That's because if you use grid view your computer would crash due to picture loading.
Grid view is for real men, not Scorseses.
The Max Payne Complete Bunde deal on GMG was tempting but nottoday.gif. Still too many games to play. In other news, after weeks deliberating (not really) I decided to play HR before the original Deus Ex.
Oh man this sucks. Avalanche, you had one job!
Same here.
bro do u even
I assume it's supposed to increase the percentage, but, for whatever reason, isn't doing so in my case.
same here, but ill sometimes switch to grid view just to ogle. like a hoarder looks at his boxes of old newspapers with pride
Be still my beating heart.
If they don't go too retarded on the price, I'll double dip... if nothing else to show them some of us still want that sequel!
Oh man! Hope this happens. I never got around to playing this game but I remember being really jazzed for it.
I bought this on GOG yonks ago but haven't bothered to install it. On a related note, now that Hasbro has a few games on Steam, I hope it eventually brings over Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights and Icewind Dale.
I still have my original discs (and I really need to finish it!), but I definitely wouldn't mind having it on Steam.

Finished Ys I+II today, I picked the whole series during the Summer Sale. Ys I was okay but it could have been better without the insane amount of backtracking in the tower near the end of the game. It was even worse for me since
. Also, I didn't have any problems with the combat system when dealing with regular enemies but with some bosses it was a mess, I just ran around hoping for the best (the boulder and final boss were the worst).
Ys II did a lot of stuff better, there wasn't so much backtracking but it was still present (especially at the Shrine) and you can also teleport to important locations. Boss fights are also a huge improvement too, most of the bosses must be killed with ranged attacks which makes combat less of a mess but even the few bosses that requires melee attacks are real fights and not runnin' around hoping to land some lucky blows.
I'm going to play Oath in Felghana and Origins as soon as I finish FEZ, I heard they are a lot better (I wish they kept the 16-bit graphics though but that's just me).
when I arrived near the top of the tower, I realized I couldn't go further without opening the prison cell ... which required an item that I missed at floor 2. I almost headbutted my screen D:

I know I was trying to pawn off Painkiller yesterday but now I'm reading about it and the game sounds pretty fun. I enjoyed Bulletstorm, I'd probably like Painkiller? Game still holds up?
Yeah, same. (re; having the OG discs, I finished it twice)
It's really sad it never really got the attention it deserved, since apparently all the Ion Storm advertising budget went to making us Romero's bitch or something.
The story was great and the gameplay was pretty good too, but where it shone were the world and the characters that lived in it.

Combat is really really sketchy though.
Well, if you're not going to learn even the basics and shrug off the game as being too hard... there's not much else to be discussed here.
Air skin is the new hotness Jase
Bloody hipsters and their ever-changing trends.

The only things I don't like about air are that it doesn't show my my wallet funds and that its a slower then even the default skin, but that overlay is gorgeous.

To buy or not to buy Obllivion, that is the question.
Has this been taken care of yet?
What are your opinions on Morrowind and Skyrim?
I basically only use the client for Library, Friends, and viewing profiles.
Then Enhanced Steam for everything else.
It seems to have similar speeds to pixel vision to me.

Now i gotta wait for JaseC to sell his, or should I go into an undercutting fight with him?
Undercut, sell for $5.

You get more money for them. (And you can craft a foil badge)
They're worth more. So most people sell them. Otherwise you can collect them and craft a full set of foil cards into a foil badge.

Maybe I should do something similar. I have always thought steam (client) needed the features of enhanced steam anyway.
Air was your first skin right?
Maybe skins are inherently slower than the default client. I have no idea, I've been on pixel vision for so long.

PixelVision is way too cluttered, love my Metro skin.
Regarding foil badges: If you have a lvl 4 normal badge can you craft lvl 5 foil badge straight away? Or are the two completely separate?

I haven't played any Elder Scrolls game ever.

Completely seperate, foil badges are only max lvl 1.

Yeah it was my first skin. It very well may be the case that I'll find all skins slower then the default client until I get used to the skin speed.
Morrowind is the best one then, even though it's the oldest. There's a lot of graphics mods that make it at least as pretty as Oblivion, if not prettier, and it's just the better game. Skyrim is the next best thing, but more expensive due to newness.
Oblivion is rather shit, really.

Screwed up my left hand playing it yesterday.

The honorable thing to do is set the same price as JaseC. Then you can both watch idiots undercut you and commiserate.
