I'll never get to play Ms Splosion Man then?
Well, actually I'm glad I won't, if I bought it just so a year later I wouldn't be able to play it anymore I'd be pissed.

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.
Awesome! Entered for Dustforce - hope I win!!!
As for GFWL - I wonder if Fable III will ever get it patched out. The presence of both GFWL and Securom is the sole reason I've never purchased it on PC.

Cave story is the amazing little game that I neglected for so, so long.

Nuuvem have come out to say that they will give worldwide keys to everyone who preordered...
Of course I asked them to cancel my preorder, I'm just not having a good day today

That's very cool of them. I hope it doesn't take them too long.

Does it run the same or better than saints row 3 (your gpu + framerate would be nice to know
)Was the shooting and driving at all improved, both were really weak in sr3 especially the shooting.
Also after playing some sr3 coop last week (hadn't played since released) I was kind of shocked at how badly the game has aged graphically, does the new one look a bit more up to date? (hard to tell from your screenshots)
Also does it still suffer from as poor a draw distance and as much lod pop in as sr3
What. You can complete puzzles in multiple ways, with different dolls. Most of the dolls you need aren't very far from the problem either.

Just mentioned it in the SRIV OT, but looks like Nuuvem are honouring international purchases: http://forum.nuuvem.com.br/topic/1587-saints-row-iv-key/?p=16695/
Damn fine of them, considering they really have no reason to. Guess this will give them some great PR with Brazilian gamers though.

Might have something to do with 99.9% of their sales coming from international people looking for a bargain price

Or asking for a refund when they found out that it would be region-locked.

True, but they had every right to turn round and say "Sorry, but we're a Brazilian reseller so it was always a risk" and taken the money with no real issue, and tbh nobody could blame them. And its not like they want to get MORE international buyers, since it just leads to headaches like this.

Toy Soldier has a Steam version now, you can choose.

It's a pretty boring game. The visual concept is good, but their execution was seriously lacking and bland.
The undercutting has gotten nuts. I put up a Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack booster pack, at the time it was $1.53. Now, 24 hours later, it's been undercut all the way down to $0.51. That's just crazy.

holy shit, thanks charlequin for The Basement Collection! i'm so happy i could gift you bad rats <3
No, there hasn't been anyone lowering their price besides me. One hasn't been sold since July 31.

True but even the Steam version of the game uses GFWL

Sounds almost like we'll get two keys.
I thought when you start it you can chose between GFWL and Steamworks?

GFWL deleted by Batman: Arkham City save ;-;
I don't know when I'll go back to it, still kind of devastated. Was really close to the end and did a ton of optional stuff.

Would be awesome if someone could confirm this so I can take it off of my (personal) "oh shit" list.
If true, I suspect it will be really easy for them to patch it out completely in a future update.

Whoa, I won Grimrock. Thank you Charlequin!

Possibly. They way they word it it sounds like any sold up to release will get a ROW key, but they are speaking English as a second language from some of the phrases used so it could be tempting fate twice.
Again, could be a mistranslation. I originally thought that, but it could also mean that they managed to get enough ROW keys to cover pre-orders, then after release they'll start using region locked stock.

listen to the mad man
Modbot policy update: The "my loot" command now reports BOTH what you've won for ModBot, and any unclaimed keys you've offered to ModBot. This will be useful if no one claims a key and you want to go back and nuke it. Or because you can't keep track of all the stuff you're giving away!!!! WOW, so generous! Also useful if you want to repost stuff because it got lost in the shuffle. Remember when you repost keys, generate a new giveaway, don't just quote the original.
Free-for all giveaways of old unclaimed keys!
In accordance with this feature being made available, effective end of September any unclaimed keys that are more than a month old will be given away in a free-for-all. In other words, October 1st, any key submitted before September 1st and not claimed will be given away. The giveaway will be by ModBot. It will have no rules. You will not receive credit for the giveaway. I do keep a debug log and I don't prune the giveaway database, but basically the records attached to the key will be updated to a new giveaway. In general, I estimate that most of these keys will be near-worthless junk (wow, another Origin code for Medal of Honor!!! Just my luck~~~) but it is possible that some stuff of value might be there.
How does this impact you:
- I generated a giveaway but never posted it: The giveaway was still generated. The key will be given away. If the key is still valid and you do not want to give it away anymore, please nuke the key.
- I generated a giveaway, but because no one claimed it I gave it away some other way: No harm, no foul. The free-for-all giveaway will note that some keys may be already activated. If you choose to nuke the keys, thanks.
- I generated a giveaway but now I regret it and want to keep the key and for some reason it's been a month and I still haven't claimed it or sold it but HOW DARE YOU give away my key: Please either nuke the key or PM me and I can nuke all your keys
- I generated a giveaway with an obviously junk key to test stuff LOL: Thanks, you have made extra work for me. But you don't need to do anything.
I hope everyone agrees this is a fair and equitable way to proceed and that this is ample warning. The details of this change are also posted in the ModBot rules thread.
