Can anyone tell me if Half Life 2 is plug and play with the Xbox wired controller? Reading conflicting answers when I google it.

I don't want to go to the hassle of downloading it if I can't just stick in a pad and play it.

Oh and I have problems with my left hand so can't use keyboard and mouse, before anyone shouts at me for wanting to use a controller. Thanks.

So I just bought myself a level 5 Dredmor badge, then put all the backgrounds and emoticons back up for sale. Sold two things and already more than made my money back. Crazy times.

Works just fine with a gamepad.

Ok fellow GAFfers, the little few cards I put on sale were all sold in less than 2 seconds, really.

How can people be that fast? Do they just refresh the Newly listed all the time?

I want to say it does, but it has been a while since I played it.

Right? people are undercutting prizes by so much, it's insane.

The ten cheapest prices of my Ion Assault card ranged from 2,30€ to 30Cent. Which is stupid, why undercut that much? The people who want to upgrade their account level will buy them en masse anyway right after release, they don't care. So I listed mine for 90Cent and it's already gone.

How long does the "Who Posted?" page take to update?
It is still showing what I had before I made a post 12 hours ago.

Edit: Umm, the "Who Posted" page linked in the OP is for the old thread, is it meant to be like that?

So, is Modbot still accepting steam gift urls? Or is there a more official solution now?

And this thread moves way to fast. Went away for a few hours and it adds 5 pages.

That's why during these kinds of sales you wait to see if a game has a special deal (dailies, flash sales) before buying. If it never has a special sale, buy it on the last day as the Summer sale is ending.

Valid point.

Thinking on it though I really have no idea what I will want to buy. I am sure I will see something that I have to get, but nothing sticks out at me right now. Damn backlog

I drew a silly MS Paint comic for a website but I thought SteamGAF might maybe enjoy it a little possibly.

So... which issue? Did you send the entire url? Well, I did manage to send two gifts earlier, so I'm probably going to risk it (of course, since it's the last good gift I have, something will probably go wrong).
Click to expand...

Ah crap! Wasn't aware I had to send the entire url. I sent just the key :/

Such a tool...

Thanks for the info!

There's no way preorders will be discounted during the summer sale, right? I want to preorder The Raven and Shadowrun Returns, but I really don't wanna regret it.
