Everyone needs to go vote for Broforce on Greenlight, looks so good.

Robrocop, Rambro, Commanbro. #dead.

Tried the demo and instantly gave it the thumbs-up.

Is anyone going to be playing the tiny tina BL2 dlc today?

Daily Deal: Retro City Rampage - $3.75 (75% off).

 

[RionaaM]

For this week the cards will be on Wednesday to coincide with the whole Summer Seal.

Also, yes, today is Tuesday

Yeah, that's probably it.

My non Steam game icons keep disappearing from my Installed list when I restart my PC. Halp!

 

[nexen]

damnit.

 

[Beth Cyra]

Has anyone tried out the Akaneiro Demon Hunters F2P version? It looks like it could be a fun little game, but I don't know if it's really worth 9.99 when they have a F2P version.

Are they in an external hard drive?

Are they in an external hard drive?

I only have internal HHDs (3 of them). Some games are on my SSD, some on my games dedicated HDD.

Never knew Zen Studios made an Angry Birds-esque game...

Everything about them seems very... not zen.

Retro City Rampage adds Mod support and an enhanced graphics mode with dynamic soft shadows. http://retrocityrampage.com/20130625.php

No Summer Sale on Thursday confirmed

I told you

Or do you think it'll happen on Friday/Sat? lol

 

[tjohn86]

Retro City Rampage will likely end up in a humble bundle or something right?

Does anybody knows how I could send money from paypal in a way that the receipt doesn't had to pay a fee?

 

[Milchmann]

Retro City Rampage Steam key and DRM free for the same price: http://www.retrocityrampage.com/buy.php

Some regions do not support it. There should be an option saying to friends/family if that is not there pay enough to cover the fees.

Thanks for this! Glad I checked here before biting on the Steam deal.

 

[YianGaruga]

Will we get new cards today AND tomorrow?

EDIT: Looks like it has been already answered? Only wednesday this week?

There's an option to send money as "gift" but if you or the other person happen to live where that option isn't available, you need to pay that fee!

Edit: Beaten

Everything about them seems very... not zen.

Maybe flinging objects around is considered cathartic and a path to zen, or something.

I don't know then :/

I believe it's a known issue for which there is no current fix. There is a workaround which may work for you, as detailed on the Steam forums:

"Navigate to your Steam installation folder, then to "userdata\<number>\config". There, make the "shortcuts.vdf" file Read-only.
Only trick is you need to uncheck that option if you want to save any changes to your current list of non-Steam games. " {Sluimerstand}

 

[Zia]

Don't know what to do without new trading cards. I ate a burrito. Now I'm wistfully staring out the window. A scene out of a Cymbalta ad.

They explicitly stated in the update that it would only be Wednesday, and not the normal Tuesday and Thursday release.

This means all the features you all have been helpful in testing are going to be made available to everyone on Steam. We'll be adding Trading Cards to several games that day as well (instead of the normal Tuesday & Thursday release).

Are you exiting out of Steam before you shut your PC down? Not doing that seems to cause it for most people.

Lol that's stupid, I send some guy 0.53 and he only received 0.2 I tried to send the difference of 0.33 and he only got 1 cent


Now I feel like a latin scum

 

[Tak3n]

Dirt showdown. Dirt 2 and dirt 3 are 9.99 for all 3 at gamefly

Any opinions

I don't know then :/

Thanks anyway =)

Sounds good, I'll try that. Thanks a bunch.

Last time I didn't. Maybe that is it. (I'm having a weird deja vu now about asking about this issue). I'll do that and check.

 

[Blablurn]

oh, and i thought the trading card release day is today

 

[73V3N]

If Retro City Rampage gets cards tomorrow, I will probably regret not buying it...

Dirt showdown. Dirt 2 and dirt 3 are 9.99 for all 3 at gamefly

Dirt 2 was pretty good. Lacked a good amount of rally races, though. Something which, from what I've heard, Dirt 3 fixes. Showdown is pretty lame because it's basically 100% dudebro races.
Only Showdown can be activated on Steam by the way.

Dirt 2 is amazing, the other 2 not so much.

You could get them all for free and some people didn't like their accounts being "tainted" by them.

No Summer Sale on Thursday confirmed

Maybe I'm misremembering but haven't sales typically started on thursday, sometimes in the afternoon? I also think sales have started in the morning with the mid weeks running until the afternoon. Could be wrong though.

 

[Dice]

Do not grasp for a high score. Simply see the score. Do not desire to activate multiball or worry about the ball falling in the pit. Just experience the flipping of the pinball.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Man does it feel good to be so disappointed by Valve's last couple of sales that I don't give a damn about when the next starts.

 

[morningbus]

Like, I want to do my shtick, but Stump asked so nicely. =/

 

[Overdoziz]

One day we will get a proper Colin Mcrae rally racing game once again. One day...

 

[Grief.exe]

Maybe I'm misremembering but haven't sales typically started on thursday, sometimes in the afternoon? I also think sales have started in the morning with the mid weeks running until the afternoon. Could be wrong though.

The mid week sales will always end at 10 am Pacific Time if there is a major sale starting that day.

Anyone disagree? I'll PM Stump and have him change the title.

 

[Hawkie]

oh, and i thought the trading card release day is today

Trading Cards out of beta Wednesday June 26th at 11am PDT.

 

[Delusibeta]

It's usually Wednesdays, AFAIK. It's probably a safe bet that it's not happening this week.

 

[nexen]

IANAB but I thought zen could be found in any human endeavor. I thought it was like 'flow', so video games would be particularly good for it.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Like, I want to do my shtick, but Stump asked so nicely. =/

such a fun killer

 

[KarmaCow]

So why did people think it would be Thursday, were there developer leaks or was it just based on past sale start times?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

So it could be on Friday then, right?

 

[Cheddahz]

Isn't Day Z suppose to be coming out this week?
