This Skyrim workshop thing is fucking incredible.
Future of modding right here. Bravo, Valve.

I got an invite today but I installed Steam for Android a week or so ago.
Hory shitto, time to get the app!
Anyone bought Gotham City Impostors yet? Seems like TF2 judging by the brief vids I've seen...
It's rare I know, but just kills 2 birds with one stone I feel. Ah well, like I said, I'd rather my friends use Steam more (or at all!)
Depends if they want to put out for 75% off at the start (10$) or set it to 50% (20$) and then do one more FNV + DLC sale at 75%. You probably can't use a coupon at all so that mixes things up but the next time FNV is on sale it'll probably be 5$ base game + 4x2.50$ story DLC + 2$ leftover DLC, so unless they really cut into the ultimate edition starting in the summer who knows what'll happen.
fake edit: 66% off FNV GOTY (fuck ultimate edition) should be 13$ or something which beats the price by plenty and is more likely to be the first sale price for it I'm guessing. It'd beat out buying it all separately.
Bethesda, no?

Well... I meant more just the option for being able to integrate mods in to Steam like that, but yeah, Bethesda too 
TF2 stuff showed up first (though I don't know if you can add those things to your game) and Valve is implementing the browser/store. They still need to add list view and search options though.
Like right after? Sounds like a coincidence because I installed the app a few days ago and nothing like that happened.
I didn't get shit and I was in the beta on the first day =(.

Garry's Mod is going to get Steam Workshop integration with the next major version.
And it will most likely be integrated into Portal 2 with the next update.

That's awesome if it's true. Do you have a source of any kind? I think I heard about Garry's Mod getting it before somewhere.
I wonder if that means we can just download custom maps easily (not that it's hard now) via the workshop this way. Would be pretty sweet.
I haven't seen much of any talk about it, and I've been having a lot of fun with it since its release a few days ago on Steam, so here is the Titan Attacks OT. It's pretty much modern Galaga/Space Invaders gameplay with a upgradeable ship and a combo system, leaderboards, and seemingly infinite new game+'s. And it's only $4.

Embarrassing that I know this without looking it up, but A History of Violence was the last Hollywood film VHS release.

Bringing Out the Dead was the last laserdisc release if I remember correctly.
I had the same thing happen when I downloaded it weeks ago. Maybe something about the number of betas you can be in the queue for at once?

A game (?) called "Songs of Faith" was added to the registry.

You weren't sucked in by the $33 in Day 1 DLC?

WTF. Did something happen to Gemini Rue?
I haven't played the game in like a month and suddently it's giving me a lot of problems. The screen is not centered and I can't load my save, fuck.

Ok, this is dissapointing. Found this on the Steam Forums.
I am not ok with this.

Aw come on, the actual dlc is like 12 dollars; everything else is unlockable. Also, Monolith is already working on a fix for the matchmaking and adding muting and jump-in matches for next month. And someone posted a fix for the FPS issues at least. But the stuff like gfwl and wb account still hurts it though...

Gabe tried to save you from this, but you guys were like BOO VALVE IS OPPRESSING AWESOME INDIE DEVS, BOO! and so they put it on Steam anyway, and now look.

33$ DLC for a 15$ game. What the fuck? Is this another Railworks or something?

Doubt they're going to be running through any updates any time soon, you're probably safe.

here's the full post
In case you didn't read the other threads, a recent fix to the game had the unfortunate side effect of making all your savegames incompatible. We're so sorry about this. In our defense, this is an issue with the AGS engine (which was used to make the game) and is not something we could prevent. This update fixed a major issue with the game not running on Win 7 laptops - a problem that has been hounding us from day one. It was a "damned if we did, damned if we didn't" situation, and we can't apologize enough.
However, we have gone and made a bunch of compatible savegames for you to use. You can nab them HERE.
Just unzip them where-ever your savegame files are stored. By default it is either:
c:\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\gemini rue\Saves
or
c:\program files\Steam\steamapps\common\gemini rue\relists\Saves
This should hopefully cover everybody. Sorry again for this problem!

Well, looks like I got caught between updates. I'll probably restart the game anyway, but not today.
I don't enjoy doing them bad press either, but it is a little frustrating.

Awesome. I really want this to be big. Really hope Dota 2 will use this as well along with all other Valve games.

Why not just use one of their saves that they've provided? If you can pick up right or close to where you were I see no problem.
I've seen way shittier support from indie people. I'm looking at you Magicka, such terrible terrible support.

I'll check that out. But as I said, I haven't played the game in like a month, so maybe this is a good opportunity to restart the game and finish it once and for all.
I was like 3 hours in the game anyway, and I'm sure I'll catch it quick.
The game is 6 hours long. You can finish it in one or two sittings. It's not a big deal.

This should come as a surprise to no one but Amalur Steam cd keys don't register on Origin.
I managed to get the pre-order DLC codes for the game separately and applied them to my EA account by registering them on Origin. Now I wonder whether I will be able to use the DLC when I start my Steam version of the game after it unlocks.

wtf is wrong with my steam guys, never heard of any of these games/apps:
You can sign into your EA account on the Steam version of Reckoning for whatever that's worth.

EDIT: Whoops, apparently his brother unexpectedly showed up and bought it for him. All is well!
Hahah.. it's even stupider in Australia..
Fallout New Vegas = $39.99 http://store.steampowered.com/app/22380/?cc=au
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate = $39.99 http://store.steampowered.com/app/2028016/?cc=au
And the best part is that 3 of the 4 main dlc are 12.99 instead of 9.99 like in the states.. come on bethesda.. you're making things too cheap here
I'm actually hoping they do a 'DLC' bundle for like 19.99 or something so those of us who have just the base game can get them at a discount (and even cheaper during a sale).. or yeah.. a 10-20 dollar 'upgrade' to the ultimate edition. Early adopters are good customers, but then I guess we can't be that good if we didn't buy all the dlc
and they know a lot of us will buy the ultimate edition because it's 'such a better deal'.. *sigh*They also have a tendency to not adjust the prices for bundles - so a while back it was about 15-20 dollars cheaper to buy new vegas WITH the strategy guide than it was to buy it without!!

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It was a problem in the beta and they must not have fixed it for the final release. It can be fixed, but then again, it's Gfwl, so it'll take at least a month for a patch.
The game is okay, but not special. There are plenty of games that do what it does, but better, and some are even free.
