I already installed that version but both of them keep crashing. when I launch Lost Planet EC Colonies just pops up a black window and inmmediately it crashes displaying a "Lost Planet has stopped working" error windoe
Yep, W8 x64, but I already did that with no luck man
With the explicit compatibility settings?
I don't know what else to tell you then, sorry.
This is why I hate GFWL.

I'm almost done downloading this game, unfortunately I don't own Win8. If I however run into the same problems and if I magically fix it, I'll let you know.

DMC Devil May Cry better be $20 on Steam Sale and Dishonored better be $15

Probably the best advice.

Yeah, I'm not looking for a dedicated gaming laptop. Looking for something that I can use for school and home, but this time around I care about gaming. But as long as I can run games like The Forest or Miasmata or even AAA games at just medium settings, I'd be happy. Is that capable with any of those specs?

Any particular reason you're after a laptop? General space issues, want to be able to play on the go, etc. Gaming on a laptop can be kind of a pain especially in the price ranges you've got there.
EDIT: Answered above.

If you are looking into PC gaming, you should look into building your own computer.
If it works out for you, this is the best, and cheapest way, to get into the hobby.
You also have your old laptop for general internet use, convenience, and the power to play indie games on the road.

Thanks, you saved me the trouble of posting that. Though I don't really know if both keys work on Steam or not. I thought they did, but some people in the previous thread said they didn't.
If anyone buys it, I'd like them to try removing some of the dashes in it, to leave it like this: XX1XXXX11XXXX1XX-1X
Playstation 2 is still your best bet for gaming, but there are GAF threads for PC-building and laptop-selecting if you choose to ignore my sage advice.

I bought a latptop 2 years ago for 500 and is better than those 4. Keep looking for better deals

Try the gaming laptop thread for dedicated info.

Need a laptop, not a desktop. I commute between home and school, the local library, vacation.
Like I said, as long as I can do medium or even just low settings on the bigger indie games like The Forest, I'd be satisfied

I guess I should be looking specs, rather than the laptops. I don't know anything about the differences between the different CPUs and GPUs. So I guess the i3 and i5 are the better CPUs for non-gaming laptops?
What about GPUs? AMD or NVIDIA, other?
What about GPUs? AMD or NVIDIA, other?
It is really a case by case basis, both AMD and Nvidia are solid choices.
The model number really changes everything, and with laptops they are pretty strange.
You would think an 8830 that is available in one of your laptops would be a good choice. In all likelihood, there are probably 400 and 500 series cards that outperform that model.
How do you check the ID again?

I have a feeling the value will shoot up.
If Valve reveals that they are not all that interesting or desirable, the value probably won't decrease too much. They will be useful for something.
I wouldnt go nuts. Just wanted to have 1 to not be left out, but I doubt it's something that results in you making whatever money you spend back

Happy Birthday dude! I'm the same age (born on May actually) and I welcome you into the 22's!
Thanks bro!
#Team22I just booted up LP CE and it works fine for me. Win8 64bit here
Too bad dell doesnt sell those Alienware M11x's anymore in their outlet site, seems perfect for you.
Basically yeah. I crafted one and bought one, just to cover my bases.
but it increases your inventory count
Dishonored was $15 less than 3 weeks ago in a bundle along with other Bethesda game of your choice. It's a shame you missed that.

I didn't miss that bundle actually. I actually didn't need any of those games besides Dishonored though...
Eugh, They Bleed Pixels has strayed too far from "hard" to "needlessley frustrating" for me.
Some going for that to happen during Chapter 2.
Any particular reason I should keep going? Considering just listing my cards at this point to reclaim some of the already very little I spent on it, which is something at least.

Been going through my Steam library looking at possible things to play. Are Rage and Bulletstorm worth downloading?

Bulletstorm is a great game

Bulletstorm is worth downloading before they take down GFWL servers for good.
Bulletstorm yes, Rage didn't care for it.
woo and indeed hoo

I know you have said that you're not wanting a desktop but have you considered keeping your existing laptop for general, non/limited gaming use and getting a desktop primarily for gaming? Forgive me if this is really not what you are looking to do but you would get far more bang for you buck with a desktop than a laptop so it would be a shame to rule this scenario out of hand.

Opposite for me. Bulletstorm was a little funny and over the top, but it eventually became as derivative as the games it was making fun of. Rage is fantastic if you stop playing around 8 hours in.
Bulletstorm is absolutely worth playing.

Unless you buy an actual gaming laptop, don't go in with the expectation you'll be able to play anything other than indie games/2D stuff.
If you want to game on a laptop don't mess around. You'll only be disappointed.
Anybody trading mystery cards? I have 2 extras of 27, looking for 21, 22, 25, 26, 28 & 29.
You can add me here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/BahaFS/

Dammit, I have an extra 27 too of course
Bulletstorm is a fun game if you can get past the over the top juvenile humor. (I could and had a blast)
Rage is basically the same 4 maps, except the second time you go through them, you're running them backwards! Oh, and the whole thing is padded with shitty driving.
