There's a guy on ebay selling beta access to Payday, and the bidding has gone up to $17.50.
Wat.

You just have to grind it out. This applies to every fighting game. It can be intimidating at first because there is typically no "team" in a fighting game and the only one to blame for your loss is you (or poor netcode...), but stick with it and commit to some sparring sessions with either local (if you have friends or a scene) or online competition. You'll eventually reach a point where you aren't scarred of each individual match and from there you can start learning from mistakes and improving.

When it comes to digital items, people bidding on ebay have no idea what their actual value is most of the time. Things get sold for ridiculous amounts.
Thanks !

Assassin's Creed 3, no hesitation.
Thanks for The Journey Down!
Or their legality, for that matter.
The amount of steam keys being sold you have to use shady VPN servers for...

Thanks.
Some random thoughts on some games, I bought during the sale & already played a bit...
Gnomoria (~2,5h): Puzzling. Confusing. Overwhelming. I'll get to it, but atm I'm a little bit ... disappointed? Eager to lern though.
Hitman: Blood Money (~XXh): Expected old-feel to it, but the very first level showed potential, though I have the feeling I'm too unpatient for this game, since my first walkthrough' ended always in run&gun
CS:GO (~7h): FUN! Yeah, a total noob, but still fun - was worth the 5 bucks!
Cave Story+ (~3,5h): Another win!
FTL (~3,5h): First 2 hours were meh. Today I had my first good run up to Sector 8, where I obviously got destroyed by the final boss. Still, the game finally got me!
Intrusion 2 (~100min): Mh...don't know. The physics are cool at first, than just got reaaally annoying at times.
FEZ (~2h): Really cool game. Like it! Have the feeling though, that I miss some parts, cause I don't have any ambition to solve those language-puzzles etc.
Dust: An Elysian Tale (~5h): Great game! Serviable story, cool artstyle, fun combat!

For CS:GO, are you playing mostly casual matches, competitive, or something else? I also picked this up during the summer sale and didn't want to jump into competitive too quickly, but the few casual matches I've played have been the worst experiences ever.
Just wondering what another fellow n00b is doing at the beginning stages of that game
.
Heh. What Gabe must think of DukeBobby's purchase history.

Saint's Row: The Third DLC is cool but they give away achievements like free candy. Like three per mission.
Great game though, had a lot of fun.

I don't remember the DLC's being that easy to 100% in terms of achievements.
You know, Dead Island is surprisingly good. It's pretty rough around the edged, but it's still enjoyable.
Something I found it a bit strange is that in some cutscenes the co-op characters suddenly show up out of nowhere even if you're playing solo. All NPCs also refer to you has a male even if you're a female which is a bit odd.

Played through that game with 2 friends of mine. Probably why I finished it in the first place. The game get's boring as you enter the city. Almost no weapon variations and it becomes and really awful place to explore with all the tight alleyways.
I really like the idea of a true open-world zombie games, but Dead Island fell short in many different ways.

Warband is like the easiest game to idle in ever. I've had it on Configure screen for the past hour, already got two cards
Also, I have 25 cards altogether. Any idea on how much I might get for them? Is it better to put all on the market at once or to spread it out?

Some Genkibowl achievements took a few attempts, but the other two DLC were pretty easy to 100% if you read the descriptions beforehand and knew what you were going for.
But for a few exceptions, most card markets have bottomed out. You are looking at maybe 10-12 cents per card. There is no reason to spread em out as there is no variation.
I threw in the towel when I got to the sewer. Fuck sewer levels. Ugh.

I will trade you for your Warband cards, I'm at 5/10 and want to craft the badge.

I got every achievement of Gangstas in Space and The Trouble With Clones (still missing a few of Genkibowl VII). They're easy to get if you check them before playing.
Last mission of The Trouble With Clones gave me 4 achievements in like 15 minutes.
A bit late on this but thanks for Zeno Clash!
Thought you were talking about Dark Souls for a minute there, before I scrolled up.

What? It got fixed?
It's definitely not nearly as well realized as it could've been, but since I bought it for only 3,- I can forgive some of its faults. I do actually think the city is more interesting than the resort, though, because it's a lot more dangerous and pulls you out of your comfortzone a bit more.
Too bad the online co-op was completely broken for me and my friend. It's a decent game but extremely buggy.

Though he was talking about Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines for a minute. Fucking sewers.
We had to use Hamachi to get it to work. Without it, it would never let me connect. Plus, I would enter some kind of kimbo where I could still move around and see everyone, but no one else could see me.
Final boss was also hilariously bad. I was playing as the gun dude and just shocked-stun the guy into oblivion.
I have a problem with people joining my game while I'm playing solo. Apparently you can only change this in the main menu and not in the options while playing the game, but I keep forgetting to change it. At one point I was in the ingame menu while someone else joined. Normally going into the menu stops gameplay, but because someone else joined I suddenly got attacked while still browsing through my inventory. I should really turn that off, haha.
Also, I'm still in the progress of playing the game so please put Dead Island spoilers under tags, please. The story isn't great or anything, but I'd appreciate it.

Not oficially, but there are some user-made fixes that really help to smooth things out. Like this one. Also force vsync through the nvidia or amd control panel and boom, the game becomes playable.

Its awesome, been playing it on iGPU while my new GPU arrives
Quoting for new page.
Tough sell, considering it was way cheaper just a few days ago. Maybe if you sell it at summer sale price.

It's tough when the 4-pack was going for that price a week ago.

I need to stop watching Spelunky HD streams. All the 360 know it alls are basically spoiling every secret casually in their runs.
Yeah I know...I'll probably have to end up lowering the price... It just pisses me off to have to take a hit cause my friend decided to dump me at the last minute.

Damnnn Dishonored crashes so much for me, I did a little searching but not enough. I even installed all the pre-reqs, always when loading between areas. I fear leaving an area so bad now.
After managing to fix the weird color glitch in the original Fallout, I found out that the game is incredibly hard. Or I terribly suck at it. Either way, I died less than 3 minutes after I gained control of my character.
And Far Cry 1 is hard too. The stealth is terrible, or I also suck at it. Either way, I already died close to 10 times at the very beginning, in the part where I have to
