I just bought Hitman Absolution from Green Man Gaming and wanted to activate the code, but Steam says I already have the game. It's in my library, too. When did that happen. I think I have a buying stuff on sale problem.

Anybody want a Hitman key in exchange for some other cheap game? Maybe Bully or Shank 1 or Mark of the Ninja or some other good cheap you have left from when it was 50 or 75% off.

How about Toy Soldiers (Steam key)?

There is a new limited-time-only indie bundle. $20 gets you:

- Q.U.B.E.
- Sanctum
- The Ball
- Unmechanical
- Dungeon Defenders
- Primal Carnage
- Waves

Works out to roughly $2.85 per game. I poked through some of the registry entries and there doesn't appear to be any recent activity, so I'd temper those expectations of an elaborate Half-Life 3 announcement ARG.

Bully: Scholarship Edition

Quote to see key.

Much obliged. I've long heard this is secretly Rockstar's best open world game and I could use a laugh or two today.

Let me keep the giveaway wave rolling:

Red Faction: Armageddon

RFA DLC

Also, as I wasn't PC gaming when Thief was big.... do the two games hold up well by today's standards or are the stealth mechanics dated?

Makes me nostalgic for the sale when Steam actually had decent priced Indie bundles. 5 for $5. Those were the days. I think I bought 4-5 bundles.

So anyone wanna trade Bully for anything that's $5 on Steam?
I also have a discount code for Duke Nukem 3D and 10,000 if anyone wants to trade the code for either game.

I just played Thief Gold earlier this year. I added the graphics overhauls and mods and it was a brilliant experience. All of my good nostalgic memories and sentiments towards the game were upheld, and it still remains in my personal top ten games of all time.

All I needed to hear. After finishing Mark of the Ninja I'm eager to jump back into a compelling stealth experience. Gonna grab Stealth Bastard while I'm at it.

To that end, is the Stealth Bastard soundtrack worth tacking on? Or to open it up, are there any game soundtracks that you guys regularly listen to or revisit? Outside of Shatter and Bionic Commando I can't really think of any that I actually listen to as music. Awesomenauts is good for a laugh but hardly something you'd rock out to.

Guys what if Valve charged us 50$ a year for Steam+ and it got us good deals. Would you go for it?>?
Click to expand...

I was really happy with PSN's Plus program but only because the digital marketplace on consoles is already so poor that any form of discount/reward stands out. Steam on the other hand already puts on great deals and when they're not providing a deal that's useful to me it's likely another website is so I don't know how they'd really justify it.

So, how bad is Legendary? I know it's bad but is it "won't pay 1.24€ just to have it in my steam library and probably never touch it" bad? :p

I heard rumors that Legendary was the game that made that dude start a new Steam account.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Sleeping Dogs: Year of the Snake - $3.50: YES!
That's a very good price.

I'm waiting on the Knife of Dunwall at a similar price.

what is this Zack Zero game?

I have a friend that played it on 360 and said it was good, so I got it for PC sometime ago. Tried playing it and the FOV was so fucking small I couldn't play for more than a couple of minutes. Avoid.
