Strange, Disney going to Disney I guess. Just for that I'm not going to preorder so that I can .... well whatever reason they thought people would preorder a digital game for with no discount or incentive.

Eh honestly I expect every dev/pub to do this in the future to avoid all this stuff of people getting games cheap. Steam just needs to find a better way around prohibiting regional gifting.
Cause as it stands now, games that are region locked = no "gift" button available in countries where the game is cheaper (not in all cases, but in most), and that's just fucked, cause you might wanna just buy the game for a buddy on your same region, but you cant.

I beat him at UNO a long time ago for some tournament they ran a few years back.
Blood Dragon isn't region-locked -- there's one app and one sub. Ducktales has an RU/CIS-specific sub but there's no region info attached to it at the moment.
Edit: Oh, you're referring to the ability to buy it as a gift.
you cant gift it from any CIS country, that's what this guy was telling me and why he asked me to get 2 copies instead of 1
I remember blood dragon being weird about something and I just figured it was similar, maybe im wrong

They put a Gizmoduck or Scrooge hat for TF2, I would buy it no sweat.

Everything's cheaper in Russia. It's because Russia doesn't have very much monies, and some monies is better than no monies.
Yeah:
will the 4pack trick work on it though?
Open two tabs of the Steam Store on your browers
(1) On Tab ONE, add a random item to cart and proceed with checkout WHERE you get to select (Email/Friend/Add to Inventory)
(2) On Tab TWO, add the needed item to cart. At the Cart screen, remove the random item.
(3) Back to Tab ONE, continue with checkout as normal, on the final confirmation screen, the needed item should appear.
It worked for me when I needed to host multiple 4packs

I know, I meant it should be cheaper.
That's the price on the Ukrainian store. The Russian store uses rubles and Ducktales is 299 (~USD$9).

Someone buy my a Russian copy.
Someone in RU/CISland will have to try this as "The current payment method does not match the country of the store" will kick in when confirming what type of gift purchase you'd like to make.

I see lots of you guys buying Duck Tales, is it good? I have doubts about the remake.

Seeing it in person in San Diego - hey Salsa, I went there and you didn't - made me a believer.
The animation is stunning.

So tempted to get Ducktales, Spelunky, Skullgirls and Guacamelee but I already bought Papers, Please and Castlevania Lords of Shadow and I need some cash for Etrian Odyssey 4 and Shin Megami Tensei Soul Hackers. Not like I don't have the money but I really shouldn't be spending this much.
I want it on the Vita... But knowing Capcom...

I know where Salsa is coming from... it's no Trine 2... but it is enough for me.

I really hope there's no microtransactions in Duck Tales

Don't worry, you're getting Senran Kagura.

Ughh, not for me, that jumping animation totally turned me off. I might end up getting it on a sale if it's less than 5.
$1 each time you hop on your walking stick
Shovel Knight is the true new Ducktales anyway
Petey, the Cannon Brawl developer, seems to be updating and replying very quickly on the Steam forum, which is cool. I just hope they don't burn out from reading the mess that the Steam forums tend to be.
They did say that configurable controls should be coming, so yay! There are also some balance patch(es), and maybe new resolutions and vsync upcoming.
It's a clever idea for a game. It quickly sank down the top seller list, but I hope it's at least moderately successful.

So true, for a console game price you can usually get at least 4 steam games.

I played the Cannon Brawl alpha and it was awesome. It's an early release so I think they'll get a second chance at a full launch, with the benefit of months of balance testing and tweaking.
I rather want Ducktales despite some people not liking the graphics. However, a couple of dollars off as a preorder incentive WOULD be nice.
Also I don't think Papers, Please would compete with Spelunky or Guacamelee since they are different genres. Watching a video of a playthrough on youtube, I don't mean to be rude, but...is there more to the game than investigating and stamping the passports? :S

Oh what I wouldn't give for a Steam handheld with Nintendo and Atlus games :/

It's a puzzle game based on looking for tells, so most likely not. The dev has said that the beta (which is what you're seeing online) was more of just a proof of concept, with the main game having more to it.

Except everyone who added me I advertised to them for 7 keys... The price variations were based on different days.

Oh wow. I didn't get to take a shot of it, but on my tour I saw a bunch of photos of Big Picture Mode used as a media player. There was an album view and some basic player options for video. Probably wouldn't be too useful on my main rig but would be pretty hot on an htpc.
I hope the full game more accurately depicts the patriotic benefit of being ruthlessly xenophobic. I really didn't appreciate being second-guessed by "superiors" in the beta for being entirely practical and turning away every foreigner that had even a whiff of criminal intent (as foreigners they all smelled terriible, of course).
Hvae you tried the Papers Please beta/demo? It's free and it will take you about 20 minutes to complete. Try it and see wether or not it is your thing. I found it surprinsigly compelling.
With the news that Left 4 Dead 3 is being worked on, what do you think Valve will call the fourth game in the series?
Some ideas:
- Left 4 Dead: The Fourth
- 4 Left 4 Dead
- Left 4 Hats
- Half-Life 3
It should work out fine.
I wonder if there's an option to broadcast that info to your friends list in a similar manner to how your status changes when in-game.
So I guess the Spotify integration will be bundled with this update.
I'm not sure why you're quoting this post again, and ignoring my most recent one but this is yet another lie, you made 3 price changes in a single day as I've already shown here

I'm probably not going to get Ducktales at first because it's $15 for like 6 levels. It really is just a remastered version of the original. Salsa is right that Shovel Knight will probably be better, though that doesn't come out till winter so for right now Rogue Legacy would probably be a more interesting alternative for that money.

I feel the same, also Disney's Magical Quest.
The game is short? How disappointing.
You know what needs to be "remastered" next? The MegaDrive version of TailSpin.
That's actually good to know, thanks. I never played the original and didn't realize it was so short. I'll keep it on the wishlist for now and grab the other upcoming stuff.
