wait a while you'll snag it for 7$.

According to the news page, it's supposed to be The Wonderful End of the World:

I'd say that is a horrible price since you can get AC1 and 2 for $10.

Wow, that's one of the most shameless ripoffs I've ever seen.

Put nearly an hour into the first F.E.A.R. last night, it's starting to show its age a bit but it's still a lot of fun to play. The Half-Life styled presentation, the gunplay, the sound design, and the slow-motion combat effects are all great. Even if the enemies aren't the brightest they have some neat behaviours, they do things like peek around corners or dive through windows to get better cover.
Aside from some weird micro-pauses, which I assume are the game loading/streaming in a new area, I haven't experienced any sort of performance issues or had any trouble getting the game to run.
So far it's been a nice diversion from The Old Republic.

I also found it pretty awful to be honest. Just stick to good old Katamari.

It's pretty fucking awesome. The soundtrack is pretty nice as well.
Yo Bus, if you're reading this: a certain game got added to the reg recently. Can you guess which

It's pretty good. Challenging, but not on the level of Super Meat Boy.

Started playing SPAZ and some stuff isn't showing up. The main menu the most important of the things, and a bunch of the hud.
That happened to me a few times but it was rare. Relaunching the game always fixes it for me.
