this is how this year's sales end

Love that there are still somehow 4 games on the wishlist.
 
I have interesting question:

Did Steam become a new Valve game? We have gameplay (collecting cards and items, crafting badges), economy (Steam Market), perks (backgrounds and emoticons), only thing that missing is real story.

We create the history buying games on sales, waiting for summer sale arrive, idleing in games just to get cards sell it om the market and buy more games. It's emergent narrative, just wait for the day Gaben will release Steam Simulator based in all the data he gathered all this years.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Awww, so no new cards today? Easy sign that they must be swarmed by all the pre-sale activity!

Or they're swamped getting everything ready for tomorrow's big reveal: EVERY game on Steam now has cards!



(j/k) (or am I?)
 
Keep it simple

Sorry for the size. I've gone through one steam sale and I picked this up quick.
I sent this to the two people I've converted to pc gaming just to make sure they know the rules.

Missing a rule.

"That looks like a pricing error, should I grab it?" Yes.
 
So I finally played Mount and Blade Warband.

Tried the demo and it is awesome. I love the mouse based directional combat. It's at the top of my Wishlist now. Hub based open ended RPG, with huge battles, that I can actually run smoothly? Yeah, that's my kind of game

Is the Napoleonic Wars expanison worth getting? It seems so different from the other M&Bs (guns, artillery, etc)

If a good sale comes up, I'm finally buying Warband

And I'll actually be interested in MP. So if the sales are good, we could join up or something. Is there M&B Neogaf group?

How are RTS elements in the game? In the trailers and reviews, it said you can commandeer battles and be a general

I made a thread about that shit 3 years ago

images are dead since they're on tinypic but here's one rehosted:

lol

having a DS was hard

Hahaha you tell me that, I both a 3DS and a Vita. Thanks god for Digital Downloads.

Pretty awesome. May have a few more keys to giveaway.

Edit: Would some Origin keys be alright to giveaway?

Origin is cool to me right now, I was a little shy at first but then I got me with the Command and Conquers and Mass Effects and Need For Speeds and Battlefields and... Man, EA published so many good games.

Hey jshackles, I just installed Enhanced Steam and it's great! Is there an option to put the prices in Euros? It's the only thing I would add, the rest is fantastic.

So no trading cards today,i hope tommorow will be a glorious day for trading cards


There will be no Summer Sale tomorrow.

When the store updates, there will be only video whose thumbnail displays an orange lambda and number 3.

I think that if a had the choice of summer sale or half life 3 i would choose half life 3.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Pretty awesome. May have a few more keys to giveaway.

Edit: Would some Origin keys be alright to giveaway?

I think for the sake of preventing confusion, just make sure the key is clearly marked as Origin.

Edit: oh. Already done and claimed. Still, good example for anyone else in the future.

I had to do a couple gifs for work and its been a while

Don't worry: after the T2 gifs, who here could hope to stand and challenge you? These creatures are but ants with tiny moralities.
