We both sold our souls to Gaben a long time ago. I've already resigned myself to let Gaben win, I just want to beat my buddy.

Jim Sterling gave SRIV a 9.5. I still have SR2 and SR3 to get through, but that's something to look forward to. Maybe in a future Humble whoever-owns-SR-next Bundle.
Since when does retail Riddick register on Steam?
My retail Riddick is DRM'd up the wazoo.
Saints Row IV
Score: 7.3
With its recycled map and wildly overpowered abilities, playing Saints Row IV feels like a lot like enabling god-like cheat codes in Saints Row The Third and going nuts. Its ridiculous story, goofy characters, self-aware humor, and amazing character editor make it all work, especially for those of us whove played the previous games and can appreciate its in-jokes. But its appeal is shortened by the ludicrous speed at which we can zip across it and grow tired of its lack of challenge.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Score: 9.3
Them marketing dollars.

I remember buying the old abes odyssey games on steam a few years back, and they wouldn't work on windows 7 no matter what I tried. I asked for a refund and steam basically told me to go fuck myself and its not their problem. I tried downloading them again and playing them and at least their working now.

Gosh, I'm really at a loss. 450+ games on my library, new PC, new monitor... and I have no idea what to play. I swear I was staring at my library, not knowing what to install first. And, no, don't tell me "just install everything" 
Guess I'll continue where I left off on E.D.F.
It must be work, I never had this happening to me. I have the cash to buy the games I want but, then, turns I just can't sit to play them and when I do, I have no idea what to pick first!
This must be a serious case of Steamtitis...

JaseC's giveaway might have something to do with it ;-)
Damn SR4 is getting stellar reviews, its going to be hard to not get this what with nuuvems good deal at the moment, but my backlog is looking directly at me...

Free games? Where?
Do you know which Riddick is steamworks? Obviously I'd rather have Assault On Dark Athena but I just want to make sure it's not just Butcher Bay with steamworks.
No! Don't buy the game at all, its a very bad iteration of Castlevania.
If you want a great Castlevania game, check out Symphony of the Night, Dawn/Aria of Sorrow, or Order of Ecclesia.
Riddick is not Steamworks, that was false information.

have you tried dota 2?
Thanks. But, it was a pre-ordered game and I did request before release date. I'm sure I'm still SOL.
Should get Barry ZuckerkornBusted giftbot distribution center?
He's very good

Buy 450 games and play a free one, makes sense.

Question about Early Access games:
When they go full fledged and out of alpha/beta, do they reappear in the new releases?

Página dos.
Nope, I have automatic debit set up on my credit cards, and even then I always control how much I'm spending over the month. So no, I wasn't surprised to see the amount I had to pay.anyone else just get their first post-summersale credit card statement?
I am also not surprised that I still haven't touched 90% of the stuff I bought during the sale.
I don't think any of them have gone out of alpha yet, have they? So I guess the answer is "nobody knows"
I own the boxed version of Cryostasis cause im awesome.
edit: Some games deserve a box copy to be displayed on your shelf.
That makes sense. Bleh. Not that I don't have other things to play in the meantime, but I'd been hoping for it to drop a little sooner than that. Ah well.
The world really needs more space combat/trading games. (Hell, I'd take more first person space combat games. Just give me something where I can fly a spaceship.)
That is actually a good question. There really is no precedence for that since the Early Access program is so new.
You should. I received my refund for Cloudberry Kingdom after it was released.

I was thinking of getting The Bureau over Saints Row, but with these reviews, I'm thinking that I'll wait until the former's reviews start coming out.

I don't think there were recycled levels, but the campaigns are always so damn similar.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Fair enough (and to further clarify, my tone was meant more jokingly rather than the dickish Dad tone it probably reads as). I use my credit card almost exclusively for those exact reasons, too. But it's important to maintain the mindset that, even though it isn't due for a month, it is still your money that you're spending.
Basically, treat your credit card like a debit a card.
I see people malign credit cards here too much. They can be used to your advantage if you approach them with the correct mindset. I get between 300 and 400 dollars every year in reward points I can use on Amazon -- just for using my credit card normally and responsibly.

I'm sure they have, but modbot is currently resting
I think we might have killed Modbot. :s

It was recategorized as Early Access when the categorization was introduced.
I thought Don't Starve was released before the Early Access program went live.
I don't remember it being in that section or having a banner above the page. I could be forgetting though.

Thanks. I'll keep patiently waiting.

I love the smell of a new thread.
Ah, thanks! That explains why I couldn't find it on the various steamworks lists. My saga continues.........
Priced the same as any other big release?

I really liked the daily deals. Cool while it lasted.

Oh my, I had too many of those.
Its checkpoints occasionally did put me in front of enemy guards with no chance of escaping undetected. While I was doing no kill/detection run! That meant I had to restart the level entirely.
I suggested Klei to implement similar save system like Deus Ex: HR had where you got a choice between loading latest autosave or the one before that. Hopefully they listened to me.

I get hundreds of hours out of every COD I buy. $60 seems like a fair price to me.
We all do
