I have the red faction, darksiders company of heroes one yes.
Almost seems a shame for Relic to do all this effort on CoH only to release a new one and people will jump ship.

If you're one of the few people who don't own Killing Floor, it's 75% off ($4.49) over at GamersGate. There's also a six-pack available for $22.44 ($3.74 per head).

I dont remember it much. Like the part with the ramps with different buildings or something like that?
it was frustrating yeah
Nice, I'll try this next time I replay the game. I don't remember which area are you referring to in the last part, actually.
And there's a particular jump, in the storm drain chapter, that I always have to try no less than 10 times because I can't seem to get it right:
IIRC you can slide down the sides, or (and this is a test of my memory) don't jump at all and just take the damage as you land?

That's one of the few moments in the game that pissed me off. You would think that you have to jump but I ended up just sliding to the bottom and walking around.
I've been meaning to replay it and sink some time into the time trials.

it is possible to slide at the side jump and wallrun above the gap. hard though.
You mean landing in the small ledge below, and then jumping from there?
OK then, that's counter-intuitive. What were they thinking?

I'm liking the 'rewards' for pre-orders on Steam.
why?
Dat fake feeling of a reward.

Batman Arkham City key hidden in this post! Bought it by mistake before realising it wasn't the GOTY edition.
Please say thanks if you took it!

Thanks, but I would just like to say I don't own the game and will not be taking your key.
Probably preorder it for $20 or something through GMG.
nice, I'd take it but I'm too lazy to fire up steam
be honest with yourself, the no hats part was the deal breaker
I thought this was a regular Arkham Asylum key for a moment there. I got excited.
I'm wondering if the art book and soundtrack add to one's game count. I should have paid attention to said figure when I pre-purchased Tomb Raider.
Edit: I don't think they do.

Sorry all! I know it's GFWL etc but I thought someone might want it rather than it just sitting in my email for the rest of eternity.
I took it, thanks!

It won't be sway me to buy every title on pre-order, but those I was interested in giving something 'extra' is OK with me. Certainly helps when you see other places offering pre-order bonuses, when previously Steam wouldn't.
Just have to see how it goes, if it means Steam prices remain high then I'll probably change how I feel.
Got too excited, but realized that it is not the GOTY version
In a way, I'm glad, because I care little for modern Resident Evil.
thing is we were already getting those extras for preorder bonuses for free (as in no rewards, just came with your preorder) no questions asked 6 months ago.
or like you get a ripoff season pass or a 5 year old game that is worth next to nothing, or bio infinite that had hats as an incentive.
they're basically just gating free/worthless stuff now...
isn't revelaitons like the good one?

Nah. I think in the context of what was available on the 3ds at the time it was decent, but that is about it. The online stuff sounds pretty interesting, but with the gameplay mechanics as they are...I can't see it being anything too special.
Still it is something to do I suppose.

Compared to RE6 and 5 probably. It has the slower paced, claustrophobic, secluded, darker tones of RE games of yore. Doesn't have any of the crazy diving/sliding/dmc quickshots of re6 though which is almost a bummer at this point for me.
Be that as it may, I'm still not coughing up ~$50 for a PC port that's 16 months late to the platform.
It should be launching at no more than $30.Edit: D'oh, clarity.
I don't get it, RE6 was 30 over here, and even had a pre-order 10% off iirc, it was a late port too but of an HD game in the first place. Revelaitons is 40, no pre-order sale, and it's a port of an handheld game. What the hell Capcom, make peace with your own (long gone) brain.Be that as it may, I'm still not coughing up ~$50 for a PC port that's 16 months late to the platform.
Cacpcom confirmed for 2013's worst company awards. Bring on the golden turd!Be that as it may, I'm still not coughing up ~$50 for a PC port that's 16 months late to the platform.
Edit: D'oh, clarity.
Doing the same right now and considering gifting a second copy, even though I already played it to hell on the 360 I love this game to bits.
Wouldn't the cost to port a 3DS be higher than porting from a current gen console game? Not defending Capcom on the price tag. But I can't think of something else that would make Revelations cost more than RE6
MT Framework was designed to be scalable from the PS360/PC down to next-gen mobile hardware (i.e. the 3DS/Vita and presumably more recent tablets), so I don't think the port would've required all that much effort.

Orange Box $6.78
http://www.impulsedriven.com/products/ESD-IMP-W2605
HL2, EP1, EP2, Portal
I imagine it also gets you a proper tf2 account if you hadn't previously bought it or an item in it before.

Here you are, kaleii.
Oh JaseC, you remembered!
Thanks! Tunnelbeared (it's still more expensive in Europe) this badboy and ordered it. Now I have to wait 24 hours for them to validate my purchase.
... and I still have to find Half-Life (or Source) cheaply.
They've been featuring a Valve game every day this week. There's a good chance they'll do Half-Life Complete before the end of the week (since Gamestop always chooses premium bundles and would never pick Half-Life over Half-Life Complete.)
If only you could make the wishlist private. I put random stuff on there that I'm somewhat remotely interested in having another look at in the future, at some point, not now, and it's nice to have a list of that stuff that'll also tell me when these are on sale. The games I know I want, I don't need to track via wishlist. Feels bad when people get me something from that list and I end up playing it for about an hour.
Ah, I didn't realise that. I know the games are on sale throughout the week, but they've been showing 33% off here, so I assumed the Orange Box was an unrelated deal.
kaleii get's hit by buyers remorse. It's super effective.
Nah, I'll be fine.
Honestly.
...
You'll be able to pick up the Half-Life Anthology during the Summer Sale for $3.75, which, when combined with the $6.80 Orange Box, works out slightly cheaper than buying Half-Life Complete at what's presumably going to be 66% off ($13.60). Even snapping up HL: Source and HLDM: Source for a further $2.50 still saves you a buck or so!
Just make your top ten those games that you know you want and don't think you need to track.
Its not that much work and will save you from getting a sub par game.
Or just put in your profile not to gift games off of your wish list.
SO MANY MATHS!
Yeah, thanks. I think I'll keep a look out for Half-Life: Source then? Surely that's the best version?
HL: Source is nothing more than a port of the original to the Source engine, with some tweaked lighting/water effects and the like. Most people actually prefer the original version of the game.
