I have no idea, from what I gathered it's some sort of MMO?
Say that reminds me...any word on a 'remake'/re-release of that Mtumbo saves the world browser game?
For that matter, Dragon Quest X on Steam, S-E, I'd get it day 1!
I posted a thread about it as soon as it came out of the registry

There any time frame for the next set of Nvidia drivers? 320.49 have a lot of issues with Metro physx.
That and eXceed 3rd Jade Penetrate Black Package should be a pack.
New beta drivers are out, you can try those. Apart from that, they don't really give dates for new final drivers.

I got a notification that the new betas were out today.
I managed 75% in under 50 hours. A second fast as possible run on hard brought me over 50.

What's releasing on that date?
Also SKULLGIRLS PRE-ORDER EFF YEAH!
Gonna wait til DuckTales is up on Steam first though so I can do both give aways at the same time if possible.
Guacamelee, Spelunky and Papers please. They cost less than a new retail game. but still!

Wait what? When was this announced?

$9.99 for Papers Please? It's a neat idea but I hope they expanded a lot form the free demo/beta. Seems a little high.
8/8 is Spelunky day anyway.

FIFA 14 is only £17 too. I'm sure FIFA usually includes all languages so probably not restricted to Portuguese etc. Tempting.
Edit: not available in my region anyway. Oh well.

I thought that little game or whatever said that Papers Please was gonna be like 3 dollars?
Nice, great to know fellow GAFfer. Now...we split the profit, muahahaha!
No, you had like $20 available (with 4 $5 bills) and you would give it to the guy and when you gave him $10 you'd pass.
It'd probably do relatively well if an extended version were released and priced at, say, $3. Oh, and cards.
I'm surprised Squeenix didn't use the game to encourage the adoption of Steam in Japan.

Ah. I totally misunderstood that.
And Guacamelee day.

The new Worms game finally has a 4-pack which drops the price of each to $14. It's better, but I just paid $3.75 for a Worms game that looks identical.
It's also going to be featured in PAX10. Maybe someone at Valve will take notice.

Wait did the first one ever make it on steam?
I think I've reached a point where I'm pretty much happy with my Steam library as it is. Which means I have almost everything I actually want to play and this amount of games (423) will last me a long, long time.
Of course there are still new releases, which I rarely buy at launch, I still snag something on a sale here and there, but it doesn't really feel like I'm missing something anymore.

No, and the second one is also on Steam Greenlight.

Played Cloudberry Kingdom for 1h, really fun so far.
Yeah, this makes the most sense, really. I didn't mean to point the finger at a programmer, either. I just dislike the common perception that if there's a bug, it's because the tester missed it. I started out in SW development as a tester, so I've got quite a bit of bias, there.
To add to that, I also dislike the perception that because something isn't supported or some feature isn't in the game, the programmers were "lazy". It almost always comes down to time in those cases. As you said, tasks get pushed back to get other higher priority things done.

HL3 isn't one game. It's infinite.
Also let me go dig up all my shitty HL3 jokes, puns, and gifs. They are all so fucking hilarious. I know everyone isn't tired of seeing them!

August is a good buffer until Rome II comes out and then I won't play anything else. Incredibly hyped for it.
I want but won't probably get Guacamelee, Castlevania, Worms and Space Hulk. Personally I think the last two are a bit over-priced.

Lol. It isn't so much when I'm told I did something wrong. I always do something wrong. It is when I can tell that QA is taking pleasure in my suffering.
Yep. Games ship with lots of known bugs. Everything takes time and that is something that is always in limited supply.

Ok Toma. I think Reus is going to be the next game on my backlog I'm going to tackle.

I've also read that there's a problem with six resource items not being in the game (it's believed that the final story missed is supposed to hand them out, since the preceding ones give you three vehicle and three weapon parts), but it's possible this bug has been patched. I'll find out soon enough, I suppose.
In Panau City Financial District there's a bug where you only get 95.5% (100% unchecked) and I have this fucking problem, I can't find the last "stuff" (I don't know what I'm missing) but perhaps it's the bugged water tower! I'll try to find the missing thing!
That is new actually.
Looks like Lords of Football, No Time to Explain, Air Buccaneers, and Deadlight got cards today.

No Time To Explain got cards as well. I guess I'm postponing my Reus playthrough and idle those two games instead.

August 8th = Indie bloodbath.
My wallet isn't ready for the amount of games being released that date. D:
August 8th = Indie bloodbath.
Oh man... Just as I juggled to figure out what I was getting this month. Ah well, what's another $10...

Thanks, good timing I suppose!
Is there a subscriber email or something of the sort? But yay, what timing. Hopefully I can start playing Metro with physx on again.

Great, now I have to CHOOSE between this and spleunky...
I'm not vowing to stop buying games or anything, it's just that I used to think "oh, I really need that game in my Steam library, oh and that one pack, too" and by now I already have most of those games.
You can complete all the settlements in the game. The water tower I mentioned earlier isn't tied to any of them since it's stuck in limbo in a settlement that was never added to the game world but was left in the in-game stats. But, yeah, the cities are awful for the simple fact that you're always left running around for half an hour trying to find something you've missed. A helicopter is handy for finding any water towers that may be perched on rooftops.
