It's standalone, uninstall safely.

If it wasn't standalone, it would tell him anyway when trying to remove.
i'm aware you need to own human revolution, but i just meant standalone in the sense of can i run it without hr installed. but yeah seems it doesn't need the original's files and launches separately, that works for me. uninstalled.
The "DLC" is quite big. I believe you don't need the base game for it to run.
I know what you were asking. What I meant is that, since it's DLC and not a standalone release, uninstalling Human Revolution but leaving The Missing Link installed doesn't actually delete any data. If you check the folder in steamapps you'll see it's still ~8.28GB.
Edit: I think Steam may have stubbed its toe on something. I just uninstalled TML yet HR's installation folder is still sitting in steamapps despite neither being installed.
actually for me it looks like it did delete the base game data, my human revolution folder is gone, i just have a "dxhrml" folder that's 1.95 gigs
Yeah, see my edit.
is anyone else having a problem with steam at the moment?
I tried to update kerbal space program but it wouldn't update so i thought there was something wrong with it... so i stupidly deleted the game....
then i tried downloading peggle and realised that didn't download too
basically cant install anything at the moment...

Are you sure the HDD isn't full?
Edit: If it's an issue of the download stalling, you can try switching content servers. I've noticed on the odd occasion Steam's download speed gradually slowing to a crawl, but switching servers always kicked it back into gear.
ah good point... but just checked i've got 30gb left
really? that sucks
It's almost as if Valve doesn't like dirty idlers.

Are the latest official Nvidia drivers safe to install? I'm having a few graphical errors with Bioshock Infinite and I'm hoping a driver update will resolve it.

Does anyone know why the original Call Of Juarez has suddenly vanished from the U.S. store and if it is coming back?
speaking of uninstalling games it sucks they announced the scorchers dlc like a week and a half after i beat and uninstalled rage, who the hell would have thought they were going to announce dlc a year later for fucking rage. it'll take about 50 minutes to download the 25 gigs but still, annoys me on principle that i'll have to redownload it when i want to play the dlc
Strange. It just got cards a few days ago, though, so it'll probably be back

I was hoping for some movement that never occurred during the sale and figured I may as well grab it now. Of course it is now more desirable than ever now that I cannot have it.

Do you mean by search? Because games often don't show up for some reason.

That's the newer CoJ, he meant the much older game.
This one: http://store.steampowered.com/app/3020/
oh, worth mentioning: The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is a 2K game, that means it's $35 in South America instead of $45.
feel free to send me a pm if you wanna get it cheaper. Did it for some with Bioshock Infinite back when it came out. Paypal fees to other regions can be a hassle but $36-$37 should cover it? last time the gift thing didnt work here cause we don't have the option, but maybe it changed, idk, we'll try
bottom line: it's cheaper here

Mok, well looks like it is still available in Australia for $9.95. If you want to get it I could help you out.
In before "But Dunder has it for cheaper"
But good on you for doing that. I'll be waiting for many a review though given its history.
Thanks ill give that a go when I get home. Just popped out for now. It basically stops at the part where it says "preparing game files for installation". Seems steam is working for everyone though.
yeah but I aint selling it for a profit/making money off it
in all seriousness I think dunder closed shop? not sure
Even cheaper in russia, but region locked
. Anyway i'll wait, paying that much for a game that could be just another duke nukem forever in waiting seems stupid.yeah but I aint selling it for a profit/making money off it
in all seriousness I think dunder closed shop? not sure
Above statement relevant, dunder will not sell this game because of region locked.
Not the case.
I believe so fellow GAFfer, he made a post in here. It's a shame because there was a lot of GAFfers doing business with him but I guess those positive feedbacks were the final straw since he did not had the time to update it constantly. Oh well.
Also, good morning, y'all.
Best part about buying cheap dollar games if you live in the EU...
...they get extra cheap because a dollar is even less in euro
Dawg is back! Welcome back fellow GAFfer.
the CIS version at least does seem to have a different id (29405), whereas the one here seems to be the same as the US (29404)
BioInf was the same but it's listed as a worldwide (i.e. rest-of-world) pre-purchase in my subscription history. I don't know where he sources his games but they're not the RU/CIS-specific versions publishers so often like to offer.

Gamersgate have:
Awesomenauts $2.50 (cards) http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-AWESOME/awesomenauts
Call of Juarez: The cartel $4.99 http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-COJC/call-of-juarez-the-cartel
Scribblenauts $7.50 (cards?) http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-SCRIBU/scribblenauts-unlimited
Grid 2 $30 http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-GRID2/grid-2-
thats interesting
in my experience I just know that having the same id number means you get the exact same game. Both in terms of regional availability and DLC and whatnot. Maybe it still registers something different when the purchase goes through.

FInally a Borderlands 2 sale.
Wanted to get the Cartel to pad the library, but paypal doesn't want me to buy it. "Unfortunately, this transaction has been declined after we found a risk associated with your payment. We are therefore not able to complete this particular transaction." Then why did you put a hold on my money!
Would have been £1.59.

I can tell you for a fact that his source is RU/CIS.
