Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
It's not an isolated issue. From the Gog thread:
Feeling a lot less confident with my purchase now. I wish there was a way to know how legit a site is and if they'll give you a Steam key.

Just throwing it out there, but if anyone wants a trading card beta I can hook you up.
Also, Rogue Legacy will be released on Steam on June 27th. This is a good candidate for game of the year, folks. Also, pre-order it on roguelegacy.com on or before this Friday, to receive it for 5 dollar less (you pay $10, regular price: $15), get the soundtrack for free (really good soundtrack too), drm free- and Steam copy of the game as well.
And according to Phil Fish 95% of the sales through Humble Store goes to the developers, so it's the best way to support your fellow developers.

I see. I was concerned that it's about two weeks until release and there's no sign of it at all in the store but if the discount would be less than or, at best, match 25% for the launch then I'll go with the GMG deal which has a Steam key anyway.

Well, that looks pretty cool.
Give the demo a shot, it is a fantastic game and well worth the $10. I put about 6 hours into the demo alone...

Bah the Humble Store makes it too easy to buy things. I hit place order without even thinking about it.
You didnt PM me your steam ID. If you do that I will then send you it.
I didn't recognize the name of the game until clicking through to the site, but this is the Ghosts & Goblins-esque roguelike where, when you die, you play as your children who are born with conditions like dyslexia, colorblindness, dwarfism, etc.
Thanks for the heads up.
They unlocked it.
Voted for it the second I noticed it on Greenlight, had I the money I would get the pre-order without hesitation. Demo is available at IndieDB which I'm just about to start up, looks amazing.
If you have the latest drivers (320.18) for your graphics card, you should probably roll it back ASAP. There have been a ton of problems with it, as seen here. Some people saying it has even been frying their cards up.
Crap! will roll back and try later i guess. Thanks.
How does something like this happen? Who are those 2 people?
Probably they tried to manipulate the market
My mind is playing with me, I thought it was Rogue Galaxy that's going to be released on Steam
Probably one user having 2 accounts, and just wanted to transfer money.
I bet we all did.
A great way to give free money to Valve
Only way to move wallet funds, I think.
yeah, a friend just gifted it to me and that's been my experience as well
game looks amazing tho
Yeah I didn't realize it was SSAA and maxed it at first. I brought it down to 2X and it runs much smoother.

The AA solution and draw distance were pretty big killers on my rig, after a few updates it got better but I still chug in most locations. Will probably not see a perma 60FPS til the next rig.
The one deal that is tempting me.
Haha, I am lagging behind by a fair bit. I doubt I'll hit 1k again.
At 75% off, it's unlikely to ever be cheaper outside of an inclusion in an indie bundle.

New cards tomorrow!

Should be today (Thursday). Are you still on Wednesday?
Hahaha. And now you own the vast majority of what's on Steam. Oh the irony. Just imagine if you were alleviated of your quibbles earlier?
If Mark of the Ninja is included in an indie bundle, it'll probably be as the "beat the average" incentive anyway.
It's the best 2D stealth game Klei ever made. All it's missing are cards.
Problem here is that my desktop broke, and now I'm stuck with my mom's old laptop. Even if I bought it now I wouldn't be able to play it until I'm able to make my new pc. Which as of this moment has no date in the near future.

Hope cards for Thomas Was Alone come out soon, I want to replay the game but I'm waiting for cards.
I'm hoping they come out soon so I can play the game at all.
It might be able to run on her laptop? I mean, it ran on a 360.
But, and I'll probably get banned for saying this, there's no sense buying a game just because it's on sale if you're not likely to play it before the next time it goes on sale. Mark of the Ninja will probably be this cheap again in the summer sale, and again in the winter sale, and probably once or twice in the meantime. It's not one of those "white whales" like, say, Magicka.
It's doubtful that it will. I guess I could try running a game similar to it that I have on my steam list, but it's a somewhat old laptop. Plus that's pretty much what I figured.
It rather annoys me that I didn't get "the bug" until last year's Summer Sale. It's depressing to think of all the games I missed the boat on.
Looking at my store transaction history, the amount of items I bought in 2012 alone bested those bought throughout the ~3.25 years prior by a factor of 3. (Surprisingly, I bought more in 2011 than I thought I did.)
Dishonored is cheap on Gamersgate UK

I think there a lot of people in the same boat. I hadn't bothered with Steam after 'finishing' HL2" from back in around 2006 on a now old and lost account. It wasn't until during a long night of overtime at work where one of the lads setup a Left4Dead LAN session that it grabbed my curiosity again.
That first crimbo sale of 2010 I went nuts and bought about a third of my subs just in that 2 week period (82 items from the Paradox Complete Pack helped fill that out). It's amazing to think back then that there was only just shy of 2,000 items available on Steam but now that number is through the roof.
Can imagine there's going to be a lot of giddy folks in here experiencing there first Steam sale next month.
I just recalled I dreamed of playing Dishonored last night (never actually played it, weird) and I kept dying in the game, also there was a bug which made the main character invisible. What does that mean shrink-GAF?
